Untersuchungen an Nickeloxid-Mischkatalysatoren. XVI. Reduktionsverhalten amorpher NiO?Al2O3/SiO2-Katalysatoren

Studies on Nickel Oxide Mixed Catalysts. XVI. Reduction Behaviour of Amorphous NiO? Al₂O₃/SiO₂ Catalysts The reduction behaviour of NiO? Al₂O₃/SiO₂ catalysts prepared by precipitationdeposition is influenced by the phase composition (amorphous nickel layersilicates and nickel alumino layersilicates, nickel spinels, nickel oxide) and the differences of the composition between surface and bulk. TPR measurements, determinations of the reduction degree, and the nickel particle sizes by static magnetic measurements showed that the reducibility of the NiO? Al₂O₃/SiO₂ catalysts is enhanced and the nickel dispersity is decreased at low Al₂O₃ contents. The decrease of the reducibility at Al₂O₃ contents >5 mole% is caused by the formation of nickel spinels and the decrease of the Ni^II ion surface concentration.     

Charakterisierung und katalytische Aktivität von Ni2+-ausgetauschten X- und Y-Zeolithen. II. Die Reduzierbarkeit des Ni2+ durch niedere Olefine und die Dimerisierungsaktivität der Ni2+-ausgetauschten Zeolithe

Characterization and Catalytic Activity of Ni²⁺ -X and -Y Zeolites. II. Reducibility of Ni²⁺ by Low Olefines and the Dimerization Activity of the Ni²⁺ -Zeolites The reducibility of Ni²⁺ in X and Y zeolites by hydrogen, but-1-ene, propene, and ethene is compared. The degree of reduction was determined after isothermal reduction and reoxidation by the TPR method. At 673 K on X zeolites the reducibility decreases in the order: H₂ > but-1-ene, propene > ethene. On Y zeolites an inversion takes place: but-1-ene, propene > H₂, ethene. The mechanism of reduction by olefins should be determined by an intermediate splitting off of a hydride ion as a reducing species. Such a mechanism explains the higher degree of reduction in the more acid Y zeolites. Assuming low valent nickel as an active center in ethen dimerization the induction period results from the reduction of Ni²⁺ ions.     

Untersuchungen an Nickeloxid-Mischkatalysatoren. XV. Oberflächenchemische Eigenschaften von NiO/Al2O3?SiO2-Katalysatoren

Studies on Nickel Oxide Mixed Catalysts. XV. Surface Chemical Properties of NiO/Al₂O₃-SiO₂ Catalysts Surface chemical properties of precipitated NiO/Al₂O₃? SiO₂ catalysts different compositions and the corresponding Al₂O₃? SiO₂ carriers have been investigated. Infrared spectroscopic measurements (before and after adsorption of pyridine and ammonia), ¹H-n.m.r. and ammonia adsorption measurements showed that the number of the Lewis-acidic sites are increased mainly by incorporation of the nickel component on the X-ray amorphous Al₂O₃? SiO₂ carriers, whereas the number of the hydroxide groups do not change significantly. With growing alumina content the number and the strength of the Lewis-acidic sites are increased where the part of the Ni^II surface sites decreases and those of the Al^III surface sites increases. Brönsted-acidic sites are detectable at high alumina contents.     

Correlation between acidic properties of nickel catalysts and catalytic activities for ethylene dimerization and butene isomerization

Catalytic activities of NiO–SiO₂ for ethylene dimerization and butene isomerization run parallel when the catalysts are activated by evacuation at elevated temperatures, giving two maxima in activities. The variations in catalytic activities are closely correlated to the acidity of NiO–SiO₂ catalysts. Catalytic activities of NiO–TiO₂ catalysts modified with H₂SO₄, H₃PO₄, H₃BO₃, and H₂SeO₄ for ethylene dimerization and butene isomerization were examined. The order of catalytic activities for both reactions was found to be NiO–TiO₂/SO₄^2- >> NiO–TiO₂/PO₄^3-NiO–TiO₂/BO₃^3- > NiO–TiO₂/SeO₄^2-> NiO–TiO₂, showing clear dependence of catalytic activity upon acid strength. The high catalytic activity of supported nickel sulfate for ethylene dimerization was related to the increase of acidity and acid strength due to the addition of NiSO₄. The asymmetric stretching frequency of the S=O bonds for supported NiSO₄ catalysts was related to the acidic properties and catalytic activity. That is, the higher the frequency, the larger both the acidity and catalytic activity. For NiSO₄/Al₂O₃–ZrO₂ catalyst, the addition of Al₂O₃ up to 5 mol% enhanced catalytic activity for ethylene dimerzation and strong acidity gradually due to the formation of Al–O–Zr bond. The active sites responsible for ethylene dimerization consist of a low-valent nickel, Ni⁺, and an acid, as evidenced by the IR spectra of CO adsorbed on NiSO₄/ -Al₂O₃ and Ni 2p XPS.     

