Studies on the cracking ofn-hexane over H-ZSM-48

The influence of various reaction parameters such as temperature, WHSV and H₂ ton-C₆ molar ratio onn-hexane cracking at atmospheric pressure over ZSM-48 has been studied. The influence of SiO₂/Al₂O₃ variations and isomorphous substitution by Ga and Fe has also been investigated. A linear relationship between the specific catalytic activity for the cracking ofn-hexane and the concentration of strong acid sites has been found.     

Comparison ofn-decane hydroconversion with Pt/SAPO-5 and Pt/SAPO-11 catalysts

The product distributions from bifunctional conversion ofn-decane over Pt/SAPO-5 and Pt/SAPO-11 catalysts are compared in detail. Selectivities in decane reaction vary largely with the catalyst employed: Pt/SAPO-11 produces high yields of feed isomers, whereas Pt/SAPO-5 gives high yields of cracked products and only under mild reaction conditions are isodecanes the main products obtained. These selectivities seem to be determined by the structure of the catalyst.     

Reactions ofn-hexane andn-nonane on Pt catalysts and hydrogenating off hydrocarbonaceous adspecies after reaction

n-Hexane andn-nonane were reacted on Pt black, 6% Pt/SiO₂, 0.8% Pt/KL zeolite and a 0.6% industrial Pt/Al₂O₃ catalyst. Selectivities were compared at ∼10% conversion. After reaction, the catalyst was exposed to H₂ and the hydrocarbons leaving the catalysts were analyzed. The amount of hydrocarbons left the catalysts decreased in the sequence Pt black>Pt/SiO₂>Pt/KL>Pt/Al₂O₃. The composition of removed hydrocarbons gave important—although indirect—information on the possible state of “hydrocarbonaceous deposits” during catalysis.     

不同硅铝比Cu-ZSM-5纳米片上N2O催化分解

以双季铵盐表面活性剂为模板剂,水热条件下合成了硅铝比(nSi/nAl)为18、26和95的ZSM-5沸石纳米片,采用离子交换方法制备了铜改性的ZSM-5纳米片样品,并测试了其催化分解N_2O性能。结合X射线衍射(XRD)、N_2吸附/脱附、X射线荧光光谱(XRF)、扫描电镜(SEM)、透射电镜(TEM)、氢气程序升温还原(H_2-TPR)、氧气程序升温脱附(O_2-TPD)和原位红外漫反射光谱(CODRIFT)等表征结果 ,探讨了沸石硅铝比对于催化剂N_2O分解性能的影响及其原因。结果表明,ZSM-5纳米片硅铝比越低,CuZSM-5纳米片催化剂的活性越高。催化活性的提高归因于低硅铝比催化剂上Cu~+活性物种可还原性的增强和吸附氧脱附能力的提高。     

Effect of the nature of zeolite and modifying additives on the activity of zeolite-containing catalysts inn-butane isomerization

Isomerization ofn-butane on various types of zeolites (ZVM, ZVK, mordenite, and Y) modified with transition metals and cationic and anionic additives was investigated. Under the conditions studied, H-forms of zeolites are inactive. Pt-containing systems based on the H-form of ZVM (HZVM) are the most efficient catalysts forn-butane isomerization, and the yield of isobutane reaches 20–26 wt.% at a selectivity of 40–45%. Modification of this catalyst with Ga and Fe compounds or with an aqueous solution of HCl increases the selectivity with respect to isobutane up to 70–90%. Introduction of Zn²⁺ cations or F⁻ and SO₄ ²⁻ anions into the Pt-containing HZVM system decreases the selectivity and yield of isobutane due to the formation of very strong acidic centers on which disproportionation and hydrocracking ofn-butane mainly occur.

Transformation ofn-hexane over microporous molecular sieves: Studies over MeAPO-11 and MeAPSO-11

CoAPO-11, MgAPO-11, ZnAPO-11, COAPSO-11, ZnAPSO-11 and MgAPSO-11 samples were synthesized by hydrothermal methods and characterized. The samples were loaded with 0.5 wt.% Pt and tested for their catalytic activities in the isomerization ofn-hexane. All the samples exhibited catalytic activities and selectivities for isomerization comparable to that of SAPO-11. The selectivities for the different monomethyl and dimethyl isomers are rationalized on the basis of shape selectivity and acidities of different samples.     

