Praseodymium Oxide Modified CeO2/Al2O3 Catalyst for Selective Catalytic Reduction of NO by NH3

A series of CeO₂/Al₂O₃ catalysts was modified with praseodymium oxide using an extrusion method. The catalytic activities of the obtained catalysts were measured for the selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH₃ to screen suitable addition of praseodymium oxide. These samples were characterized by XRD, N₂‐BET, NH₃‐TPD, NO‐TPD, Py‐IR, H₂‐TPR, Raman spectra and XPS, respectively. Results showed the optimal catalyst with the Pr/Ce molar ratio of 0.10 exhibited more than 90% NO conversion in a wide temperature range of 290–425°C under GHSV of 5000 h^?1. The number of Lewis acid sites and the chemisorbed oxygen concentration of the catalysts would increase with the Pr incorporation, which was favorable for the excellent catalytic performance. In addition, the Pr incorporation inhibited growth of the Al₂O₃ crystal particles and led to the lattice expansion of CeO₂, which increased catalytic activity. The results implied that the higher chemisorbed oxygen concentrations and the more Lewis acid sites were conductive to obtain the excellent SCR activity.     

Synthesis of ϵ‐Caprolactam from Cyclohexanone Oxime Using Zeolites Hβ, HZSM‐5, and Alumina Pillared Montmorillonite

The Beckmann rearrangement of cyclohexanone oxime (CHO) to ?‐caprolactam (?‐C) was studied in a plug flow reactor at 300–400°C under atmospheric pressure by using Hβ, ZSM‐5, and alumina pillared montmorillonite. With Hβ(X) Y zeolites, raising the SiO₂/Al₂O₃ molar ratio (X) results in the enhancement of catalyst acid strength with concomitant decrease of the total acid amount. In creasing the calcination temperature (Y) causes remarkable diminution of catalyst surface area, acid strength, and acid amount. A similar trend was found for AlPMY catalysts. In there action of CHO, the initial catalytic activity correlates well with the total acid amount of various catalysts except for Hβ(10) Y (Y > 600°C). The reaction proceeds on both Brönsted and Lewis acid sites and the catalyst deactivation most likely occurs at the strong Brönsted acid sites. The effect of solvents in the feed on the catalytic results was also investigated; it was found that polar solvents such as ethanol or n‐butanol give high ?‐C yield and longer catalyst life time. In the reaction of CHO/C₂H₅OH over Hβ(10)800 at 400°C and W/F 74.6 gh/mol, the CHO conversion and ?‐C yield remain 100% and 92%, respectively, for at least 20 h time‐on‐stream. The reaction paths and the mechanism for ?‐C formation are proposed.     

Efficient transfer hydrogenation of alkyl levulinates to γ-valerolactone catalyzed by simple Zr–TiO2 metal oxide systems

Zr–TiO₂ synthesized heterogeneous catalysts could efficiently convert ethyl levulinates (ELs) to γ-valerolactone (GVL) using isopropanol (2-PrOH) as H-donor. Obtained catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Scanning electron microscope (SEM), High revolution transmission electron microscope (HR-TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES), NH₃/CO₂ temperature programmed desorption (NH₃/CO₂-TPD), pyridine-infrared spectroscopy, H₂ temperature-programmed reduction (H₂-TPR), and N₂ adsorption and desorption measurements. In total, 10 wt% Zr–TiO₂ with average nanoparticle sizes (ca. 4–6 nm) exhibited optimum catalytic activity after optimization of reaction temperature, reaction time, catalyst loading, as well as solvent effect. GVL yield reached 74% with 79% EL conversion at 190 °C for 5 h over 10 wt% Zr–TiO₂ in 2-PrOH. The high catalytic activity could be attributed to an appropriate proportion of acidic/basic sites, high Brønted/Lewis acid ratio, and large surface areas. Both acidic and basic sites lead to a synergistic effect on the concurrent activation of H-donor and substrate. The major side product ethyl 4-hydroxypentanoate (EHP) and other byproducts were found. GVL yield achieved from methyl levulinate (ML) and levulinic acid (LA) were 65% and 20%, respectively. Catalyst deactivation was observed due to coke deposits on the catalyst’s surface. The spent catalyst proved to be reusable to recover almost completely its initial activity after calcination (300 °C, 2 h). A plausible reaction mechanism is presented on the basis of characterization results.     

