Catalytic dehydrogenation of isobutane in the presence of carbon dioxide

Summary The dehydrogenation of isobutane to isobutene in the presence and absence of carbon dioxide is discussed on the basis of catalytic studies. The V-Mg-O catalysts have been prepared using different preparation procedures. The structure and texture of the V-Mg-O catalysts were characterized by several techniques including X-ray diffraction (XRD), BET surface area measurements and infrared spectroscopy (IR). The results show that carbon dioxide enhances isobutane conversion in the reaction carried out over the V-Mg-O catalyst prepared by citrate method.     

Dehydrogenation of isobutane in the presence of carbon dioxide over supported vanadium oxide catalysts

Summary The dehydrogenation of isobutane to isobutene in the presence of carbon dioxide was carried out over supported vanadium oxide catalysts. The influence of the support on the catalytic performance was investigated. The isobutane conversion and isobutene selectivity in the presence of carbon dioxide were compared with the results obtained during the dehydrogenation reaction in the presence of helium (inert gas). The catalysts were characterized by temperature-programmed techniques (TPR, TPD-NH₃, TPD-CO₂).     

Dehydrogenation of propane in the presence of carbon dioxide over oxide-based catalysts

In the present study, we show the advantages of CO₂ use for the dehydrogenation of propane to propene on the basis of thermodynamic considerations and some experimental results. Several metal oxides Ga₂O₃, Cr₂O₃, Fe₂O₃ unsupported and supported on g- Al₂O₃ and SiO₂ were tested. Ga₂O₃ catalyst was found to be an effective agent for dehydrogenation of propane to propene. The yield of propene at 873 K was 30.1 %. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Coupling dehydrogenation of isobutane in the presence of carbon dioxide over chromium oxide supported on active carbon

The dehydrogenation of isobutane （IB） to produce isobutene coupled with reverse water gas shift in the presence of carbon dioxide was investigated over the catalyst Cr2O3 supported on active carbon （Cr2O3/AC）. The results illustrated that isobutane conversion and isobutene yield can be enhanced through the reaction coupling in the presence of carbon dioxide. Moreover, carbon dioxide can partially eliminate carbonaceous deposition on the catalyst and keep the active phase （Cr2O3）, which are then helpful to alleviate the catalyst deactivation.     

碳催化剂用于异丁烷直接脱氢制异丁烯

异丁烯用途广泛,被认为是除乙烯和丙烯外最重要的基础化工原料.异丁烯的来源主要是石油裂化过程中产生的碳四馏分,但随着对其需求量的逐年增加,分离法已逐渐无法满足,因此异丁烷直接脱氢工艺逐渐受到工业界和学术界的重视.铬系和铂系催化剂是两类传统工业催化体系,但铬对环境污染严重,铂作为贵金属成本较高,而且现有工艺大多存在催化剂稳定性较差需要反复再生的问题.近年来碳材料用于烷烃氧化脱氢反应的研究较多,并表现出较高的活性和稳定性,甚至有研究组提出金属催化剂在反应中快速生成的活性积碳(active coke)可能是真正的催化活性中心.但氧化脱氢反应不同于直接脱氢,需在反应中加入氧气,这在实际生产中会带来一系列问题：考虑到烷烃的爆炸极限,实际应用时反应气必须稀释,这不利于产物的收集;而且氧气会导致反应物过度氧化产生CO和CO2等副产物,也限制了氧化脱氢工艺在工业上的应用和发展.
　　我们研究组将椰壳碳、煤质碳和碳纳米管等碳材料作为催化剂用于催化异丁烷直接脱氢反应,发现碳催化剂表现出较高的催化活性：在625 oC,椰壳碳上异丁烷转化率和异丁烯选择性分别为70%和78%,连续反应3d后仍能维持34%的转化率,且选择性基本不变.与铬基催化剂相比,碳催化剂在稳定性方面表现出更大优势.我们进一步采用N2吸脱附、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)、傅里叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)和场发射扫描电子显微镜(FE-SEM)等手段对反应前后的碳催化剂进行了详细表征. N2吸脱附结果表明,椰壳碳比表面积高达1190.2 m2/g,这可能是其具有较高催化活性的原因;而结合催化剂活性数据,对比反应前后椰壳碳催化剂比表面积和异丁烷转化率可知,两者呈现近乎线性的相关性,进一步证实比表面积大小对碳催化剂催化活性有重要影响. XPS谱图证明椰壳碳在反应前表面除了有少量硅(0.73%)外,不存在金属氧化物等杂质,证实碳材料无需负载氧化物等即可表现出较高的催化活性;反应后沉积的积碳附着在催化剂表面,使硅含量降低至0.47%;催化剂中氧含量也由4.43%降低至3.78%,同时有碳酸盐生成. FTIR谱图进一步证实反应前的椰壳碳表面有丰富的有机官能团,但反应开始后有机官能团很快消失,而催化剂仍保持较高的催化活性,因此有机官能团并非碳催化剂催化活性高的必要因素,这与文献中已报道的结果不同. FE-SEM照片中观察到反应后椰壳碳催化剂表面形成积碳,随着反应时间延长积碳明显增多,这与XPS结果一致.
　　碳材料具有来源广泛、绿色环保等显著优势,可作为一种新的催化体系应用于异丁烷直接脱氢反应,无需负载其他物质或添加氧化性气体即可表现出良好的催化活性和稳定性,其比表面积对催化活性有重要影响,反应中产生的积碳导致催化剂比表面积下降进而降低其催化活性,而有机官能团的存在对催化活性影响不大.     