Nature of condensation products in but-1-ene aromatization on high-silica zeolite catalyst

The aromatization of but-1-ene on the H-form of pentasil-type zeolite catalyst (SiO₂/Al₂O₃ = 54) is studied in the temperature range from 573 to 723 K. It is shown that in the range of 623 to 723 K, the liquid phase consists mainly of aromatic hydrocarbons. The results from differential thermal and X-ray diffraction analyses show that graphite-like depositions can form in zeolite channels during the conversion of but-1-ene on the H-form of zeolite catalyst at 673 K and more than 20 h. The activity of the catalyst remains virtually the same.     

Supported Ru−Ni Catalysts for Biogas and Biohydrogen Conversion into Syngas

Catalytic properties of monometallic Ni and bimetallic Ru–Ni supported on Al₂O₃, CaO–Al₂O₃, and MgO–Al₂O₃ have been studied in mixed reforming of methane. Physicochemical properties of the catalytic systems have been studied by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectroscope and temperature-programmed reduction by hydrogen. It has been shown that, of all the studied samples, the highest conversion of methane and carbon dioxide is achieved in the presence of the Ru?Ni/MgO–Al₂O₃ bimetallic catalyst. Temperature-programmed reduction has confirmed the effect of hydrogen spillower from ruthenium to NiO. The formation of Ru–Ni alloy has also been found.     

乙烷氧化脱氢用Ni/Al2O3催化剂中活性镍物种前驱体（英文）

Ni/Al2O3 catalysts for oxidative dehydrogenation(ODH) of ethane were prepared by impregnation of Al2O3 with nickel acetate or nickel nitrate,and by mechanical mixing of NiO and Al2O3.The Ni-based catalysts were characterized by N2 adsorption-desorption,X-ray diffraction,diffuse reflectance UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy,and temperature-programmed reduction of hydrogen.The results showed that formation of crystalline NiO particles with a size of < 8 nm and/or non-stoichiometric NiO species in the Ni/Al2O3 catalysts led to more active species in ODH of ethane under the investigated reaction conditions.In contrast,tetrahedral Ni species present in the catalysts led to higher selectivity for ethene.Formation of large crystalline NiO particles(22-32 nm) over Ni/Al2O3 catalysts decreased the selectivity for ethene.     

Untersuchungen an Nickeloxid-Mischkatalysatoren. I. Strukturelle Eigenschaften von NiO/SiO2-Katalysatoren

Studies on Nickel Oxide Mixed Catalysts. I. Structural Properties of NiO/SiO₂ Catalysts Structural properties of NiO/SiO₂ catalysts prepared by precipitation-deposition and impregnation have been investigated. A nickel-layer-silicate like structure is formed only in the precipitated catalysts showed infrared spectroscopic measurements. After thermal treatment at 723 K by means of magnetic measurements and reflectance spectroscopy besides Ni²⁺ ions in octahedral environment tetrahedral coordinated Ni²⁺ions were found. The part of tetrahedral coordinated Ni²⁺ ions is independent of the NiO-content up to 40 mole % NiO. Nickel oxide is formed above a content of 40 mole %. In the case of the impregnated catalysts nickel oxide cluster are formed on the surface after annealing at 723 K.     

