Oxidative coupling of methane over BaCl2-TiO2-SnO2 catalyst

The performance of BaCl2-TiO2-SnO2 composite catalysts in oxidative coupling of methane reaction has been investigated. A series of BaCl2-TiO2, BaCl2-SnO2, TiO2-SnO2, and BaCl2-TiO2-SnO2 catalysts were prepared, and characterized by BET, XRD, XPS, CO2-TPD and H2-TPR, respectively. The synergistic effect among BaCl2, SnO2 and TiO2 compositions enhances the catalytic performance. The best C2 selectivity and ethylene yield are obtained on the catalyst with the equal molar amount of the three compositions (BaCl2 : TiO2 : SnO2 molar ratio of 1 : 1 : 1). The optimal reaction conditions are as follows: 800°C, 44 mL·min-1 for methane, 22 mL·min-1 for oxygen and a space velocity of 5000 mL·h-1 g-1, and the C2H4 yield over the catalyst is 20.1% with the CH4 conversion of 43.8% and C2 selectivity of 53.3%.     

银离子修饰的介孔磷钨酸/二氧化硅催化剂氧化脱硫性能研究

采用银修饰介孔磷钨酸/二氧化硅（mesoporous HPW/SiO₂）催化剂,并研究了其在模拟柴油和真实柴油氧化脱硫反应中的催化性能。通过银修饰介孔HPW/SiO₂,结合银离子对有机硫化物的选择吸附性和HPW对有机硫化物的催化氧化活性,以达到选择氧化脱硫的目的。模拟柴油分别采用石油醚、苯、1-辛烯和二苯并噻吩配制,当银离子与HPW的摩尔比为2时,催化剂具有最高的选择催化氧化活性。采用N₂ 吸附-脱附、XRD、UV-vis和EDS表征了银修饰的介孔HPW/SiO₂催化剂,结果表明,银物种分散均匀且以Ag⁺形式存在。真实柴油的脱硫研究表明,相比介孔HPW/SiO₂催化剂,修饰的催化剂介孔Ag₂-HPW/SiO₂脱硫率提高了4.6%,初始硫含量为1800×10^-6的直馏柴油能被脱除至228×10^-6,脱硫率为87.3%。介孔Ag₂-HPW/SiO₂催化剂具有良好的再生性能,经再生处理后,Ag的损失量极少,其三次脱硫率达到84.8%。     

甲烷氧化偶联Na-W-Mn/SiO2催化剂的喇曼光谱

By calcinating commercial silica gel at 1500℃or adding Na2C2O4 and then calcinating at 850℃,α-cristobalite was formed. On the basis of the vibration spectroscopy of silica support, Na-W-Mn/SiO2 catalyst was characterized by Raman spectroscopy. The results show that the structure of support and the interaction among metal components have significant effect on the dispersion and the structure of metal sites, and the tetrahedrally coordinated [WO4] formed on α-cristobalite surface is the most possible site of methane activation with high C2 selectivity.     

Effects of operating parameters on oxidative coupling of methane over Na-W-Mn/SiO2 catalyst at elevated pressures

The effects of operating parameters on oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) over Na-W-Mn/SiO2 catalyst have been studied at elevated pressures of 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 MPa under low gaseous hourly space velocity (GHSV) and low temperature conditions. Experimental results show that when the operating pressure is increased, C2+ yield slightly decreases, while the maximum ratio of ethylene to ethane remains unchanged. Moreover, it has been found empirically that increase of pressure does not affect the catalyst behavior permanently, the catalyst recovers its original low pressure performance without hysteresis behavior by reducing the pressure. Under the investigated conditions, when oxygen is completely consumed, the increase of GHSV leads to improvement in C2 selectivity, while C3+ and COx selectivities decrease slightly. The C2+ selectivity increases by increase of nitrogen diluent in the feed, but the C3+ hydrocarbons selectivities decrease with increase of nitrogen since it is possible that further dilution at high pressure may reduce the probability of collision between CH3 and C2+ hydrocarbons. During the stability test at high pressure, the catalyst performance remains unchanged throughout the 20 h running. The fresh and used catalysts were characterized using XRD, SEM and N2 adsorption-desorption methods. It was found that the phase transformation of the support from α-cristobalite to tridymite and quartz does not have obvious effect on catalyst performance at high pressure.     

