Dehydrogenation of isobutane in the presence of carbon dioxide over supported vanadium oxide catalysts

Summary The dehydrogenation of isobutane to isobutene in the presence of carbon dioxide was carried out over supported vanadium oxide catalysts. The influence of the support on the catalytic performance was investigated. The isobutane conversion and isobutene selectivity in the presence of carbon dioxide were compared with the results obtained during the dehydrogenation reaction in the presence of helium (inert gas). The catalysts were characterized by temperature-programmed techniques (TPR, TPD-NH₃, TPD-CO₂).     

NiO/Al_2O_3催化剂上二氧化碳气氛下异丁烷耦合脱氢制异丁烯

研究了二氧化碳气氛下NiO/Al2O3催化剂上异丁烷脱氢制异丁烯的反应性能,考察了助剂K2O对NiO/Al2O3催化性能的影响。结果表明,与在惰性气氛下的反应相比,在二氧化碳气氛下异丁烷脱氢与逆水煤气变换反应耦合,促进了异丁烷脱氢反应,异丁烯的收率得到提高。助剂K2O的加入,能降低催化剂的酸性,减缓反应过程中催化活性物种NiO的过度还原,并抑制异丁烷裂解及积炭生成等副反应,从而提高了异丁烯的收率以及催化剂的稳定性。

Coupling dehydrogenation of isobutane in the presence of carbon dioxide over chromium oxide supported on active carbon

The dehydrogenation of isobutane （IB） to produce isobutene coupled with reverse water gas shift in the presence of carbon dioxide was investigated over the catalyst Cr2O3 supported on active carbon （Cr2O3/AC）. The results illustrated that isobutane conversion and isobutene yield can be enhanced through the reaction coupling in the presence of carbon dioxide. Moreover, carbon dioxide can partially eliminate carbonaceous deposition on the catalyst and keep the active phase （Cr2O3）, which are then helpful to alleviate the catalyst deactivation.     

Catalytic dehydrogenation of isobutane in the presence of carbon dioxide

Summary The dehydrogenation of isobutane to isobutene in the presence and absence of carbon dioxide is discussed on the basis of catalytic studies.

The structure and texture of the V-Mg-O catalysts were characterized by several techniques including X-ray diffraction (XRD), BET surface area measurements and infrared spectroscopy (IR). The results show that carbon dioxide enhances isobutane conversion in the reaction carried out over the V-Mg-O catalyst prepared by citrate method.

Kinetic and Mechanistic Study of the Oxidative Dehydrogenation of Isobutane over Cobalt and Nickel Molybdates

The kinetics and mechanism of the oxidative dehydrogenation of isobutane on nickel and cobalt molybdates are studied. Cobalt molybdate is found to be more active than nickel molybdate. The rate laws and mechanisms for the formation of isobutene, carbon oxides, and cracking products are the same for both catalysts. Isobutene is formed via the redox mechanism with the participation of lattice oxygen. The formation of carbon oxide occurs with the participation of chemisorbed oxygen. The steps of the mechanism are proposed.     

Dehydration of isobutane in fixed bed on the stable to carbon deposition chromia-alumina catalysts

Study of chromia-alumina catalysts obtained from products of a thermochemical activation of aluminum trihydroxide for fixed-bed dehydrogenation of light paraffin hydrocarbons demonstrated that an increase in activity is observed in dehydrogenation of isobutane at a temperature of 590°C during the first 30 min of the catalytic process and then the activity slightly decreases. It was shown that the amount of carbon-deposition products on the surface of the synthesized catalysts after 120 min of isobutene dehydrogenation is 1–2 wt %. One of reasons for the high stability of chromia-alumina catalysts against carbon deposition is their porous structure. The use of the proposed catalysts in industry can improve the efficiency of the paraffin dehydrogenation processes by increasing the time of the reaction, while regeneration time is reduced.     

A kinetic study of oxidative dehydrogenation of isobutane to isobutylene over chromium oxide supported on lanthanum carbonate

Kinetics of oxidative dehydrogenation of isobutane to isobutylene over chromium oxide supported on lanthanum carbonate was studied. The formation rate of isobutylene was found to be first order in isobutane and zero order in oxygen concentration and the rate limiting step was the regeneration of active sites by the gas phase oxygen. The formation of CO₂ was due to the consecutive oxidation of isobutylene which occurred on the same active sites used for isobutylene formation, not by the parallel oxidation of isobutane.     

