Catalytic upgrading of lignin derived bio-oil model compound using mesoporous solid catalysts

The catalytic upgrading of a lignin-derived bio-oil model compound, the hydrodeoxygenation of guaiacol, was performed using mesoporous solid catalysts. Platinum supported on silica and mesoporous silica (SBA-15 and KIT-6) were used as catalysts. The level of platinum incorporation and aluminum grafting did not alter the physical properties of the supports, such as surface area and pore size distribution. On the other hand, these treatments drastically affected the catalytic activities. A catalyst with platinum alone converted guaiacol to oxygenate compounds. In contrast, a series of catalysts with both platinum incorporation and aluminum grafting enhanced hydrodeoxygenation by converting guaiacol into hydrocarbons (cyclohexane and benzene). A comparison of the catalyst supports revealed the ordered mesoporous silica, SBA-15 and KIT-6, with high surface area, to have a higher hydrocarbon yield than conventional silica.

Investigation of Fe−Ni Mixed‐Oxide Catalysts for the Reduction of NO by CO: Physicochemical Properties and Catalytic Performance

A series of Fe?Ni mixed‐oxide catalysts were synthesized by using the sol–gel method for the reduction of NO by CO. These Fe?Ni mixed‐oxide catalysts exhibited tremendously enhanced catalytic performance compared to monometallic catalysts that were prepared by using the same method. The effects of Fe/Ni molar ratio and calcination temperature on the catalytic activity were examined and the physicochemical properties of the catalysts were characterized by using XRD, Raman spectroscopy, N₂‐adsorption/‐desorption isotherms, temperature‐programmed reduction with hydrogen (H₂‐TPR), temperature‐programmed desorption of nitric oxide (NO‐TPD), and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results indicated that the reduction behavior, surface oxygen species, and surface chemical valence states of iron and nickel in the catalysts were the key factors in the NO elimination. Fe_0.5Ni_0.5O_x that was calcined at 250 °C exhibited excellent catalytic activity of 100 % NO conversion at 130 °C and a lifetime of more than 40 hours. A plausible mechanism for the reduction of NO by CO over the Fe?Ni mixed‐oxide catalysts is proposed, based on XPS and in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) analyses.     

Robust hydrogen production from HCOOH over amino-modified KIT-6-confined PdIr alloy nanoparticles

Formic acid（FA）, which can be produced via CO2reduction and biomass conversion, has received extensive interest as a convenient and safe hydrogen carrier due to its wide range of sources, renewable,high hydrogen content（4.4 wt%）, and convenient storage/transportation.

Synthesis, characterization and activity of Co and Ni catalysts supported on AlMe (Me?=?Zn, Zr, Ti) mixed oxides

Binary Al?CTi, Al?CZr and Al?CZn oxides, prepared by the sol?Cgel method were used as supports of catalytic systems. The catalysts were prepared by impregnation of these supports with the low cost Co or Ni nitrate salts and subsequent calcination at 700?°C. Catalysts have been characterized by S_BET, XRD and TPR techniques. The catalysts were tested in ethanol partial oxidation using a fixed-bed quartz reactor at atmospheric pressure and temperature at 600?°C. In test reactions a constant feed composition was used with O₂/EtOH molar ratio of 0.75 in nitrogen balance. The catalytic performance of the systems depends on type of support and type of promoter. Hydrogen and CO are the predominant products beside some by-products in different quantities (CO₂, methane, ethylene, acetaldehyde, acetone, acetic acid). The Co and Ni catalysts supported on AlZn binary oxide showed the highest selectivity to hydrogen and to carbon monoxide with full ethanol conversion. Selectivity of hydrogen follows the order of Co(Ni)AlZn?>?Co(Ni)AlTi?>?Co(Ni)AlZr. The best performance was obtained by NiAlZn catalyst with 89?% hydrogen selectivity.

Effects of Preparation Method on the Performance of Ni/Al2O3 Catalysts for Hydrogen Production by Bio-Oil Steam Reforming

Steam reforming of bio-oil derived from the fast pyrolysis of biomass is an economic and renewable process for hydrogen production. The main objective of the present work has been to investigate the effects of the preparation method of Ni/Al₂O₃ catalysts on their performance in hydrogen production by bio-oil steam reforming. The Ni/Al₂O₃ catalysts were prepared by impregnation, co-precipitation, and sol?Cgel methods. XRD, XPS, H₂-TPR, SEM, TEM, TG, and N₂ physisorption measurements were performed to characterize the texture and structure of the catalysts obtained after calcination and after their subsequent use. Ethanol and bio-oil model compound were selected for steam reforming to evaluate the catalyst performance. The catalyst prepared by the co-precipitation method was found to display better performance than the other two. Under the optimized reaction conditions, an ethanol conversion of 99% and a H₂ yield of 88% were obtained.

