助剂对Co/Al2O3催化剂浆态床费托合成反应性能影响

考察了ZrO₂、Ru或Pt助剂对Co/Al₂O₃催化剂结构及浆态床费托合成反应性能的影响。实验结果表明,添加ZrO₂助剂可阻止或降低难还原铝酸钴的形成、促进催化剂的还原、提高Co/Al₂O₃催化剂对费托合成反应的催化活性、降低甲烷选择性并提高C₅₊烃选择性。H₂-TPR表征结果表明,少量Ru或Pt助剂均能降低Co-ZrO₂/Al₂O₃催化剂中钴物种还原温度(Co₃O₄→CoO和CoO→Co⁰),提高催化剂的还原度,催化剂呈现出良好的CO加氢反应活性。此外,催化剂组分间浸渍次序对费托合成反应性能有重要影响,载体γ-Al₂O₃先浸渍Zr组分,可有效抑制难还原化合物形成;Co、Ru组分共浸渍加强了Co和Ru组分密切接触程度,更利于钴物种的还原;Co、Pt组分依次浸渍更利于活性组分的均匀分布,催化剂具有最佳的费托合成反应性能。     

高比表面积双孔SiO2负载钴基催化剂费托合成反应性能研究

载体的结构可以显著影响钴基费托合成催化剂的活性和产物选择性。大孔结构载体可以改善反应物和产物的传质情况,提升CO转化活性和C₅₊产物选择性;高比表面积载体有利于使负载的金属分散,提高催化剂的金属利用效率和稳定性。然而,要获得同时具备高比表面积和大孔结构特征的载体相对困难。本研究采用结构导向水解法,合成了一种比表面积达1103.2 m²/g的介孔(2.9 nm)-大孔(63.8 nm)双孔二氧化硅(BP-SiO₂)载体,研究了其负载钴催化剂的费托合成反应性能。结果表明,相对规整介孔SBA-15分子筛负载的钴催化剂Co/SBA-15,210℃反应时,催化剂Co/BP-SiO₂的CO转化率提高33.3%,CH₄选择性降低30.1%,C₅₊选择性增加到80.0%,稳定性显著增强。     

焙烧及还原温度对 Co-Pt-ZrO2/γ-Al2O3催化剂费托合成反应性能的影响

采用浸渍法制备了Co-Pt-ZrO₂/γ-Al₂O₃催化剂,对其进行了BET、XRD和TPR等表征,并在浆态床反应器上考察了焙烧温度和还原温度对催化剂费托合成反应性能的影响。结果表明,焙烧温度过高,容易造成Co物种和载体间的相互作用增强,使部分氧化钴颗粒聚集或烧结,导致催化剂的F-T合成反应活性和C₅₊烃选择性降低。还原温度较低时,钴物种不能充分还原,CO加氢活性低,甲烷选择性高,重质烃选择性低;还原温度过高,则可能造成活性物种的烧结,反而降低了催化剂的活性和重质烃选择性。在原料气n(H₂)/n(CO)=2.0、483 K、2.4 MPa和空速3.6 L/(gcat·h)的条件下,31.08%Co～0.11%Pt～7.16%ZrO₂/Al₂O₃催化剂在673 K焙烧。纯H₂下653 K还原后,其费托性能最佳;CO转化率为27.0%,C₅₊的选择性为83.0%。     

还原-氧化-还原过程对Co-ZrO_2共沉淀催化剂结构及其费托合成反应性能的影响

采用程序升温还原、氮吸附、X射线衍射、Raman、XPS和H2-TPD等方法研究了还原(400℃,氢还原)-氧化(室温,暴露空气中氧化)-还原(250℃或400℃,氢还原)预处理过程对Co-ZrO2共沉淀催化剂结构的影响,考察了催化剂在不同反应器中的费托反应性能。结果表明,催化剂还原氧化前后钴物种均以Co3O4形式存在,颗粒直径无明显变化;还原氧化处理后催化剂表面钴物种含量有所下降,但H2-TPD结果显示催化剂经还原-氧化-还原后氢吸附量增加。另外,还原氧化过程能够降低催化剂表层钴物种的还原温度。反应结果表明,催化剂经还原氧化还原处理后活性明显增加,甲烷选择性降低。     