Oxidation of isobutane over hydrothermally synthesized Mo-V-Te-Nb-O mixed oxide catalysts

MoV_0.3Te_0.17 and MoV_0.3Te_0.17Nb_0.12 catalysts were prepared by a hydrothermal synthesis route and tested for the oxidation of isobutane and isobutene. Characterization results showed that the structure and property of Mo-V-Te-based catalysts are relatively different depending on the presence of the Nb element. Catalytic tests showed that the selectivity of methacrolein can comparatively be improved by the addition of Nb into the MoV_0.3Te_0.17 catalyst for the selective oxidation of isobutane.

钒氧化物催化CO2氧化异丁烷脱氢的研究

采用溶胶-凝胶法制备了一系列钒氧化物催化剂,并用于CO₂氧化异丁烷脱氢反应. 采用X射线衍射、低温N₂吸附-脱附、O₂程序升温氧化、程序升温表面反应和原位傅里叶变换红外光谱等方法研究了催化剂的性质. 反应结果表明,尽管所有钒氧化物催化剂的丁烯选择性都大于85%,但随着催化剂组成和制备方法的改变,催化活性和稳定性差异显著. 其中,12 wt% V₂O₅/Ce_0.6Zr_0.4O₂（7 wt%）-Al₂O₃的催化活性最高,而6 wt% V₂O₅-Ce_0.6Zr_0.4O₂（7 wt%）-Al₂O₃的稳定性最佳. 关联分析催化反应结果与催化剂表征表明,钒氧化物的催化活性取决于VO_x物种的结晶度和分散度,而催化剂表面所积重质焦炭的特性是决定催化剂稳定性的关键. 非稳态反应和原位光谱结果确认,CO₂氧化异丁烷脱氢遵循Mars-van Krevelen氧化还原机理.     

Catalytic performance of silica-supported chromium oxide catalysts in ethane dehydrogenation with carbon dioxide

The oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane into ethylene by CO₂ over a series of silica-supported chromium oxide catalysts was investigated. The results showed that the catalysts were effective for the reaction and CO₂ in the feed promoted the catalytic activity. The 5%Cr/SiO₂ catalyst exhibited the excellent performance with 30.7% ethane conversion and 96.5% ethylene selectivity at 700^oC. ESR and UV-DRS were used to probe the active sites and the species with high valent states (Cr⁵⁺ and/or Cr⁶⁺) were found to be important for the reaction.

异丁烷在Cr2（MOO4）3,Fe2（MoO4）3催化剂上的无氧脱氢与氧化脱氢

研究了Ｃｒ２（ＭｏＯ４）３、Ｆｅ２（ｍＯ４）３、对异丁烷无氧脱氢与氧化氢的催化性能，在无氧脱氧反应中，催化剂的表面酸性既有利于异丁烷活性生成异丁烯，又易引起裂和异构化等副反应，在氧化脱氢反应中，异丁烯选择性较低，催化剂的表面酸中心对反应中间体的吸附将导致深度氧化。     

铁系催化剂上乙苯与CO2氧化脱氢反应

采用浸渍法和溶胶-凝胶法制备了三种含Mg,Fe和Al量相同的Fe2O3-MgO/γ-Al2O3,Fe2O3/MgAl2O4和MgFe0.1Al1.9O4催化剂,在580°C考察了它们催化乙苯与CO2氧化脱氢反应性能,并采用X射线衍射,表面元素分析,H2-程序升温还原和CO2-程序升温脱附等技术对催化剂体相及表面性质进行了表征.结果表明,催化剂制备方法影响Fe物种的存在形态,进而影响催化剂的稳定性和活性.采用浸渍法制备的Fe2O3/MgAl2O4催化剂含有高度分散的Fe2O3活性物种,该物种具有较好的初活性,但是稳定性较差;而采用溶胶-凝胶法制备的MgFe0.1Al1.9O4催化剂中,Fe物种主要以同晶取代的形式存在于尖晶石骨架中,因而具有较高的乙苯与CO2氧化脱氢催化活性和稳定性.     

Selective oxidation of isobutane over Mo-V-Te mixed oxide catalysts with different tellurium contents

A series of MoV_0.3Te_x (x = 0−0.3) mixed oxides were prepared and investigated for the selective oxidation of isobutane. Among them, MoV_0.3Te_0.23 showed the best methacrolein and methacrylic acid selectivity (as high as 17% and 16%, respectively), and the yield to methacrolein and methacrylic acid reached 3.6% and 3.5%, respectively, at 21.3% isobutane conversion at 440°C.     