采用共浸渍法分别制备了用Mg、Ce、V、La金属改性的Ni/KIT-6催化剂,用于CO_2甲烷化反应的研究。利用N_2吸附-脱附、X射线衍射、H_2程序升温还原、H_2程序升温脱附、透射电镜手段对催化剂进行了表征,考查了不同金属助剂对Ni/KIT-6的影响。结果表明,在KIT-6载体上活性金属和助剂的分散度都非常高,Ni粒子的分散度主要取决于KIT-6载体高度有序的介孔结构的限域作用,不受助剂金属添加的影响。各助剂金属的加入几乎不影响Ni/KIT-6催化剂的表面形貌,但对Ni金属还原的难易程度和还原度有影响。在研究的几种金属中,V金属使催化剂中Ni金属的还原最容易,还原度更高,且V金属的氧化物具有改变CO_2反应机理的作用,使得甲烷化反应进行的最好。用V改性后的催化剂与未改性的催化剂相比,CO_2的转化率提高了3.7%,CH_4的选择性提高了11.6%,CH_4的选择性达到了100%。     

H2 Production via the Steam Reforming of Methanol Over NiAl-layered Double Hydroxide Derived Catalysts

This article reviews our recent results on the steam reforming of methanol over a series of NiAl-layered double hydroxide catalysts prepared by the co-precipitation method. The influence of calcination temperature, reaction temperature, pretreatment temperature and atmospheres, inorganic salt ions and steam to methanol ratio on the catalytic performance was studied. The major products for many of the catalysts were H₂, CO, CO₂ and CH₄. However, the product composition varies significantly with the experimental parameters and high selectivity for CO₂ and H₂ was observed under various conditions, showing the potential of Ni based catalysts for the production of highly pure hydrogen.     

Ni掺杂的Cu-ZnO催化剂甘油加氢反应性能

采用浸渍法制备了Ni掺杂的Cu-Zn O催化剂,采用多种物理化学手段研究了其化学物理性质及甘油加氢制取1,2-丙二醇反应催化性能。结果发现,金属Ni助剂的引入可以进一步优化Ni-Cu-Zn O催化剂的甘油加氢生成1,2-丙二醇的反应活性。少量金属Ni的加入,Ni-Cu-Zn O催化剂的甘油转化率变化不大,生成1,2-丙二醇的选择性明显增加。而进一步增加Ni含量到nNi/nCu=0.5,Ni含量过高会导致Ni-Cu-Zn O催化剂中实际Cu原子的量减少,从而导致甘油转化率下降。Ni掺杂的Cu-Zn O催化剂甘油加氢性能稳定性较好,在反应102 h后没有明显变化。     

Metallic nickel supported on mesoporous silica as catalyst for hydrodeoxygenation: effect of pore size and structure

Catalytic hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of anisole, a methoxy-rich lignin-derived bio-oil model compound, was carried out over a series of Ni-containing (5, 10, 20, and 30 wt%) catalysts with commercial silica and ordered mesoporous silica SBA-15 as support. Both supports and catalysts were characterized by N₂ adsorption–desorption isotherms, X-ray diffraction, CO chemisorption, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Catalytic reaction was performed at 250 °C and 10 bar H₂ pressure. Depending on the catalyst support used and the content of active metal, the catalytic activity and product distribution changed drastically. Increase of the nickel loading resulted in increased anisole conversion and C₆ hydrocarbon (benzene and cyclohexane) yield. However, loading more Ni than 20 wt% resulted in a decrease of both conversion and C₆ yield due to agglomeration of Ni particles. In addition, Ni/SBA-15 samples exhibited much stronger catalytic activity and selectivity toward C₆ hydrocarbon products compared with Ni/silica catalysts. The differences in catalytic activity among these catalysts can be attributed to the effect of the pore size and pore structure of mesoporous SBA-15. SBA-15 can accommodate more Ni species inside channels than conventional silica due to its high pore volume with uniform pore structure, leading to high HDO catalytic activity.

