These effects were studied by using H2PtCl6, Pt(NH3)2(NO2)2 and Pt(OH)2(C2H5ONH2)2 as Pt precursors, and the mixed oxide of (Ce-Zr-La-Pr)O as base material to prepare a series of catalysts, and their performances of the catalysts were studied by TPR and CO pulse titration technologies. The results shown that Pt precursors and their solutions pH values influenced the oxygen storage capabilities, the active metal distribution degrees of the catalysts obviously, and every catalyst prepared by different precursors had an optimal pH values. It indicates that the active metals precursors and their solutions acidities have outstanding influences on the catalysts performances for the mutual effects existing between the active metals and the Rare Earth metal oxides, which results from the mate groups of the precursors and the solution acidity.展开更多

Catalytic activities were tested for a water-gas shift reaction. The results showed that the introduction of 0.5 mol.% La could significantly improve the catalyst activity for low-temperature shift reaction compared with the undoped catalyst, which might be from the introduction of La making the Cu and Mn components distribute uniformly and the synergistic effect between Cu and Mn increasing the dispersion of Cu on the surface of the catalyst. The apparent CuO phases besides Cu_(1.5)Mn_(1.5)O_4 were found in the samples with at least 3.0 mol.% La content, and the basic sites increased with the increasing of La contents at a decreased rate. With excessive La doping, La particles would aggregate and cover some active sites, resulting in that Mn could not effectively inhibit the gathering together and growing up of Cu crystalline grain, and decreased the dispersion of Cu on the surface, which resulted in the poor activity of the catalyst for WGSR.展开更多

In this work, we designed a self-supporting fuel cell system, in which H_2 from FA is supplied into the fuel cell, and the exhaust heat from the fuel cell supported the FA dehydrogenation. In order to realize the system, we synthesized a highly active and selective homogeneous catalyst Ir Cp*Cl_2 bpym for FA dehydrogenation. The turnover frequency(TOF) of the catalyst for FA dehydrogenation is as high as7150 h^(-1)at 50°C, and is up to 144,000 h^(-1)at 90°C. The catalyst also shows excellent catalytic stability for FA dehydrogenation after several cycles of test. The conversion ratio of FA can achieve 93.2%, and no carbon monoxide is detected in the evolved gas. Therefore, the evolved gas could be applied in the proton exchange membrane fuel cell(PEMFC) directly. This is a potential technology for hydrogen storage and generation. The power density of the PEMFC driven by the evolved gas could approximate to that using pure hydrogen.展开更多
