Effects of Cu/Mg mole ratio, reaction temperature, initial hydrogen pressure, reaction time and catalyst amount on the conversion rate of furfural as well as the selectivity toward desired product cyclopentanol were systematically investigated. The conversion of furfural over calcined hydrotalcite catalyst with a Cu/Mg mole ratio of 0.2 was up to 98.5% when the reaction was carried out under 140 ?C and the initial hydrogen pressure of 4 MPa for 10 h, while the selectivity toward cyclopentanol was up to 94.8%. The catalysts were characterized by XRD and SEM. XRD diffraction of all the samples showed characteristic pattern of hydrotalcite with varied peak intensity as a result of different Cu content. The catalytic activity was improved gradually with the increase of Cu component in the hydrotalcite.展开更多

Methanation of CO2 over this catalyst initiated at 225℃ and reached 82.5% CO2 conversion with 99.5% CH4 selectivity at 350℃, which was much better than its impregnated counterpart. Characterizations by means of CO2 microcalorimetry and 27 Al NMR indicated that large amount of strong basic sites existed on Ni-Al2O3-HT, originated from the formation of Ni-O-Al structure. The existence of strong basic sites facilitated the activation of CO2 and consequently promoted the activity. The combination of highly dispersed Ni with strong basic support led to its unique and high efficiency for this reaction. Keywords展开更多

The method strongly affected the structure of their layers(e.g., the growth and stacking of the layers, and the type of intercalated anions) and, accordingly, their catalytic activity. The Mg-Al hydrotalcite prepared by co-precipitation showed the best catalytic performance in the isomerization of glucose into fructose, due to the small crystallite size and sand rose morphology enhancing the exposure of surface active sites to reactants.展开更多

ZnAlLa-HTLcs were synthesized by a method of variable pH with the raw materials ofZn(NO_3)_2, Al(NO_3)_3, La(NO_3)_3, and NaOH. The eS'ccts of some factors (i.e. pH values, the moleratio of Al^(3+) to La^(3+), temperature and the period of hydrothermal treatment) on thepreparation of HTLcs were discussed systematically. XRD, TG-DTA, FT-IR spectroscopy, and ICP wereperformed to characterize ZnAlLa-HTLcs samples, and the thermal stability of HTLcs was alsodiscussed. It was shown that unique ZnAlLa-HTLcs with high crystallinity can be prepared, under theconditions of pH = 5.5-6.5, n(Zn^(2+))/n(Al^(3+) + La^(3+))=2 and the atomic ratio of La^(3+) toAl^(3+) ranging from 0.07 to 2, hydrothermal treatment at 120 ℃ for 5 h. When the calcination ofthe HTLcs is performed at temperatures above 200 ℃, ZnO phase is detected with Al_2O_3 and La_2O_3spreading on its top. The complex metal oxides derived from ZnAlLa-HTLcs at 500 ℃ have highercatalytic activity and selectivity than those from ZnAl-HTLcs for the esterification of acetic acidwith n-butanol under the same reaction conditions.展开更多

Although Ni/Mg（Al）O catalysts prepared from Mg（Ni）-Al HT exhibited high and stable activity in stationary SR, PO and dry reforming of methane and propane, the Ni/Mg（Al）O catalysts were drastically deactivated due to Ni oxidation by steam as purge gas when they were applied in DSS SR of methane. Such deactivation was effectively suppressed by doping trace amounts of noble metal on the catalysts by using a ＂memory effect＂ of HTs. Moreover, the noble metal-doped Ni/Mg（Al）O catalysts exhibited ＂intelligent＂ catalytic behaviors, i.e., self-activation and self-regenerative activity, leading to high and sustainable activity during DSS operation. Pt was the most effective among noble metals tested. The self-activation occurred by the reduction of Ni2＋ in Mg（Ni,Al）O periclase to Ni^0 assisted by hydrogen spillover from Pt （or Pt-Ni alloy）. The self-regenerative activity was accomplished by self-redispersion of active Ni^0 particles due to a reversible reductionoxidation movement of Ni between the outside and the inside of the Mg（Al）O periclase crystal; surface Ni^0 was oxidized to Ni2＋ by steam and incorporated into Mg（Ni2＋,Al）O periclase, whereas the Ni2＋ in the periclase was reduced to Ni^0 by the hydrogen spillover and appeared as the fine Ni^0 particles on the catalyst surface. Further a ＂green＂ preparation of the Pt/Ni/[Mg3.sAl]O catalysts was accomplished starting from commercial Mg3.5-AI HT by calcination, followed by sequential impregnation of Ni and Pt.展开更多

