It was found that MoO3/ZrO2 catalyst prepared by one-step co-precipitation method achieved high methanation performance. CO conversion could reach up to90% on 25 wt% MoO3/ZrO2 catalyst, much higher than that on the conventional 25 wt% MoO3/Al2O3 catalyst. The Mo-based catalysts were characterized by XRF, XRD, Raman, BET, TEM and H2-TPR etc. It was found that MoO3 particles were highly dispersed on ZrO2 support for 25 wt% MoO3/ZrO2 catalyst prepared at 65-85℃ because of its relatively larger pore size, which contributed to a high CO conversion.Meanwhile, when MoO3 loading exceeded the monolayer coverage, the formed crystalline MoO3 and ZrMo2O8might block the micropores of the catalyst and make the methanation activity declined. These results are useful for preparing highly efficient catalyst for CO methanation process.展开更多

All these samples were prepared by impregnation method and characterized by N2-adsorption, X-ray diffraction(XRD), temperature-programmed reduction(TPR) and laser Raman spectroscopy(LRS). The conversions of CO for Mo-Co/Al, Co-Mo/Al and CoMo/Al catalysts were 59.7%, 54.3% and 53.9%, respectively. Among these catalysts, the Mo-Co/Al catalyst prepared stepwisely by impregnating Mo precursor firstly showed the best catalytic performance. Meanwhile, the conversions of CO were 48.9% for Mo/Al catalyst and 10.5% for Co/Al catalyst. The addition of cobalt species could improve the catalytic activity of Mo/Al catalyst. The N2-adsorption results showed that Co-Mo/Al catalyst had the smallest specific surface area among these catalysts. CoMoO4species in CoMo/Al catalyst were detected with XRD, TPR and LRS. Moreover, crystal MoS2which was reported to be less active than amorphous MoS2was found in both Co-Mo/Al and CoMo/Al catalysts. Mo-Co/Al catalyst showed the best catalytic performance as it had an appropriate surface structure, i.e., no crystal MoS2and very little CoMoO4species.展开更多

The as-prepared catalysts were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis(TG), N_2 adsorption–desorption, X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electronic microscopy(SEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). Results showed that the catalysts had well-dispersed Ru active sites and large surface area for calcination temperature ranging from 300 to 500 ℃. The conversion of biomass-derived furfural into 2-methylfuran was conducted over Ru/NiFe_2O_4 through catalytic transfer hydrogenation in liquid-phase with 2-propanol as the hydrogen source. A significantly enhanced activity and increased 2-methylfuran yield have been achieved in this study. Under mild conditions(180 ℃ and 2.1 MPa N_2), the conversion of furfural exceeds 97% and 2-methylfuran yield was up to 83% over the catalyst containing 8 wt% Ru. After five repeated uses, the catalytic activity and the corresponding product yield remained almost unchanged. The excellent catalytic activity and recycling performance provide a broad prospects for various practical applications.展开更多

The catalysts were characterized with N_2 adsorption–desorption, XRD, H_2-TPR, and NH_3-TPD, and were tested in sulfur-resistant methanation. The results indicated that the MoO_3/CeO_2–Al_2O_3 catalysts modified by boron showed higher catalytic performance in sulfur-resistant methanation. The CO conversion increased from 47% to 62% with 0.5 wt% boron content. When the content of boron was under 0.5 wt%, the results suggested there was an increase in the amorphous form of MoO_3 caused by the generation of weak and intermediate acid sites, which had weakened the interaction between the active components and supports. While, the catalyst added 2.0 wt% boron showed the strong acid sites and the largest crystalline size resulting in the uneven distribution of ceria.展开更多

The as-prepared supports were applied to prepare 10 wt% MoO_3/Ce_(0.2)Zr_(0.8)O_2 catalysts for sulfur-resistant methanation. The N_2 adsorption/desorption,X-ray diffraction(XRD), Raman spectroscopy(RS), X-ray photoelectron(XPS), temperature-programmed reduction by hydrogen(H_2-TPR) were undertaken to get textural properties, morphological information and structures of the catalysts. The results showed that Mo O_3 was highly dispersed on the surface of these three supports and Ce was mostly of coexisted in Ce^(4+)/Ce^(3+) redox pairs. Compared with Mo/CeZrimp, the CO conversion increased by 10% and 15% for Mo/CeZr-CA and Mo/CeZr-DP, respectively. This was mainly attributed to the larger specific surface area, Ce^(3+) concentration and content of active MoS_2 on the surface of catalysts.展开更多

