Compared with thermal catalytic processes, photocatalytic production of DFF from HMF has attracted tremendous attention. Herein, the MoS_(2)/CdIn_(2)S_(4)(MC)flower-like heterojunctions were prepared and considered as photocatalysts for selective oxidation of HMF into DFF under visible-light irradiation in aqueous solution. Results demonstrated MoS_(2) in MC heterojunction could promote the separation of photoexcited electron-hole pairs, while the amount of MoS_(2) dropping was proved influenced on the photocatalytic performance. 80.93% of DFF selectivity was realized when using 12.5% MC as photocatalyst. In addition, the MC catalyst also showed great potential in transformation of other biomass derived benzyl-and furyl-alcohols. The catalytic mechanism suggested that ·O_(2)^(-) was the decisive active radical for HMF oxidation. Therefore, the MC heterojunction could be applied in photocatalytic conversion of biomass to valuable chemicals under ambient condition.展开更多

The evolution on the physicochemical properties of Pr0.7Zr0.3O2-δ during the redox process was studied by means of X-ray diffraction(XRD), H2 temperature-programmed reduction(H2-TPR), O2temperature-programmed desorption(O2-TPD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller(BET) surface area measurement and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) technologies. The results indicated that Pr0.7Zr0.3O2-δ solid solution showed the high activity for the methane conversion to syngas with a high CO selectivity in the range of 83.5%-88.1%. Though Pr-Zr solid solution possessed high thermal stability, lattice oxygen was obviously reduced for the recycled sample due to decreased surface oxygen which promoted oxygen vacancies. The increased oxygen vacancies seemed to enhance the oxygen transfer ability in the redox process and provided sufficient oxygen for the methane selective oxidation, resulting in a satisfactory activity. The problem of hot pot was avoided by comparing fresh, aged and recycle sample in the reaction.展开更多

The catalysts were characterized by means of XRD and H2-TPR. The reactions between methane and lattice oxygen from the complex oxides were investigated. The characteristic results revealed that the combination of Ce and Fe oxide in the catalysts could lower the temperature necessary to reduce the cerium oxide. The catalytic activity for selective CH4 oxidation was strongly influenced by dropped Fe species. Adding the appropriate amount of Fe2O3 to CeO2 could promote the action between CH4 and CeO2. Dispersed Fe2O3 first returned to the original state and would then virtually form the Fe species on the catalyst, which could be considered as the active site for selective CH4 oxidation. The appearance of carbon formation was significant and the oxidation of carbon appeared to be the rate-determining step; the amounts of surface reducible oxygen species in CeO2 were also relevant to the activity. Among all the catalysts, Ce0.6Fe0.402 exhibited the best activity, which converted 94.52% of CH4 at 900 ℃.展开更多

For the oxidation of butane to MA in the absence of molecular oxygen, the Ce-Fe promoted VPO catalyst has more available lattice oxygen and provides higher conversion and selectivity than that of the unpromoted one. It is supposed that the introduction of Ce-Fe complex oxides improves redox performance of VPO catalyst and increases the activity of lattice oxygen. For partial oxidation of methane to synthesis gas over LaFeO3 and La0.8Sr0.2FeO3 oxides, the reaction with flow switched between 11% O2-Ar and 11% CH4-He at 900℃ was carried out. The results show that methane can be oxidized to CO and H2 with selectivity over 93% by the lattice oxygen of the catalyst in an appropriate reaction condition, while the lost lattice oxygen can be supplemented by air re-oxidation. It is viable for the lattice oxygen of the LaFeO3 and La0.8Sr0.2FeO3 catalyst instead of molecular oxygen to react with methane to synthesis gas in the redox mode.展开更多

A single-pass formaldehyde yield of 2.0% was obtained over the FeOx-SiO2 with an iron content of 0.5 wt% at 898 K. This 0.5 wt% FeOx-SiO2 catalyst demonstrated significantly higher catalytic performances than the 0.5 wt% FeOx/SiO2 prepared by an impregnation method. The correlation between the catalytic performances and the characterizations with UV-Vis and H2-TPR suggested that the higher dispersion of iron species in the catalyst prepared by the sol-gel method was responsible for its higher catalytic activity for formaldehyde formation. The modification of the FeOx-SiO2 by phosphorus enhanced the formaldehyde selectivity, and a single-pass formaldehyde yield of 2.4% could be attained over a P-FeOx-SiO2 catalyst （P/Fe = 0.5） at 898 K. Raman spectroscopic measurements indicated the formation of FePO4 nanoclusters in this catalyst, which were more selective toward formaldehyde formation.展开更多