Effects of Solid Acid Supports on the Bifunctional Catalysis of Levulinic Acid to γ‐Valerolactone: Catalytic Activity and Stability

Heterogeneous transformation of levulinic acid (LA) to γ‐valerolactone (GVL) is regarded as a critical process of the lignocellulose‐based biorefinery system. Substantial progress on the catalytic conversion of LA to GVL has been continuously achieved recently. However, the traditional research paradigm typically emphasizes the metal‐catalyzed hydrogenation step, but lacks profound insights into the potential impacts of catalyst supports. Herein, an overview of the bifunctional catalytic system classified by representative solid acid supports for LA conversion to GVL is presented, and effects of critical factors on metal‐ and acid‐ catalyzed processes are discussed. Particularly, impacts of key issues on catalytic stability are thoroughly summarized and analyzed. Challenges and suggestions are also proposed from the perspective of increases in both catalytic activity and stability. This review potentially contributes to the rational design of high‐efficiency catalysts used in the biomass valorization for renewable energy production.     

Efficient conversion of fructose to 5‐hydroxymethylfurfural by functionalized γ‐Al2O3 beads

Millimeter size γ‐Al₂O₃ beads were prepared by alginate assisted sol–gel method and grafting organic groups with propyl sulfonic acid and alkyl groups as functionalized γ‐Al₂O₃ bead catalysts for fructose dehydration to 5‐hydroxymethylfurfural (5‐HMF). Experiment results showed that the porous structure of γ‐Al₂O₃ beads was favorable to the loading and dispersion of active components, and had an obvious effect on the properties of the catalyst. The lower calcination temperature of γ‐Al₂O₃ beads increased the specific surface area, the hydrophobicity and the activity of catalysts. Competition between the reaction of alkyl groups and ‐SH groups with surface hydroxyl during the preparation process of the catalyst influenced greatly the acid site densities, hydrophobic properties and activity of the catalyst. With an increase in the alkyl group chain, the hydrophobicity of catalysts increased obviously and the activity of the catalyst was enhanced. The most hydrophobic catalyst C₁₆‐SO₃H‐γ‐Al₂O₃–650°C exhibited the highest yield of 5‐HMF (84%) under the following reaction conditions: reaction medium of dimethylsulfoxide/H₂O (V/V, 4:1), catalyst amount of 30 mg, temperature of 110°C and reaction time of 4 hr.     

Characterization and Activity of MnO/γ‐Al2O3 for Hydrogenation of Methyl Benzoate to Benzaldehyde

The activities of a MnO/γ‐Al₂O₃ catalyst for the selective reduction of methyl benzoate to benzaldehyde have been studied in a continuous flow reactor. Characterization of the catalyst has been conducted by XRD, XPS, NH₃‐TPD and TPD‐IR. XRD and XPS results revealed that the steady state catalyst is mainly MnO₂/γ‐AlO₃ before reduction and MnO/γ‐Al₂O₃ after reduction. Monolayer dispersion capacity obtained by XPS method is about w (Mn)11.3% TPD‐IR results revealed that there are only L acidic centers on the catalytic surface. NH₃‐TPD determinations have verified that the catalyst with a certain number of moderate strength acidic sites is advantageous to hydrogenation of methyl benzoate to benzaldehyde.     

High-Performance Supported Ru Catalysts for the Aqueous-Phase Hydrogenation of Levulinic Acid to γ-Valerolactone

γ-Valerolactone (GVL) can be obtained by efficient hydrogenation of levulinic acid using ruthenium-based catalysts in an aqueous medium. This paper reports an in-depth study on the activity and selectivity of Ru catalysts supported on zirconia-alumina, focusing on the effect of Ru concentration (0.5, 1.5 and 3 wt. % of Ru) and the selection of operational reaction variables. The results showed that the activity strongly depends on the number and oxidation state of the supported ruthenium particles. The most active catalyst, Ru3/ZA, presented the highest number of nanometric particles of zerovalent Ru and the highest number of acid sites. This catalyst gave ca. 100 % selectivity towards GVL, at high conversion of levulinic acid (over 99 %) under the best operating conditions evaluated (120 °C, 3 MPa H₂ pressure, 1 h of reaction, and 0.1 g of catalyst). In addition, this catalyst kept high levels of conversion and selectivity after successive reuse cycles.     