The catalytic performance of the 5% MoO_3/CeO_2 catalysts toward sulfur-resistant methanation was investigated. The results showed that the Mo/Ce-1 catalysts with CeO_2 support prepared by calcination method exhibited the best sulfur-resistant methanation activity and stability with CO conversion as high as 75% while the Mo/Ce-3 catalysts the poorest. The supports and catalysts were characterized by N_2-adsorption–desorption, temperature-programmed reduction(TPR), X-ray diffraction(XRD), Raman spectroscopy(RS) and scanning electron microscope(SEM). The results indicated that the saturated monolayer loading MoO_3 on Ce-3 support was lower than 5% and there were some crystalline MoO_3 particles on the surface of the Mo/Ce-3. The preparation method of CeO_2 had a big influence on the specific surface area, the crystalline of CeO_2, and the catalytic performance of the corresponding Mo-based catalyst for sulfur-resistant methanation.展开更多

Herein, we have provided a facile method for preparing a series of MoP-x(x=P/Mo ratios ranging from 1 to 5) catalysts by pyrolyzing phytic acid(PA)-derived Mo complexes in a H2 atmosphere. The physicochemical properties and the catalytic activity of MoP catalysts were investigated. The results showed that the obtained MoP-5 catalyst had the largest SBETand exhibited ultra-small nanoparticle diameter of 3.6 nm, which ascribed to the chelation of PA and the confinement of deposited products.As the content of PA increased, the synthetic mechanism of MoP was also affected, which led to the difference in the valence of surface Mo species. The characterization results further confirmed that Moδ+ sites in MoP catalysts are active sites for methanation reaction and its content on the surface of MoP-x catalysts determines the catalytic activity.展开更多

All the catalysts were prepared by co-precipitation method and further characterized by N 2 adsorption desorption, H 2 -temperature-programmed reduction, X-ray di raction, Raman spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The prepared MoO 3 /ZrO 2 catalysts were tested in a continuous- ow pressurized xed bed reactor for CO methanation. The results revealed that the carrier precursors, MoO3 loading, and wash- ing treatment a ected not only the crystalline phase of Mo species but also the grain size of ZrO 2 carrier and consequently in uenced the MoO 3 /ZrO 2 activity toward sulfur-resistant methanation. The 25 wt% M oO 3 /ZrO 2 catalyst prepared using Zr(NO 3 ) 4 5H 2 O as the precursor and treated by water washing displayed the best activity for sulfur-resistant methanation due to its greater number of octahedral Mo species and smaller ZrO 2 grain size.展开更多

文摘Spinel ferrites NiFe_2O_4 supported Ru catalysts have been prepared via a simple sol–gel route and applied for converting biomass-derived furfural to 2-methylfuran. The as-prepared catalysts were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis(TG), N_2 adsorption–desorption, X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electronic microscopy(SEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). Results showed that the catalysts had well-dispersed Ru active sites and large surface area for calcination temperature ranging from 300 to 500 ℃. The conversion of biomass-derived furfural into 2-methylfuran was conducted over Ru/NiFe_2O_4 through catalytic transfer hydrogenation in liquid-phase with 2-propanol as the hydrogen source. A significantly enhanced activity and increased 2-methylfuran yield have been achieved in this study. Under mild conditions(180 ℃ and 2.1 MPa N_2), the conversion of furfural exceeds 97% and 2-methylfuran yield was up to 83% over the catalyst containing 8 wt% Ru. After five repeated uses, the catalytic activity and the corresponding product yield remained almost unchanged. The excellent catalytic activity and recycling performance provide a broad prospects for various practical applications.

文摘We reported a coaxial,micro-dielectric barrier discharge(micro-DBD)reactor and a conventional DBD reactor for the direct conversion of methane into higher hydrocarbons at atmospheric pressure.The effects of input power,residence time,discharge gap and external electrode length were investigated for methane conversion and product selectivity.We found the conversion of methane in a micro-DBD reactor was higher than that in a conventional DBD reactor.And at an input power of 25.0 W,the conversion of methane and the total C2+C3 selectivity reached 25.10% and 80.27%,respectively,with a micro-DBD reactor of 0.4 mm discharge gap.Finally,a nonlinear multiple regression model was used to study the correlations between both methane conversion and product selectivity and various system variables.The calculated data were obtained using SPSS 12.0 software.The regression analysis illustrated the correlations between system variables and both methane conversion and product selectivity.