Modification of Cr/SiO2 for the dehydrogenation of propane to propylene in carbon dioxide

Summary Dehydrogenation of propane to propylene in carbon dioxide was investigated over promoted Cr/SiO2. The results showed that the catalysts were effective for the reaction and CO2 in the feed promoted the catalytic activity. XRD, TPR and microcalorimetric adsorption techniques were used to study the structure and surface acidity of the catalysts. It was found that the surface acidity decreased with the increase of K in the Cr/SiO2 and led to the increase of selectivity toward propylene. A propane conversion of 31% with 91% selectivity to propylene over the 5%Cr-0.4%K/SiO2 catalyst was observed at 923 K with CO2 /C3H8 molar ratio of 3.6.     

Copolymerization of carbon dioxide and propylene oxide under inorganic oxide supported rare earth ternary catalyst

Recently, rare earth ternary coordination catalyst represented as Y(CCl₃OO)₃‐Glycerin‐ZnEt₂ has been used for producing poly(propylene carbonate) (PPC, an alternating copolymer of carbon dioxide and propylene oxide) in industry scale, but its catalytic activity needs further improvement. One reason for the relatively low catalytic activity lied in that only 11.7% of active center was efficient due to possible embedding of active center in the heterogeneous catalyst. In this report, supporting strategy was developed, where Y(CCl₃OO)₃‐Glycerin‐ZnEt₂ was supported on various inorganic oxides. Two supporting methods were carried out. One way was to mix Y(CCl₃OO)₃‐Glycerin with inorganic oxide first and then ZnEt₂ was dropped to form the supported catalyst, and the other was to make Y(CCl₃OO)₃‐Glycerin‐ZnEt₂ at first and then mixing with inorganic oxides. The former showed decreasing catalytic activity compared with corresponding unsupported rare earth ternary catalyst, while an improvement of 16–36% in catalytic activity was realized in the latter. PPC with an average number molecular weight (M_n) of over 100 kg/mol and carbonate unit (CU) content of higher than 96% was prepared by both supported catalysts. The catalytic activity of the supported catalyst depended significantly on the supports, which increased in the following order: α‐Al₂O₃ < MgO < ZnO ≈ SiO₂ <γ‐Al₂O₃. γ‐Al₂O₃ was the best support for rare earth ternary catalyst, which showed a remarkable 36% increase in catalytic activity, corresponding to the utilization of 17% of active center. Although MgO supported catalyst gave only an 8% increase in catalytic activity, the M_n and CU content of PPC were raised to about 143 kg/mol and 99%, whereas the PPC from common rare earth ternary catalyst was about 108 kg/mol and 97%, respectively. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Double metal cyanide complex based on Zn3[Co(CN)6]2 as highly active catalyst for copolymerization of carbon dioxide and cyclohexene oxide

Double metal cyanide complexes based on Zn₃[Co(CN)₆]₂ were prepared in the presence of different complexing agents and used in the copolymerization of carbon dioxide and cyclohexene oxide. The FTIR and ¹H NMR spectra of the products verified the formation of polycarbonate. Compared with zinc carboxylate, zinc phenoxide, and so forth, these catalysts demonstrated great enhancement of catalytic activity. Their highest turnover number and turnover frequency reached 3300 and 1650 h^?1, respectively, at 90 °C. The molar fraction of CO₂ (F_CO2) for the copolymers was about 0.44–0.47, and it varied slightly with different catalysts under a temperature of 90 °C and a pressure of 3.8 MPa. The study showed that the F_CO2 can reach 0.40 even at 0.6 MPa, and it changed slightly above 3.8 MPa. The reaction rate had little influence on the F_CO2 under our experimental conditions. A relatively low temperature was favorable for the incorporation of CO₂. The monitoring of copolymerization revealed the molecular weight was proportional to the reaction conversion. The molecular weight distribution was in the range of 4.5–6, and the reaction rate was proportional to the amount of catalyst that was used. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Hydrogenation of carbon dioxide over iron oxide catalyst

Hydrogenation of carbon dioxide was carried out over reduced Fe₃O₄ catalyst. Effect of reduction temperature of the catalyst, reaction temperature, space velocity, and component of feed gas were examined on the catalyst. From various experiments, the proper conditions for the hydrogenation of carbon dioxide are proposed. In addition, oxidation of the catalyst took place simultaneously during the hydrogenation of CO₂.

Effect of calcination conditions on the catalytic behavior of Te-Mo mixed oxide catalysts in oxidation of isobutane and isobutene

A series of Te-Mo-O catalysts were prepared by decomposing (NH₄)₆TeMo₆O₂₄·nH₂O telluromolybdate under different conditions and tested for the selective oxidation of isobutane and isobutene. Characterization results showed that their structure and properties depend on the calcination conditions. Catalytic tests showed that molybdenum may be the key element for the activation of isobutane, whereas the selective oxidation of isobutene to methacrolein might proceed mainly on the surface of a TeMo-containing crystalline phase.
