Preparation, Characterization of Hydrotalcites and the Catalytic Properties in Synthesis of o-Phenylphenol over Pt／CHT

Mg/Al mixed oxides with molar ratios of 2-6 of Mg to Al used as supports for platinum catalysts were obtained by the thermal decomposition method. The effect of the composition of the mixed oxides on the physicochemical properties was studied by TPD, nitrogen sorption, XRD and TG-DTA characterization methods. The synthesis of o-phenylphenol (OPP) from a dimer (obtained from cyclohexanone condensation) was investigated over Pt/CHT catalysts and compared with those over Pt/MgO and Pt/Al2O3 catalysts. These catalysts show a high activity and selectivity for OPP, with a conversion reaching 93.8% and a selectivity reaching 87.9% in some experiments. For Pt/CHTx catalysts, the calcined hydrotalcites exhibited strong base sites, which were necessary to catalyze the synthesis of OPP.     

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.     

Surface Acidity/Basicity and Catalytic Reactivity of CeO2/7-Al2O3 Catalysts for the Oxidative Dehydrogenation of Ethane with Carbon Dioxide to Ethylene

Dehydrogenation of ethane to ethylene in CO2 was investigated over CeO2/γ-Al2O3 catalysts at 700℃ in a conventional flow reactor operating at atmospheric pressure. XRD, BET and microcalori-metric adsorption techniques were used to characterize the structure and surface acidity/basicity of the CeO2/γ-Al2O3 catalysts. The results show that the surface acidity decreased while the surface basicity increased after the addition of CeO2 to γ-A12O3. Accordingly, the activity of the hydrogenation reaction of CO2 increased, which might be responsible for the enhanced conversion in the dehydrogenation of ethane to ethylene. The highest ethane conversion obtained was about 15% for the 25%CeO2/γ-Al2O3. The selectivity to ethylene was high for all the CeO2,γ-A12O3 and CeO2/γ-Al2O3 catalysts.     

Effect of Transition Metals on Selective Hydrogenation of Cinnamaldehyde over Pt／ZrO2 Catalysts

The effect of transition metals (Cr, Mn, Fe, Co and Ni) on the hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde over Pt/ZrO2 catalysts was studied in ethanol at 343K under 2.0MPa H2 pressure. PtCo/ZrO2 and PtFe/ZrO2 catalysts exhibit high selectivity and activity of hydrogenation for C=O (93.8% at 87.3% conversion and 83.6% at 88.6% conversion, respectively), and PtNi/ZrO2 exhibits high selectivity of hydrogenation for C=C (64.3% at 70.6% conversion). In the presence of trace H2O and NaOH, over the PtNi/ZrO2 (0.4wt%Ni) catalyst the selectivity to hydrocinnamalde hydereaches 90.6% and the conversion of cinnamaldehyde is 90.5%.     

Autothermal Reforming of Methane over Ni Catalysts Supported on CuO-ZrO2-CeO2-Al2O3

Ni catalysts supported on various mixed oxides of Al2O3 with rare earth oxide and transitional metal oxides were synthesized. The studies focused on the measurement of the autothermal reforming of methane to hydrogen over Ni catalysts supported on the mixed oxide ZrxCe30-xAl70Oδ (x=5, 10, 15). The catalytic performance of Ni/Zr10Ce20Al70Oδ was better than that of other catalysts. XRD results showed that the addition of Zr to Ni/Ce30Al70Oδ prevented the formation of NiAl2O4 and facilitated the dispersion of NiO. Effects of CuO addition to Zr10Ce20Al70Oδ were also investigated. The activity of Ni catalyst supported on CuO-ZrO2-CeO2-Al2O3 was somewhat affected and the Ni/Cu5Zr10Ce20Al65Oδ showed the best catalytic performance with the highest CH4 conversion, yield of H2, selectivity for H2 and H2/CO production ratio in operation temperatures ranging from 650 to 750℃.     