C-H activation of alkanes on Rh+ n (n=1-30) clusters: size effects on dehydrogenation

The rate coefficients for the dehydrogenation of ethane, propane, and isobutane with cationic rhodium atoms Rh+ and clusters Rh+ n of up to 30 atoms were measured under single-collision conditions in a Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer. The reaction rates are cluster size dependent and parallel for all the three alkanes. While the reactions proceed close to the theoretical collision rates for a large number of clusters, characteristic minima are observed for Rh+ (5/6/9/19/28). The degree of dehydrogenation varies with the cluster size with maxima for 10< or =n< or =15 for the three alkanes and for n=3 and 2-4 in the cases of ethane and propane, respectively. However, complete dehydrogenation is only observed for the reaction of Rh+ 11 with propane. Dehydrogenation is remarkably selective and no other neutral products than H2 are observed. The results are interpreted in terms of likely cluster geometries.     

Theoretical study on reactions catalyzed by gallium-substituted zeolites

The dehydrogenation and cracking reactions of light alkanes in gallium-containing zeolites were studied using density functional theory. Gallium isomorphically substituted, generating Brønsted acid sites, was used in the computations. The following reactions were examined: dehydrogenation of methane, ethane, propane, isobutane and cracking of ethane, propane and isobutene, all catalyzed by the framework gallium species. The cracking reaction seems to be favored relative to the dehydrogenation when framework gallium species are used. This behavior is also observed in aluminum-containing zeolites (H-ZSM5). The geometries and energetics of the transition states found for the gallium zeolites were compared with theoretical data for the same transition states in aluminum zeolites. There seems to be no significant difference between framework gallium and framework aluminum species. Therefore the framework gallium should not be the species responsible for the catalytic enhancement observed in gallium-containing zeolites.From the Proceedings of the 28th Congreso de Químicos Teóricos de Expresión Latina (QUITEL 2002)

碳催化剂用于异丁烷直接脱氢制异丁烯

异丁烯用途广泛,被认为是除乙烯和丙烯外最重要的基础化工原料.异丁烯的来源主要是石油裂化过程中产生的碳四馏分,但随着对其需求量的逐年增加,分离法已逐渐无法满足,因此异丁烷直接脱氢工艺逐渐受到工业界和学术界的重视.铬系和铂系催化剂是两类传统工业催化体系,但铬对环境污染严重,铂作为贵金属成本较高,而且现有工艺大多存在催化剂稳定性较差需要反复再生的问题.近年来碳材料用于烷烃氧化脱氢反应的研究较多,并表现出较高的活性和稳定性,甚至有研究组提出金属催化剂在反应中快速生成的活性积碳(active coke)可能是真正的催化活性中心.但氧化脱氢反应不同于直接脱氢,需在反应中加入氧气,这在实际生产中会带来一系列问题：考虑到烷烃的爆炸极限,实际应用时反应气必须稀释,这不利于产物的收集;而且氧气会导致反应物过度氧化产生CO和CO2等副产物,也限制了氧化脱氢工艺在工业上的应用和发展.
　　我们研究组将椰壳碳、煤质碳和碳纳米管等碳材料作为催化剂用于催化异丁烷直接脱氢反应,发现碳催化剂表现出较高的催化活性：在625 oC,椰壳碳上异丁烷转化率和异丁烯选择性分别为70%和78%,连续反应3d后仍能维持34%的转化率,且选择性基本不变.与铬基催化剂相比,碳催化剂在稳定性方面表现出更大优势.我们进一步采用N2吸脱附、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)、傅里叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)和场发射扫描电子显微镜(FE-SEM)等手段对反应前后的碳催化剂进行了详细表征. N2吸脱附结果表明,椰壳碳比表面积高达1190.2 m2/g,这可能是其具有较高催化活性的原因;而结合催化剂活性数据,对比反应前后椰壳碳催化剂比表面积和异丁烷转化率可知,两者呈现近乎线性的相关性,进一步证实比表面积大小对碳催化剂催化活性有重要影响. XPS谱图证明椰壳碳在反应前表面除了有少量硅(0.73%)外,不存在金属氧化物等杂质,证实碳材料无需负载氧化物等即可表现出较高的催化活性;反应后沉积的积碳附着在催化剂表面,使硅含量降低至0.47%;催化剂中氧含量也由4.43%降低至3.78%,同时有碳酸盐生成. FTIR谱图进一步证实反应前的椰壳碳表面有丰富的有机官能团,但反应开始后有机官能团很快消失,而催化剂仍保持较高的催化活性,因此有机官能团并非碳催化剂催化活性高的必要因素,这与文献中已报道的结果不同. FE-SEM照片中观察到反应后椰壳碳催化剂表面形成积碳,随着反应时间延长积碳明显增多,这与XPS结果一致.
　　碳材料具有来源广泛、绿色环保等显著优势,可作为一种新的催化体系应用于异丁烷直接脱氢反应,无需负载其他物质或添加氧化性气体即可表现出良好的催化活性和稳定性,其比表面积对催化活性有重要影响,反应中产生的积碳导致催化剂比表面积下降进而降低其催化活性,而有机官能团的存在对催化活性影响不大.     

