Synthesis,characterization and catalytic performance of nanosized iron-cobalt catalysts for light olefins production

Nanosized Fe-Co catalysts were prepared by co-precipitation method and studied for the conversion of synthesis gas to light olefins.In particular,the effects of a range of preparation variables such as Co/Fe molar ratios of the precipitation solution,pH value of precipitate,temperature of precipitation,promoters and loading of optimum promoter on the structure and catalytic performance are investigated.The optimal nano catalyst for light olefins (C2-C4) production was obtained over the catalyst with Co/Fe molar ratio of 3/1 which promoted with 2 wt% K.The results show that the best operational conditions were GHSV=2200 h-1 (H2/CO=2/1) at 260℃ under atmospheric pressure.Characterization of catalysts were carried out using X-ray diffraction (XRD),thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA),differential scanning calorimetry (DSC),scanning electron microscopy (SEM),transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and N2 physisorption measurements such as Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) and Barrett-Joyner-Halenda (BJH) methods.     

The sol-gel derived Co-Mn/TiO_2 catalysts for light olefins production

In this research work,two 30%(Co-Mn)/TiO2catalysts were prepared using sol-gel(catalyst A)and coprecipitation(catalyst B)methods.The activity and selectivity to C2~4light olefins in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis(FTS)has been studied in a fixed-bed reactor under different operational conditions.These operational conditions were:temperature220~280℃,and total pressure from0.1~0.6 MPa.The optimum operating conditions were investigated after steady state.As the results shown,the catalyst A was more selective to C2~4olefins(58.7%in 260℃)and catalyst B was more selective to C5+hydrocarbons.Characterization of both catalysts was carried out by using X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscopy(SEM)and N2adsorption-desorption measurements methods.     

Study on iron-manganese catalysts for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis

Iron-manganese catalysts were prepared by co-precipitation method.Characterization of catalysts was carried out by using X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),temperature program reduction(TPR),N2 adsorption-desorption measurements.The results from catalytic performance tests in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis showed that the iron-manganese catalysts are supersensitive to catalyst composition and materials source.It was found that C2~4 light olefins increased while CH4 and CO2 decreased by using iron-manganese catalyst prepared from iron(II) sulfate(A catalyst).The activity and selectivity of A catalyst was studied in different operational conditions.The results showed that the best operational conditions for C2~4 light olefins production were H2/CO=1/1(GHSV=2400h-1) at 260℃ under 0.3MPa total pressure.     

FeO(OH)-TiO2/CoPi复合光阳极的制备及其光电催化氧化水性能

采用溶胶-凝胶法制备了TiO₂ 纳米晶, 并通过浸渍技术在其表面引入了FeO(OH). 采用紫外-可见(UV-Vis)吸收光谱确定了引入FeO(OH)的最佳Fe³⁺浓度. 通过电化学法在FeO(OH)-TiO₂光阳极上沉积了催化水分解制备氧气的钴基催化剂(CoPi), 得到了FeO(OH)-TiO₂/CoPi 复合光阳极. 利用透射电镜(TEM), 高分辨透射电镜(HRTEM), X射线衍射(XRD), 扫描电镜(SEM)对TiO₂纳米晶, FeO(OH)-TiO₂以及FeO(OH)-TiO₂/CoPi复合光阳极进行了表征, 采用电化学和光电化学技术研究了中性条件下FeO(OH)-TiO₂/CoPi 复合光阳极的光电催化分解水性能. 结果表明, TiO₂纳米晶为梭形的锐钛矿, 其表面修饰的FeO(OH)为针铁矿型, 且当前驱体溶液中Fe³⁺与TiO₂的质量比为0.05%时得到的FeO(OH)-TiO₂具有最佳的光吸收效果. 形成FeO(OH)-TiO₂/CoPi复合光阳极后, 在光照条件下CoPi 电催化分解水制备氧气的过电位显著降低. TiO₂表面FeO(OH)的引入增加了光阳极对可见光的吸收能力, 同时光阳极表面沉积的CoPi有效地利用了FeO(OH)-TiO₂产生的光生空穴, 将水氧化形成氧气, 从而在光照条件下显著提高了CoPi催化氧化水的效率.     

Catalytic behaviors of Co-Mn/TiO2 catalysts for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis

The 15%(Co-Mn)/TiO₂,(Co/Mn=1/6) catalyst was prepared using fusion procedure and studied for the conversion of synthesis gas to C_2~4 olefins. The effects of calcination conditions and operation conditions such as the H₂/CO molar feed ratio at different temperatures, gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) and total reaction pressure on the catalytic performance of catalyst were investigated. The stability of the catalyst during 150 h at optimal operation conditions (t=250 ℃ H₂/CO=2/1, GHSV=1 500 h^-1 and p=0.3 MPa) has been investigated. It is found that this catalyst is high stable for production C_2~4 olefins. Characterizations of both precursors and calcined catalysts by powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) specific surface area measurement and thermal analysis methods such as thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) show that the different preparation method influences the catalyst precursor structure and morphology.     

Characterization of Pd/TiO2 embedded in multi-walled carbon nanotube catalyst with a high photocatalytic activity

Pd particles loading on TiO₂-embedded multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), MWCNTs, and TiO₂ particles were prepared via an impregnation method with palladium(II) chlorate solution followed by heat treatment at high temperature. To characterize the catalysts, BET surface area, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy were employed. The prepared catalysts were tested in degradation of methyl orange under visible light. Pd/TiO₂-MWCNTs catalyst demonstrates the highest photocatalytic activity, and the phase transformation from PdO to Pd0 phase takes place at heat treatment of embedded TiO₂. The nanoparticles size of TiO₂ can be decreased by introduction of MWCNTs species. Combining structural characterization with kinetic study results we could conclude that the superior catalytic performance could arise due to the Pd/TiO₂-MWCNTs catalyst’s structure.     

Performance and characterization of iron-nickel catalysts for light olefin production

A series of x (Fe, Ni)/Al2O3 catalysts (x = 2--12 wt%) were prepared using incipient wetness method and studied for the conversion of synthesis gas to light olefins. 6 wt%(Fe, Ni)/Al2O3 catalyst was found to be the optimal catalyst for the production of C2--C4 olefins. The effects of calcination behaviors and operational conditions on the catalytic performance of the optimal catalyst were investigated. The best operational conditions were molar feed ratio H2/CO = 2/1, T = 260 ℃, gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) = 2600 h-1 and the pressure of 3 bar. Characterizations of both precursors and catalysts were carried out using X-ray diffraction (XRD), temperature-programmed reduction (TPR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), N2-adsorption-desorption measurement, thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).     

Synthesis of TiO2 on different substrates by chemical vapor deposition for photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI) in water

TiO₂ loaded on several substrates such as carbon fiber, aluminum plate, silica plate, and glass plate was prepared using the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method for the photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI) in water with the presence of ethanol under Ultraviolet (UV) illumination. As‐prepared samples were characterized by X‐Ray Diffraction (XRD), X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The catalyst with TiO₂ loaded on carbon fiber possessed an extremely large surface area (1,463,91 m²/g), while the other catalysts possessed small surface areas (0.05–0.21 m²/g). The photocatalytic activity of TiO₂ loaded on carbon fiber, which was determined by the conversion of Cr(VI) and the degradation of chemical oxygen demand (COD), was much higher than that of other catalysts. The reusability of TiO₂ loaded on carbon fiber catalyst exhibited almost the same activity as the fresh catalyst. The results indicated that TiO₂ loaded on carbon fiber is feasible for practical application.