还原温度对Fe-Mo催化剂性质及F-T合成性能的影响

研究了还原温度对Fe-Mo催化剂性质及费托(F-T)合成性能的影响。采用N₂物理吸附、X射线衍射、穆斯堡尔谱和H₂程序升温脱附技术对催化剂进行了表征。结果表明,随还原温度升高,金属铁晶粒粒径增大,金属铁上的H₂吸附量先升后降;催化剂还原度提高,反应态催化剂碳化铁含量递增。催化剂F-T合成性能在280 ℃、1.5 MPa、2 000 h^-1、合成气H₂/CO比为2.0条件下在固定床反应器中测试。反应结果表明,随还原温度提高,催化剂接近稳态时的活性和重质烃选择性(C₅⁺)先升后降,而甲烷选择性则先降后升。350 ℃还原催化剂具有最佳F-T合成反应性能。

通过浸渍和高温焙烧,制得表面附着CoAl₂O₄微晶颗粒的改性Al₂O₃载体,并采用等体积浸渍法制备负载型Co基催化剂。结合 N₂物理吸附、XRD、H₂-TPR、XPS及H₂化学吸附等表征手段,研究改性载体及其负载钴基催化剂的织构特征;采用费托合成反应评价其催化性能。结果表明,Al₂O₃改性后,表面CoAl₂O₄的存在有效减少了载体与活性组分Co的相互作用,显著提高了催化剂的还原度和催化活性。载体的改性量在20%左右达到最佳值,继续增加,催化剂还原度和活性基本不再升高。载体改性促使催化剂CH₄选择性有所降低,C₅₊选择性略有提高。     

Co/HMS和Co/SiO2催化剂的表征及在费-托合成反应中的催化性能

 HMS介孔分子筛经水热处理得到无定形SiO2,分别以无定形SiO2和HMS为载体,用浸渍法制得了15%Co/SiO2和15%Co/HMS催化剂. 研究表明: 氧化态Co/SiO2和Co/HMS催化剂中的钴物种以Co3O4形式存在,且Co3O4晶粒粒径均较相应催化剂的孔径大,故有部分钴物种存在于催化剂外表面; 氧化态Co/HMS催化剂中的钴物种堵塞孔道较为严重; Co/HMS催化剂中存在较强的金属-载体相互作用,因此Co/HMS催化剂较Co/SiO2催化剂难还原; Co/HMS催化剂还原后具有较高的钴分散度,使其具有优异的费-托合成反应性能.

以三甲基氯硅烷为硅烷化试剂,对硅胶进行不同程度硅烷化预处理,采用浸渍法制备了其负载的Rh-Mn-Li催化剂,用于CO加氢制C₂含氧化合物的反应,并运用红外光谱、N₂吸附-脱附法、C含量测定、透射电镜、H₂程序升温还原和程序升温表面反应等手段对载体和催化剂进行了表征。结果表明,制得的不同硅烷化程度硅胶织构性质变化不大,它们负载的催化剂上Rh平均粒径均在3nm左右,硅烷化对催化剂吸附CO的形态和Rh的还原性能的影响均很小,但随着载体硅烷化程度的提高,催化剂上Rh解离CO的能力增加,因而其活性逐渐增加,且不影响C₂含氧化合物的选择性。     

Effect of catalyst confinement and pore size on Fischer-Tropsch synthesis over cobalt supported on carbon nanotubes

This paper studies the impact of structure of cobalt catalysts supported on carbon nanotubes(CNT) on the activity and product selectivity of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis(FTS) reaction.Three types of CNT with average pore sizes of 5,11,and 17 nm were used as the supports.The catalysts were prepared by selectively impregnating cobalt nanoparticles either inside or outside CNT.The TPR results indicated that the catalyst with Co particles inside CNT was easier to be reduced than those outside CNT,and the reducibility of cobalt oxide particles inside the CNT decreased with the cobalt oxide particle size increasing.The activity of the catalyst with Co inside CNT was higher than that of catalysts with Co particles outside CNT.Smaller CNT pore size also appears to enhance the catalyst reduction and FTS activity due to the little interaction between cobalt oxide with carbon and the enhanced electron shift on the non-planar carbon tube surface.     