Isobutane Dehydrogenation Assisted by CO2 over Silicalite‐1‐Supported ZnO Catalysts: Influence of Support Crystallite Size

The ZnO catalysts supported on Silicalite‐1 zeolites with different crystallite sizes (0.08, 0.35, 1 and 1.7 μm, respectively) and 5% Zn were synthesized via an incipient wetness method. The catalysts were characterized by XRD, N₂ adsorption, SEM, TEM‐EDX, DRIFT spectra and NH₃‐TPD, and their catalytic performance in isobutane dehydrogenation assisted by CO₂ was investigated. The catalytic activity is strongly dependent on the crystallite size of Silicalite‐1 support. The ZnO/S‐1‐0.35 catalyst with ca. 0.35 μm crystallite size displays the highest activity, affording an initial isobutane conversion of 51.0% and 74.5% isobutene selectivity. This can be attributed to a higher amount of acid sites present on this catalyst as well as the largest amount of nest silanols possessed by the S‐1‐0.35 support.     

Effect of Brønsted/Lewis Acid Ratio on Conversion of Sugars to 5‐Hydroxymethylfurfural over Mesoporous Nb and Nb‐W Oxides

A series of mesoporous Nb and Nb‐W oxides were employed as highly active solid acid catalysts for the conversion of glucose to 5‐hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF ). The results of solid state ³¹P MAS NMR spectroscopy with adsorbed trimethylphosphine as probe molecule show that the addition of W in niobium oxide increases the number of Brønsted acid sites and decreases the number of Lewis acid sites. The catalytic performance for Nb‐W oxides varied with the ratio of Brønsted to Lewis acid sites and high glucose conversion was observed over Nb₅W₅ and Nb₇W₃ oxides with high ratios of Brønsted to Lewis acid sites. All Nb‐W oxides show a relatively high selectivity of HMF , whereas no HMF forms over sulfuric acid due to its pure Brønsted acidity. The results indicate fast isomerization of glucose to fructose over Lewis acid sites followed by dehydration of fructose to HMF over Brønsted acid sites. Moreover, comparing to the reaction occurred in aqueous media, the 2‐butanol/H₂O system enhances the HMF selectivity and stabilizes the activity of the catalysts which gives the highest HMF selectivity of 52% over Nb₇W₃ oxide. The 2‐butanol/H₂O catalytic system can also be employed in conversion of sucrose, achieving HMF selectivity of 46% over Nb₅W₅ oxide.     

Catalytic transfer hydrogenation of furfural into furfuryl alcohol over Ni–Fe‐layered double hydroxide catalysts

Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) and their derivatives have been reported to be widely used as heterogeneous catalysts in various reactions. Herein, Ni‐Fe LDHs with the controlled Ni/Fe molar ratios (2:1, 3:1, 4:1) were synthesized via an easy hydrothermal method, which were used to catalyze the selective reduction of biomass‐derived furfural into furfuryl alcohol using 2‐propanol as a H‐donor under autogenous pressure and characterized using FT‐IR, XRD, TGA, BET, SEM, NH₃‐TPD, and CO₂‐TPD. It was found that the LDH with a Ni/Fe molar ratio of 3:1 demonstrated the best catalytic activity among the LDHs with different Ni/Fe molar ratios, which showed 97.0% conversion of furfural and 90.2% yield of furfuryl alcohol at 140°C for 5 hr. This was attributable to the synergistic effect of acidic sites and basic sites of the catalyst.     

MCM‐41 Immobilized Acidic Functional Ionic Liquid and Chromium(III) Complexes Catalyzed Conversion of Hexose into 5‐Hydroxymethylfurfural

The development of novel methods to obtain biofuels and chemicals from biomass has been an immediate issue in both academic and industrial communities. In this work, a series of novel catalysts were prepared and characterized by FT‐IR , TGA , XRD , SEM , TEM , ICP‐AES , NH₃‐TPD and BET , which were applied for the conversion of hexose to 5‐hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF ). The Cr(Salten)‐MCM ‐41‐[(CH₂ )₃SO₃HVIm ]HSO₄ catalyst was the most active catalyst, and a glucose conversion of 99.8% with 50.2% HMF yield was obtained at 140 °C for 4 h in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO ). The effects of reaction temperature, reaction time, solvents and catalyst dosages were investigated in detail. MCM ‐41 immobilized acidic functional ionic liquid and chromium(III ) Schiff base complexes as heterogeneous catalysts can be easily recovered by simple filter treatment, exhibiting excellent stability and activity towards hexose conversion. Thus the heterogeneous catalysts were environment‐friendly for transforming biomass carbohydrates into fine chemicals.     

