A study of metals supported on active carbon with a temperature programmed reduction (TPR) technique

The influence of active carbon as support on the reducibility of supported metals (Ni, Cu, Cd, Zn) has been studied by means of a temperature programmed reduction (TPR) technique. The TPR profiles indicate that active carbon behaves as a dispersion agent and the supported metal is dispersed in a disordered phase rather than as a stoichiometric compound. The hydrogen consumed in the reduction indicates that the metal residues are present in monovalent and divalent forms. High-temperature reduction peaks were also observed and are explained on the basis of metal-surface interactions and the porosity of the active carbon. Nitrogen adsorption reveals that the active carbon porosity decreases due to progressive closure of the pores when metals are supported on the surface of active carbon.

负载型La0.8Sr0.2MnO3燃烧催化剂的载体效应

Combustion catalysts La0.8Sr0.2MnO3 supported on γ-Al2O3, α-Al2O3, cordierite (2MgO•2Al2O3•5SiO2) and ZrO2 were compared. Further investigation was focused on LSM/ γ-Al2O3 catalyst. It was observed that LSM/γ－Al2O3 catalyst loaded with 20% (mass fraction) LSM (La0.8Sr0.2MnO3 or corresponding oxides), heated at 750℃ or above, perovskite-type oxides were found by XRD examination, whereas, the same catalyst loaded with 10% or less LSM, perovskite oxides were absent, calcination temperature about 750℃ is necessary for the formation of perovskite structure in LSM/γ-Al2O3 catalysts. High activity of complete oxidation of xylen will be obtained when perovskite-type oxides.
Investigation of TPR showed that neat LSM or LSM/γ-Al2O3(20%) was reduced by H2-N2 mixed gas. Two degradation processes took place. In the first, reduced temperature peak was about 350 - 450℃. If reduction ended at 400℃, perovskite structure was retained, which may be due to the reduction of Mn3+to Mn2+ on the surface of LSM only. In the second process, perovskite structure was destroied, and La2O3, Mn2O3, Mn - Sr - O oxides could be obtained, which took place in the temperature range 685 - 750℃ and ended at 800℃. This was proved by TPR experiments (Fig. 3, 5) and XRD patterns (Fig. 4)
Catalysts LSM/γ-Al2O3(10% or 20%) heated at 500℃ have only one TPR peak, i. e. lower temperature peak. This is due to the absence of perovskite-type oxides in the catalysts. However, neat LSM or LSM/γ-Al2O3(20%) heated 750℃ or above, not only the first low temperature TPR peak but also the second peak, which is contributed by the perovskite-type oxides in these catalysts appeared. Therefore, the second TPR peak, i. e. the higher temperatue peak is a characteristic peak for perovskite-type oxides in the reduced process. When LSM/ γ-Al2O3 (10%) catalys is heated at 750℃, no perovskite-type oxides were detected by XRD, and the second reduction peak was absent also in TPR process. \
The order of the second reduction peak temperature(characteristic peak of perovskite - type ox- ides) is: neat LSM(750℃）> LSM/γ-Al2O3 20% (685-698℃) -deposited LSM/γ-Al2O3 (698℃) > LSM/γ-Al2O3 15% (677 - 680℃) >(LSM/γ-AL2O3 10% 620 - 630℃, for Mn - Al - O medium oxides on surface). It is correleted with the increasing of the effect of support sequentially.
When LSM/γ-Al2O3 catalysts were heated at 900℃, more stable phase, spinel MnAl2O4 appeared, which could be proved by TPR of model catalyst MnAl2O4/γ-Al2O3.     