Syngas production from pyrolysis–catalytic steam reforming of waste biomass in a continuous screw kiln reactor

A two-stage continuous screw-kiln reactor was investigated for the production of synthesis gas (syngas) from the pyrolysis of biomass in the form of waste wood and subsequent catalytic steam reforming of the pyrolysis oils and gases. Four nickel based catalysts; NiO/Al₂O₃, NiO/CeO₂/Al₂O₃, NiO/SiO₂ (prepared by an incipient wetness method) and another NiO/SiO₂ (prepared by a sol–gel method), were synthesized and used in the catalytic steam reforming process. Pyrolysis of the biomass at a rapid heating rate of approximately 40 °C/s, was carried out at a pyrolysis temperature of 500 °C and the second stage reforming of the evolved pyrolysis gases was carried out with a catalytic bed kept at a temperature of 760 °C. Gases were analysed using gas chromatography while the fresh and reacted catalyst was analysed by scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, transmission electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The reactor design was shown to be effective for the pyrolysis and catalytic steam reforming of biomass with a maximum syngas yield of 54.0 wt.% produced when the sol–gel prepared NiO/SiO₂ catalyst was used, which had the highest surface area of 765 m² g⁻¹. The maximum H₂ production of 44.4 vol.% was obtained when the NiO/Al₂O₃ catalyst was used.     

Catalytic property of Europium supported on alumina from its ammoniacal solution

Europium supported on alumina (Eu/Al₂O₃) was prepared by impregnation from an ammoniacal solution of the metal. The catalytic activity of Eu/Al₂O₃ for the isomerization of 2,3-dimethylbut-1-ene to 2,3-dimethylbut-2-ene was examined. Eu/Al₂O₃ showed the highest catalytic activity for the isomerization when heated under a vacuum at 523 K, the yield of 2,3-dimethylbut-2-ene in 20 min being 81.6% at 314 K. IR spectrum shows the presence of two kinds of Eu amides. The change of the IR spectra and the catalytic activities with evacuation temperature suggest that only one of the two Eu amides is catalytically active for this base-catalyzed isomerization.     

Untersuchungen an Nickeloxid-Mischkatalysatoren. XI. Oberflächenchemische Eigenschaften von NiO/SiO2-Katalysatoren

Studies on Nickel Oxide Mixed Catalysts. XI. Surface Chemical Properties of NiO/SiO₂ Catalysts NiO/SiO₂ catalysts with different composition prepared by precipitation have been investigated which are characterized by a nickel layersilicate-like structure. The determination of the surface chemical properties was carried out by infrared spectroscopy (before and after pyridine adsorption), ¹H-NMR-measurements, chemisorption of ammonia, and titration with n-butylamine. It has been found three kinds of hydroxid groups which are assigned to Ni? OH and Si? OH groups with respect to investigations on definite nickel layersilicates. Furthermore, coordinatively unsaturated Ni^II surface sites were indicated. The number of the OH groups as well as the centers determined by chemisorption of bases increase with increasing NiO content. The obtained results allow the conclusion that the OH groups and the coordinatively unsaturated Ni^II surface sites are weakly acid.     

Beeinflussung der katalytischen Eigenschaften von Al2O3?SiO2-Katalysatoren durch Alkalivergiftung

Effect of Alkali Contamination on the Catalytic Properties of Al₂O₃? Si₂ Catalytic properties of amorphous Al₂O₃? SiO₂ catalysts containing different amounts of Al₂O₃ in dehydration of isopropanol and cracking of cumene were examined after a defined contamination of the acid centers by sodium ethylate from alcoholic solution. In both reactions, the catalytic activity is decreased by treatment with sodium ethylate, the cracking of cumene being suppressed at a lower alkali concentration than the dehydration of isopropanol. In dehydration of isopropanol, the dependence of the catalytic activity on the alkali content is influenced strongly by the Al₂O₃ content of the catalysts. In the cracking of cumene, strongly acid Brönsted centers are active, whereas the dehydration of isopropanol proceeds by joint action of acid Lewis or Brönsted centers, respectively, with basic centers at the surface of the catalyst (hydroxide groups or oxygen anions).     

Surface Properties of Impregnated Mixed Oxide Catalysts

The results of a comparative study of nickel oxide-alumina and nickel oxide-silica alumina catalysts in the light of the characteristics of the support systems alumina and silica-alumina are presented. The impregnation of NiO does not produce any significant change in the textural characteristics like surface area and pore volume of the support oxides. However the deposited nickel oxide leads to the modification of the surface acidity determined by Hammett indicators. In the case of parent oxides the ammonia adsorption is strong (from heat of adsorption measurement) for alumina and silica-alumina, though for the former it is slightly stronger at comparable surface coverages. But the adsorption of ammonia on NiO? Al₂O₃ is weak while it is strong on NiO/SiO₂? Al₂O₃ at the same comparable surface coverages. The reduction in acidity is reflected in the poor dehydration and absence of skeletal isomerisation on NiO impregnated catalysts.     