Solvent Effects in Acid‐Catalyzed Biomass Conversion Reactions

Reaction kinetics were studied to quantify the effects of polar aprotic organic solvents on the acid‐catalyzed conversion of xylose into furfural. A solvent of particular importance is γ‐valerolactone (GVL), which leads to significant increases in reaction rates compared to water in addition to increased product selectivity. GVL has similar effects on the kinetics for the dehydration of 1,2‐propanediol to propanal and for the hydrolysis of cellobiose to glucose. Based on results obtained for homogeneous Brønsted acid catalysts that span a range of pK_a values, we suggest that an aprotic organic solvent affects the reaction kinetics by changing the stabilization of the acidic proton relative to the protonated transition state. This same behavior is displayed by strong solid Brønsted acid catalysts, such as H‐mordenite and H‐beta.     

Highly Stable Carbon-Shell Encapsulated Ni−Cu Bimetallic Catalysts for Efficient Conversion of Levulinic Acid to γ-Valerolactone

Non-noble Ni−Cu alloys serve as an alternative catalytic material for noble metal-based catalysts that could be applied in the efficient conversion of levulinic acid (LA) into the high value γ-valerolactone (GVL). However, maintaining the catalytic stability for Ni−Cu nanoparticles in the LA hydrogenation process remains a substantial challenge, Herein, this problem is solved by constructing carbon-protected catalytic sites within carbon layer-coated Ni−Cu nanoalloy composite via pyrolysis of NiCu_x(OH)/glucose precursor. The optimized NiCu_0.68@C catalyst exhibits excellent stability and selectivity to GVL (>99 %) in the hydrogenation of LA reaction. Various characterization indicates that the enhancement in stability originates from the protective effect of the carbon layer, which prevents the metal leaching, oxidation and aggregation of Ni−Cu nanoparticles during the reaction process. This work greatly advances non-noble metal-catalyzed conversion of LA to GVL and helps the rational design of bimetallic catalysts.     

Novel Flower‐Like Ag‐SiO2‐MgO‐Al2O3 Material: Preparation,Characterization and Catalytic Application in Methanol Dehydrogenation

Catalytic direct dehydrogenation of methanol to formaldehyde was carried out over Ag‐SiO₂‐MgO‐Al₂O₃ catalysts prepared by sol‐gel method. The optimal preparation mass fractions were determined as 8.3% MgO, 16.5% Al₂O₃ and 20% silver loading. Using this optimum catalyst, excellent activity and selectivity were obtained. The conversion of methanol and the selectivity to formaldehyde both reached 100%, which were much higher than other previously reported silver supported catalysts. Based on combined characterizations, such as X‐ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), diffuse reflectance ultraviolet‐visible spectroscopy (UV‐Vis, DRS), nitrogen adsorption at low temperature, temperature programmed desorption of ammonia (NH₃‐TPD), desorption of CO₂ (CO₂‐TPD), etc., the correlation of the catalytic performance to the structural properties of the Ag‐SiO₂‐ MgO‐Al₂O₃ catalyst was discussed in detail. This perfect catalytic performance in the direct dehydrogenation of methanol to formaldehyde without any side‐products is attributed to its unique flower‐like structure with a surface area less than 1 m²/g, and the strong interactions between neutralized support and the nano‐sized Ag particles as active centers.     