煤焦吸附和还原NO的动力学研究

利用固定床反应器研究了煤焦吸附和还原NO的动力学,分析了热解温度(500℃～900℃)和矿物质对煤焦脱除NO的影响。结果表明,在程序升温反应(TPR)和等温反应中,随着温度的升高(30℃～600℃),煤焦-NO经历了从化学吸附到还原反应的转变。低温时煤焦脱除NO的动力学符合Elovich方程,原煤焦的起始吸附速率随着温度的升高而增大,脱灰煤焦的起始吸附速率先增大后减小,等温吸附过程中煤焦的活化能随着吸附量的增大而增大。随着热解温度的升高,TPR中煤焦的NO转化率降低,等温还原反应的速率常数减小,高温热解导致煤焦脱除NO的活性降低。矿物质对煤焦-NO的吸附和还原反应存在催化作用。

用TPR法研究了烃类蒸气转化制氢催化剂还原性能。发现这类催化剂的还原符合核化模型。镍与催化剂中其它组分相互作用影响催化剂的还原, MgO和水泥的加入均提高了NiO的还原温度,稀土氧化物的加入可降低NiO-MgO体系的还原温度。由TPR曲线峰形分析求得了RKN,TDRE-3和ICI-46-1以及其它含CeO_2催化剂还原动力学参数。发现CeO_2的加入减少了催化剂的还原活化能, 且还原活化能与镍的分散度之间有较好的对应关系, 即镍铈比(Ni/Ce)分散得越均匀, 则还原活化能越低。提出了CeO_2促进还原的机理。     

The reduction of copper in porous matrices--the role of electrostatic stabilisation

The redox properties of Cu(II) species in FAU matrices have been studied by temperature programmed reduction (TPR) in hydrogen and by XAFS analysis of the products obtained after (stationary) reduction treatments at various temperatures. The influence of the matrix polarity was investigated by comparing aluminosilicate FAU (Y zeolite) with siliceous FAU. In addition, the influence of Zn ions on the reduction process was studied. It was found that both the matrix composition and the presence of zinc ions exert a significant influence on the course of the reduction. In Y zeolite, heat treatment which is known to transfer Cu(II) ions to remote sites (SI, SI', SII') affects the reduction process dramatically. Cu(II) is most easily reduced in siliceous FAU, but the reduction proceeds in two clearly separated steps. Between these steps, small Cu(0) nuclei coexist with Cu(I) species, apparently unable to activate hydrogen for the autocatalytic reduction of the remaining Cu ions. The polarity of the matrix causes an upshift of the Cu(II) reduction temperature (in TPR by ca. 80 K for sites in the large cavity, by ca. 105 K for the remote sites), but the reduction of Cu(I) depends strongly on the simultaneous presence of Cu(0) and on its ability to activate hydrogen and induce an autocatalytic reduction mechanism. While Cu(I) species in the large cavities are easily reduced to the metal, tending to segregate from the zeolite lattice, Cu(I) ions in remote sites are strongly stabilized towards further reduction and even traces of Cu metal form only at very high temperatures. In the presence of zinc ions, the Cu metal particles formed were found to be smaller than in zinc-free samples.     

Study of thermal stability for tertiary pyridine ion exchange resin and anti-corrosion property of structural material toward eluents used in the advanced ORIENT cycle process

A multi-functional separation process is proposed as one of the technologies for implementing the Adv.-ORIENT (Advanced Optimization by Recycling Instructive ElemeNTs) Cycle concept [1]. The tertiary pyridine-type anion exchange resin (TPR) embedded in silica beads (silica-supported TPR) was demonstrated suitable for the separation process of actinides from spent fuel. In this process, hydrochloric acid (HCl) and a mixture of nitric acid (HNO₃) and methanol (MeOH) are used as eluents. In order to apply this process to an engineering plant scale, two important issues must be evaluated to prove the system suitability. One is an environmental aspect represented by the use of HCl solution which is corrosive to many materials. The other is clarification of the reactive safety of silica-supported TPR and the HNO₃–MeOH solvent mixture. Four types of metals, Ta, Zr, Nb, and Hastelloy-B (28%Mo–Ni) were selected as candidate materials which are anti-corrosive toward HCl. Corrosion experiments were conducted in HCl type simulated high level liquid waste (SHLLW) solution at room temperature for a maximum 720 h and at 90 °C for 336 h. Ta showed an all-round anti-corrosion property in HCl type SHLLW solution, and Hastelloy-B was only acceptable at room temperature. Thermal analysis by differential scanning calorimetry was done to investigate the thermal stability of silica-supported TPR-NO₃/MeOH/HNO₃ mixtures. Heating experiment results on a gram scale were also obtained and evaluated to determine the conditions necessary to avoid runaway reactions. As a result, it was confirmed that a vigorous exothermic reaction can be avoided by controlled decrease of temperature.     

