Catalytic combustion of methane over nano ZrO2-supported copper-based catalysts

The nano ZrO2-supported copper-based catalysts for methane combustion were investigated by means of N2 adsorption, TEM, XRD, H2-TPR techniques and the test of methane oxidation. Two kinds of ZrO2 were used as support, one （ZrO2-1） was obtained from the commercial ZrO2 and the other （ZrO2-2） was issued from the thermal decomposition of zirconium nitrate. It was found that the CuO/ZrO2-2 catalyst was more active than CuO/ZrO2-1. N2 adsorption, H2-TPR and XRD measurements showed that larger surface area, better reduction property, presence of tetragonal ZrO2 and higher dispersion of active component for CuO/ZrO2-2 than that of CuO/ZrO2-1. These factors could be the dominating reasons for its higher activity for methane combustion.     

CuO／CeO2和CuO／Al2O3催化剂的催化性能

本文以ＣＯ氧化为模式反应考察了ＣｅＯ２和Ａｌ２Ｏ３负载氧化铜催化剂的氧化活性，运用ＸＲＤ和ＴＰＲ技术研究了催化剂的还原性能和物相结构，结果表明：载体性质对负载ＣｕＯ催化剂的ＣＯ氧化活性有很大影响，ＣｕＯ／ＣｅＯ２催化剂活性明显高于ＣｕＯ／Ａｌ２Ｏ３催化剂．催化剂的还原特性随载体不同而不同．同时发现，热处理对催化剂铜物种的存在形式，晶粒大小、还原特性及其催化活性有明显影响，ＣｕＯ／Ａｌ２Ｏ３催化剂活性下降的主要因素是生成了活性较低的ＣｕＡｌ２Ｏ４相，而ＣｕＯ／ＣｅＯ２催化剂活性下降是由于ＣｕＯ和ＣｅＯ２发生烧结，晶粒变大     

COx-Free Hydrogen and Carbon Nanofibers Produced from Direct Decomposition of Methane on Nickel-Based Catalysts

Direct decomposition of methane was carried out using a fixed-bed reactor at 700℃for the production of COx-free hydrogen and carbon nanofibers. The catalytic performance of NiO-M/SiO2 catalysts (where M=AgO, CoO, CuO, FeO, MnOx and MoO) in methane decomposition was investigated. The experimental results indicate that among the tested catalysts, NiO/SiO2 promoted with CuO give the highest hydrogen yield. In addition, the examination of the most suitable catalyst support, including Al2O3, CeO2, La2O3, SiO2, and TiO2, shows that the decomposition of methane over NiO-CuO favors SiO2 support. Furthermore, the optimum ratio of NiO to CuO on SiO2 support for methane decomposition was determined. The experimental results show that the optimum weight ratio of NiO to CuO fell at 8:2 (w/w) since the highest yield of hydrogen was obtained over this catalyst.     

不同方法制备的CeO2载体对CuO/CeO2催化剂水煤气变换活性和稳定性的影响

分别采用沉淀法(A),水热法(B)和柠檬酸溶胶-凝胶法(C)制备了三种CeO2材料,并以其为载体采用沉积-沉淀法制备了CuO/CeO2催化剂.运用N2物理吸附、粉末X射线衍射(PXRD)、原位粉末X射线衍射(in situ PXRD)、氢气-程序升温还原(H2-TPR)和循环伏安法(CV)等技术对其进行了表征,考察了不同方法制备的CeO2载体对CuO/CeO2水煤气变换(WGS)催化剂的结构、氧化-还原性能、催化活性和稳定性的影响.结果表明,它们的催化活性和稳定性顺序都是CuO/CeO2-A＞CuO/CeO2-B＞CuO/CeO2-C.联系表征结果,CuO/CeO2催化剂的活性与催化剂中CuO的颗粒度、CuO的微观应力和中等大小且与二氧化铈相互作用的CuO的数量等有关,而这些因素很大程度上受CeO2载体本身的热稳定性的影响.根据CV中扫描次数的增加,Cu2+←→Cu0氧化还原峰面积减小,推断CuO/CeO2催化剂在一定条件下氧化还原是不可逆的,这可能是其在反应气氛下经受温度循环之后活性降低的原因.     

