Oxidative conversion of methane and methanol on M/Al<Subscript>2</Subscript>O<Subscript>3</Subscript>/cordierite structured metal oxide catalysts (m = Ni,Cu, Zn)

A study was carried out on the properties of Ni/Al₂O₃ and Cu-ZnO/Al₂O₃ composites supported on ceramic honeycomb monoliths made from synthetic cordierite in the carbon dioxide conversion of methane and the partial oxidation of methanol. The structured nickel-alumina catalysts are significantly more efficient than the conventional granulated catalysts. The improved working stability of these catalysts was achieved by adjusting the acid-base properties of the surface by introducing sodium and potassium oxides, which leads to inhibition of surface carbonization. The hydrogen yield was close to 90% in the partial oxidation of methanol with a stoichiometric reagent ratio in the presence of the Cu-ZnO/Al₂O₃/cordierite catalyst. A synergistic effect was found, reducing the selectivity of CO formation in the presence of the Cu-ZnO catalyst relative to samples derived from the individual components Cu and ZnO. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i éksperimental’naya Khimiya, Vol. 43, No. 5, pp. 299–306, September–October, 2007.     

碱助剂对完全液相-热解法CuZnAl催化合成低碳醇性能的影响

采用完全液相技术结合热解方法制备了固定床用CuZnAl催化剂,研究表明,该方法能保留完全液相技术赋予催化剂的特殊性能,可以发展成为将完全液相技术拓展于固定床催化剂的通用方法.在所制催化剂中引入碱助剂同样可以增加C₂₊醇的选择性,但主要不是异丁醇,与现行常规方法制备的催化剂不同.通过对催化剂进行XRD、H₂-TPR、NH₃-TPD-MS、BET等表征,结果表明,不同碱助剂对催化剂的作用方式和影响程度不同,使得催化剂中Cu物种的存在形式和数量、催化剂表面的酸碱性和量以及孔道结构存在差异,进而对催化剂性能产生影响.     

Synthesis of Higher Alcohols via Syngas on Cu/Zn/Si Catalysts. Effect of Polyethylene Glycol Content

Cu/Zn/Si catalysts with different polyethylene glycol (PEG) content were prepared by a complete liquid-phase method, and characterized by XRD, H₂-TPR, N₂-adsorption, and XPS. The influence of PEG content on the higher alcohols synthesis from syngas was investigated. The results showed that addition of PEG can influence the texture and surface properties of the catalysts, and therefore affect their activity and product distribution. With an increase in PEG content, BET surface area, Cu crystallite size and surface active ingredient content of the catalysts first increased and then decreased, the CO conversion had similar variation tendency. However, the pore volume and pore diameter of the catalyst increased, and the binding energy of the active component and the content of Cu₂O decreased, which resulted in higher catalyst selectivity towards higher alcohols. The highest C²⁺OH selectivity in total alcohols was 60.6 wt %.     

焙烧温度对K改性Ag-Fe/ZnO-ZrO2催化剂结构和CO加氢合成低碳混合醇醚性能的影响

采用并流共沉淀法在不同焙烧温度下制备K改性Ag-Fe/ZnO-ZrO₂催化剂,考察不同焙烧温度对催化剂CO加氢合成低碳混合醇醚反应性能的影响。通过N₂物理吸附(N₂-adsorption)、X射线衍射(XRD)、氢气程序升温还原(H₂-TPR)、一氧化碳程序升温脱附(CO-TPD)等手段对催化剂进行表征。结果表明,250 ℃焙烧的催化剂,由于焙烧温度较低,表面尚未形成足够多的活性位,未能达到最佳的催化性能;300 ℃焙烧的催化剂,其CO转化率最高、醇醚选择性较高,醇醚时空产率达到最大值。随着焙烧温度进一步升高,CO转化率逐渐降低,醇选择性先降低后增大,二甲醚(DME)选择性逐渐增大,醇醚时空产率逐渐降低。催化剂性能主要与其比表面积、还原性能、所含银铁复合物分散度及CO吸脱附性能有关,即比表面积较大、易于被还原、银铁复合物分散度较高以及较多的CO吸脱附活性位,有利于催化剂CO加氢转化。催化剂表面活性位对CO的非解离吸附强度降低,有利于醇醚产物的生成;而对CO的解离吸附强度增强,则不利于烃类产物的生成。     