Thermal characterisation of molybdenum and platinum-molybdenum catalysts

Alumina supported Mo and Pt-Mo catalysts was subject to temperature programmed reduction (TPR) using H₂ and CO. After earlier oxidation step TPR–H₂ profiles shows different surface species, which depends on the composition of the catalysts and reduction temperature. Change in reducing gas from H₂ into CO results in significant changes in catalyst system. Hydrogen causes a decrease in oxidation number of metals, while carbon monoxide reacts with chemisorbed chemicals.     

IB金属对Ni/SiO2催化剂乙炔选择性加氢反应性能的影响

乙烯是合成聚乙烯的原料,其主要来源是石油裂解气,其中少量的乙炔杂质会严重毒化生产聚乙烯的催化剂,因此需要将其去除.对于乙炔选择加氢反应,传统工业上使用的是Pd基催化剂,尽管其乙炔转化率很高,但对乙烯的选择性很低.我们前期的研究发现,IB族金属(Au,Ag和Cu)与Pd形成的合金单原子催化剂可以有效地提高乙烯的选择性.作为与Pd同组的非贵金属,Ni催化剂在多种催化加氢反应中显示出优异活性,而在乙炔选择加氢反应中,Ni是否能够替代贵金属Pd尚无定论.本文系统地研究了IB金属对Ni/SiO2催化剂乙炔选择性加氢性能的影响.与Pd/SiO2催化剂不同,单金属Ni/SiO2催化剂在低温下不具有活性.将IB金属添加到Ni/SiO2催化剂中,可以显著提高其催化活性以及对乙烯的选择性.其中,AuNix/SiO2和CuNix/SiO2催化剂的催化活性随还原温度升高而提高,而AgNix/SiO2催化剂对预处理温度不敏感.通过调变IB/Ni原子比和还原温度优化了催化剂的催化性能,发现优化后的三种催化剂(CuNi0.125/SiO2、AgNi0.5/SiO2和AuNi0.5/SiO2)的活性和选择性随反应温度升高表现出相似的变化趋势.催化稳定性考察结果显示,CuNi0.125/SiO2催化剂表现出最高选择性和稳定性;尽管AuNi0.5/SiO2的初始活性最高,但是稳定性最低.采用XRD、TPR和微量吸附量热等表征手段对不同IB金属对Ni基催化剂性质的影响进行了系统考察.以Cu-Nix/SiO2催化剂为例,H2-TPR测试结果表明,Cu-Ni双金属纳米颗粒的形成使得还原温度低于相应的单金属催化剂,表明铜和镍之间存在明显的相互作用.此外,通过TPR获得的CuNix/SiO2催化剂上的氢气消耗量与理论耗氢量相吻合,表明在还原处理的过程中双金属催化剂中的CuO和NiO可以被完全还原.乙炔的微量吸附量热结果表明,在CuNi0.125/SiO2,AgNi0.5/SiO2,AuNi0.5/SiO2和Ni0.5/SiO2催化剂上的初始吸附热分别为187,196,304和103 kJ/mol,即它们的初始乙炔吸附强度顺序为AuNi0.5/SiO2>AgNi0.5/SiO2>CuNi0.125/SiO2>Ni0.5/SiO2.该结果与三者的初始催化活性顺序一致,表明IB金属的加入可以增强乙炔在催化剂表面的吸附,从而提高催化活性.     