The selectivity to methacrolein was significantly improved by the addition of Cs, which could probably enhance the dehydrogenation ability and weaken the oxygenation ability of the catalyst based on temperature programmed reduction （TPR） analysis investigation. The kinetic studies indicated that the oxidation of isobutylene to methacrolein followed the first-order kinetic behavior.展开更多

The activity of catalysts was evaluated under simulative conditions for the preferential oxidation of CO （CO-PROX） from the hydrogen-rich gas streams produced by reforming gas, and the performances of catalysts were investigated by XRD and TPR. The results showed that the activity temperature of the modified catalysts Ru-K20/Al2O3 and Ru-La2O3/Al2O3 were lowered approximately 30℃ compared with pure Ru/Al2O3, and the activity temperature range was widened. The conversion of CO on Ru-K20/Al2O3 and Ru-La2O3/Al2O3 was above 99% at 140-160℃, suitable to remove CO in a hydrogen-rich gas and the selectivity of Ru-La2O3/Al2O3 was higher than that of Ru-K2O/Al2O3in the active temperature range. Slight methanation reaction was detected at 220℃ and above.展开更多

Among the catalysts studied, it was found that the MoVTeNbO catalyst calcined at a temperature of 600 ℃ showed the best performance in terms of propane conversion and selectivity for acrylic acid under an atmosphere of nitrogen. An effective MoVTeNbO oxide catalyst for propane selective oxidation to acrylic acid was obtained with a combination of a preferred metal atomic ratio （Mo1V0.31Te0.23Nb0.12）. The optimum reaction condition for the selective oxidation of propane was the molar ratio of C3H8 ：O2 ： H2O ： N2 = 4.4： 12.8 ： 15.3 ： 36.9. Under such conditions, the conversion of propane and the maximum yield of acrylic acid reached about 50% and 21%, respectively.展开更多

A new kind of het...Selective oxidation of saturated hydrocarbons with molecular oxygen has been of great interest in catalysis, and the development of highly efficient catalysts for this process is a crucial challenge. A new kind of heterogeneous catalyst, cobalt-doped carbon nitride polymer(g-C_3N_4),was harnessed for the selective oxidation of cyclohexane. X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectra and high resolution transmission electron microscope revealed that Co species were highly dispersed in g-C_3N_4 matrix and the characteristic structure of polymeric g-C_3N_4 can be retained after Co-doping, although Co-doping caused the incomplete polymerization to some extent. Ultraviolet-visible, Raman and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy further proved the successful Co doping in g-C_3N_4 matrix as the form of Co(Ⅱ)-N bonds. For the selective oxidation of cyclohexane, Co-doping can markedly promote the catalytic performance of g-C_3N_4 catalyst due to the synergistic effect of Co species and gC_3N_4 hybrid. Furthermore, the content of Co largely affected the activity of Co-doped g-C_3N_4 catalysts, among which the catalyst with 9.0 wt%Co content exhibited the highest yield(9.0%) of cyclohexanone and cyclohexanol, as well as a high stability. Meanwhile, the reaction mechanism over Co-doped g-C_3N_4 catalysts was elaborated.展开更多

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.展开更多

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.展开更多

By changing the ^nCTAB/^nCe ratio and hydrothermal aging time, the catalytic activity of the CuO-CeO2 catalysts increased and the operating temperature window, in which the CO conversion was higher than 99%, was widened. XRD results showed no peaks of CuOx species and Cu-Ce-O solid solution were observed. On the other hand, Cu＋ species in the CuO-CeO2 catalysts, which was associated with a strong interaction between copper oxide clusters and cerium oxide and could be favorable for improving the selective oxidation performance of CO in excess H2, were detected by H2-TPR and XPS techniques.展开更多

The reaction intermediates, buterie and furan, were found in the reaction effluent under near industrial feed condition (3% butane+15%O2), while dihydrofuran was detected at high butane concentration (12% butane, 5%O2). Some intermediates of MA decomposition were also identified. Detection of these intermediates shows that the vanadium phosphorus oxides are able to dehydrogenate butane to butene, and butene further to form MA. Based on these observations, a modified scheme of reaction network is proposed. The transient experiments show that butane in the gas phase may directly react with oxygen both on the surface and from the metal oxide lattice, without a proceeding adsorption step. Gas phase oxygen can be adsorbed and transformed to surface lattice oxygen but it can not participate in selective oxidation. Adsorbed oxygen leads to deep oxidation, while lattice oxygen leads to selective oxidation.展开更多