热处理时间对CuZnAl催化剂合成C2+OH性能的影响

采用完全液相法在不同热处理时间下制备了CuZnAl催化剂,利用X射线光电子能谱（XPS）、X射线衍射（XRD）、H₂程序升温还原（H₂-TPR）、NH₃吸附-脱附（NH₃-TPD-MS）和N₂物理吸附-脱附等方法对其结构进行了表征分析,并在浆态床反应器上对其催化合成气制C₂₊OH的性能进行了研究。研究发现,延长热处理时间增强了催化剂中Cu和Al物种之间的相互作用力,改变了其中Cu⁺的量,从而影响Cu⁺-Cu⁰活性位的协同作用。同时,热处理时间的延长减少了催化剂的表面酸量,增大了孔容和孔径;催化剂表面较少的弱酸位及较大孔容和孔径均有利于C₂₊OH的生成。热处理时间为7 h时所制备的CuZnAl催化剂表现出了优良的低碳醇合成催化活性,CO转化率和总醇中C₂₊OH的质量分数分别达到了38.1%和65.9%。     

Catalysis for One‐step Synthesis of Dimethyl Ether from Hydrogenation of CO

In this paper, a new catalyst system Cu‐Mn‐(M)/γ‐Al₂O₃ was developed for the directly synthesis dimethyl ether (DME) from synthesis gas in a fixed‐bed reactor. The catalysts with different n (Cu) : n (Mn) ratios, several promoter M (M is one of Zn, Cr, W, Mo, Fe, Co or Ni) were prepared and tested. The results showed the catalysts have a high conversion of CO and a high DME selectivity. The DME yield in tail gas reached 46.0% (at 63.27% conversion of CO) at 2.0 MPa, 275°C, 1500 h^?1 with the Cu₂Mn₄Zn/γ‐Al₂O₃ catalyst.     

Supported Intermetallic PdZn Nanoparticles as Bifunctional Catalysts for the Direct Synthesis of Dimethyl Ether from CO‐Rich Synthesis Gas

The single‐step syngas‐to‐dimethyl ether (STD) process entails economic and technical advantages over the current industrial two‐step process. Pd/ZnO‐based catalysts have recently emerged as interesting alternatives to currently used Cu/ZnO/Al₂O₃ catalysts, but the nature of the active site(s), the reaction mechanism, and the role of Pd and ZnO in the solid catalyst are not well established. Now, Zn‐stabilized Pd colloids with a size of 2 nm served as the key building blocks for the methanol active component in bifunctional Pd/ZnO‐γ‐Al₂O₃ catalysts. The catalysts were characterized by combining high‐pressure operando X‐ray absorption spectroscopy and DFT calculations. The enhanced stability, longevity, and high dimethyl ether selectivity observed makes Pd/ZnO‐γ‐Al₂O₃ an effective alternative system for the STD process compared to Cu/ZnO/γ‐Al₂O₃.     

In situ infrared study of formate reactivity on water–gas shift and methanol synthesis catalysts

In order to investigate the methanol synthesis reaction from CO₂/H₂, a comparative study of the reactivity of formate species on different types of catalysts and catalyst supports has been carried out. Formic acid was adsorbed on water–gas shift catalysts, Cu/ZnO/Al₂O₃ methanol synthesis catalyst and ZnO/Al₂O₃ support, Cu/ZnO/ZrO₂ and Cu/ZnO/CeO₂ methanol synthesis catalysts as well as their corresponding supports ZnO/ZrO₂ and ZnO/CeO₂. Superior reactivity and selectivity of dedicated methanol synthesis catalysts was evidenced by their behavior during the subsequent heating ramp, when these samples showed the simultaneous presence of formates and methoxy species and a higher stability of these reaction intermediates in the usual temperature range for the methanol synthesis reaction.     

Development of high performance Cu/ZnO-based catalysts for methanol synthesis and the water-gas shift reaction

