The effect of cobalt doping on vanadyl pyrophosphate catalyst

Co-promoted vanadyl pyrophosphate catalyst (Co/V = 2.23 %) was prepared by classical organic method via VOHPO₄ ^.0.5H₂O precursor and calcined for 100 h in a mixture of n-butane in air. The synthesised catalyst was characterised by N₂ physisorption, ICP, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and temperature-programmed desorption of oxygen. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Promotional Effect of Bismuth as Dopant in Bi-Doped Vanadyl Pyrophosphate Catalysts for Selective Oxidation of n-Butane to Maleic Anhydride

Bismuth-promoted (1% and 3%) vanadyl pyrophosphate catalysts were prepared by refluxing Bi(NO3)3·5H2O and VOPO4·2H2O in isobutanol. The incorporation of Bi into the catalysts lattice increased the surface area and lowered the overall V oxidation state. Profiles of temperature programmed reduction (TPR) in H2 show a significant shift of the maxima of major reduction peaks to lower temperatures for the Bi-promoted catalysts. A new peak was also observed at the low temperature region for the catalyst with 3% of Bi dopant. The addition of Bi also increased the total amount of oxygen removed from the catalysts. The reduction pattern and reactivity information provide fundamental insight into the catalytic properties of the catalysts. Bi-promoted catalysts were found to be highly active (71% and 81% conversion for 1% and 3% Bi promoted catalysts, respectively, at 703 K), as compared to the unpromoted material (47% conversion). The higher activity of the Bi-promoted catalysts is due to that these catalysts possess highly active and labile lattice oxygen. The better catalytic performance can also be attributed to the larger surface area.     

Effect of Fe dopant on the physico-chemical and catalytic properties of vanadyl pyrophosphate catalysts

Summary 1% of Fe-doped and undoped vanadyl pyrophosphate catalysts were prepared via dihydrate method. The catalysts have been characterised by XRD, ICP, BET and SEM. The undoped catalyst was found to be more active and selective (77.6% selectivity at about 60 % conversion at 703 K).     

Selective Oxidation of n-Butane over VPO Catalyst Modified by Different Additives

A series of vanadyl pyrophosphate catalyst （VPO） modified by different additives have been prepared with the aim to study the performance for selective conversion of n-butane to maleic anhydride（MA）. The addition of various promoters improved the catalytic performance remarkably on both activity and selectivity. The correlation of activity and selectivity of the catalysts with their structure has been discussed. The increase in BET surface areas and surface redox sites leads to an enhanced activity. However, good selectivity can only be obtained on those surfaces with suitable surface acid sites.     

Surface Dynamics of A Vanadyl Pyrophosphate Catalyst for n‐Butane Oxidation to Maleic Anhydride: An In Situ Raman and Reactivity Study of the Effect of the P/V Atomic Ratio

This work focused on investigating the effect of the P/V atomic ratio in vanadyl pyrophosphate, catalyst for n‐butane oxidation to maleic anhydride, on the nature of the catalytically active phase. Structural transformations occurring on the catalyst surface were investigated by means of in situ Raman spectroscopy in a non‐reactive atmosphere, as well as by means of steady‐state and non‐steady‐state reactivity tests, in response to changes in the reaction temperature. It was found that the nature of the catalyst surface is affected by the P/V atomic ratio even in the case of small changes in this parameter. With the catalyst having P/V equal to the stoichiometric value, a surface layer made of α_I‐VOPO₄ developed in the temperature interval 340–400 °C in the presence of air; this catalyst gave a very low selectivity to maleic anhydride in the intermediate T range (340–400 °C). However, at 400–440 °C δ‐VOPO₄ overlayers formed; at these conditions, the catalyst was moderately active but selective to maleic anhydride. With the catalyst containing a slight excess of P, the ratio offering the optimal catalytic performance, δ‐VOPO₄ was the prevailing species over the entire temperature range investigated (340–440 °C). Analogies and differences between the two samples were also confirmed by reactivity tests carried out after in situ removal and reintegration of P. These facts explain why the industrial catalyst for n‐butane oxidation holds a slight excess of P; they also explain discrepancies registered in the literature about the nature of the active layer in vanadyl pyrophosphate.