Temperature hysteresis phenomena in heterogeneous catalysis

Temperature hysteresis is observed only in exothermic heterogeneous catalytic reactions (viz., oxidation and methanation of CO or propene hydrogenation) and is absent in the case of endothermic reactions (dehydrogenation of isobutane) or reactions with heat close to zero (viz., 2-butene isomerization). Temperature hysteresis in hydrogenation reactions was discovered for the first time. The concept of local overheating of catalyst active sites caused by poor removal of the reaction heat is proposed to provide a noncontradictory interpretation of the appearance of hysteresis loops.

Reactivity of isobutane on zeolites: a first principles study

In this work, ab initio and density functional theory methods are used to study isobutane protolytic cracking, primary hydrogen exchange, tertiary hydrogen exchange, and dehydrogenation reactions catalyzed by zeolites. The reactants, products, and transition-state structures are optimized at the B3LYP/6-31G* level, and the final energies are calculated using the CBS-QB3 composite energy method. The computed activation barriers are 52.3 kcal/mol for cracking, 29.4 kcal/mol for primary hydrogen exchange, 29.9 kcal/mol for tertiary hydrogen exchange, and 59.4 kcal/mol for dehydrogenation. The zeolite acidity effects on the reaction barriers are also investigated by changing the cluster terminal Si-H bond lengths. The analytical expressions between activation barriers and zeolite deprotonation energies for each reaction are proposed so that accurate activation barriers can be obtained when using different zeolites as catalysts.     

Kinetics of the Oxidative Dehydrogenation of Isobutane over Cr2O3/La2(CO3)3

The oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of isobutane over Cr2O3/La2(CO3)3 has been investi-gated in a low-pressure Knudsen cell reactor, under conditions where the kinetics of the primary reactionsteps can be accurately determined. By heating the catalyst at a constant rate from 150-300 ℃, temper-ature fluctuations due to non-equilibrium adsorption are minimized. The evolved gas profiles show thatODH to isobutene and water is a primary reaction pathway, while carbon dioxide, which forms from thecatalyst during reaction, is the only other product. This CO2 evolution may enhance the activity of thecatalyst. Isobutene formation proceeds with the participation of lattice oxygen from the Cr2O3/La2(CO3)3catalyst. The intrinsic Arrhenius rate constant for the ODH of isobutane isk(s-1) = 1011.5±2.2exp{-((55 ± 5) - △Hads kJmol-1)/RT}The small pre-exponential factor is expected for a concerted mechanism and for such a catalyst with asmall surface area and limited porosity.

Oxidative dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene with carbon dioxide over zeolite-supported iron oxide catalysts

Oxidative dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene with carbon dioxide was carried out over ZSM-5 zeolite-supported iron oxide catalysts. In the presence of carbon dioxide, ethylbenzene was predominantly converted into styrene by oxidation. It was found that carbon dioxide in this reaction plays a role as a soft oxidant to greatly improve catalytic activity. An active phase for the dehydrogenation with carbon dioxide was suggested as rather reduced and isolated magnetite-like phase having oxygen deficiency in zeolite matrix.