Untersuchungen an Metallkatalysatoren. 37. Zum Einfluß der Beladung auf Aktivität und Selektivität von Nickel/Träger-Katalysatoren

Investigations on Metal Catalysts. 37. On the Influence of the Loading on Activity and Selectivity of Supported Nickel Catalysts Strong metal-support interactions effect a distinct decrease of the hydrogenolysis activity. They can be detected with diminishing metal loading in the following order: Ni/TiO₂ > Ni/Al₂O₃ > Ni/SiO₂. Strong metal-support interactions mean an influence on the electronic properties of the metal crystallites. On the other hand a mechanical mixture of nickel and η-Al₂O₃ is more active in hydrogenolysis than nickel.     

Untersuchungen an oxidischen Katalysatoren. XXVIII. Einfluß der Vorbehandlungsbedingungen auf Die katalytischen Eigenschaften von NiNaY- und NiCoNaY-Zeolithen

Studies on Oxide Catalysts. XXVIII. Influence of Pretreatment on Catalytic Properties of Zeolites NiNaY and NiCoNaY The influence of the pretreatment conditions on the acidic properties, the reduction degree of nickel, and the catalytic activity and selectivity of zeolites NiNaY and NiCoNaY in the alkylation of benzene with ethylene has been investigated. From the experimental results can be concluded that sec. buthylbenzene from benzene and ethylene is only formed on zeolite samples which contain both together BRÖNSTED acidic centres and Ni²⁺ cations or NiO. Catalysts which contain only metallic nickel are inactive for this reaction. Catalysts with nickel in different forms are active in the formation of ethylbenzene, diethylbenzene, butane and sec. buthylbenzene, the yields depending on the relation of Ni°, Ni²⁺, and NiO. Changing this relation makes possible to regulate the selectivity in the alkylation of benzene with ethylene.     

不同硅铝比Al-ITQ-13分子筛的甲醇制丙烯反应催化性能

采用晶种法直接合成了硅铝比(SiO_2/Al_2O_3物质的量比)为137、224和309的三种Al-ITQ-13分子筛,并采用粉末X射线衍射(XRD)、扫描电镜(SEM)、N_2吸附-脱附、固体核磁共振(MAS NMR)和NH_3-程序升温脱附(NH_3-TPD)等分析方法对不同硅铝比分子筛进行了表征,并在固定床微型反应评价装置上,考察了硅铝比对甲醇转化制丙烯反应性能的影响。结果表明,不同硅铝比Al-ITQ-13分子筛呈现出相似的织构性质,酸量及酸强度随着硅铝比的升高逐渐下降。硅铝比对甲醇转化反应的产物分布存在较大的影响;随着硅铝比的升高,氢转移反应和芳构化反应活性降低,使得乙烯选择性下降,而丙烯和丁烯的选择性升高。硅铝比由137提高到309,丙烯的选择性(质量分数)由46.04%增加到55.52%,而丙烯/乙烯比由3.39提高到6.57。     