Our groups studies on Cu/ZnO-based catalysts for methanol synthesis via hydrogenation of CO₂ and for the water-gas shift reaction are reviewed. Effects of ZnO contained in supported Cu-based catalysts on their activities for several reactions were investigated. The addition of ZnO to Cu-based catalyst supported on Al₂O₃, ZrO₂ or SiO₂ improved its specific activity for methanol synthesis and the reverse water-gas shift reaction, but did not improve its specific activity for methanol steam reforming and the water-gas shift reaction. Methanol synthesis from CO₂ and H₂ over Cu/ZnO-based catalysts was extensively studied under a joint research project between National Institute for Resources and Environment (NIRE; one of the former research institutes reorganized to AIST) and Research Institute of Innovative Technology for the Earth (RITE). It was suggested that methanol should be produced via the hydrogenation of CO₂, but not via the hydrogenation of CO, and that H₂O produced along with methanol should greatly suppress methanol synthesis. The Cu/ZnO-based multicomponent catalysts such as Cu/ZnO/ZrO₂/Al₂O₃ and Cu/ZnO/ZrO₂/Al₂O₃/Ga₂O₃ were highly active for methanol synthesis from CO₂ and H₂. The addition of a small amount of colloidal silica to the multicomponent catalysts greatly improved their long-term stability during methanol synthesis from CO₂ and H₂. The purity of the crude methanol produced in a bench plant was 99.9 wt% and higher than that of the crude methanol from a commercial methanol synthesis from syngas. The water-gas shift reaction over Cu/ZnO-based catalysts was also studied. The activity of Cu/ZnO/ZrO₂/Al₂O₃ catalyst for the water-gas shift reaction at 523 K was less affected by the pre-treatments such as calcination and treatment in H₂ at high temperatures than that of the Cu/ZnO/Al₂O₃ catalyst. Accordingly, the Cu/ZnO/ZrO₂/Al₂O₃ catalyst was considered to be more suitable for practical use for the water-gas shift reaction. The Cu/ZnO/ZrO₂/Al₂O₃ catalyst was also highly active for the water-gas shift reaction at 673 K. Furthermore, a two-stage reaction system composed of the first reaction zone for the water-gas shift reaction at 673 K and the second reaction zone for the reaction at 523 K was found to be more efficient than a one-stage reaction system. The addition of a small amount of colloidal silica to a Cu/ZnO-based catalyst greatly improved its long-term stability in the water-gas shift reaction in a similar manner as in methanol synthesis from CO₂ and H₂.     

Ce-Cu-Co/CNTs催化剂催化合成气制低碳醇及乙醇的研究

采用共浸渍法制备了不同Ce含量的Ce-Cu-Co/CNTs 催化剂, 考察了其在合成气制低碳醇反应中的催化性能, 借助X射线衍射(XRD)、程序升温还原(H₂-TPR)、N₂吸脱附实验(BET)、透射电镜(TEM)和CO程序升温脱附(CO-TPD)对这些催化剂进行了表征. 结果表明, 当Ce的质量分数为3%时, 低碳醇的时空收率和选择性达到最高, 分别为696.4 mg·g^-1·h^-1和59.7%, 其中乙醇占总醇的46.8%, 适量Ce的添加能提高Cu物种在催化剂上的分散度和催化剂的还原性能, 能显著地增加催化剂吸附CO的能力, 促进合成醇活性位的形成, 进而明显提高催化剂的活性和总醇的选择性. 研究表明, 将具有高活性和高碳链增长能力的CuCo基催化剂与碳纳米管的限域效应结合, 可实现缩窄产物分布、大幅度提高乙醇选择性的目的.     

Gold catalysts supported on ZnO/Al<Subscript>2</Subscript>O<Subscript>3</Subscript> for low-temperature CO oxidation

Gold catalysts with loadings ranging from 0.5 to 7.0 wt% on a ZnO/Al₂O₃ support were prepared by the deposition–precipitation method (Au/ZnO/Al₂O₃) with ammonium bicarbonate as the precipitation agent and were evaluated for performance in CO oxidation. These catalysts were characterized by inductively coupled plasma-atom emission spectrometry, temperature programmed reduction, and scanning transmission electron microscopy. The catalytic activity for CO oxidation was measured using a flow reactor under atmospheric pressure. Catalytic activity was found to be strongly dependent on the reduction property of oxygen adsorbed on the gold surface, which related to gold particle size. Higher catalytic activity was found when the gold particles had an average diameter of 3–5 nm; in this range, gold catalysts were more active than the Pt/ZnO/Al₂O₃ catalyst in CO oxidation. Au/ZnO/Al₂O₃ catalyst with small amount of ZnO is more active than Au/Al₂O₃ catalyst due to higher dispersion of gold particles.     