Synthesis of 3‐Methylindole from Glycerol Cyclization with Aniline over CuCr/Al2O3 Catalysts Modified by Alkali Earth Oxides

In the present work, CuCr catalysts supported on γ‐Al₂O₃ are prepared and modified with alkali earth elements by impregnation, characterized by N₂ adsorption–desorption, XRD, H₂‐TPR (temperature‐programmed reduction by H₂), CO₂‐TPD and NH₃‐TPD (temperature‐programmed desorption of NH₃ or CO₂), and applied in the synthesis of 3‐methylindole (3‐MI) with a N‐heterocycle from glycerol and aniline in the fixed‐bed reactor. The results show that the introduction of alkali earth elements into the CuCr/Al₂O₃ catalyst can improve the yield of target 3‐MI in the order of Mg < Ca < Sr < Ba. CuCr‐Ba/Al₂O₃ gives rise to a high 3‐MI yield of 39.09% and 65.17% in N₂ as a carrier gas and 20%H₂–N₂ mixture gas, respectively. According to catalysts characterization and catalytic tests, the reaction pathway of glycerol cyclization with aniline is proposed, the formation of 3‐MI and 3H‐indol‐3‐yl methanol is hypothesized to be through the aniline cyclization with 2,3‐hydroxypropanal from glycerol dehydrogenation over Cu⁰ centers and basic sites. The acidic sites mainly play a role on activating aniline, which interacts with glycerol to form 3‐MI or quinoline through cyclization and dehydration.     

Nano‐MoO3‐modified MCM‐22 for methane dehydroaromatization

The work reported was aimed at a simple method to improve the catalytic activity of Mo/HMCM‐22 in methane aromatization. The catalysts were characterized using X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, N₂ adsorption–desorption, NH₃ temperature‐programmed desorption, infrared spectra of pyridine adsorption, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. Physicochemical measurements indicated that Mo species with smaller size in HMCM‐22 would sublimate more easily and form Mo species at the atomic/molecular level and then interact well with the internal Brønsted acid sites to form Mo–O–Al active species. Catalytic results confirmed that nano‐MoO₃‐modified HMCM‐22 showed higher methane conversion and aromatics yield (13.1 versus 8.9%) than commercial MoO₃‐modified HMCM‐22 (11.0 versus 7.5%). In addition, nano‐MoO₃‐modified HMCM‐22 showed better durability compared with commercial MoO₃‐modified MCM‐22. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Heterogeneous catalysts based on B/P/O for the monoetherification of 1,2-dihydroxybenzene in the gas phase

Boron–phosphorus mixed oxides were tested as heterogeneous catalysts for the gas-phase etherification of catechol (1,2-dihydroxybenzene) with methanol, aimed at the production of guaiacol (1-methoxyphenol). This reaction represents an alternative to the etherification processes which makes use of homogeneous catalysts in the liquid phase. The activity of the catalysts was found to depend considerably on the B/P atomic ratio. A catalyst having B/P = 1.0, made of BPO₄, exhibited the best results in terms of (i) conversion of catechol, (ii) selectivity to guaiacol, and (iii) steadiness of performance with time-on-stream. Characterisation of the catalyst using TPD of NH₃ evidenced that this catalyst has the optimal surface acidity, which makes the undesired reactions of tar formation and ring-alkylation slower. Supporting the B/P/O catalysts on α-Al₂O₃ resulted in lower activity, but the catalytic performance was less dependent on the B/P ratio. Doping with potassium resulted in a lowering of the number of acid sites; however, small amounts of dopant led to an increase in activity, possibly due to a co-operation effect between basic and acid sites.     

Non‐Oxidative Methane Conversion Using Lead‐ and Iron‐Modified Albite Catalysts in Fixed‐Bed Reactor

Raw and modified albite catalysts, including Pb/Albite and Fe/Albite catalysts, have been investigated for methane conversion to C₂ hydrocarbons under non‐oxidative conditions. Introduction of Pb to albite improved the activity and selectivity to non‐coke products. Based on characterization, it was found that Pb entered into the alkali and alkaline‐earth metal sites of albite, while partial Fe doped in the tetrahedron sites and the other loaded on the surface of albite. At the reaction temperature of 1073 K, methane gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) of 2 L·gcat^–1·h^–1, catalyst dosage of 0.25 g (300 mesh), the methane conversion catalyzed by raw albite in the fixed‐bed micro reactor exhibited a methane conversion of 3.32%. Notably, introducing a Pb content of 3.4 wt% into albite greatly enhanced the conversion of methane up to 8.19%, and the selectivity of C₂ hydrocarbons reached 99% without any coke under the same reaction conditions. While Fe‐doping could weakly heighten the methane conversion to 3.97%, and coke was formed. Thus, a comparison of Pb/Albite and Fe/Albite catalysts demonstrates that the catalytic activity of albite is mainly decided by alkali and alkaline‐earth metal sites, and lead‐modification can effectively improve the catalytic activity of albite.     