高效钼基催化剂上正丁烯自歧化生成乙烯和己烯（英文）

烯烃歧化反应(又称烯烃复分解反应)是两分子烯烃通过碳-碳键断裂重排生成新烯烃分子的反应,自1964年Phillips公司的Banks等发现以来,引起了研究者的广泛关注,且在均相催化体系的发展尤为迅速;与此同时,多相烯烃歧化催化剂因其在分离简单、可循环再生利用方面的优势而在工业界崭露锋芒.多相烯烃歧化催化剂通常由活性金属组分(Re,Mo,W)分散到大比表面积的多孔载体制备而成.多相催化剂上烯烃歧化反应主要集中在乙烯和2-丁烯反歧化制丙烯反应,其中WO_3/SiO_2催化剂先后应用于Phillips公司的Triolefin Process和ABB Lummus公司的OCT工艺,低温Re系催化剂被法国石油研究院应用到Meta-4歧化工艺.同时丙烯歧化也是研究最多的反应,多数情况下被用作探针反应来研究催化剂的性能.烯烃歧化反应可以根据市场需求灵活调变产物分布,为碳四烃类的高效转化利用提供很好的途径.受国内拉动内需的政策及下游应用行业强劲需求的影响,中国液化石油气的产量逐年递增.2014年我国液化气产量约为2550万吨,其中仅有39%左右用于碳四深加工,大部分当做燃料直接烧掉.从组成来看,液化气中烯烃含量在40%-50%,可以转化为高附加值的乙烯和丙烯进一步利用.本文重点开发了一条从1-丁烯出发生产乙烯/己烯的反应路线及对应的催化剂.首先从热力学角度分析了碳四歧化反应网络中各反应路径发生的难易程度.在此基础上,以Mo/Al_2O_3为催化剂考察了Mo负载量和反应条件对产物分布的影响-.在优化的6Mo/Al_2O_3催化剂上,80°C,1.0 MPa和丁烯空速3 h1的条件下,产物中乙烯和己烯的摩尔选择性超过85%,并且在48 h内保持良好的反应稳定性.为了进一步探究催化剂结构与反应性能的关系,系统考察了催化剂载体差异对Mo物种状态和反应性能的影响.借助N2吸附,NH_3-TPD,Py-IR,H_2-TPR,UV-Vis和HRTEM等表征手段,发现催化剂反应活性与其酸密度直接相关.催化剂酸量越大,丁烯转化率越高,但副反应越多;载体适宜的酸量和较大的比表面积更有利于钼物种的分散和四配位钼物种的形成,促进目标1-丁烯自歧化制乙烯/己烯反应的发生.     

SiO2和Al2O3负载的Ni基催化剂在甲烷干重整中的催化性能差异

CH₄与CO₂干重整反应对于环境保护和天然气资源的合理利用具有重要意义。SiO₂和Al₂O₃是适用于甲烷干重整反应的两种典型的催化剂载体。为了阐明这两种载体对催化剂性能的影响,本研究采用等体积浸渍法制备了Ni/Al₂O₃和Ni/SiO₂催化剂,并利用BET、TEM、H₂-TPR、XRD、TG和Raman等技术对还原和反应后的催化剂进行了表征。结果表明,由于载体的性质不同,Ni基催化剂在甲烷干重整中的催化性能也不同。Ni/SiO₂催化剂的初始活性较高,但由于其金属-载体相互作用较弱,催化稳定性较差,在800℃下反应15h其催化活性急剧下降;较弱的金属-载体相互作用使得Ni/SiO₂催化剂上的Ni颗粒较大,有利于积炭前驱物种的生成,导致催化剂快速失活。而对于Ni/Al₂O₃催化剂,金属-载体相互作用较强,Ni颗粒较小,但由于Ni与Al₂O₃生成了NiAl_xO_y物种,有效活性位减少,其催化活性相对较低,但催化稳定性较好,干重整反应进行50h其活性保持稳定;Ni与Al₂O₃之间较强的相互作用有利于形成小且稳定的Ni粒子,能减少积炭,因而具有优异的催化稳定性。     

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.     

Novel Flower‐Like Ag‐SiO2‐MgO‐Al2O3 Material: Preparation,Characterization and Catalytic Application in Methanol Dehydrogenation

Catalytic direct dehydrogenation of methanol to formaldehyde was carried out over Ag‐SiO₂‐MgO‐Al₂O₃ catalysts prepared by sol‐gel method. The optimal preparation mass fractions were determined as 8.3% MgO, 16.5% Al₂O₃ and 20% silver loading. Using this optimum catalyst, excellent activity and selectivity were obtained. The conversion of methanol and the selectivity to formaldehyde both reached 100%, which were much higher than other previously reported silver supported catalysts. Based on combined characterizations, such as X‐ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), diffuse reflectance ultraviolet‐visible spectroscopy (UV‐Vis, DRS), nitrogen adsorption at low temperature, temperature programmed desorption of ammonia (NH₃‐TPD), desorption of CO₂ (CO₂‐TPD), etc., the correlation of the catalytic performance to the structural properties of the Ag‐SiO₂‐ MgO‐Al₂O₃ catalyst was discussed in detail. This perfect catalytic performance in the direct dehydrogenation of methanol to formaldehyde without any side‐products is attributed to its unique flower‐like structure with a surface area less than 1 m²/g, and the strong interactions between neutralized support and the nano‐sized Ag particles as active centers.
