Much work has been done by experts to produce renewable energy, especially using vegetable oil as a raw material. Accordingly, this paper presents preparation and activity test of Cu catalyst using coconut shell activated carbon （AC） as a support, for conversion of n-pentanol and n-butanol to their alkenes as the first step of conversion of ethanol to biogasoline. This conversion is interesting due to any agriculture product containing sugar or starch can be converted to ethanol. Activated carbon was used as a catalyst support because this material is inert; hence, it would not yield unexpected side product, and pollution of environment with the used catalyst can be prevented because the used catalytic metal can easily be recovered. Results of the work showed that coconut shell carbon contained some metals, which disturbed in preparation catalyst by cation exchange process. Washing the carbon with ammonium acetate or HCI solution could reduce the metals content more compared to using water, with optimum concentration for ammonium acetate solution was 1.25 M. Application of Cu/AC in converting n-pentanol and n-butanol, based on qualitative analysis to the products using GLC, GC-MS, and FTIR, when n-pentanol and nitrogen gas were flowed into a reactor filled with Cu/AC catalyst, it could be converted to n-pentene with 200 ℃ as the optimal temperature. While when n-butanol and nitrogen gas were flowed into a reactor filled with more Cu/AC catalyst, the product was supposed to contain its aldehyde and butyl vinyl ether.展开更多

The catalytic properties and characterization of CeO2, CuO/CeO2 and Cu/CeO2 catalysts were examined by means of a microreactor-GC system, HRTEM, XRD, TPR and XPS techniques. The results show that CuO has not catalytic activity and the activity of CeO2 is quite low for CO oxidation. However, the catalytic activity of CuO/CeO2 and Cu/ CeO2 catalysts increases significantly. Furthermore, the activity of CuO/CeO2 is higher than that of Cu/CeO2 catalysts.展开更多

Both the shape of ceria and the loading of copper affect the chemical bonding of copper species on ceria surfaces and the electronic and geometric character of the relevant interfaces. Nanostructured ceria, including particles(polyhedra), rods, and cubes, provides anchoring sites for the copper species. The atomic arrangements and chemical properties of the(111),(110) and(100) facets, preferentially exposed depending on the shape of ceria, govern the copper-ceria interactions and in turn determine their catalytic properties. Also, the metal loading significantly influences the dispersion of copper species on ceria with a specific shape, forming copper layers, clusters, and nanoparticles. Lower copper contents result in copper monolayers and/or bilayers while higher copper loadings lead to multi-layered clusters and faceted particles. The active sites are usually generated via interactions between the copper atoms in the metal species and the oxygen vacancies on ceria, which is closely linked to the number and density of surface oxygen vacancies dominated by the shape of ceria.展开更多

The results indicate that the BET surface areas of the catalysts are increased in varying degrees due to the presence of ZrO2. With increasing ZrO2 content, the pore size distribution is centered on 1.9 nm. ZrO2 can efficiently restrain the growth of Cu crystal particles. The appropriate amount of ZrO2 in the Cu/CeO2 catalysts can help the catalyst keep better copper dispersion in the WGS reaction, which can lead to both higher catalytic activity and better thermal stability. When ZrO2 content is 10% （atom fraction）, Cu/CeO2-Zr02 catalyst reaches a CO conversion rate of 73.7% at the reaction temperature of 200℃.展开更多

This catalyst was characterized by particle size analysis, XRD and TG. The results of particle size analysis showed that Fe（OH）3 particles with a mean size of 17.1 nm and Cu（OH）2 particles with an average size of 6.65 um were obtained. TG analysis and XRD patterns suggested that 673 K is the optimal calcination temperature. CO hydrogenation produced C＋OH with a high selectivity above 58 wt% by using the ultrafine particles as catalyst, and the total alcohol yield of 0.250 g·ml^-1 ·h^-1 was obtained when the contents of Al2O3 and K were 88.61 wt% and 1.60 wt%, respectively.展开更多

文摘Selective electrocatalytic semi-hydrogenation(ECSH)of alkynes in water using Cu catalysts is highly relevant for the production of value-added chemicals.However,achieving high olefin selectivity still poses extreme challenges due to the susceptibility of the copper cathode in a reduction environment.Herein,a small molecule modulation electrodeposition strategy is introduced that regulates the structure of Cubased materials through modification with citric acid(CA)ligands,aiming for highly active and selective ECSH.The as-prepared EDCu-CA electrode achieves more than 97%alkyne conversion and 99%olefin selectivity.In-situ Raman and Auger electron spectroscopy(AES)data provide evidence that active Cu^(+)sites can stably exist in the EDCu-CA during the catalytic process.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations indicate that the modulation by CA contributes to maintaining Cu in a positive valence state,and Cu^(+)can inhibit the over-hydrogenation of olefins.Moreover,by utilizing a large-area electrode for longterm electrolysis,g-level conversion and a 92%separation yield of olefin can be achieved,demonstrating a viable application prospect.This study offers a promising route for designing Cu-based catalysts for the highly selective electrocata lytic conversion of organic substrates to value-added chemicals in water.