X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, UV-vis diffuse reflection spectroscopy and photoelectrochemical measurements are employed to determine the properties of the samples. It is found that the solvent has a significant influence on the morphology, optical properties and electronic nature of the samples. The photocatalytic activities of the samples have been evaluated by selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde to benzaldehyde and the degradation of methyl orange（MO） under visible light irradiation. The results reveal that the photocatalytic activities of ZnIn2S4 are closely related to the reaction solvent. The ethanol-mediated ZnIn2S4 exhibits the best photocatalytic performance toward selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde and the degradation of dye MO compared to the samples prepared in other solvents, which can be attributed to the integrative effect of the enhanced light absorption intensity and the prolonged lifetime of photogenerated carriers. In addition, a possible mechanism is proposed and discussed. It is expected that our current research could promote further interest on the synthesizing efficient ternary chalcogenides semiconducting materials for environment remediation and organic transformation.展开更多

Among all the catalysts, Ce0.6Fe0.402 exhibited the best activity, which converted 94.52% of CH4 at 900 ℃.

文摘In this paper, selective oxidation of n-butane to maleic anhydride (MA) and partial oxidation of methane to synthesis gas with lattice oxygen instead of molecular oxygen are investigated. For the oxidation of butane to MA in the absence of molecular oxygen, the Ce-Fe promoted VPO catalyst has more available lattice oxygen and provides higher conversion and selectivity than that of the unpromoted one. It is supposed that the introduction of Ce-Fe complex oxides improves redox performance of VPO catalyst and increases the activity of lattice oxygen. For partial oxidation of methane to synthesis gas over LaFeO3 and La0.8Sr0.2FeO3 oxides, the reaction with flow switched between 11% O2-Ar and 11% CH4-He at 900℃ was carried out. The results show that methane can be oxidized to CO and H2 with selectivity over 93% by the lattice oxygen of the catalyst in an appropriate reaction condition, while the lost lattice oxygen can be supplemented by air re-oxidation. It is viable for the lattice oxygen of the LaFeO3 and La0.8Sr0.2FeO3 catalyst instead of molecular oxygen to react with methane to synthesis gas in the redox mode.
文摘MIL-53(Fe)was synthesized using a“modulator approach”that utilizes acetic acid(HAc)as an additive to control the size and morphology of the resulting crystals.We demonstrate that after activation under vaccum at 100℃,the MIL-53(Fe)functions well for H2S selective oxidation.The introduction of acetic acid in the presence of benzene-1,4-dicarboxylic acid(H2BDC)would result in a series of MIL-53(Fe)nanocrystals(denoted as MIL-53(Fe)-xH,x stands for the volume of added HAc with morphology evoluting from irregular particles to short hexagonal columns.The vacuum treatment facilitates the removal of acetate groups,thus generating Fe3+Lewis acid sites.Consequently,the resulted MIL-53(Fe)-xH exhibits good catalytic activity(98%H2S conversion and 92%sulfur selectivity)at moderate reaction temperatures(100–190℃).The MIL-53(Fe)-5H is superior to the traditional iron-based catalysts,showing stable performance in a test period of 55 h.

文摘FeOx-SiO2 catalysts prepared by a sol-gel method were studied for the selective oxidation of methane by oxygen. A single-pass formaldehyde yield of 2.0% was obtained over the FeOx-SiO2 with an iron content of 0.5 wt% at 898 K. This 0.5 wt% FeOx-SiO2 catalyst demonstrated significantly higher catalytic performances than the 0.5 wt% FeOx/SiO2 prepared by an impregnation method. The correlation between the catalytic performances and the characterizations with UV-Vis and H2-TPR suggested that the higher dispersion of iron species in the catalyst prepared by the sol-gel method was responsible for its higher catalytic activity for formaldehyde formation. The modification of the FeOx-SiO2 by phosphorus enhanced the formaldehyde selectivity, and a single-pass formaldehyde yield of 2.4% could be attained over a P-FeOx-SiO2 catalyst （P/Fe = 0.5） at 898 K. Raman spectroscopic measurements indicated the formation of FePO4 nanoclusters in this catalyst, which were more selective toward formaldehyde formation.