Sb对Pd基催化剂用于常压直接合成H2O2的促进效应

H2O2作为一种高效绿色氧化剂, 广泛应用于造纸、纺织、水处理等工业领域. 目前蒽醌法是工业上生产 H2O2的主要方法, 相比之下, 利用 H2和 O2直接合成 H2O2, 能耗低, 污染小, 适合与下游工艺技术进行耦合. 而缺乏高性能催化剂是制约直接法合成 H2O2工业化的主要原因. 本文通过浸渍法制备了一系列负载型 Pd-Sb/TiO2双金属催化剂, 并用于常压下H2O2直接催化合成反应. 利用透射电子显微镜 (TEM), X 射线光电子能谱 (XPS), H2/O2程序升温脱附 (H2/O2-TPD), X 射线衍射 (XRD), 原位 CO 吸附的傅里叶变换漫反射红外光谱 (CO-DRIFTS) 等手段对催化剂的电子和几何结构进行解析, 深入研究了助剂 Sb 对该体系的促进作用.结果显示, 与单金属 Pd 催化剂相比, 适量金属 Sb 的加入有效提高了催化性能, 抑制了副反应的发生. 当 Pd/Sb 摩尔比为 50/1(Pd50Sb) 时, H2O2的选择性高达 73%; 但是当 Pd/Sb 为 2 时, 催化剂对生成 H2O2几乎没有活性. TEM 和 XRD 证明, Sb 的加入显著促进了 Pd 颗粒在载体 TiO2上的分散. XPS 和 H2-TPD 实验, 发现, Sb 改变了催化剂表面 Pd2+/Pd0的比例, 抑制了金属 Pd 的氧化; 同时, Sb 主要以氧化态存在, 在催化剂表面形成 Sb2O3氧化层, 覆盖表面的 Pd 活性位, 从而抑制了反应中 H2在催化剂表面的活化以及 H2O2加氢副反应的发生. O2-TPD 结果表明, 随着 Sb 的加入, O2的脱附峰明显减弱, 表明 Pd-Sb/TiO2不利于 O2的解离吸附. 此外, 原位 CO-DRIFTS 实验结果表明, Sb 均匀分布在 Pd-Sb 催化剂表面, 致使有利于生成 H2O 的连续 Pd 活性位明显减少, 而有利于合成 H2O2的单个 Pd 原子活性位明显增加.总的来说, Sb 对 Pd 表面起到了显著的修饰作用, 提高了催化剂表面 O2的非解离活化, 从而促进了 H2O2的高选择性合成. 但是过量 Sb 的加入会抑制催化剂对 H2的活化作用, 致使催化剂活性下降, 因此优选 Pd/Sb 的比例对于提高催化剂性能具有重要作用.

还原方式及还原温度对甲烷部分氧化镍催化剂结构和反应性能的影响

采用H2 TPR、TEM及活性评价等手段,考察了还原方式（等温和程序升温还原）及还原温度对不同温度（550℃和950℃）焙烧制备的镍基催化剂结构和甲烷部分氧化反应性能的影响。结果表明,与程序升温还原方式相比,等温还原的催化剂中镍物种的还原度较低、Ni晶粒度较小。还原方式对550℃焙烧制备的催化剂（POM-1）的甲烷部分氧化反应性能影响不明显,但等温还原的催化剂反应过程中床层温度较低。随着等温还原温度的提高,POM-1催化剂的镍还原度有所降低,而950℃焙烧制备的催化剂（POM-5）还原度略有增加,且具有较小的镍晶粒。随着等温还原温度的提高,POM-1催化剂反应性能无明显差异,但床层热点温度提高;POM-5催化剂反应性能随还原温度的提高而提高,且床层温度呈现降低趋势。通过分析发现,催化剂床层温度与催化剂镍晶粒大小密切相关,较小的镍晶粒利于床层热点温度的降低,这与较大镍晶粒利于甲烷完全氧化反应有关。     

Secondary reactions of ethylene and propylene in the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis on cobalt-aluminum and cobalt-chromium catalysts

The only secondary reaction of olefins in the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis on Co/SiO₂·Al(III) and Co/SiO₂·Cr(III) with 2.7·10⁻⁶ and 4.0·10⁻⁶ g-ion/m² cation concentration in the support matrix, respectively, is dimerization of ethylene to give a four-carbon intermediate, which participates in the growth of C-C bond chains according to the classical FT synthesis mechanism. When the chromium concentration is increased by a factor of 1.7, secondary ethylene reactions occurring on the acid sites of the catalyst are also observed. When the aluminum concentration is increased by a factor of 3.4, we observe the oligomerization of ethylene and propylene. The secondary reactions of ethylene mainly result in linear hydrocarbons, while oligomerization involving propylene gives a significant amount of branched hydrocarbons. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i éksperimental’naya Khimiya, Vol. 44, No. 2, pp. 115–120, March–April, 2008.     

Effect of Bi promoter on the performances of selective oxidation of isobutane to methacrolein over MoVO/AlPO4 catalysts

The effects of Bi on the catalytic performance of selective oxidation of isobutane to methacrolein over MoVO/AlPO4 catalyst were investigated by XRD, FT-Raman, XPS, UV-vis DRS techniques. The results show that the addition of Bi component into the MoVO/AlPO4 catalyst obviously improves the catalytic performance, and the selectivity to methacrolein can increase from 14.2% to 45.1% with the increase of Bi/V molar ratio from 0 to 1. Combining the characterization results with the reaction evaluation, it is concluded that the catalytic activities of the MoV0.3Bix/AlPO4 catalysts are related to the crystalline phase composition and the dispersion of molybdenum and vanadium oxides species in general, and also to the V5+/V4+ molar ratio on the surface in particular.

Effect of pretreatment methods on the performance of Cu-Zr-Ce-O catalyst for CO selective oxidation

The Cu-Zr-Ce-O catalysts prepared using the coprecipitation method exhibited better catalytic performance for CO selective oxidation. The Cu-Zr-Ce-O catalysts pretreated with different methods were studied by CO-TPR and XPS techniques. The results showed that the Cu-Zr-Ce-O catalyst pretreated with oxygen exhibited the best catalytic performance and had the widest operating temperature window, with CO conversion above 99% from 160 to 200 ℃. The O2 pretreatment caused an enrichment of the oxygen storaged on the Cu active species and promoted the conversion of adsorbed oxygen into surface lattice oxygen. It also improved the amount of Cu＋/Cu^2＋ ionic pair, and then facilitated the formation of CuO active species on the catalyst for selective CO oxidation.