Metal oxide-modified ZnO/SiO <Subscript>2</Subscript> catalysts for cyclo-dehydrogenation of ethylenediamine with propyleneglycol to 2-methylpyrazine

Metal oxide-modified ZnO /SiO2 catalysts were studied for the cyclo-dehydrogenation of ethylenediamine with propyleneglycol to 2-methylpyrazine at 633 K. The ZnO/SiO₂ catalyst showed fairly good ethylenediamine conversion and quantitative propyleneglycol conversion with about 60 mol% of 2-methylpyrazine selectivity, which is due to the existence of large amount of unconverted intermediate, 2-methylpiperazine. Metal oxide (CuO, NiO, Co₃O₄)-modified ZnO/SiO₂ catalysts were prepared to facilitate the dehydrogenation of 2-methylpiperazine to 2-methylpyrazine. About 82 mol% of 2-methylpyrazine selectivity was achieved on CuO and Co₃O₄ modified ZnO/SiO₂ catalysts, with significant increases of pyrazine selectivity. The catalytic properties of the metal oxidemodified ZnO/SiO₂ catalysts, pretreated with hydrogen gas as in the cyclo-dehydrogenation, were compared using the well-known probe reaction, the dehydrogenation/ dehydration of cyclohexanol to cyclohexanone or phenol/cyclohexene. The selectivities of pyrazine in the cyclo-dehydrogenation on the metal oxide-modified ZnO/SiO₂ catalysts were correlated with the phenol selectivities of the probe reaction. It is proposed that the metallic site of catalyst is responsible for the formation of pyrazine from ethylenediamine dimerization. The improved 2-methylpyrazine yield on CuO/ZnO/SiO₂ catalyst was explained by the proper adjustment of catalytic properties, which could be differentiated by the phenol selectivity in the cyclohexanol probe reaction. Thus, the large enhancement of 2-methylpiperazine dehydrogenation to 2-methylpyrazine and the suppression of excess pyrazine formation are supposed to occur on the metallic Cu formed in situ during the reaction during the cyclo-dehydrogenation of ethylenediamine with propyleneglycol.     

焙烧温度对K-Cu/Zn/La/ZrO2催化剂上异丁醇合成的影响

采用共沉淀法制备了Cu/Zn/La/ZrO₂催化剂,并浸渍K对其进行改性.以合成气合成异丁醇为探针反应,考察了焙烧温度对K-Cu/Zn/La/ZrO₂催化剂合成反应的影响.采用XRD、TG、BET、NH₃-TPD、H₂-TPR、Raman及XPS等手段表征了催化剂的结构和表面性质.结果表明,催化剂体相结构、比表面积与其催化活性没有直接关系;催化剂表面强酸中心的存在不利于异丁醇的生成;Cu-Zn-Zr活性组分间协同作用对催化剂活性影响很大,450 ℃焙烧温度下,Cu-Zn-Zr活性组分间协同作用最强,CuO最容易还原,催化活性最高,此时CO的转化率(物质的量)达到69.47%,醇中异丁醇的选择性(质量分数)为19.09%,甲醇+异丁醇的选择性(质量分数)为95.02%.     

Studies on the synthesis of higher alcohol over modified Cu/ZnO/Al<Subscript>2</Subscript>O<Subscript>3</Subscript> catalyst

Higher alcohol has been considered as a potential fuel additive. Higher alcohol, including C₂–C₄ alcohol was synthesized by catalytic conversion of syngas (with a ratio of CO/H₂?=?1) derived from natural gas over modified Cu/ZnO/Al₂O₃ catalyst. Modified Cu/ZnO/Al₂O₃ catalysts promoted by alkali metal (Li) for higher alcohol synthesis (HAS) were prepared at different pH (6, 6.5, 7, 8, and 9) by co-precipitation to control Cu surface area and characterized by N₂ physisorption, XRD, SEM, H₂-TPR and TPD. The HAS reaction was carried out under a pressure of 45 bar, GHSV of 4000 h^?1, ratio of H₂/CO?=?1, and temperature ranges of 240 and 280 °C. It was found that the malachite phase of copper causes the size of copper to be small, which is suitable for methanol synthesis. Methanol and HAS share a common catalytic active site and intermediate. It was also found that the productivity to higher alcohol was correlated with Cu surface area.     

Catalytic synthesis of isoprenol from fatty acid ester over bimetallic Cu–Fe catalysts

Supported bimetallic Cu–Fe catalysts revealed high activity and selectivity in isoprenyl acetate hydrogenation to isoprenol under mild reaction conditions (2 MPa H₂ and 170 °C). The nature of the carrier has a significant impact on the catalytic properties of Cu–Fe catalysts. The best catalytic properties were found for the 5% Cu–5% Fe/Al₂O₃ bimetallic catalyst, which provides a 98% isoprenyl acetate conversion in 4 h with the isoprenol selectivity of 82%.