热扩散法制备MoO3/SiO2催化草酸二甲酯和苯酚酯交换反应

采用热扩散法（TS）和等体积浸渍法制备了MoO₃/SiO₂催化剂用于草酸二甲酯和苯酚酯交换反应.结果表明,热扩散法制备的10%MoO₃/SiO₂-TS催化剂较等体积浸渍法制备的10%MoO₃/SiO₂-C催化剂具有更好的催化性能.运用X射线衍射、Raman光谱、X射线光电子能谱分析、吡啶吸附红外光谱、NH₃程序升温脱附等手段对催化剂进行了表征,发现虽然两种方法制备的催化剂都只有弱Lewis酸中心,钼均以氧化钼单体形式存在,未形成解离和聚合,但是10%MoO₃/SiO₂-TS催化剂较10%MoO₃/SiO₂-C催化剂表面钼含量更高且MoO₃分散得更好.在苯酚用量为0.2mol,10%MoO₃/SiO₂-TS催化剂用量为1.2g,反应温度为180℃,草酸二甲酯与苯酚的摩尔比为2,反应时间为4h的优化条件下,苯酚转化率可达70.9%,甲基苯基草酸酯和草酸二苯酯的收率分别达63.1%和7.7%.     

Ring opening of methylcyclopentane over Al2O3 and SiO2 supported Rh catalysts

Hydrogenolytic ring opening of methylcyclopentane (MCP) was investigated on Rh/Al₂O₃ and Rh/SiO₂ catalysts, prepared by the incipient wetness method. Strong dependence can be seen in the yield and distribution of ring opening products as a function of temperature and hydrogen pressure. They depended also on the support used. The ring opening reaction required high hydrogen coverage, and was not random (hindered in the vicinity of the methyl group), thus, mainly 2-methylpentane (2MP) and 3-methylpentane (3MP) were formed. The fragments consisted of C₁–C₅ alkanes, with methane andi-pentane as main fragments. This means the possibility of breaking two C−C bonds during one sojourn of the reactant on the catalyst, both taking place far from the substituent. The loose positive correlation between the ratios ofi-pentane/n-pentane and 3MP/n-hexane seems to support this conclusion.

吸附法制备CuO-Ag/SiO2纳米复合物

利用吸附法原位制备CuO/SiO2、CuO-Ag/SiO2纳米复合物,研究了不同吸附质体系中预负载的纳米Ag粒子对CuO的影响。结果表明:Ag粒子对CuO的影响因吸附质的不同而不同。以Cu(Ac)2为吸附质,纳米Ag几乎没有影响;以NaOH为吸附质,纳米Ag使得CuO的晶粒粒径增大。这一结果与铜物种对Ag晶粒粒径的影响规律完全不同。通过比较不同吸附质的吸附行为,Cu(OH)2与硅胶表面的相互作用被认为是导致这一现象的原因。

Hydrogenation of Benzonitrile on Sn-Pt/SiO2 Catalysts Prepared by Introducing SnEt4 to Pt/SiO2: Role of Tin

Liquid phase hydrogenation of benzonitrile was studied over Sn-Pt/SiO₂ catalysts prepared by introducing tetraethyl tin onto the 3 wt.% Pt/SiO₂ catalyst. Tin content of the catalysts ranged from 0.05 to 0.63 wt.%, whereas Sn/Pt surface atomic ratios determined by chemisorption measurements were between 0.1 to 3.5. Dibenzylamine selectivity influenced to a small extent by the level of conversion and the Sn/Pt ratio wasca. 75 %. The addition of tin to Pt in the range of (Sn/Pt)_surface = 0.50–1.25 led to an increase in the turnover frequency (TOF) by a factor of 2. TOF showed a maximum at a surface atomic ratio of Sn/Pt = 1. The enhancement of catalyst activity upon the addition of tin is explained by the formation of Sn⁺-Pt ensemble sites on the surface of bimetallic nanoclusters. It is suggested that highly dispersed positively charged tin species, by polarizing the triple bond, enhance the reactivity of the -CN group. Calcination at 300°C followed by re-reduction of the catalysts resulted in a monotonic decrease of specific activity with increasing Sn/Pt ratio.