Effect of the preparation conditions on the physicochemical and catalytic properties of Ni<Subscript>2</Subscript>P/SiO<Subscript>2</Subscript> catalysts

The effect of the reduction conditions on the physicochemical and catalytic properties of Ni₂P/SiO₂ catalysts was studied. The catalysts were prepared by impregnating silica with a solution of nickel acetate and diammonium hydrogen phosphate followed by drying, calcination, and temperature-programmed reduction. The Ni₂P/SiO₂ catalysts were reduced prior to hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of methyl palmitate in the catalytic reactor (in situ) at temperatures of 550, 600, and 650 °С for 3 h and at 600 °С for 1 and 6 h. The reduction temperature and reduction time were shown to affect the conversion of methyl palmitate, and the optimal reduction conditions of the Ni₂P/SiO₂ catalysts were found. The Ni₂P/SiO₂ catalyst synthesized according to a widely used preparation method, including steps of passivation and rereduction at 450 °С in addition to the reduction step, is inferior in activity to the samples prepared in situ.     

Highly efficient mesoporous WO<Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis></Subscript>/KIT-6 catalysts for oxidative desulfurization of dibenzothiophene with hydrogen peroxide

Oxidative desulfurization (ODS) of organic compounds containing sulfur element from a model oil was performed using tungsten oxide catalysts supported on mesoporous silica with cubic Ia3d mesostructure, well-defined mesopores (7.2 nm), high surface area (719 m²/g), and three-dimensional pore network (WO _x /KIT-6).

Sulfur-containing organic compounds, such as dibenzothiophene, 4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene, and benzothiophene, were completely (100 %) removed from the model oil over 10 wt% WO _x /KIT-6 catalyst in 2 h. In addition, the catalyst could be reused several times with only slight decrease in catalytic activity.

Hydrodeoxygenation of Anisole over Ni/α-Al2O3 Catalyst

Ni-based catalysts supported on di erent supports (α-Al₂O₃,γ-Al₂O₃, SiO2, TiO₂, and ZrO₂) were prepared by impregnation. Effects of supports on catalytic performance were tested using hydrodeoxygenation reaction (HDO) of anisole as model reaction. Ni/α-Al₂O₃ was found to be the highest active catalyst for HDO of anisole. Under the optimal conditions, the anisole conversion is 93.25% and the hydrocarbon yield is 90.47%. Catalyst characteriza-tion using H₂-TPD method demonstrates that Ni/α-Al₂O₃ catalyst possesses more amount of active metal Ni than those of other investigated catalysts, which can enhance the cat-alytic activity for hydrogenation. Furthermore, it is found that the Ni/α-Al₂O₃ catalyst has excellent repeatability, and the carbon deposited on the surface of catalyst is negligible.     

Highly Selective Vapor-Phase Acylation of Veratrole over H_3PO_4/TiO_2-ZrO_2: Using Ethyl Acetate as a Green and Efficient Acylating Agent

A simple sol‐gel method with and without surfactant was applied to prepare TiO₂‐ZrO₂ mixed oxides containing Ti and Zr at a molar ratio of 1:1. Several catalysts containing w=15% –35% H₃PO₄ were set up using these mixed oxides. The physical and chemical properties of catalysts were investigated by BET, SEM and pyridine adsorption‐desorption. The catalytic performance of each material was determined for the vapor‐phase acylation of veratrole (1,2‐dimethoxybenzene) to 3,4‐dimethoxyacetophenone (3,4‐DMAP), which was found to be the major product of the reaction of veratrole with ethyl acetate, with alkylated products being the minor products. 2,3‐Dimethoxyacetophenone (2,3‐DMAP) was not detected in the product stream. In the best experimental conditions, the alkylated products were less than 0.7%. This reaction may represent an environmentally friendly alternative to use the ethyl acetate as the acylating reagent. The feed molar ratios of veratrole/ethyl acetate were varied over a wide range of 0.1 to 1, and the optimum feed ratio of veratrole/ethyl acetate was 1:3. Space velocity employed in the veratrole acylation reported as WHSV (veratrole) was 1.2 h^?1. The acylation reactions were carried out in the temperature range of 423 to 673 K and the optimum H₃PO₄ content for acylation was w=15%.