Hydroisomerization of n-heptane over bimetal-bearing H3PW12O40 catalysts supported on dealuminated USY zeolite

The bimetal-bearing (CePt or LaPt) 12-tungstophosphoric acid (H₃PW₁₂O₄₀ (PW)) catalysts supported on dealuminated USY zeolite (DUSY) were prepared by impregnation and characterized by XRD, BET, IR, and H₂-chemisorption. Their catalytic activities were tested in the hydroisomerization of n-heptane with a continuous atmospheric fixed-bed reactor. After the steam treatment combined with the acid leaching, as well as the supporting with PW and the bimetals, the DUSY support retains the Y zeolite porosity and the PW well keeps its Keggin structure in catalysts. The doping of Ce into the catalysts enhances the dispersion of Pt on the catalyst surface. The Pt-bearing PW catalysts doped with Ce or La, especially Ce, exhibit much higher catalytic activity and selectivity than the catalysts without dopants at lowered reaction temperatures. At the optimal reaction conditions, i.e., the reaction temperature of 250°C and WHSV of 1.4 h⁻¹, the catalyst with a Pt loading of 0.4%, PW loading of 10% and a molar ratio of Ce to Pt of 15:1 shows a conversion of n-heptane of 70.3% with a high selectivity for isomerization products of 94.1%.

Hydrocarbon specificity in the selective catalytic reduction of NOx over Cu-ZSM-5 and Co-ZSM-5 catalysts

Transformation of surface nitrates under CH₄ (CH₄+O₂) was found to ensure steady-state activity of Co-ZSM-5 in the selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides by methane (CH₄-SCR). For Cu-ZSM-5, such species are mainly converted into NO. Relaxation of the coordination sphere due to oxygen and NO adsorption, stability of C,N-containing intermediates and activation routes of hydrocarbons (methane, propane) were analyzed as factors determining catalytic properties of Cu and Co cations.     

钾改性对Au/ZSM-5催化剂上正丁烷裂解性能的影响

采用负压沉积沉淀法制备了负载型Au/HZSM-5催化剂,采用X射线衍射（XRD）、透射电镜（TEM）、Ｘ射线光电子能谱（XPS）、NH3-TPD、紫外可见漫反射（UV-vis）等技术对催化剂进行了表征分析,并考察了催化剂对正丁烷裂解性能的影响。结果表明,Au金属成功负载到HZSM-5催化剂上,并且金颗粒的尺寸受负载量的影响,其中1.0%Au/HZSM-5催化剂中的金颗粒粒径最小,约为5～10nm。钾离子作为一种碱性离子可以调节载体酸性,随着K离子的引入xK-Au/HZSM-5催化剂的酸性逐渐降低,使Au0的电子结合能更高。相对于HZSM-5,2.0Au/HZSM-5催化剂对于正丁烷的转化率从13.1%提升到了37.5%,对丙烯的选择性从17.2%提升到了52.5%。随着K离子的引入,催化剂对于丁烯以及异丁烷的选择性有所提高,当K离子负荷为0.08%时,对丁烯的选择性从3.8%提高到36.9%,负荷为0.1%时,对异丁烷的选择性由2.8%提升到51.8%。但原料转化率低于2.0Au/HZSM-5,这可能与K的加入降低催化剂酸改性有关。此外通过研究Au/HZSM-5用K+修饰得知Au+离子是Au/HZSM-5催化剂转化正丁烷主要活性中心。     

Synthesis, characterization and catalytic properties of a novel organophosphate molecular sieve from n -propylamine

A novel organophosphate molecular sieve was synthesized from n-propylamine for the first time and its characterization show that it is structurally analogue to ZSM-5. Benzaldehyde acetalization shows that this material has superior catalytic activity as compared to the ZSM-5 molecular sieve.     