Thermodynamic analysis indicated that the CO in H-rich gas could be controlled to trace levels of below 10 ppm by in situ reduction of the COconcentration to less than 100 ppm via the aforementioned process. The COadsorption capacity of potassiumpromoted hydrotalcite at elevated temperatures under different adsorption（mole fraction, working pressure） and desorption（flow rate, desorption time, steam effects） conditions was systematically investigated using a fixed bed reactor. It was found that the COresidual concentration before the breakthrough of COmainly depended on the total amount of purge gas and the COmole fraction in the inlet syngas.The residual COconcentration and uptake achieved for the inlet gas comprising CO（9.7 mL/min） and He（277.6 mL/min） at a working pressure of 3 MPa after 1 h of Ar purging at 300 mL/min were 12.3 ppm and0.341 mmol/g, respectively. Steam purge could greatly improve the cyclic adsorption working capacity, but had no obvious benefit for the recovery of the residual COconcentration compared to purging with an inert gas. The residual COconcentration obtained with the adsorbent could be reduced to 3.2 ppm after 12 h of temperature swing at 450 °C. A new concept based on an adsorption/desorption process, comprising adsorption, steam rinse, depressurization, steam purge, pressurization, and high-temperature steam purge, was proposed for reducing the steam consumption during CO/COpurification.展开更多

Sulfide catalysts have been proved to have good activity for the HDO and particularly high selectivity to phenolic products. Herein, we presented a novel way to prepare the layered structure sulfide catalysts（MgFeMo-S） derived from MgFe hydrotalcites via the intercalation of Mo in consideration of the memory effect of the calcined hydrotalcite. By varying the Mg/Fe mole ratio, a series of MgFeMo-S catalysts were successfully prepared and characterized by nitrogen adsorption/desorption isotherms, X-ray diffraction（XRD）, transmission electron microscopy（TEM）,and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer（ICP-OES）. The characterization results indicated that the MgFeMo-S catalyst has retained the unique layered structure, which can facilitate uniform dispersion of the MoS2 species on both the surface and interlayer of the catalysts. For the HDO of eugenol, the Mg1Fe2Mo-S catalysts exhibited the best HDO activity among all the catalysts due to its higher active metal contents and larger pore size. The HDO conversion was 99.6% and the yield of phenolics was 63.7%, under 5 MPa initial H2 pressure（measured at RT） at 300 ℃ for 3 h. More importantly,MoS2 species deposited on the interlayer galleries in the MgFeMo-S catalysts resulted in dramatically superior HDO activity to MoS2/Mg1Fe2-S catalyst. Based on the mechanism investigation for eugenol, the HDO reaction route of eugenol under sulfide catalytic system has been proposed for the first time. Further applicability of the catalyst on HDO of more lignin-derived compounds was operated, which showed good HDO activity and selectivity to produce aromatic products.展开更多

These catalysts were characterized by FT-IR spectra and X-ray powder diffraction. Polyoxometalates （POMs） clusters were intercalated into the interlayer of layered double hydroxide （LDH） via anion exchange with organic acid precursor in Mg2Al-LDH, and the integrity of the clusters [W7O24 ]^6- and [Mo7O24 ]^6- was maintained. The intercalated para-molybdic cluster showed high catalytic activity and reusability in the transesterification under mild reaction conditions. When the reaction was carried out at 180 ℃, with a molar ratio of phenol to DMC of 1 ： 1, a reaction time 10 h, and a catalyst amount 1% （wt）, the conversion of phenol was 10.0 %, the selectivities of diphenyl carbonate and methyl phenyl carbonate were 10.7 % and 86.1%, respectively.展开更多

Under optimized reaction conditions, the dense oxygen permeable membrane had an oxygen permeation flux around 13.3 ml/（cm^2·min）. By reforming of the toluene and methane, the amount of H2 in the reaction effluent gas was about 2 times more than that of original H2 in simulated HCOG. The Rn-Ni/Mg（Al）O catalyst used in the membrane reactor possessed good catalytic activity and resistance to coking. After the activity test, a small amount of whisker carbon was observed on the used catalyst, and most of them could be removed in the hydrogen-rich atmosphere, implying that the carbon deposition formed on the catalyst might be a reversible process.展开更多