文摘Selective hydrogenolysis of biomass‐derived furfuryl alcohol(FFA)to 1,5‐and 1,2‐pentanediol(PeD)was conducted over Cu‐LaCoO3 catalysts with different Cu loadings;the catalysts were derived from perovskite structures prepared by a one‐step citrate complexing method.The catalytic performances of the Cu‐LaCoO3 catalysts were found to depend on the Cu loading and pretreatment conditions.The catalyst with 10 wt%Cu loading exhibited the best catalytic performance after prereduction in 5%H2‐95%N2,achieving a high FFA conversion of 100%and selectivity of 55.5%for 1,5‐pentanediol(40.3%)and 1,2‐pentanediol(15.2%)at 413 K and 6 MPa H2.This catalyst could be reused four times without a loss of FFA conversion but it resulted in a slight decrease in pentanediol selectivity.Correlation between the structural changes in the catalysts at different states and the simultaneous variation in the catalytic performance revealed that cooperative catalysis between Cu0 and CoO promoted the hydrogenolysis of FFA to PeDs,especially to 1,5‐PeD,while Co0 promoted the hydrogenation of FFA to tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol(THFA).Therefore,it is suggested that a synergetic effect between balanced Cu0 and CoO sites plays a critical role in achieving a high yield of PeDs with a high 1,5‐/1,2‐pentanediol selectivity ratio during FFA hydrogenolysis.

文摘Hydrogenation of methyl acetate is a key step in ethanol synthesis from dimethyl ether carbonylation and Cu-based catalysts are widely studied.We report here that the hydrogenation activity of Cu/ZnO catalysts can be enhanced by the addition of MgO promoter.The evolution of crystal phases during coprecipitation and the physicochemical properties of calcined and reduced catalysts by X-ray diffraction(XRD),thermogravimetric(TG)-mass spectrometry(MS),Brunauer-Emmett-Teller(BET),transmission electron microscopy(TEM),N_(2)O titration,in situ CO-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR)and H_(2)-temperature programmed reduction(H_(2)-TPR)reveal that the promoter effect likely lies in the presence of Mg^(2+).A proper amount of Mg^(2+)mediates the precipitation process of Cu and Zn,leading to preferable formation of aurichalcite(Cu_(x)Zn_(1-x))5(CO_(3))_(2)(OH)_(6) crystal phase and a small amount of basic carbonates such as hydrozincite Zn_(5)(CO_(3))_(2)(OH)_(6) and malachite Cu_(2) CO_(3)(OH)_(2).The presence of aurichalcite strengthens the interaction between Cu and Zn species,and thus enhances the dispersity of CuO species and helps generation of Cu^(+)species on reduced catalysts.Furthermore,the performance of Cu/ZnO catalysts exhibits an optimal dependence on the Mg loading,i.e.,17.5%.However,too much Mg^(2+)in the precipitation liquid prohibits formation of aurichalcite but enhances formation of basic nitrates,leading to a dramatically reduced hydrogenation activity.These findings may find applications for optimization of other Cu-based catalysts in a wider range of hydrogenation reactions.
文摘The atomic structure of the active sites in Cu/CeO2 catalysts is intimately associated with the copper-ceria interaction. Both the shape of ceria and the loading of copper affect the chemical bonding of copper species on ceria surfaces and the electronic and geometric character of the relevant interfaces. Nanostructured ceria, including particles(polyhedra), rods, and cubes, provides anchoring sites for the copper species. The atomic arrangements and chemical properties of the(111),(110) and(100) facets, preferentially exposed depending on the shape of ceria, govern the copper-ceria interactions and in turn determine their catalytic properties. Also, the metal loading significantly influences the dispersion of copper species on ceria with a specific shape, forming copper layers, clusters, and nanoparticles. Lower copper contents result in copper monolayers and/or bilayers while higher copper loadings lead to multi-layered clusters and faceted particles. The active sites are usually generated via interactions between the copper atoms in the metal species and the oxygen vacancies on ceria, which is closely linked to the number and density of surface oxygen vacancies dominated by the shape of ceria.

文摘To improve the denitrification performance of carbon-based materials for sintering flue gas,we prepared a composite catalyst comprising coconut shell activated carbon(AC)modified by thermal oxidation air.The microstructure,the specific surface area,the pore volume,the crystal structure,and functional groups presented in the prepared Cu2O/AC catalysts were thoroughly characterized.By using scanning electron microscopy(SEM),nitrogen adsorption/desorption isotherms,Fourier-transform infrared(FTIR)spectroscopy and X-ray diffractometry(XRD),the effects of Cu2O loading and calcination temperature on Cu2O/AC catalysts were investigated at low temperature(150℃).The research shows that Cu on the Cu2O/AC catalyst is in the form of Cu2O with good crystalline performance and is spherical and uniformly dispersed on the AC surface.The loading of Cu2O increases the active sites and the specific surface area of the reaction gas contact,which is conducive to the rapid progress of the carbon monoxide selective catalytic reduction(CO-SCR)reaction.When the loading of Cu2O was 8%and the calcination temperature was 500℃,the removal rate of NOx facilitated by the Cu2O/AC catalyst reached 97.9%.These findings provide a theoretical basis for understanding the denitrification of sintering flue gas.

