The influence of reaction temperature, pretreatment temperature, and effect of reductive pretreatment on the decomposition of methane activity is investigated. The physico-chemical characteristics of fresh and deactivated samples were characterized using BET-SA, XRD, TPR, SEM/TEM, CHNS analyses and correlated with the methane decomposition results obtained. The Ni-Al-Si (4 : 0.5 : 1.5) catalyst reduced with hydrazine hydrate produced better H2 yields of ca. 1815 mol H2/mol Ni than the catalyst reduced with 5% H2/N2.展开更多

The experimental results showed that the selective catalytic reduction(SCR) performance and SO2-resistant ability of TiO2-SiO2-WO3 were greatly enhanced by the introduction of cerium. The catalyst containing 10% CeO2 showed the highest NO conversion in a wide temperature range and good N2 selectivity with broad operation temperature window at the gas hourly space velocity(GHSV) of 30000 h–1, which was a very promising catalyst for NOx abatement from diesel engine exhaust. The catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(SEM-EDS), N2 adsorption-desorption(BET) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). The characterization results showed that the bigger pore radius, higher surface atomic concentration and dispersion of Ce and the abundant adsorbed oxygen on the surface of catalyst contributed to the best NH3-SCR performance of CeO2/TiO2-SiO2-WO3 catalyst containing 10% CeO2.展开更多

The prepared catalysts were evaluated by a series of characterization techniques including BET, XRD, SEM, EDX-mapping, TEM, H_2-TPR, XPS, NH_3-TPD and Py-FTIR. Compared to Ni/Al_2O_3 catalyst, the SiO_2-doped samples exhibited better B_3D conversion. SiO_2 could help to form a strong interaction between NiO with the support, which inhibited Ni agglomeration at high temperature, improved the Ni dispersion, and enhanced the hydrogenation activity. B_1D selectivity was mainly influenced by the quantity of Lewis acid sites in addition to the Ni dispersion. The catalyst with a silica loading of 6.4% demonstrated an excellent selectivity of 75.18%(by 13% higher than the contrastive Ni/Al_2O_3 catalyst), which was attributed to the larger amount of Lewis acid sites and the moderate interaction between NiO with the support, which could facilitate the nickel dispersion on a preferable surface area of 176.3 m^2/g of support.展开更多