Herein, Cu was selected to modify NiMgAlO catalysts for improving ethanol conversion and n-butanol selectivity. Over the optimized 2%Cu-NiMgAlO catalyst, ethanol conversion and n-butanol selectivity were enhanced to 30.0% and 64.2%, respectively, in 200 h time on stream at 523 K. According to physicochemical characterizations and theoretical calculations, the key role of multiple active sites in this reaction was extensively investigated. The plate-like structure of hydrotalcite was maintained over 2%Cu-NiMgAlO catalysts, with an average Ni particle size of ca. 5.4 nm. The presence of Cu species created CuNi alloy sites and Lewis acid-base pairs, and increased hydrogen transfer and condensation reactions, resulting in elevated ethanol conversion and n-butanol selectivity. Additionally, CuNi alloy had a strong interaction with CuNiMgAl oxides, forming homogeneous boundary due to their close ionic radius and lattice matching, and afforded the long time stability in the ethanol to n-butanol reaction.展开更多

Physico-chemical characteristics of fresh, reduced and used catalysts were evaluated by XRD, TPR and O2 pulse chemisorptions, TEM and BET-SA techniques. XRD studies showed phases due to hydrotalcite-like precursors in oven dried form produced dispersed NiO species upon calcination in static air above 450 C. Raman spectra of deactivated samples revealed the presence of both ordered and disordered forms of carbon. Ni-La-Al2O3catalyst with a mole ratio of Ni : La : Al = 2 : 0.1 : 0.9 exhibited tremendously high longevity with a hydrogen production rate of 1300 molH2 mol 1 Ni. A direct relationship between Ni metal surface area and hydrogen yields was established.展开更多

The catalysts were prepared by a homogeneous precipitation method using urea hydrolysis and characterized by ICE BET, XRD, TPR, TEM and TG. XRD showed that the hydrotalcite type precursor after calcination formed （Ni, Mg）Al2O4 spinel and Ni-Mg-O solid solution structure. TPR results suggested that the increase in Ni/Mg molar ratio gave rise to the decrease in the reduction temperature of Ni^2＋ to Ni^0 on Ni/Mg（Al）O catalysts. The reaction results indicated that toluene and CH4 could completely be converted to H2 and CO in the catalytic reforming of the simulated HCOG under atmospheric pressure and the amount of H2 in the reaction effluent gas was about 4 times more than that in original HCOG. The catalysts with lower Ni/Mg molar ratio showed better catalytic activity and resistance to coking, which may become promising catalysts in the catalytic reforming of HCOG.展开更多

Although Ni/Mg（Al）O catalysts prepared from Mg（Ni）-Al HT exhibited high and stable activity in stationary SR, PO and dry reforming of methane and propane, the Ni/Mg（Al）O catalysts were drastically deactivated due to Ni oxidation by steam as purge gas when they were applied in DSS SR of methane. Such deactivation was effectively suppressed by doping trace amounts of noble metal on the catalysts by using a ＂memory effect＂ of HTs. Moreover, the noble metal-doped Ni/Mg（Al）O catalysts exhibited ＂intelligent＂ catalytic behaviors, i.e., self-activation and self-regenerative activity, leading to high and sustainable activity during DSS operation. Pt was the most effective among noble metals tested. The self-activation occurred by the reduction of Ni2＋ in Mg（Ni,Al）O periclase to Ni^0 assisted by hydrogen spillover from Pt （or Pt-Ni alloy）. The self-regenerative activity was accomplished by self-redispersion of active Ni^0 particles due to a reversible reductionoxidation movement of Ni between the outside and the inside of the Mg（Al）O periclase crystal; surface Ni^0 was oxidized to Ni2＋ by steam and incorporated into Mg（Ni2＋,Al）O periclase, whereas the Ni2＋ in the periclase was reduced to Ni^0 by the hydrogen spillover and appeared as the fine Ni^0 particles on the catalyst surface.