还原方式及还原温度对甲烷部分氧化镍催化剂结构和反应性能的影响

采用H2 TPR、TEM及活性评价等手段,考察了还原方式（等温和程序升温还原）及还原温度对不同温度（550℃和950℃）焙烧制备的镍基催化剂结构和甲烷部分氧化反应性能的影响。结果表明,与程序升温还原方式相比,等温还原的催化剂中镍物种的还原度较低、Ni晶粒度较小。还原方式对550℃焙烧制备的催化剂（POM-1）的甲烷部分氧化反应性能影响不明显,但等温还原的催化剂反应过程中床层温度较低。随着等温还原温度的提高,POM-1催化剂的镍还原度有所降低,而950℃焙烧制备的催化剂（POM-5）还原度略有增加,且具有较小的镍晶粒。随着等温还原温度的提高,POM-1催化剂反应性能无明显差异,但床层热点温度提高;POM-5催化剂反应性能随还原温度的提高而提高,且床层温度呈现降低趋势。通过分析发现,催化剂床层温度与催化剂镍晶粒大小密切相关,较小的镍晶粒利于床层热点温度的降低,这与较大镍晶粒利于甲烷完全氧化反应有关。     

Temperature-programmed reduction study on carbon-supported platinum-gold alloy catalysts

Alloy catalysts of Pt-Au/C with different Pt/Au ratios were prepared by the precipitation-deposition of metal chlorides and reduced by H(2) at 470 K. The surface composition of alloy crystallites deposited on the prepared catalysts was characterized by a technique of temperature-programmed reduction (TPR). In the characterization, O(2) was chemisorbed on the reduced catalysts and the chemisorbed O(2) was reduced by TPR. A low-temperature routine (LT) in the temperature range between 120 and 430 K was used for the TPR characterization. Monometallic catalysts of Au/C and Pt/C showed a reduction peak in the LT-TPR at reduction temperature (T(r))=145 and 240 K, respectively. T(r) from alloyed catalysts fell in the range and increased monotonously with their Pt/Au ratios. Interior Pt atoms in deposited alloy particles tended to segregate toward their surface during oxidation treatment at elevated temperatures.     

Effect of Calcium Oxide Additive on Sorbent for High-Temperature the Performance of Iron Oxide Coal Gas Desulfurization

The effect of calcium oxide additive in iron oxide sorbent for hot gas desulfurization was investigated by XRD and TPR techniques. XRD characterization showed that CaO was highly dispersed after the calcination of sorbents. Calcium sulfate formed in the desulfurization was decomposed and regenerated to CaO by reacting with CO before the next sulfidation process. Calcium participated in every sulfidation/regeneration cycle and contributed to the enhancement of sulfur capacity. The TPR results showed that the reduction temperature of the sorbent increased with the increase of the content of calcium. Calcium played a role of retarding reduction. Therefore, the addition of calcium oxide additive will benefit the utilization of iron oxide sorbent in strongly reducing atmospheres.     

Effect of Transition Metals (Cu, Co and Fe) on the Autothermal Reforming of Methane over Ni/Ce0.2Zr0.1Al0.7Oδ Catalyst

The transition metals (Cu, Co, and Fe) were applied to modify Ni/Ce0.2Zr0.1Al0.7Oδ catalyst.The effects of transition metals on the catalytic properties of Ni/Ce0.2Zr0.1Al0.7Oδ autothermal reforming of methane were investigated. The Ni-supported catalysts were characterized by XRD, TPR and XPS.Tests in autothermal reforming of methane to hydrogen showed that the addition of transition metals (Cu and Co) significantly increased the activity of catalyst under the conditions of lower reaction temperature,and Ni/Cu0.05Ce0.2Zr0.1Al0.65Oδ was found to have the highest conversion of CH4 among all catalysts in the operation temperatures ranging from 923 K to 1023 K. TPR, XRD and XPS measurements indicated that the cubic phases of CexZr1-xO2 solid solution were formed in the preparation process of catalysts.Strong interaction was found to exist between NiO and CexZr1-xO2 solid solution. The addition of Cu improved the dispersion of NiO, inhibited the formation of NiAl2O4, and thus significantly promoted the activity of the catalyst Ni/Cu0.05Ce0.2Zr0.1Al0.65Oδ.