文摘The effect of boron on the performance of MoO_3/CeO_2–Al_2O_3 catalysts, which were prepared with impregnation method, was investigated. The catalysts were characterized with N_2 adsorption–desorption, XRD, H_2-TPR, and NH_3-TPD, and were tested in sulfur-resistant methanation. The results indicated that the MoO_3/CeO_2–Al_2O_3 catalysts modified by boron showed higher catalytic performance in sulfur-resistant methanation. The CO conversion increased from 47% to 62% with 0.5 wt% boron content. When the content of boron was under 0.5 wt%, the results suggested there was an increase in the amorphous form of MoO_3 caused by the generation of weak and intermediate acid sites, which had weakened the interaction between the active components and supports. While, the catalyst added 2.0 wt% boron showed the strong acid sites and the largest crystalline size resulting in the uneven distribution of ceria.

文摘In this paper, Ce_(0.2)Zr_(0.8)O_2 composite supports were prepared by different Ce-addition methods including impregnation of cerium(CeZr-imp), impregnation of citric acid and cerium(CeZr-CA) simultaneously and deposition precipitation method(CeZr-DP), respectively. The as-prepared supports were applied to prepare 10 wt% MoO_3/Ce_(0.2)Zr_(0.8)O_2 catalysts for sulfur-resistant methanation. The N_2 adsorption/desorption,X-ray diffraction(XRD), Raman spectroscopy(RS), X-ray photoelectron(XPS), temperature-programmed reduction by hydrogen(H_2-TPR) were undertaken to get textural properties, morphological information and structures of the catalysts. The results showed that Mo O_3 was highly dispersed on the surface of these three supports and Ce was mostly of coexisted in Ce^(4+)/Ce^(3+) redox pairs. Compared with Mo/CeZrimp, the CO conversion increased by 10% and 15% for Mo/CeZr-CA and Mo/CeZr-DP, respectively. This was mainly attributed to the larger specific surface area, Ce^(3+) concentration and content of active MoS_2 on the surface of catalysts.
文摘A coaxial dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) reactor was used for plasma-catalytic degradation of tetracycline hydrochloride over a series of Mn/γ-Al2O3 catalysts prepared by the incipient wetness impregnation method.The combination of plasma and the Mn/γ-Al2O3 catalysts significantly enhanced the degradation efficiency of tetracycline hydrochloride compared to the plasma process alone,with the 10% Mn/γ-Al2O3 catalyst exhibiting the best tetracycline hydrochloride degradation efficiency.A maximum degradation efficiency of 99.3% can be achieved after 5 min oxidation and a discharge power of 1.3 W,with only 69.7% by a single plasma process.The highest energy yield of the plasma-catalytic process is 91.7 g kWh-1.Probable reaction mechanisms of the plasma-catalytic removal of tetracycline hydrochloride were also proposed.

文摘High-performance lithium ion capacitors(LICs) have been seriously hindered by the very low capacity and unclear capacitive mechanism of carbon cathode.Herein,after the combination of experimental results and theoretical calculations,it is found that the critical pore size of 0.8 nm for PF_6~-ion adsorption decreases strong interactive repulsion of electrons and largely reduces adsorption energy barrier,which greatly improves the charge accommodation capacity in electrical double-layer behavior.Most importantly,the chemical-bond evolution process of C=O group has been firstly revealed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),indicating that the introduction of C=O group can provide abundant redox active sites for PF_6~-ion adsorption accompanied with enhanced pseudocapacitive capacity.Attributed to the synergistic effect of dual capacitive mechanism,porous carbon sheet(PCS) cathode shows a reversible specific capacity of 53.6 mAh g^(-1) even at a high current density of 50 A g^(-1).Significantly,the quasisolid-state LIC manifests state-of-the-art electrochemical performances with an integrated maximum energy density of 163 Wh kg^(-1) and an outstanding power density of 15,000 W kg^(-1).This elaborate work promotes better fundamental understanding about capacitive mechanism of PF_6~-ion and offers a rational dual-capacitive strategy for the design of advanced carbon cathodes.

文摘CeO_2 supports were prepared by calcination or precipitation method and 5% MoO_3/CeO_2 catalysts were prepared by incipient-wetness impregnation method. The catalytic performance of the 5% MoO_3/CeO_2 catalysts toward sulfur-resistant methanation was investigated. The results showed that the Mo/Ce-1 catalysts with CeO_2 support prepared by calcination method exhibited the best sulfur-resistant methanation activity and stability with CO conversion as high as 75% while the Mo/Ce-3 catalysts the poorest. The supports and catalysts were characterized by N_2-adsorption–desorption, temperature-programmed reduction(TPR), X-ray diffraction(XRD), Raman spectroscopy(RS) and scanning electron microscope(SEM). The results indicated that the saturated monolayer loading MoO_3 on Ce-3 support was lower than 5% and there were some crystalline MoO_3 particles on the surface of the Mo/Ce-3. The preparation method of CeO_2 had a big influence on the specific surface area, the crystalline of CeO_2, and the catalytic performance of the corresponding Mo-based catalyst for sulfur-resistant methanation.