文摘Elevated-temperature pressure swing adsorption is a promising technique for producing high purity hydrogen and controlling greenhouse gas emissions. Thermodynamic analysis indicated that the CO in H-rich gas could be controlled to trace levels of below 10 ppm by in situ reduction of the COconcentration to less than 100 ppm via the aforementioned process. The COadsorption capacity of potassiumpromoted hydrotalcite at elevated temperatures under different adsorption（mole fraction, working pressure） and desorption（flow rate, desorption time, steam effects） conditions was systematically investigated using a fixed bed reactor. It was found that the COresidual concentration before the breakthrough of COmainly depended on the total amount of purge gas and the COmole fraction in the inlet syngas.The residual COconcentration and uptake achieved for the inlet gas comprising CO（9.7 mL/min） and He（277.6 mL/min） at a working pressure of 3 MPa after 1 h of Ar purging at 300 mL/min were 12.3 ppm and0.341 mmol/g, respectively. Steam purge could greatly improve the cyclic adsorption working capacity, but had no obvious benefit for the recovery of the residual COconcentration compared to purging with an inert gas. The residual COconcentration obtained with the adsorbent could be reduced to 3.2 ppm after 12 h of temperature swing at 450 °C. A new concept based on an adsorption/desorption process, comprising adsorption, steam rinse, depressurization, steam purge, pressurization, and high-temperature steam purge, was proposed for reducing the steam consumption during CO/COpurification.

Sulfide catalysts have been proved to have good activity for the HDO and particularly high selectivity to phenolic products.

Based on the mechanism investigation for eugenol, the HDO reaction route of eugenol under sulfide catalytic system has been proposed for the first time. Further applicability of the catalyst on HDO of more lignin-derived compounds was operated, which showed good HDO activity and selectivity to produce aromatic products.

文摘The salts of para-tungstic and para-molybdic were heterogenized for their effective use as solid catalysts in the transesterification reaction of dimethyl carbonate and phenol by inserting them between the layers of Mg2Al-hydrotalcite. These catalysts were characterized by FT-IR spectra and X-ray powder diffraction. Polyoxometalates （POMs） clusters were intercalated into the interlayer of layered double hydroxide （LDH） via anion exchange with organic acid precursor in Mg2Al-LDH, and the integrity of the clusters [W7O24 ]^6- and [Mo7O24 ]^6- was maintained. The intercalated para-molybdic cluster showed high catalytic activity and reusability in the transesterification under mild reaction conditions. When the reaction was carried out at 180 ℃, with a molar ratio of phenol to DMC of 1 ： 1, a reaction time 10 h, and a catalyst amount 1% （wt）, the conversion of phenol was 10.0 %, the selectivities of diphenyl carbonate and methyl phenyl carbonate were 10.7 % and 86.1%, respectively.

文摘The geometry and electronic topology properties of Mg/Al hydrotalcite cluster models were comparatively investigated by means of density functional theory at GGA/DND levels.The results suggested that cluster model containing seven octahedral cations was the smallest size to be employed to simulate other properties.The fact that the n＋ charge of cluster models containing n aluminum atoms can reflect electronic properties of anionic clay layer sheet.The bond lengths of clusters can be modified by terminating with or without OH-/H2O groups in terms of principle of bond order conservation.
文摘Poly(ethylene terephthalate)(PET)was synthesized by the in-situ polymerization method using layered double hydrotalcite(LDH)as the catalyst,and the thermal and flame retardation properties of PET were investigated as required.As identified by differential scanning calorimetry(DSC)and thermogravimetric(TGA)analysis,the crystallization rate and thermal degradation temperature of the as-prepared PET sample were enhanced compared with commercial PET sample.It was confirmed from the fire-resistant property study that the LDH can be used as an efficient flame-retardant besides functioning as a catalyst in the transesterification/polycondensation process for PET synthesis.

文摘Hydrogen amplification from simulated hot coke oven gas （HCOG） was investigated in a BaCo0.7Fe0.2Nb0.1O3-δ （BCFNO） membrane reactor combined with a Ru-Ni/Mg（Al）O catalyst by the partial oxidation of hydrocarbon compounds under atmospheric pressure. Under optimized reaction conditions, the dense oxygen permeable membrane had an oxygen permeation flux around 13.3 ml/（cm^2·min）. By reforming of the toluene and methane, the amount of H2 in the reaction effluent gas was about 2 times more than that of original H2 in simulated HCOG. The Rn-Ni/Mg（Al）O catalyst used in the membrane reactor possessed good catalytic activity and resistance to coking. After the activity test, a small amount of whisker carbon was observed on the used catalyst, and most of them could be removed in the hydrogen-rich atmosphere, implying that the carbon deposition formed on the catalyst might be a reversible process.