不同方法制备的Cu/HZSM-5催化剂上NO的催化分解反应

采用离子交换法、固相分散法和微波固相法等不同方法制备了Cu/HZSM-5催化剂,以BET、XRD和XPS等手段对催化剂样品进行了表征。结果表明,不同方法制备的Cu/HZSM-5催化剂上Cu物种的落位分布状态不同,离子交换法制备的催化剂Cu物种更多地落位于分子筛孔道内,微波固相法和固相分散法制备的催化剂Cu物种较多地落位分布在分子筛外表面。固相分散法制备的样品未能使铜物种完全分散于分子筛表面,在13.1°、16.8°、35.5°和38.0°等处仍存在CuO的晶相衍射峰。催化分解NO反应的活性考察结果表明,用微波固相法制备的催化剂催化分解NO的活性及稳定性明显超过另两种方法所制备的催化剂,在无氧条件下NO最初转化率高达89.2%,经反应25h后,转化率仍维持在70%以上;在富氧气氛下催化分解NO活性降低速率低于由离子交换法制备的催化剂。结合表征结果可以得出,落位于分子筛外表面以离子交换态形式存在的Cu物种对催化分解NO反应更为有利,而且催化稳定性更好。     

Conversion ofn-hexane over Pt?Sn/γ-Al2O3 catalyst

Conversion ofn-hexane has been applied as a test reaction to study differences between the series of Pt−Sn/γ-Al₂O₃ catalysts obtainedvia different methods of preparation. Preliminary results of catalytic experiments have been compared with some changes occurring on the catalysts surfaces as the results of the preparation technique applied. It has been found that catalysts with the second metal (Sn) introduced to the support by the coprecipitation technique were much more stable in comparison to the catalysts where the tin component has been added by the impregnation method, however, we have not observed large differences in catalytic activity.     

The effect of adamantane on the hydroconversion ofn-heptane over pure and platinum-containing H-Y and H-mordenite zeolites

The effect of adamantane (Ad) has been studied on the activity and selectivity of the H- and Pt/H-forms of zeolite Y and mordenite (MOR) in the hydroisomerization and cracking ofn-heptane at 443 K.Ad was found to induce pronounced increase in the isomerization activity and selectivity of the H-Y zeolite, while the activity of the Pt/H-Y and MOR was only moderately influenced. Findings suggest thatAd acts as a hydride transfer cocatalyst, but, its activity is controlled by the limited accessibility of the active sites within the zeolitic channels.     

Aromatization of methane by using propane as co-reactant over cobalt and zinc-impregnated HZSM-5 catalysts

The activities of the cobalt and zinc-impregnated HZSM-5 catalysts to the non-oxidative conversion of propane (C3) and methane (C1) into aromatic hydrocarbons were evaluated using a fixed-bed microreactor. C1 conversion reached 36.7% and the selectivity of aromatic products reached above 88.7% at atmospheric pressure, weight (hourly) space velocity (WHSV) 1.6 g h⁻¹/(g cat)⁻¹ and 873 K. The influence of the acidity and the ratio of cobalt in the catalyst on the conversion of methane and propane was evaluated. C1 incorporation was conclusively confirmed by the mass spectral analyses of aromatic products produced in a run with ¹³CH₄ which shows a significant ¹³C enrichment in the C₆H₆⁺, C₇H₈⁺ and C₈H₁₀⁺ fragments. The methane activation could result from its hydrogen-transfer reaction with alkenes. These catalysts were thoroughly characterized using XRD, N₂ adsorption measurements, TPD of NH₃, and FT-IR. The results showed that the activation of methane in low temperature was due to existence of propane. The acidic changes and micropore area of the catalyst severely affected aromatization, and resulted in drastic modifications in product distribution. From this work, we found that only a small fraction of tetrahedral framework aluminum, which corresponds to the Bronsted acid sites, is sufficient to accomplish the aromatization of the intermediates in methane and propane aromatic reaction, while the superfluous strong Bronsted acid sites, which can be decreased by adding Co and Zn, are showed to be related with the aromatic carbonaceous deposits on the catalysts. The density of acidic site and the strength of strong acid decreased when the concentration of Co and Zn in the catalyst increased. Therefore, a much higher benzene yield and a longer durability of the catalysts are obtained when compared with the conventional HZSM-5 catalysts.     