文摘Cs-promoted Mo-Bi-Co-Fe-Ce-O catalyst for the selective oxidation of isobutylene to methacrolein had been studied in a fixed bed micro-reactor. The selectivity to methacrolein was significantly improved by the addition of Cs, which could probably enhance the dehydrogenation ability and weaken the oxygenation ability of the catalyst based on temperature programmed reduction （TPR） analysis investigation. The kinetic studies indicated that the oxidation of isobutylene to methacrolein followed the first-order kinetic behavior.

文摘The Ru/Al2O3 catalysts modified with metal oxide （K20 and La2O3） were prepared v/a incipient wetness impregnation method from RuCl3.nH2O mixed with nitrate loading on Al2O3 support. The activity of catalysts was evaluated under simulative conditions for the preferential oxidation of CO （CO-PROX） from the hydrogen-rich gas streams produced by reforming gas, and the performances of catalysts were investigated by XRD and TPR. The results showed that the activity temperature of the modified catalysts Ru-K20/Al2O3 and Ru-La2O3/Al2O3 were lowered approximately 30℃ compared with pure Ru/Al2O3, and the activity temperature range was widened. The conversion of CO on Ru-K20/Al2O3 and Ru-La2O3/Al2O3 was above 99% at 140-160℃, suitable to remove CO in a hydrogen-rich gas and the selectivity of Ru-La2O3/Al2O3 was higher than that of Ru-K2O/Al2O3in the active temperature range. Slight methanation reaction was detected at 220℃ and above.
文摘The effects of metal atomic ratio, water content, oxygen content, and calcination temperature on the catalytic performances of MoVTeNbO mixed oxide catalyst system for the selective oxidation of propane to acrylic acid have been investigated and discussed. Among the catalysts studied, it was found that the MoVTeNbO catalyst calcined at a temperature of 600 ℃ showed the best performance in terms of propane conversion and selectivity for acrylic acid under an atmosphere of nitrogen. An effective MoVTeNbO oxide catalyst for propane selective oxidation to acrylic acid was obtained with a combination of a preferred metal atomic ratio （Mo1V0.31Te0.23Nb0.12）. The optimum reaction condition for the selective oxidation of propane was the molar ratio of C3H8 ：O2 ： H2O ： N2 = 4.4： 12.8 ： 15.3 ： 36.9. Under such conditions, the conversion of propane and the maximum yield of acrylic acid reached about 50% and 21%, respectively.

文摘Selective oxidation of saturated hydrocarbons with molecular oxygen has been of great interest in catalysis, and the development of highly efficient catalysts for this process is a crucial challenge. A new kind of heterogeneous catalyst, cobalt-doped carbon nitride polymer(g-C_3N_4),was harnessed for the selective oxidation of cyclohexane. X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectra and high resolution transmission electron microscope revealed that Co species were highly dispersed in g-C_3N_4 matrix and the characteristic structure of polymeric g-C_3N_4 can be retained after Co-doping, although Co-doping caused the incomplete polymerization to some extent. Ultraviolet-visible, Raman and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy further proved the successful Co doping in g-C_3N_4 matrix as the form of Co(Ⅱ)-N bonds. For the selective oxidation of cyclohexane, Co-doping can markedly promote the catalytic performance of g-C_3N_4 catalyst due to the synergistic effect of Co species and gC_3N_4 hybrid. Furthermore, the content of Co largely affected the activity of Co-doped g-C_3N_4 catalysts, among which the catalyst with 9.0 wt%Co content exhibited the highest yield(9.0%) of cyclohexanone and cyclohexanol, as well as a high stability. Meanwhile, the reaction mechanism over Co-doped g-C_3N_4 catalysts was elaborated.

文摘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.

文摘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.

文摘High performance CuO-CeO2 catalysts for selective oxidation of CO in excess hydrogen were prepared by a hydrothermal method under different preparation conditions and evaluated for catalytic activities and selectivities. By changing the ^nCTAB/^nCe ratio and hydrothermal aging time, the catalytic activity of the CuO-CeO2 catalysts increased and the operating temperature window, in which the CO conversion was higher than 99%, was widened. XRD results showed no peaks of CuOx species and Cu-Ce-O solid solution were observed. On the other hand, Cu＋ species in the CuO-CeO2 catalysts, which was associated with a strong interaction between copper oxide clusters and cerium oxide and could be favorable for improving the selective oxidation performance of CO in excess H2, were detected by H2-TPR and XPS techniques.

