Without limitations of both internal and external diffusion, intrinsic kinetic data were obtained under the following conditions： 490-530 °C, space velocity of 3600？6000 mL·h-1·g-1 and 3/1 molar ratio for CO2/C3H8 under normal pressure. Based on Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism, the kinetic models were established, and they were validated by statistical analysis. The parameters were estimated using Simplex Method combined with Universal Global Optimization Algorithm. The model, taking the surface reaction process as the rate-determining step, is the best one in agreement with the experimental data.展开更多

The effects of transition metals on the catalytic properties of Ni/Ce0.2Zr0.1Al0.7Oδ autothermal reforming of methane were investigated. The Ni-supported catalysts were characterized by XRD, TPR and XPS. Tests in autothermal reforming of methane to hydrogen showed that the addition of transition metals （Cu and Co） significantly increased the activity of catalyst under the conditions of lower reaction temperature, and Ni/Cu0.05Ce0.2Zr0.1Al0.65Oδ was found to have the highest conversion of CH4 among all catalysts in the operation temperatures ranging from 923 K to 1023 K. TPR, XRD and XPS measurements indicated that the cubic phases of CexZr1-xO2 solid solution were formed in the preparation process of catalysts. Strong interaction was found to exist between NiO and CexZr1-xO2 solid solution. The addition of Cu improved the dispersion of NiO, inhibited the formation of NiAl2O4, and thus significantly promoted the activity of the catalyst Ni/Cu0.05Ce0.2Zr0.1Al0.65Oδ展开更多

Using glucose, sorbitol, glycerol and LA as the rawmaterials, the roles of nickel, ZnO and MnOx were investigated. The results show that nickel provided a new pathway of glucose to sorbitol and played an important role in the hydrogenation of C3 intermediates to 1,2-propanediol(1,2-PDO). The high yield of 1, 2-PDO was attributed to effective C–C bond cleavage performance of ZnO support promoted by MnOx. ZnO and MnOx contribute to the conversion of glycerol to lactic acid(LA) and LA to 1, 2-PDO, respectively. A concise pathway for hydrogenation of glucose over Ni-based catalyst was proposed.展开更多

The effects of temperature and LHSV on oligomerization of 1-decene were investigated and the synthetic PAO was characterized with GC technique. Furthermore, the life of immobilized catalyst was tested and the mechanism of catalyst deactivation was discussed. The results showed that with an increasing temperature, the PAO yield increased and the kinematic viscosity of oil decreased. The GC results indicated that the synthesized PAO was a mixture consisting of dimers, trimers, tetramers and pentamers. The results of chloride content measurements and BET tests showed that catalyst deactivation could be mainly attributed to the loss of active components.展开更多

The results indicated that Ni-Mo-W/γ-Al_2O_3 catalyst exhibited the best performance for saturation of 1-MN. The introduction of NH3 remarkably inhibited the hydrogenation of 1-MN in the dynamic control area, but it had no effect in the thermodynamic control area. Besides, the mono-aromatics selectivity on the Ni-Mo-W and Ni-Mo catalysts was enhanced. However, it had little effect on the Ni-W and Co-Mo catalysts.展开更多

The ether soluble fraction of the polybutene 1 was characterized with 13 C NMR, DSC, WAXD, and GPC. The results indicate that the polymers thus obtained are atactic and regioirregular, the weight average molecular weight of these polymers lies in the range of 3 0×10 5 to 7 0×10 5.