Methane aromatization in the absence of oxygen over extruded and molded MoO3/ZSM-5 catalysts: Influences of binder and molding method

The influences of binder and molding method on the catalytic performance of methane aromatization in the absence of O2 over MoO3/ZSM-5 catalysts were investigated. SEM, NH3-TPD, FT-IR of adsorbed pyridine, N2 adsorption-desorption, cyclohexane adsorption and XPS were employed to characterize the physical and chemical properties of the catalysts. It was found that SiO2 was a suitable binder for the catalyst due to its appropriate weak acidity. The laminar catalyst comprising of an inert spherical core and a MoO3/ZSM-5 laminar shell with 0.1-0.2 mm in thickness showed a better catalytic performance than the extruded catalyst. The improved activity of the laminar catalyst could be attributed to the easy carbonization of Mo species and the quick removal of reaction products from the catalyst surface.     

Ni对Pt/SAPO-11催化剂物化及异构性能影响

通过浸渍法制备了Pt/SAPO-11催化剂,分步浸渍法制备了Ni-Pt/SAPO-11双金属催化剂。通过X射线衍射、低温氮物理吸附、氨程序升温脱附和吡啶吸附红外等手段对所得样品进行了表征。结果表明,助剂Ni的引入导致了催化剂的比表面积和孔容降低,同时,催化剂的B酸量、L酸量及总酸量均有所下降。在340℃时对正庚烷的临氢异构化反应中,当Pt含量0.2wt%时,Pt/SAPO-11催化剂的正庚烷转化率为45%,C7异构体收率为43%;而当Pt含量0.2wt%,同时Ni含量为0.2wt%时,Ni-Pt/SAPO-11催化剂的正庚烷转化率提高至72%,C7异构体收率提高至60%。     

V5+物种对钒磷氧化物催化性能的影响

采用有机相法制备钒磷氧化物催化剂，通过空气或氧气气氛中不同时间的原位预处理以系统调变样品中V⁵⁺物种的含量及其状态，并考察对催化正丁烷选择氧化制马来酐的反应性能的影响。理化表征手段的结果表明，空气或氧气预处理改变了V物种的价态及V⁵⁺/V⁴⁺的相对含量，但对催化剂的比表面积和表面P/V比没有显著影响。表面V⁵⁺/V⁴⁺的合适比例及相应的结构状态可能在V⁵⁺-V⁴⁺物种之间产生较好的协同作用，从而获得较为理想的催化反应性能。     

Characterization of hydrotreated Cu-ZSM-5 catalyst for the selective catalytic reduction of NO by n-decane

The steam treatment of Cu-ZSM-5 prepared by solid ion exchange involves an important decrease of the NO conversion. Characterization of the solids by NO-TPD, H₂-TPR, ²⁷Al MAS NMR shows that the catalyst deactivation is mainly due to change in copper species rather than the collapse of the zeolite framework.This revised version was published online in December 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

富氧条件下Co/ZSM-5催化剂对C_3H_8选择还原NO_x的性能

采用多种物理化学手段研究了在模拟的轻型柴油车尾气中不同Co担载量及Cu掺杂的Co/ZSM-5催化剂的Co组分分散状态、可还原性、NO吸附脱附性质对C3H8选择性催化还原NOx性能的影响。结果表明,浸渍法制备的Co/ZSM-5催化剂上既有外表面上的Co3+和Co2+物种,也有孔内的Co2+离子。富氧条件下Co/ZSM-5催化剂上C3H8选择性催化还原NOx的活性主要与ZSM-5载体孔外表面分散的CoOx物种中的钴离子可还原能力和NO吸附脱附性能密切相关。Co/ZSM-5催化剂上适宜的Co担载量约为4.0wt%,低担载量时随Co担载量增加,表面CoOx物种中钴离子可还原能力增强,C3H8选择性催化还原NOx的低温转化活性增加;高担载量时,随Co担载量增加,单位Co离子的NO吸附量的减少以及催化剂表面活性中心数的减少,导致了Co/ZSM-5催化剂NOx的转化率和催化剂比速率(k)的下降。孔外表面Co3O4晶体的存在使催化剂表面产生较强的NO吸附,并在高温时有利于C3H8的氧化燃烧,使C3H8选择性催化还原NOx的活性降低。