文摘The selective oxidation of n-butane to maleic anhydride (MA) on a vanadium-phosphorus oxide (VPO) catalyst was studied using on-line gas-chromatography combined with mass spectrometry(GC-MS) and transient response technique. The reaction intermediates, buterie and furan, were found in the reaction effluent under near industrial feed condition (3% butane+15%O2), while dihydrofuran was detected at high butane concentration (12% butane, 5%O2). Some intermediates of MA decomposition were also identified. Detection of these intermediates shows that the vanadium phosphorus oxides are able to dehydrogenate butane to butene, and butene further to form MA. Based on these observations, a modified scheme of reaction network is proposed. The transient experiments show that butane in the gas phase may directly react with oxygen both on the surface and from the metal oxide lattice, without a proceeding adsorption step. Gas phase oxygen can be adsorbed and transformed to surface lattice oxygen but it can not participate in selective oxidation. Adsorbed oxygen leads to deep oxidation, while lattice oxygen leads to selective oxidation.
文摘Oxide-supported copper-containing materials have attracted considerable research attention as promising candidates for acrolein formation.Nevertheless,the elucidation of the structure-performance relationships for these systems remains a scientific challenge.In this work,copper oxide clusters deposited on a high-surface-area silica support were synthesized via a deposition-precipitation approach and exhibited remarkable catalytic reactivity(up to 25.5%conversion and 66.8%selectivity)in the propylene-selective oxidation of acrolein at 300℃.Aberration-corrected high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy combined with X-ray absorption fine structure measurements of the catalyst before and after the reaction confirmed the transformation of the small-sized copper oxide(CuO)clusters into cuprous oxide(Cu2O)clusters.With the aid of in situ X-ray diffraction and in situ dual beam Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(DB-FTIR),the allyl intermediate(CH2=CHCH2*)was clearly observed,along with the as-formed Cu2O species.The intermediate can react with oxygen atoms from neighboring Cu2O species to form acrolein during the catalytic process,and the small-sized Cu2O clusters play a crucial role in the generation of acrolein via the selective oxidation of propylene.

文摘The selective catalytic oxidation of toluene with hydrogen peroxide over V-Mo-based catalysts under mild conditions was studied.The promotion effect of Mo on the catalysts was studied with V/Al2O3 and Mo/Al2O3 as reference samples.The catalysts were characterized by XRD,TPR,and XPS techniques.The results show that the addition of Mo to V/Al2O3 may change the distribution of V species on Al2O3 surface.Over V-Mo/Al2O3 catalyst,highly dispersed amorphous V species facilitates benzaldehyde formation,and crystalline V2O5 species increases the conversion of toluene but decreases the selectivity to benzaldehyde,while AlVMoO7 species favors both the conversion of toluene and the formation of cresols.The yield of benzaldehyde depends remarkably on the surface O/Al and Mo/V atomic ratios,and gets to a maximum value of 13.2% with a selectivity of 79.5% at an O/Al atomic ratio of 3.0 and Mo/V atomic ratio of 0.7.

文摘A series of hexagonal ZnIn2S4 samples with different morphologies have been successfully prepared via a facile solvothermal approach using different alcohol solvents with the optimum synthesis time and temperature. X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, UV-vis diffuse reflection spectroscopy and photoelectrochemical measurements are employed to determine the properties of the samples. It is found that the solvent has a significant influence on the morphology, optical properties and electronic nature of the samples. The photocatalytic activities of the samples have been evaluated by selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde to benzaldehyde and the degradation of methyl orange（MO） under visible light irradiation. The results reveal that the photocatalytic activities of ZnIn2S4 are closely related to the reaction solvent. The ethanol-mediated ZnIn2S4 exhibits the best photocatalytic performance toward selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde and the degradation of dye MO compared to the samples prepared in other solvents, which can be attributed to the integrative effect of the enhanced light absorption intensity and the prolonged lifetime of photogenerated carriers. In addition, a possible mechanism is proposed and discussed. It is expected that our current research could promote further interest on the synthesizing efficient ternary chalcogenides semiconducting materials for environment remediation and organic transformation.