文摘Upgrading ethanol to n-butanol is an attractive way for renewable n-butanol production. Herein, Cu was selected to modify NiMgAlO catalysts for improving ethanol conversion and n-butanol selectivity. Over the optimized 2%Cu-NiMgAlO catalyst, ethanol conversion and n-butanol selectivity were enhanced to 30.0% and 64.2%, respectively, in 200 h time on stream at 523 K. According to physicochemical characterizations and theoretical calculations, the key role of multiple active sites in this reaction was extensively investigated. The plate-like structure of hydrotalcite was maintained over 2%Cu-NiMgAlO catalysts, with an average Ni particle size of ca. 5.4 nm. The presence of Cu species created CuNi alloy sites and Lewis acid-base pairs, and increased hydrogen transfer and condensation reactions, resulting in elevated ethanol conversion and n-butanol selectivity. Additionally, CuNi alloy had a strong interaction with CuNiMgAl oxides, forming homogeneous boundary due to their close ionic radius and lattice matching, and afforded the long time stability in the ethanol to n-butanol reaction.
文摘The sorption-enhanced steam reforming process of methanol（SESRP-Me OH） to produce high-purity H2 was thermodynamically and experimentally studied.Thermodynamic calculations showed that at a CO2 adsorption ratio of 95%,product gas contains 98.36% H2,32.8 ppm CO under temperature of 130°C and steam-to-methanol（S/M） molar ratio of 2.However,without adsorption-enhanced,the product gas contains nearly 74.99% H2 with 24.96% CO2 and 525 ppm CO.To verify the thermodynamic calculation results,experiments were performed in a fixed-bed reactor loaded with commercial Cu O/Zn O/Al2O3 methanol reforming catalyst and 22% K2CO3-promoted hydrotalcite as CO2 adsorbent.Experimental results showed that 99.61% H2 could be obtained by SESRP-Me OH at reaction temperature of 230°C and S/M of 2.Under the same CH3 OH conversion,the reaction temperature decreased by almost 50°C and H2 concentration increased of more than 20%using SESRP-Me OH compared with solely steam reforming of methanol.The characterization of the adsorbent and catalyst showed that the adsorbent showed good stability while the catalyst was seriously sintered under the high regeneration temperature of the adsorbent.
文摘Hydrotalcite precursors of La modified Ni-Al2O3 and Ni-SiO2 catalysts prepared by co-precipitation method and the catalytic activities were examined for the production of COx-free H2 by CH4 decomposition. Physico-chemical characteristics of fresh, reduced and used catalysts were evaluated by XRD, TPR and O2 pulse chemisorptions, TEM and BET-SA techniques. XRD studies showed phases due to hydrotalcite-like precursors in oven dried form produced dispersed NiO species upon calcination in static air above 450 C. Raman spectra of deactivated samples revealed the presence of both ordered and disordered forms of carbon. Ni-La-Al2O3catalyst with a mole ratio of Ni : La : Al = 2 : 0.1 : 0.9 exhibited tremendously high longevity with a hydrogen production rate of 1300 molH2 mol 1 Ni. A direct relationship between Ni metal surface area and hydrogen yields was established.

文摘Hydrogen production by catalytic reforming of simulated hot coke oven gas （HCOG） with toluene as a model tar compound was investigated in a fixed bed reactor over Ni/Mg（Al）O catalysts. The catalysts were prepared by a homogeneous precipitation method using urea hydrolysis and characterized by ICE BET, XRD, TPR, TEM and TG. XRD showed that the hydrotalcite type precursor after calcination formed （Ni, Mg）Al2O4 spinel and Ni-Mg-O solid solution structure. TPR results suggested that the increase in Ni/Mg molar ratio gave rise to the decrease in the reduction temperature of Ni^2＋ to Ni^0 on Ni/Mg（Al）O catalysts. The reaction results indicated that toluene and CH4 could completely be converted to H2 and CO in the catalytic reforming of the simulated HCOG under atmospheric pressure and the amount of H2 in the reaction effluent gas was about 4 times more than that in original HCOG. The catalysts with lower Ni/Mg molar ratio showed better catalytic activity and resistance to coking, which may become promising catalysts in the catalytic reforming of HCOG.