K/CeO2催化剂上碳黑催化燃烧性能及稳定性（英文）

采用不同的钾盐前体制备了一系列K/CeO2催化剂,利用热重和程序升温氧化(TPO)等技术考察了其催化性能及稳定性.结果表明,K/CeO2催化剂可使碳黑完全燃烧温度降低近200oC.钾盐前体对催化活性和稳定性具有较大影响,由于硝酸钾熔点低,金属在载体上的流动性强,有利于催化剂与碳黑的有效接触,因而表现了较高的活性,三次TPO循环试验中催化活性稳定.碳酸钾的熔点高且碱性较强,使碳黑燃烧生成的CO2不可逆吸附在其表面,导致反应活性低,TPO循环实验表明其反应速率降低,失活明显.     

Surface structure and catalytic properties of MoO3/CeO2 and CuO/MoO3/CeO2

XRD, LRS, TPR and in situ NH(3) adsorption FT-IR were used to investigate the dispersion state of the copper oxide and molybdena species of MoO(3)/CeO(2) and CuO/MoO(3)/CeO(2) catalysts as well as their surface acidity. The results showed that the molybdena monolayer modification promoted the dispersion of CuO due to the formation of new tetrahedral vacancies. Meanwhile, CuO changed the structure of molybdenum species and then influenced the surface acidity of the samples. A detail discussion about the possible model of the surface structure of the catalyst was presented. In addition, combining with the in situ NH(3) adsorption FT-IR, the relationships between the activities for 'NO + NH(3) + O(2)' reaction and surface acid properties (Br?nsted and Lewis acid sites) of the catalysts were discussed.     

草酸盐热分解法制备CeO_2负载CuO催化剂用于CO优先氧化反应

采用草酸盐热分解-浸渍法制备了一系列不同CuO负载量的CuO/CeO_2催化剂,并将其用于CO优先氧化(PROX)研究.当CuO负载量为10%时催化剂活性最高,具有温区最宽且温度最低的CO完全转化窗口(96~160℃),并且当反应温度低于131℃时,产物中CO2选择性始终保持100%.研究结果表明,当负载少量CuO时,Cu~(2+)离子会进入CeO_2晶格形成固溶体;进一步提高CuO负载量会导致CuO在CeO_2表面聚集.对于CuO/CeO_2催化剂,形成Cu-Ce固溶体会在催化剂表面生成大量的表面氧空位和Ce3+;Ce3+则与Cu~(2+)作用产生更多的表面Cu~+,而Cu~+是CO PROX的活性中心,因此表面Ce3+含量的提高和Cu-Ce之间相互作用的增强是活性提高的主要原因.与普通沉淀-浸渍法制备的CuO/CeO_2催化剂相比,草酸盐热分解-浸渍法制备的催化剂更有利于Cu-Ce固溶体的形成,从而具有更多的表面Ce3+和更强的表面Cu-Ce相互作用,因此具有更高的CO优先氧化活性.     

氧化铈稳定的CuO簇在CO,C3H6和NO消除中的催化性能（英文）

研究了CuO与γ-Al2O3和CeO2的相互作用,并由此制备出能有效脱除CO,C3H6和NO的催化剂,考察了不同载体表面CuO簇的分散稳定性和耐老化性能.结果发现,随CuO负载量的增加,CuO簇因与CeO2载体的强相互作用而稳定存在;而在γ-Al2O3表面,CuO簇易聚集成较大的颗粒.另一方面,由于CeO2本身较差的热稳定性,表面分散的CuO在950oC高温处理后烧结.因此,基于γ-Al2O3载体优越的耐老化性能,在γ-Al2O3载体分散CeO2,然后再担载CuO,从而得到了稳定的CuO簇,所得催化剂比CuO/γ-A12O3和CuO/CeO2具有更好的催化性能和抗热老化性能.