Cobalt catalysts supported on silica nanotubes for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis

Silica nanotubes(SNT) have been synthesized using carbon nanotubes(CNT) as a template.Silica-coated carbon nanotubes(SNT-CNT) and SNT were loaded with a cobalt catalyst for use in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis(FTS).The catalysts were prepared by incipient wetness impregnation and characterized by N2 physisorption,X-ray diffraction(XRD),hydrogen temperature programmed reduction(H2-TPR) and transmission electron microscopy(TEM).FTS performance was evaluated in a fixed-bed reactor at 493 K and 1.0 MPa.Co/CNT and Co/SNT catalysts showed higher activity than Co/SNT-CNT in FTS because of the smaller cobalt particle size,higher dispersion and stronger reducibility.The results also showed that structure of the support affects the product selectivity in FTS.The synergistic effects of cobalt particle size,catalytic activity and diffusion limitations as a consequence of its small average pore size lead to medium selectivity to C5+ hydrocarbons and CH4 over Co/SNT-CNT.On the other hand,the Co/CNT showed higher CH4 selectivity and lower C5+ selectivity than Co/SNT,due to its smaller average pore size and cobalt particle size.     

Characterization and catalytic behavior of EDTA modified silica nanosprings (NS)-supported cobalt catalyst for Fischer-Tropsch CO-hydrogenation

The effect of ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid(EDTA) modification on the physico-chemical properties and catalytic performance of silica nanosprings(NS) supported cobalt(Co) catalyst was investigated in the conversion of syngas(H~(2+) CO) to hydrocarbons by Fischer-Tropsch synthesis(FTS). The unmodified Co/NS and modified Co/NS-EDTA catalysts were synthesized via an impregnation method. The prepared Co/NS and Co/NS-EDTA catalysts were characterized before the FTS reaction by BET surface area,X-ray diffraction(XRD),transmission electron microscopy(TEM),temperature programmed reduction(TPR),X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),differential thermal analysis(DTA) and thermogravimetric analysis(TGA) in order to find correlations between physico-chemical properties of catalysts and catalytic performance. FTS was carried out in a quartz fixedbed microreactor(H_2/CO of 2 ∶1,230 ℃ and atmospheric pressure) and the products trapped and analyzed by GC-TCD and GC-MS to determine CO conversion and reaction selectivity. The experimental results indicated that the modified Co/NS-EDTA catalyst displayed a more-dispersed phase of Co_3O_4 nanoparticles(10.9%) and the Co_3O_4 average crystallite size was about 12.4 nm. The EDTA modified catalyst showed relatively higher CO conversion(70.3%) and selectivity toward C_(6-18)(JP-8,Jet A and diesel) than the Co/NS catalyst(C_(6-14))(JP-4).     

Effect of the pore size of Co/SBA-15 isomorphically substituted with zirconium on its catalytic performance in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis

Cobalt catalysts supported on a series of mesoporous SBA-15 materials isomorphically substituted with zirconium (Zr/Si atomic ratio = 1/20) with different pore sizes (5.7 nm, 7.8 nm, 11.6 nm, 17.6 nm) have been synthesized. The catalysts were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, ²⁹Si solid state magic angle spinning (MAS) NMR, N₂ adsorption-desorption measurements, X-ray powder diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, H₂-temperature programmed reduction, H₂-temperature programmed desorption and O₂ titrations. The results indicated that larger pore size led to weaker interactions between cobalt and the supports which lowered the temperature of both reduction steps (Co₃O₄→CoO and CoO→Co⁰). The catalytic performances of the catalysts in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) were tested in a fixed bed reactor. It was found that the FTS catalytic activity and product selectivity depended strongly on the pore size of the catalysts. The catalyst with a pore size of 7.8 nm showed the best FTS activity, and the catalyst with a pore size of 17.6 nm showed the highest selectivity to C₁₂–C₂₀ and C₂₀₊ hydrocarbons.     

