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 effects of calcination temperature on the physicochemical properties of manganese oxide catalysts prepared by a precipitation method were assessed by X-ray diffraction,N2 adsorption-desorption,X-ray photoelectron ...The effects of calcination temperature on the physicochemical properties of manganese oxide catalysts prepared by a precipitation method were assessed by X-ray diffraction,N2 adsorption-desorption,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,H2 temperature-programmed reduction,O2 temperature-programmed desorption,and thermogravimetry-differential analysis.The catalytic performance of each of these materials during the selective oxidation of cyclohexane with oxygen in a solvent-free system was subsequently examined.It was found that the MnOx-500 catalyst,calcined at 500 °C,consisted of a Mn2O3 phase in addition to Mn5O8 and Mn3O4 phases and possessed a low surface area.Unlike MnOx-500,the MnOx-400 catalyst prepared at 400 °C was composed solely of Mn3O4 and Mn5O8 and had a higher surface area.The pronounced catalytic activity of this latter material for the oxidation of cyclohexene was determined to result from numerous factors,including a higher concentration of surface adsorbed oxygen,greater quantities of the surface Mn4＋ ions that promote oxygen mobility and the extent of O2 adsorption and reducibility on the catalyst.The effects of various reaction conditions on the activity of the MnOx-400 during the oxidation of cyclohexane were also evaluated,such as the reaction temperature,reaction time,and initial oxygen pressure.Following a 4 h reaction at an initial O2 pressure of 0.5 MPa and 140 °C,an 8.0% cyclohexane conversion and 5.0% yield of cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone were achieved over the MnOx-400 catalyst.In contrast,employing MnOx-500 resulted in a 6.1% conversion of cyclohexane and 75% selectivity for cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone.After being recycled through 10 replicate uses,the catalytic activity of the MnOx-400 catalyst was unchanged,demonstrating its good stability.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

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

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

文摘The efficient catalytic conversion of fossil-based low-carbon small molecules to oxygen-containing chemicals is an attractive research topic in the fields of energy and chemical engineering.The selective oxidation of dimethyl ether(DME),which is derived from fossil resources,represents a promising approach to producing high-concentration formaldehyde with low energy consumption.However,there is still a lack of catalysts achieving satisfactory conversion of DME with high selectivity for formaldehyde under mild conditions.In this work,an efficient iron-molybdate(FeMo)catalyst was developed for the selective oxidation of DME to formaldehyde.The DME conversion of 84% was achieved with a superior formaldehyde selectivity(77%)at 300℃,a performance that is superior to all previously reported results.In an approximately 550 h continuous reaction,the catalyst maintained a conversion of 64% and a formaldehyde selectivity of 79%.Combined X-ray diffraction(XRD),Transmission electron microscope(TEM),Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy(UV-Vis),Hydrogen temperature-programmed reduction(H_(2)-TPR),Fourier transform infrared(FT-IR)analyses,along with density functional theory(DFT)calculations,demonstrated that the excellent FeMo catalyst was composed of active Fe_(2)(MoO_(4))_(3)and MoO_(3)phases,and there was an interaction between them,which contributed to the efficient DME dissociation and smooth hydrogen spillover,leading to a superior DME conversion.With the support of DME/O_(2)pulse experiments,in-situ Raman,in-situ Dimethyl ether infrared spectroscopy(DME-IR)and DFT calculation results,a Mars-van Krevelen(MvK)reaction mechanism was proposed:DME was dissociated on the interface between Fe_(2)(MoO_(4))_(3)and MoO_(3)phases to form active methoxy species firstly,and it dehydrogenated to give hydrogen species;the generated hydrogen species smoothly spilled over from Fe_(2)(MoO_(4))_(3)to MoO_(3)enhanced by the interaction between Fe_(2)(MoO_(4))_(3)and MoO_(3);then the hydrogen species was consumed by MoO_(3),leading to a reduction of MoO_(3),and finally,the reduced MoO_(3)was re-oxidized by O_(2),returning to the initial state.These findings offer valuable insights not only for the development of efficient FeMo catalysts but also for elucidating the reaction mechanism involved in the oxidation of DME to formaldehyde,contributing to the optimized utilization of DME derived from fossil resources.