铈和镧改性γ-Al2O3担载Pd催化剂的结构效应

分别以镧-铈、铈-镧顺序浸渍和镧铈共浸渍的方式在γ-Al2O3载体上引入助剂La2O3和CeO2，然后担载Pd制备了一系列催化剂.以甲醇分解为探针反应，采用XRD、EXAFS和XPS对催化剂的体相和表面结构进行表征，用BET法测定比表面积，并进行了吸附态CO的FTIR研究.结果表明,La2O3容易进入CeO2的晶格中，促进了CeO2在γ-Al2O3上的分散.但不同的La2O3、CeO2加入方式对活性组分Pd在改性载体上的分散度、优势暴露面及其与CeO2之间的相互作用产生不同的影响.关联甲醇分解性能测试结果说明,Pd在载体上的高度分散以及Pd和CeO2之间通过界面产生的强相互作用是催化剂具有高活性的关键.     

Sonochemically prepared Pt/CeO2 and its application as a catalyst in ethyl acetate combustion

Highly dispersed Pt nanoparticles were incorporated in CeO2 nanopowders by an ultrasound-assisted reduction procedure. The activity of the Pt/CeO2 catalysts was studied in the reaction of the ethyl acetate combustion, and complete conversion was achieved at low temperature. It was demonstrated that the higher dispersion of the CeO2 support, the better the performance of the Pt/CeO2 catalysts. The catalysts were characterized by XRD, TEM, HRTEM, EDX, BET, and XPS. The homogeneous incorporation of 2-4 nm Pt nanoparticles into the interparticle distance of the CeO2 nanopowders was demonstrated. The advantage of the sonochemical method for catalyst preparation, in comparison with the traditional incipient wetness impregnation, was explained as the result of the homogeneity and better dispersion of the active metal phase obtained by ultrasound irradiation.     

甲烷部分氧化制合成气反应Pt/Al_2O_3和Pt/CeO2/Al_2O_3催化剂的研究(英文)

研究了Ｐｔ／Ａｌ２Ｏ３和Ｐｔ／ＣｅＯ２／Ａｌ２Ｏ３催化剂对甲烷部分氧化制合成气反应的催化活性，发现Ｐｔ／ＣｅＯ２／Ａｌ２Ｏ３显示了比Ｐｔ／Ａｌ２Ｏ３更高的甲烷转化率和合成气选择性。用Ｈ２ＴＰＲ，Ｈ２ＴＰＤ，ＳＥＭ和ＸＲＤ等手段和技术对催化剂进行了表征。ＣｅＯ２与Ｐｔ之间存在较强的相互作用（ＳＭＳＩ），这种作用促进了Ｐｔ在催化剂表面的分散，抑制了Ｐｔ在催化剂表面的迁移，大大降低了催化剂在反应中的完全燃烧活性，提高了催化剂的部分氧化活性和选择性，避免了因催化剂床层局部温度过高而导致催化剂活性下降或失活，提高了催化剂的稳定性。同时，在反应过程中，ＣｅＯ２通过促进水蒸气变换反应（ＷＧＳＲ）的进行使反应体系迅速达到平衡，提高了催化剂对Ｈ２的选择性。     

Methane Decomposition over Ni/α-Al2O3 Promoted by La2O3 and CeO2

The decomposition of methane on Ni/a-Al2O3 modified by La2O3 and CeO2 with differ-ent contents has been investigated and the ralationship between methane decomposition and removal of carbon by CO2 over these catalyst has also been studied by pulse-chromatography. The catalysts were characterized by TPR and XRD. It was shown that Ni/a-Al2O3 could be promoted by adding La2O3, and the carbon species produced over this catalyst was activated and eliminated by CO2. But CeO2 would suppress the decomposition of methane over Ni crystallite. Both La2O3 and CeO2 can inhibit aggregation of the Ni particles. Decomposition of methane over the Ni-based catalysts is structure sensitive to a certain extent.