多级孔ZSM-5负载的钴催化剂的费-托合成催化性能

采用水蒸气辅助转晶(SAC)法合成了粒径均一(180 nm)的纳米ZSM-5颗粒,颗粒间堆积形成大量的开放介孔,与ZSM-5的微孔共同形成多级孔结构。以该材料为载体采用满孔浸渍法制备了负载量为15%(质量分数)的钴催化剂。采用XRD、SEM、TEM、N_2物理吸附-脱附等表征技术对多级孔ZSM-5载体及其负载催化剂的形貌和结构进行了表征,并对催化剂的费-托合成催化性能进行了测试。结果表明,相比于大颗粒的ZSM-5和商业ZSM-5,多级孔ZSM-5负载的钴催化剂的费-托合成活性最高,CH_4选择性最低,C_(5-20)产物的选择性高达68.9%,这归因于多级孔ZSM-5的介孔孔道有效地促进反应过程中产物的传质扩散以及ZSM-5微孔骨架上的酸中心促进了长链烃产物的二次加氢裂解。     

Synthesis of SWNTs over nanoporous Co-Mo/MgO and using as a catalyst support for selective hydrogenation of syngas to hydrocarbon

Single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) with high surface area were synthesized over nanoporous Co-Mo/MgO by a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. The SWNTs were used as catalyst support for selective hydrogenation of syngas to hydrocarbons. Here an extensive study of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) on CNT-supported cobalt catalysts with different amounts of cobalt loading up to 40 wt% is reported. The catalysts were characterized by different methods including N2 adsorption-desorption, X-ray diffraction, hydrogen chemisorption, inductively coupled plasma (ICP) and temperature-programmed reduction. Enhancement of the reducibility of Co3O4 to CoO, CoO to Coo and small cobalt oxide particles, dispersion of the cobalt, and activity and selectivity of FTS were investigated and compared with a conventional support. The CNT supported catalysts achieve a high dispersion and high loading of the active metal, cobalt in particular, so that the bulk formation of cobalt metal, which tends to occur in conventional support, can be avoided. The results showed that the specific activity of CNT supported catalysts increase significantly (there is a two fold increase in CO Conversion per gram of the active metal) with respect to the conventional supported catalyst.

Effects of pretreatment and reduction on the Co/Al2O3 catalyst for CO hydrogenation

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of preadsorbed CO at different temperatures, calcination temperatures, the combined influence of reduction temperature and time, and pretreatment using hydrogen or syngas as reduction agents on the F-T synthesis （FTS） activity and selectivity of Co/Al2O3 catalyst. The reactivity of the carbon species at higher preadsorption temperature with H2 in TPSR decreased, whereas the carbon-containing species showed higher reactivity over Co/Al2O3 catalyst with low calcination temperature. This agreed well with the order of catalytic activity for F-T synthesis on this catalyst. The catalytic activity of the catalyst varied with reduction temperature and time remarkably. CODEX optimization gave an optimum reduction temperature of 756 K and reduction time of 6.2 h and estimated C5＋ yield perfectly. The pretreatment of Co/Al2O3 catalyst with different reduction agents （hydrogen or syngas） showed important influences on the catalytic performance. A high CO conversion and C5＋ yield were obtained on the catalyst reduced by hydrogen, whereas methane selectivity on the catalyst reduced by syngas was much higher than that on the catalyst reduced by hydrogen.