HRTEM分析表明活性组分MnO_x与CeO₂都均匀分布在载体SiO₂表面;XRD分析表明Mn₃O₄特征峰随着CeO₂含量的增加逐渐减小至完全消失,CeO₂的加入降低了MnO_x的结晶程度,增加了MnO_x的分散性;Raman光谱表明催化剂表面的Mn离子能够进入CeO₂晶格,激发出空穴氧,随着CeO₂负载量的增加,催化剂氧空穴浓度先升高后降低.以NH₃为还原剂,考评催化剂的NO_x低温选择性催化还原（SCR）性能,催化剂催化活性随CeO₂负载量增加先升高后降低,与催化剂氧空穴浓度变化规律一致,说明催化剂活性受氧空穴浓度影响,氧空穴浓度升高,催化剂催化活性升高.

Mn-Na2WO4/SiO2催化剂表面活性中心结构的DFT研究

Mn Na2WO4/SiO2 is one of the best catalysts for oxidative coupling of methane.To investigate the nature of active centers and the reaction mechanism,the structure of possible metal sites formed by tungsten and manganese over the silica surface were studied using molecular simulation method and ab initio DFT calculations.Silica support exists in the catalyst as 岐瞔ristobalite and its (111) face exposes preferentially to the surface.The calculated results show that tungsten interacts with the silica surface by three or one bridge oxygen atoms to form tetrahedral [WO4],and manganese interacts with single bridge oxygen to form dispersed [MnO4] or exists as oxide clusters.The nature of the molecular orbitals and the electronic structure suggest that the tetrahedral [WO4] site with single bridge oxygen is the most probable active center responsible for methane activation.     

SiO2负载氮掺杂TiO2可见光响应光催化剂的制备及性能

以四氯化钛为钛源,尿素为氮源,采用液相水解-沉淀法制得SiO2负载N掺杂TiO2可见光响应TiO2-xNy/SiO2光催化剂(TSN)。以苯酚为模型物,考察了TSN在可见光区、紫外光区及太阳光下的光催化活性,以及催化剂的使用寿命、分离性能。采用XPS、FTIR、UV-Vis DRS、XRD、TEM和低温氮物理吸附等对催化剂的结构进行表征。结果表明,N以阴离子形式进入TiO2体相并置换晶格中的O,适量N掺杂的TSN在紫外光区、可见光区及太阳光下均表现出较高的活性。SiO2与TiO2界面间有Ti-O-Si键形成,结合牢固。N掺杂在TiO2表面生成Ti-O-N键,形成新的能级结构,使催化剂的吸收红移至450~500 nm,诱发TiO2可见光催化活性。SiO2负载可减小TiO2颗粒平均尺寸,增加催化剂比表面积;同时SiO2负载还可改善催化剂的分离性能,提高催化剂使用寿命。

The release of TiO2 and SiO2 nanoparticles from nanocomposites

There is a growing interest in the development of nanocomposites consisting of organic polymers and TiO₂ or amorphous SiO₂ nanoparticles. These nanoparticles may be released from nanocomposites. There is evidence that amorphous SiO₂ and TiO₂ nanoparticles can be hazardous. Thus, in the design of nanocomposites with such nanoparticles, hazard reduction extending to the full nanocomposite life cycle would seem a matter to consider. Options for hazard reduction include: changes of nanoparticle surface, structure or composition, better fixation of nanoparticles in nanocomposites, including persistent suppression of oxidative damage to polymers by nanoparticles, and design changes leading to the release of relatively large particles.