Temperature programmed reduction of silica supported nickel catalysts

Nickel oxide promoted catalysts are prepared by simple precipitation, precipitation from homogeneous solution and impregnation methods and their reduction behavior is monitored with temperature programmed reduction (TPR) technique. The effect of different parameters such as metal loading, method of preparation and heat treatment temperature are also observed on the reducibility of the catalysts. It is observed that reduction temperature increases with the increase of calcination temperature. Results indicate that the interactions between nickel oxide and silica begin with the increase of calcination temperature which leads to the formation of nickel hydrosilicates and are responsible for high temperature reduction peaks.     

Fe助剂对Cu/ZrO2甲醇水蒸气重整制氢催化剂的影响

Forms of oxygen in La1 − x Ca x MnO3 + δ (x = 0–1) perovskites and their reactivities in oxidation reactions

The effects of substitution in the cationic sublattice and of the synthesis procedure on the reactivity of different forms of oxygen in La_{1 ? x} Ca _x MnO_{3 + δ} perovskites synthesized by mechanochemical and ceramic processing was studied by temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) with hydrogen. As the calcium content of the perovskite is raised, the maxima of the TPR peaks shift to lower temperatures and the extent of reduction of the perovskite increase, implying an increase in the reactivity of the system. Conversely, raising the calcination temperature or extending the calcination time shifts the maxima of the peaks to higher temperatures and diminishes the extent of reduction of the sample. TPR data for the intermediate-composition samples can be explained in terms of the dependence of microstructure on the synthesis procedure (near-surface calcium segregation in the mechanochemically synthesized samples and the microheterogeneous structure of the ceramic samples). The reduction process Mn⁴⁺ → Mn²⁺ takes place in the low- and medium-temperature regions. According to the literature, the bulk reduction process Mn³⁺ → Mn²⁺ occurs at high temperatures. The activity of the system in CO oxidation is correlated with the amount of the most reactive surface oxygen, which is eliminated in hydrogen TPR runs below 250–300°C.     

水分压对铁基费托合成催化剂还原动力学的影响

 利用恒温还原和程序升温还原技术研究了水分压对铁基费托合成催化剂还原路径、还原机理和表观活化能的影响. 程序升温还原结果表明, 水分压对催化剂的还原路径没有明显的影响, 催化剂均首先由 α-Fe2O3 还原为 Fe3O4, 然后超顺磁态 Fe3O4 先还原为 FeO, 再还原为 α-Fe, 而顺磁态 Fe3O4 则直接还原为 α-Fe. 恒温还原结果表明, 催化剂在 2.5%H2O-97.5%H2 气氛中还原时, 还原过程达到平衡时的还原程度随还原温度的升高而增加. 利用 Hancock-Sharp 方法分析了恒温还原过程的动力学模型. 结果表明, 还原温度较低时, 催化剂在 2.5%H2O-97.5%H2 气氛中还原时受内扩散模型控制; 还原温度较高时则受晶相形成与生长模型控制. 利用 Kissinger 方法计算了还原过程的活化能, 发现随着水分压的增加, 表观活化能呈增大的趋势. 水分压对 Fe3O4 还原为 α-Fe 过程的影响大于其对 α-Fe2O3 还原为 Fe3O4 过程的影响.     

惰性载气对TPR动力学的影响

对于一些气-固相反应,同样条件下的动力学行为随惰性载气不同有所差异^[1,2]。为从实验上进一步揭示这一问题,并从理论上给出圆满的解释,我们对程序升温还原(TPR)^[8]过程进行了系统的考察,同时研究了不同惰性载气条件下铜氧化物还原反应的动力学问题,结合有关反应机理和统计热力学的概念,讨论惰性载气对气-固相还原反应动力学的影响。