碱土金属氧化物改性ZrO2催化1,4-丁二醇选择性脱水合成3-丁烯-1-醇

采用浸渍法制备了碱土金属氧化物CaO,SrO或BaO改性的ZrO₂酸碱双功能催化剂,借助X射线衍射、低温N₂物理吸附、NH₃和CO₂程序升温脱附等手段表征了催化剂的结构、织构以及表面酸碱性质,并考察了其催化1,4-丁二醇选择性脱水合成3-丁烯-1-醇的反应性能.结果表明,碱土金属氧化物的引入显著调变了催化剂表面的酸性和碱性中心,进而对1,4-丁二醇转化率和3-丁烯-1-醇选择性产生重要影响.其中,CaO改性的ZrO₂样品中形成了大量的Ca-O-Zr结构,在ZrO₂表面形成大量碱性位点的同时,保持了较高的酸密度;而SrO和BaO改性的样品中生成了相应的锆酸盐,ZrO₂表面的酸密度呈现不同程度的下降.因此,CaO/ZrO₂催化剂表现出最优的催化活性和3-丁烯-1-醇选择性,350℃时,3-丁烯-1-醇收率最高,达60.5%.催化剂表面的酸碱协同作用是选择性合成3-丁烯-1-醇的关键因素.     

乙酰丙酸选择性加氢合成γ-戊内酯中高效和可循环使用的Ni3Fe NPs@C 双金属催化剂

生物质经催化转化合成燃料及化学品是当前研究的热点.目前,生物质的催化转化主要聚焦于纤维素、半纤维素和木质素的解聚及其下游产物合成.其中,乙酰丙酸(LA)作为纤维素解聚的主要产物之一,是一种极具竞争力的平台化合物和重要的生物质转化中间体.LA通过催化转化可以合成各类高附加值的化学品,例如,通过催化加氢LA可选择性合成γ-戊内酯(GVL).所合成的GVL用途广泛,可作为绿色溶剂、食品、燃料添加剂、(塑料、高分子、烃类或者其它高附加值化学品)前驱体等.目前,LA-to-GVL的研究主要着眼于非均相催化体系,包括负载型贵金属和非贵金属催化剂体.其中,贵金属催化剂主要有Ru,Au,Pd,Rh,Ir和Pt,虽然催化效率高,条件温和,但是成本高,难以实现工业化.此外对于广泛使用的Ru/C催化剂,存在金属-载体间相互作用不强.活性组分易流失、导致催化剂稳定性差等问题;而非贵金属则普遍存在催化活性不佳及反应条件苛刻等缺点.因此,开发高效、稳定、反应条件温和且具有工业化应用前景的非贵金属催化剂具有显著的研究意义,这也是当前的研究趋势.在特定温度下,金属离子与碳基底存在较强的相互作用.鉴于此,本文通过一步碳热还原法合成了活性炭负载的Ni3Fe双金属催化剂(Ni3Fe NPs@C).该催化剂在LA-to-GVL转化体系中展现了直接加氢(DH)和转移加氢(TH)双功能催化特性.首先,考察了其在DH体系中的反应特性:在130oC和2 MPa氢压反应条件下经2 h反应,LA转化率达到93.8％,GVL选择性为95.5％,GVL产率是相应的单金属Ni/C和Fe/C催化剂的6倍和40倍.此外,在TH催化反应体系中,在180oC,0.5 h和无外加氢源的反应条件下,以异丙醇为反应溶剂和供氢体,LA几乎完全转化为GVL,其反应效率同样相较于单金属Ni/C和Fe/C催化剂大幅度提高.所合成的Ni3Fe NPs@C双金属催化剂DH和TH催化性能优于绝大多数报道的LA加氢贵金属和非贵金属催化剂.而且,该催化剂具有良好的循环利用性能,经过四次循环,其结构和化学状态没有发生明显的改变,稳定性明显优于商业化的Ru/C催化剂.此外,通过系统分析其催化性能以及材料结构,明确了该催化剂在LA的DH和TH反应体系中的活性位点,并提出了可能的反应路径.该研究为其它类型的DH和TH反应体系以及生物质高效转化过程提供了新的催化剂设计思路.并且这种催化剂及其制备方法简单、绿色,易于工业化推广和应用.