文摘Contaminants(K,Na,Ca,and Mg)were introduced into Cu-SAPO-18 via incipient wetness impregnation to investigate their effect on the selective catalytic reduction of NOx with NH3(NH3-SCR)over Cu-SAPO-18.After the introduction of contaminants into Cu-SAPO-18,the quantity of acidic sites and Cu^2+ species in catalyst decreases owing to the replacement of H^+ and Cu^2+ by K^+,Na^+,Ca^2+,and Mg^2+.Furthermore,the loss of isolated Cu^2+ induces the generation of CuO and CuAl2O4-like phases,which causes further loss in the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area of the catalyst.Consequently,the deNOx performance of the contaminated Cu-SAPO-18 catalysts drops.Such decline in NH3-SCR performance becomes more pronounced by increasing the contaminant contents from 0.5 to 1.0 mmol/gcatal.In addition,the deactivation influence of the contaminants on Cu-SAPO-18 is presented in the order of K>Na>Ca>Mg,which is consistent with the order of reduction of acidic sites.To a certain degree,the effect of the acidic sites on the deactivation of Cu-SAPO-18 might be more significant than that of isolated Cu2+ and the catalyst framework.Moreover,kinetic analysis of NH3-SCR was conducted,and the results indicate that there is no influence of contaminants on the NH3-SCR mechanism.

文摘Pure metal-doped(Cu,Zn)Fe2O4 was synthesized from Zn-containing electric arc furnace dust(EAFD)by solid-state reaction using copper salt as additive.The effects of pretreated EAFD-to-Cu2(OH)2CO3·6H2O mass ratio,calcination time,and calcination temperature on the structure and catalytic ability were systematically studied.Under the optimum conditions,the decolorization efficiency and total organic carbon(TOC)removal efficiency of the as-prepared ferrite for treating a Rhodamine B solution were approximately 90.0%and 45.0%,respectively,and the decolorization efficiency remained 83.0%after five recycles,suggesting that the as-prepared(Cu,Zn)Fe2O4 was an efficient heterogeneous Fenton-like catalyst with high stability.The high catalytic activity mainly depended on the synergistic effect of iron and copper ions occupying octahedral positions.More importantly,the toxicity characteristic leaching procedure(TCLP)analysis illustrated that the toxic Zncontaining EAFD was transformed into harmless(Cu,Zn)Fe2O4 and that the concentrations of toxic ions in the degraded solution were all lower than the national emission standard(GB/31574-2015),further confirming that the as obtained sample is an environment-friendly heterogeneous Fenton-like catalyst.

文摘Cu/CeO2-ZrO2 catalysts for water-gas shift （WGS） reaction were prepared with co-precipitation method, and the influence of ZrO2 content on the catalytic structure and properties was investigated by the techniques of N2 physical adsorption analysis, XRD and H2-TPR. The results indicate that the BET surface areas of the catalysts are increased in varying degrees due to the presence of ZrO2. With increasing ZrO2 content, the pore size distribution is centered on 1.9 nm. ZrO2 can efficiently restrain the growth of Cu crystal particles. The appropriate amount of ZrO2 in the Cu/CeO2 catalysts can help the catalyst keep better copper dispersion in the WGS reaction, which can lead to both higher catalytic activity and better thermal stability. When ZrO2 content is 10% （atom fraction）, Cu/CeO2-Zr02 catalyst reaches a CO conversion rate of 73.7% at the reaction temperature of 200℃.
文摘The ultrafine particles of a new style Fe-Cu-based catalysts for CO hydrogenation were prepared by impregnating the organic sol of Fe（OH）3 and Cu（OH）2 onto the activated Al2O3, in which the organic sol of Fe（OH）3 and Cu（OH）2 were prepared in the microemulsion of dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid sodium（S）/n-butanol（A）/toluene（O）/water with V（A）/V（O） = 0.25 and W（A）/W（S） = 1.50. This catalyst was characterized by particle size analysis, XRD and TG. The results of particle size analysis showed that Fe（OH）3 particles with a mean size of 17.1 nm and Cu（OH）2 particles with an average size of 6.65 um were obtained. TG analysis and XRD patterns suggested that 673 K is the optimal calcination temperature. CO hydrogenation produced C＋OH with a high selectivity above 58 wt% by using the ultrafine particles as catalyst, and the total alcohol yield of 0.250 g·ml^-1 ·h^-1 was obtained when the contents of Al2O3 and K were 88.61 wt% and 1.60 wt%, respectively.