Selective Oxidation of Toluene with Hydrogen Peroxide Catalyzed by V-Mo-based Catalyst

The selective catalytic oxidation of toluene with hydrogen peroxide over V-Mo-based catalysts under mild conditions was studied.The promotion effect of Mo on the catalysts was studied with V/Al2O3 and Mo/Al2O3 as reference samples.The catalysts were characterized by XRD,TPR,and XPS techniques.The results show that the addition of Mo to V/Al2O3 may change the distribution of V species on Al2O3 surface.Over V-Mo/Al2O3 catalyst,highly dispersed amorphous V species facilitates benzaldehyde formation,and crystalline V2O5 species increases the conversion of toluene but decreases the selectivity to benzaldehyde,while AlVMoO7 species favors both the conversion of toluene and the formation of cresols.The yield of benzaldehyde depends remarkably on the surface O/Al and Mo/V atomic ratios,and gets to a maximum value of 13.2% with a selectivity of 79.5% at an O/Al atomic ratio of 3.0 and Mo/V atomic ratio of 0.7.     

High Activity SnO2／Al2O3 Catalyst for NO Reduction in the Presence of Oxygen

The novel sol-gel SnO2/Al2O3 catalysts for selective catalytic reduction NO by propene under lean burn condition were investigated. The results showed thatthe maximum NO conversion was 82% on the SnO2/Al2O3 (5%Sn) catalyst, and the presence of H20 and SO2 improved the catalytic activity at low temperature. The catalytic activity of NO2 reduction by propene is much higher than that of NO at the entire temperature range, and the maximum NO2 conversion reached nearly 100% around the temperature 425℃.     

Preparation of Highly Active Pt-K/γ-Al2O3 Catalyst for o-Phenylphenol Synthesis from o-Cyclohexenyl-cyclohexanone Dehydrogenation

0.5%Pt-K/γ-Al2O3 catalysts for the synthesis of o-phenylphenol（OPP） from o-cyclohexenyl-cyclohexanone （dimer） dehydrogenation were prepared by means of a two subsequent impregnation method. The effects of catalyst preparation parameters, such as K promoters, calcination, and reduction conditions, were investigated. The results showed that the addition of K2SO4 to Pt/γ-Al2O3 catalyst notably promoted the selectivity of OPP, and its optimum content was found to be 6% in mass fraction. The higher activity was obtained when Pt/γ-Al2O3 catalyst was calcined in nitrogen atmosphere at 400--500 ℃ and then reduced at the same temperature for 3 h in hydrogen atmosphere. The conversion of the dimer and the selectivity of OPP were always above 99% and 90%, respectively, over 0.5%Pt-6% K2SO4/γ-Al2O3 catalyst during the pilot scale test of 8000 h.     

Methane Decomposition over Ni/α-Al_2O_3 Promoted by La_2O_3 and CeO_2

The decomposition of methane on Ni/a-Al2O3 modified by La2O3 and CeO2 with different 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.

The Ru/Al_2O_3 catalysts modified with metal oxide(K_2O and La_2O_3)were prepared via incipient wetness impregnation method from RuCl_3·nH_2O mixed with nitrate loading on Al_2O3 support. The activity of catalysts was evaluated under simulative conditions for the preferential oxidation of CO (CO-PROX)from the hydrogen-rich gas streams produced by reforming gas,and the performances of catalysts were investigated by XRD and TPR.The results showed that the activity temperature of the modified catalysts Ru-K_2O/Al_2O3 and Ru-La_2O_3/Al_2O_3 were lowered approximately 30℃compared with pure Ru/Al_2O_3,and the activity temperature range was widened.The conversion of CO on Ru-K_2O/Al_2O_3 and Ru-La_2O_3/Al_2O_3 was above 99% at 140-160℃,suitable to remove CO in a hydrogen-rich gas and the selectivity of Ru-La_2O_3/Al_2O_3 was higher than that of Ru-K_2O/Al_2O_3 in the active temperature range. Slight methanation reaction was detected at 220℃and above.