文摘The photocatalytic selective oxidation of biomass-derived 5-hydroxymethylfurfural(HMF)offers a sustainable alternative to thermal catalysis.However,the efficiency of this process is significantly limited by inadequate light absorption efficiency and the rapid recombination of photogenerated charge carriers in conventional photocatalysts.Herein,we developed a Co_(3)O_(4)/ZnIn_(2)S_(4)(Co_(3)O_(4)/ZIS)photocatalyst,in which Co_(3)O_(4)functions as a multifunctional cocatalyst.This photocatalyst significantly enhances the chemisorption and activation of HMF molecules through interfacial oxygen-hydroxyl interactions.Additionally,the incorporation of narrow-band gap Co_(3)O_(4)broadens the optical absorption range of the composite photocatalyst.Besides,integrating Co_(3)O_(4)with ZnIn_(2)S_(4)leads to a 5.9-fold increase in charge separation efficiency compared to pristine ZnIn_(2)S_(4).The optimized Co_(3)O_(4)/ZIS-3 photocatalyst(3 wt% Co_(3)O_(4)loading)exhibits exceptional selectivity and yield for 2,5-diformylfuran(DFF)under visible light irradiation,achieving 70.4%DFF selectivity with a 5.4-fold enhancement compared to pristine ZnIn_(2)S_(4).Scavenger experiments and electron spin resonance(ESR)spectroscopy indicate that superoxide radicals(O_(2)^(-))and h^(+)are the main active species driving the photocatalytic oxidation of HMF.Molecular simulations reveal that the activation of HMF and the transformation of the intermediate^(*)MF to^(*)DFF are more favorable over the Co_(3)O_(4)/ZIS composite due to lower activation barriers compared to those over ZnIn_(2)S_(4).Through this work,we aim to design highly efficient and affordable photocatalysts for biomass valorization and contribute valuable insights into the mechanisms of photocatalytic oxidation of HMF.

文摘Hydrogen sulfide(H_(2)S) not only presents significant environmental concerns but also induces severe corrosion in industrial equipment,even at low concentrations.Among various technologies,the selective oxidation of hydrogen sulfide(SOH_(2)S) to elemental sulfur(S) has emerged as a sustainable and environmentally friendly solution.Due to its unique properties,iron oxide has been extensively investigated as a catalyst for SOH_(2)S;however,rapid deactivation has remained a significant drawback.The causes of iron oxide-based catalysts deactivation mechanisms in SOH_(2)S,including sulfur or sulfate deposition,the transformation of iron species,sintering and excessive oxygen vacancy formation,and active site loss,are thoroughly examined in this review.By focusing on the deactivation mechanisms,this review aims to provide valuable insights into enhancing the stability and efficiency of iron-based catalysts for SOH_(2)S.

文摘The further improvement of methacrolein(MAL)selectivity from isobutene(IB)oxidation is crucial and challenging.In this study,based on the typical Mo-Bi-Fe-Co-K-O mixed metal oxide,the rare earth element Gd-doped,Ce-doped and CeGd co-doped catalysts were prepared by co-precipitation strategy to increase the selectivity of MAL from 47.9%to 49.8%,64.2% and 68.6%,respectively.In order to elucidate in-depth the promoting effect of Ce and/or Gd,various characterizations were utilized including X-ray diffraction patterns(XRD),Raman,X-ray fluorescence spectrometry(XRF),X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),O_(2)-temperature programmed desorption(O_(2)-TPD),H2-temperature programmed reduction(H2-TPR),CO_(2)-temperature programmed desorption(CO_(2)-TPD),IB-temperature programmed desorption(i-C4-TPD)and in-situ IB-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(IB-FTIR).Both Ce and Gd finely regulate the bulk and surface structure of the catalyst,thus altering the redox ability,oxygen mobility and storage ability and basicity.Compared with Ce,Gd addition slightly regulates the variation of Co^(2+)/Co^(3+)redox couples,greatly enhances the interaction among the components on the catalyst,thus only increases the content of surface oxygen species and has little effect on their mobility.While Cecontaining catalyst performs stronger oxygen storage and migration ability,thus leading to the overproduction of surface Odefectspecies,which are proposed to be the active sites for the production of MAL and COx.The CeGd co-doped catalyst possesses the proper content of surface Odefectspecies,thus exhibits much higher MAL selectivity.Moreover,the promoting mechanism of Ce and/or Gd over IB oxidation is proposed.Therefore,this work is helpful for understanding the influence of rare earth elements on the structure of mixed metal oxides and the olefin selective oxidation reaction.