文摘Molybdenum phosphide(MoP) catalyst has been widely applied in hydrogenation reactions, while the preparation of unsupported MoP catalysts with ultra-small size and large specific surface area(SBET) is still challenging. Herein, we have provided a facile method for preparing a series of MoP-x(x=P/Mo ratios ranging from 1 to 5) catalysts by pyrolyzing phytic acid(PA)-derived Mo complexes in a H2 atmosphere. The physicochemical properties and the catalytic activity of MoP catalysts were investigated. The results showed that the obtained MoP-5 catalyst had the largest SBETand exhibited ultra-small nanoparticle diameter of 3.6 nm, which ascribed to the chelation of PA and the confinement of deposited products.As the content of PA increased, the synthetic mechanism of MoP was also affected, which led to the difference in the valence of surface Mo species. The characterization results further confirmed that Moδ+ sites in MoP catalysts are active sites for methanation reaction and its content on the surface of MoP-x catalysts determines the catalytic activity.

文摘In this study, the e ects of ZrO 2 carrier precursors, MoO 3 loading, and washing treatment on the catalytic performance of M o O 3 /ZrO 2 toward sulfur-resistant methanation were investigated. All the catalysts were prepared by co-precipitation method and further characterized by N 2 adsorption desorption, H 2 -temperature-programmed reduction, X-ray di raction, Raman spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The prepared MoO 3 /ZrO 2 catalysts were tested in a continuous- ow pressurized xed bed reactor for CO methanation. The results revealed that the carrier precursors, MoO3 loading, and wash- ing treatment a ected not only the crystalline phase of Mo species but also the grain size of ZrO 2 carrier and consequently in uenced the MoO 3 /ZrO 2 activity toward sulfur-resistant methanation. The 25 wt% M oO 3 /ZrO 2 catalyst prepared using Zr(NO 3 ) 4 5H 2 O as the precursor and treated by water washing displayed the best activity for sulfur-resistant methanation due to its greater number of octahedral Mo species and smaller ZrO 2 grain size.

文摘Chaining watermark is an effective way to verify the integrity of streaming data in wireless network environment,especially in resource-constrained sensor networks,such as the perception layer of Internet of Things applications.However,in all existing single chaining watermark schemes,how to ensure the synchronization between the data sender and the receiver is still an unsolved problem.Once the synchronization points are attacked by the adversary,existing data integrity authentication schemes are difficult to work properly,and the false negative rate might be up to 50 percent.And the additional fixed group delimiters not only increase the data size,but are also easily detected by adversaries.In this paper,we propose an effective dual-chaining watermark scheme,called DCW,for data integrity protection in smart campus IoT applications.The proposed DCW scheme has the following three characteristics:(1)In order to authenticate the integrity of the data,fragile watermarks are generated and embedded into the data in a chaining way using dynamic grouping;(2)Instead of additional fixed group delimiters,chained watermark delimiters are proposed to synchronize the both transmission sides in case of the synchronization points are tampered;(3)To achieve lossless integrity authentication,a reversible watermarking technique is applied.The experimental results and security analysis can prove that the proposed DCW scheme is able to effectively authenticate the integrity of the data with free distortion at low cost in our smart meteorological Internet of Things system.

文摘Most of the existing zero-watermark schemes for medical images are only appropriate for a single grayscale image.When they protect a large number of medical images,repeating operations will cause a significant amount of time and storage costs.Hence,this paper proposes an efficient zero-watermark scheme for multiple color medical images based on quaternion generalized Fourier descriptor(QGFD).Firstly,QGFD is utilized to compute the feature invariants of each color image,then the representative features of each image are selected,stacked,and reshaped to generate a feature matrix,which is then binarized to get a binary feature image.Copyright information can be converted into the copyright image by using QR code technology,which contains more information.Finally,the zero-watermark image is constructed by executing the XOR operation on the copyright image and the feature image scrambled by the Cat map.In the experiment,different parameters are selected to determine the maximum number of images that the proposed scheme can protect simultaneously while achieving good robustness.The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed scheme can effectively resist common attacks,geometric attacks and joint attacks,and effectively improve the operation efficiency of the algorithm,thus effectively decreasing the time and storage cost of copyright protection for lots of medical images.