焙烧温度对CuO/γ-Al2O3和CeO2-CuO/γ-Al2O3催化剂NO还原活性的影响

用浸渍法制备了CuO/γ-Al2O3催化剂和CeO2改性的CeO2-CuO/γ-Al2O3催化剂,考察了焙烧温度对CuO/γ-Al2O3和CeO2-CuO/γ-Al2O3催化剂C3H6还原NO反应活性的影响,以及CeO2的添加量对CeO2-CuO/γ-Al2O3催化剂C3H6还原NO反应活性的影响。结果表明,在200 ℃～500 ℃的焙烧温度范围内,焙烧温度对CuO/γ-Al2O3催化剂的活性影响很小；在500 ℃～800 ℃的焙烧温度范围内,随着焙烧温度的升高CuO/γ-Al2O3催化剂的活性急剧下降,由XRD物相测定结果可知,归因于对反应表现惰性的尖晶石CuAl2O4相的生成。当焙烧温度为500 ℃时,CeO2的添加对CuO/γ-Al2O3催化剂的活性影响很小；当焙烧温度为800 ℃时,CeO2的添加对CuO/γ-Al2O3催化剂有明显的助催化作用,当Ce和Cu的摩尔比为1∶10时,NO转化率较为理想。     

Methane reforming With CO2 to syngas over CeO2-promoted Ni/Al2O3-ZrO2 catalysts Prepared Via a direct sol-gel process

CeO2-promoted Ni/Al2O3-ZrO2 (Ni/Al2O3-ZrO2-CeO2) catalysts were prepared by a direct sol-gel process with citric acid as gelling agent. The catalysts used for the methane reforming with CO2 was studied by infrared spectroscopy (IR), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), microscopic analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and temperature-programmed reduction (TPR). The catalytic performance for CO2 reforming of methane to synthesis gas was investigated in a continuous-flow micro-reactor under atmospheric pressure. TGA, IR, XRD and microscopic analysis show that the catalysts prepared by the direct sol-gel process consist of Ni particles with a nanostructure of around 5 nm and an amorphous-phase composite oxide support. There exists a chemical interaction between metallic Ni particles and supports, which makes metallic Ni well dispersed, highly active and stable. The addition of CeO2 effectively improves the dispersion and the stability of Ni particles of the prepared catalysts, and enhances the adsorption of CO2 on the surface of catalysts. The catalytic tests for methane reforming with CO2 to synthesis gas show that the Ni/Al2O3-ZrO2-CeO2 catalysts show excellent activity and stability compared with the Ni/Al2O3 catalyst. The excellent catalytic activity and stability of the Ni/Al2O3-ZrO2-CeO2 are attributed to the highly, uniformly and stably dispersed small metallic Ni particles, the high reducibility of the Ni oxides and the interaction between metallic Ni particles and the composite oxide supports.     

CO Selective Oxidation in Hydrogen-Rich Gas over Copper-Series Catalysts

The performances of CO selective oxidation in hydrogen-rich gas over four catalytic systems of CuO/ZrO2, CuO/MnO2, CuO/CoO and CuO/CeO2 were compared. The reducibility of these catalysts and the effect of CuO and CeO2 molar ratio of CuO/CeO2 catalysts on the activity of selective CO oxidation are investigated by XRD and TPR methods. The results show that the catalysts with the exception of CuO/ZrO2 have the interactions between CuO and CoO, CeO2 or MnO2, which result in a decrease in the reduction temperature. Among the catalysts studied, CuO/ZrO2 catalyst shows the lowest catalytic activity while CuO/CeO2 catalyst exhibits the best catalytic performance. The CuO(10%)/CeO2 catalyst attains the highest CO conversion and selectivity at 140 and 160℃. The addition of 9% H2O in the reactant feed decreases the activity of CuO/CeO2 catalyst but increases its CO selectivity.