文摘Removing hydrogen sulfide(H_(2)S)via the selective oxidation has been considered an effective way to further purify the indusial sulfurcontaining due to it can completely transform residual H_(2)S into elemental sulfur.While N-doped porous carbon was applied to H_(2)S selective oxidation,a sustainable methodology for the synthesis of efficient and stable N-doped carbon catalysts remains a difficulty,limiting its future development in large-scale applications.Herein,we present porous,honeycomb-like N-doped carbon catalysts with large specific surface areas,high pyridinic N content,and numerous structural defects for H_(2)S selective oxidation prepared using reusable NaCl as the template.The asprepared NC-10-800 catalyst exhibits excellent catalytic performance(sulfur formation rate of 784 g_(sulfur) kg_(cat.)^(-1) h^(-1)),outstanding stability(>100 h),and excellent anti-water vapor,anti-CO_(2) and anti-oxidation properties,suggesting significant potential for practical industrial application.The characterization results and kinetic study demonstrate that the large surface areas and structural defects created by the molten salt at high temperature enhance the exposure of pyridinic N sites and thus accelerate the catalytic activity.Importantly,the water-soluble NaCl template could be easily washed from the carbon nanomaterials,and thus the downstream salt-containing wastewater could be subsequently reused for the dissolution of carbon precursors.This environment-friendly,low-cost,reusable salt-template strategy has significant implications for the development of N-doped carbon catalysts for practical applications.
文摘Tuning oxygen vacancy(VO)in metal oxides catalysts that efficiently activates O_(2)molecule to promote oxidation reactions remains challenging.Herein,transition metal(M=Mn,Co,and Mo)doping was used to moderate the coordination environment of VO in La_(2)FeMO_(6)and promote activity for selective oxidation of hydrogen sulfide(H_(2)S).Various techniques reveal that the introduction of Mn and Co forms the homogeneous double perovskite phase,which results in the formation of asymmetric VO.Although these asymmetric VO are more difficult to form than symmetric Fe-VO-Fe due to the shorter bond distance and stronger bond strength of Fe-O,they are more conducive to the dissociation of O_(2)molecules.Among them,the formed rich Fe-VO-Mn sites from the alternate substitution of Mn to Fe boosted the activation of O_(2)molecules of Mn-substituted LaFeO_(3).Therefore,enhanced catalytic activity and outstanding sulfur selectivity were achieved as a result of promoted oxygen mobility and reducibility.This work provides an attractive strategy for rational design of advanced oxidation catalysts.

文摘Pr0.7Zr0.3O2-δ solid solution was prepared by co-precipitation method and used as an oxygen carrier in the selective oxidation of methane to syngas(methane/air redox process). 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.

文摘The effects of calcination temperature on the physicochemical properties of manganese oxide catalysts prepared by a precipitation method were assessed by X-ray diffraction,N2 adsorption-desorption,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,H2 temperature-programmed reduction,O2 temperature-programmed desorption,and thermogravimetry-differential analysis.The catalytic performance of each of these materials during the selective oxidation of cyclohexane with oxygen in a solvent-free system was subsequently examined.It was found that the MnOx-500 catalyst,calcined at 500 °C,consisted of a Mn2O3 phase in addition to Mn5O8 and Mn3O4 phases and possessed a low surface area.Unlike MnOx-500,the MnOx-400 catalyst prepared at 400 °C was composed solely of Mn3O4 and Mn5O8 and had a higher surface area.The pronounced catalytic activity of this latter material for the oxidation of cyclohexene was determined to result from numerous factors,including a higher concentration of surface adsorbed oxygen,greater quantities of the surface Mn4＋ ions that promote oxygen mobility and the extent of O2 adsorption and reducibility on the catalyst.The effects of various reaction conditions on the activity of the MnOx-400 during the oxidation of cyclohexane were also evaluated,such as the reaction temperature,reaction time,and initial oxygen pressure.Following a 4 h reaction at an initial O2 pressure of 0.5 MPa and 140 °C,an 8.0% cyclohexane conversion and 5.0% yield of cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone were achieved over the MnOx-400 catalyst.In contrast,employing MnOx-500 resulted in a 6.1% conversion of cyclohexane and 75% selectivity for cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone.After being recycled through 10 replicate uses,the catalytic activity of the MnOx-400 catalyst was unchanged,demonstrating its good stability.
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A series of Ce1-xFexO2 （x=0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1） complex oxide catalysts were prepared using the coprecipitation method. 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 ℃.

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The selective oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural(HMF) into 2,5-diformylfuran(DFF) is an important reaction for renewable biomass building blocks. 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.

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Rational design and facile preparation of low-cost and efficient catalysts for the selective converting of biomass-derived monosaccharides into high value-added chemicals is highly demanded,yet challenging.Herein,we first demonstrate a N doped defect-rich carbon(NC-800-5)as metal-free catalyst for the selective oxidation of D-xylose into D-xylonic acid in alkaline aqueous solution at 100℃ for 30 min,with 57.4%yield.The doped graphitic N is found to be the active site and hydroxyl ion participating in the oxidation of D-xylose.Hydroxyl ion and D-xylose first adsorb on NC-800-5 surface,and the aldehyde group of D-xylose is catalyzed to form germinal diols ion.Then,C–H bond break to yield carboxylic group.Furthermore,NC-800-5 catalyst shows high stability in recycled test.
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.
