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

The effects of CuO on NO+CO reaction were investigated, and the structure and reductive properties of various CuO/Ce x Ti 1- x O 2 were characterized by the methodologies of BET, TPR and XRD. The results show that different Ce/Ti mole ratios and calcination temperatures induce changes of structure and reductive properties of the Ce x Ti 1- x O 2 mixed oxides. When x =0.1~0.5, amorphous CeTi 2O 6 phase mainly forms at 650 ℃ compared to the formation of CeTi 2O 6 which crystallizes at 800 ℃. When x >0.6, some TiO 2 enters the CeO 2 lattice and a CeO 2 TiO 2 solid solution is formed. The activity of 6%CuO/Ce x Ti 1- x O 2 calcined at 650 ℃ is largely affected by the x values, which is the highest when x =0.3, 0.4 and 0.9. The NO conversion reaches 70% at a reaction temperature of 150 ℃. By comparison, the x values have little effect on the activity of 6%CuO/Ce x Ti 1- x O 2 calcined at 800 ℃ . There are strong interactions between CuO and CeTi 2O 6, i.e., formation of the CeTi 2O 6 phase shifts the CuO reduction peak temperature from 380 to 200 ℃, and CuO, in turn, shifts the CeTi 2O 6 reduction peak temperature from 600 to 300 ℃.展开更多
A series of Fe2O3/Al2O3, Fe2O3/CeO2, Ce0.7Zr0.3O2, and Fe2O3/Ce1-xZrxO2(x = 0.1–0.4) oxides was prepared and their physicochemical features were investigated by X-ray diffraction(XRD), transmission electron micro...A series of Fe2O3/Al2O3, Fe2O3/CeO2, Ce0.7Zr0.3O2, and Fe2O3/Ce1-xZrxO2(x = 0.1–0.4) oxides was prepared and their physicochemical features were investigated by X-ray diffraction(XRD), transmission electron microscope(TEM), and H2-temperature-programmed reduction(H2-TPR) techniques. The gas–solid reactions between these oxides and methane for syngas generation as well as the catalytic performance for selective oxidation of carbon deposition in O2-enriched atmosphere were investigated in detail. The results show that the samples with the presence of Fe2O3show much higher activity for methane oxidation compared with the Ce0.7Zr0.3O2solid solution,while the CeO2-contained samples represent higher CO selectively in methane oxidation than the Fe2O3/Al2O3sample. This suggests that the iron species should be the active sites for methane activation, and the cerium oxides provide the oxygen source for the selective oxidation of the activated methane to syngas during the reaction between methane and Fe2O3/Ce0.7Zr0.3O2. For the oxidation process of the carbon deposition, the CeO2-containing samples show much higher CO selectivity than the Fe2O3/Al2O3sample, which indicates that the cerium species should play a very important role in catalyzing the carbon selective oxidation to CO. The presence of the Ce–Zr–O solid solution could induce the growth direction of the carbonfilament, resulting in a loose contact between the carbon filament and the catalyst. This results in abundant exposed active sites for catalyzing carbon oxidation, strongly improving the oxidation rate of the carbon deposition over this sample. In addition, the Fe2O3/Ce0.7Zr0.3O2also represents much higher selectivity(ca. 97 %) for the conversion of carbon to CO than the Fe2O3/CeO2sample, which can be attributed to the higher concentration of reduced cerium sites on this sample. The increase of the Zr content in the Fe2O3/Ce1-xZrxO2samples could improve the reactivity of the materials for methane oxidation, but it also reduces the selectivity for CO formation.展开更多

The structural and textural properties of the synthesized supports were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD), N2 adsorption-desorption, Raman spectroscopy, H2-temperature programmed reduction(H2-TPR) and H2-chemisorption. Upon addition of Pr, XRD patterns and Raman spectra indicated an enlargement of ceria unit cell and the characteristics Raman broad peak at 570 cm^(-1) which was attributed to the existence of oxygen vacancies in the ceria lattice. This indicated that some Ce^(4+) ions in ceria were replaced by larger Pr^(3+) cations. To evidence the incorporation of Pr^(3+) cations into ceria lattice,X-ray absorption near edge structure(XANES) was employed. The results showed that the oxidation states of Ce in mixed oxide supports were slightly lower than 4+ while those of Pr were still the same as a precursor salt. Therefore, the incorporation of Pr^(3+) into ceria lattice would lead to strain and unbalanced charge and result in oxygen vacancies. The reducibility of Ce(1-x)PrxO2 mixed oxide supports was investigated by H2-TPR and temperature-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy experiment under reduction conditions. XANES spectra of Ce L3 edges showed a lower surface reduction temperature(Ce^(4+)to Ce^(3+)) of Ce(0.925)Pr(0.075)O2 than that of CeO2 which agreed with H2-TPR results. H2-chemisorption indicated that Pr promoted the dispersion of the metal catalyst on the mixed oxide support and increased the adsorption site for CO. For WGS reaction, 1% Pd/mixed oxide support had higher WGS activity than 1%Pd/ceria. The increase of WGS activity was due to the increase of Pd dispersion on the support and the existence of oxygen vacancies produced from incorporation of Pr into the ceria lattice.展开更多

The results of the experiment show that Ce3+ could improve the growth of spinach, and accelerate electron transport of PSII particles. Of chl-a of UV-Vis spectrum of D1/D2/Cytb559 complex, Soret band was blue-shifted by 3 nm and Q band by 2 nm, respectively, and the fluorescence emission peak was blue-shifted by 5 nm in CeCl3-treated spinach compared with the one in control. By the extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy methods, it has been found that Ce3+ is coordinated with 8 nitrogen atoms in the first coordination shell with Ce-N bond length of 0.253 nm, and Ce3+ with 6 oxygen atoms in the second coordination shell with Ce-O bond length of 0.32 nm. However, the secondary structure of D1/D2/Cytb559 complex by circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy has no significant change after CeCl3 treated. It might be that Ce3+ binds to porphyrin rings of chlorophyll and oxygen of amino acid residue of polypeptide in D1/D2/Cytb559 complex, and then accelerates the primary reaction of PSII, intensifies function of P680+ primary electron donor of D1/D2/Cytb559, but there is little change in conformation of PSII reaction center complex.展开更多

文摘In this work, the addition of praseodymium(Pr) into ceria as a mixed oxide support in a form of Ce(1-x)PrxO2(x = 0.01,0.025, 0.050, 0.075 and 0.10) was prepared using a co-precipitation method. The structural and textural properties of the synthesized supports were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD), N2 adsorption-desorption, Raman spectroscopy, H2-temperature programmed reduction(H2-TPR) and H2-chemisorption.

The reducibility of Ce(1-x)PrxO2 mixed oxide supports was investigated by H2-TPR and temperature-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy experiment under reduction conditions. XANES spectra of Ce L3 edges showed a lower surface reduction temperature(Ce^(4+)to Ce^(3+)) of Ce(0.925)Pr(0.075)O2 than that of CeO2 which agreed with H2-TPR results. H2-chemisorption indicated that Pr promoted the dispersion of the metal catalyst on the mixed oxide support and increased the adsorption site for CO. For WGS reaction, 1% Pd/mixed oxide support had higher WGS activity than 1%Pd/ceria. The increase of WGS activity was due to the increase of Pd dispersion on the support and the existence of oxygen vacancies produced from incorporation of Pr into the ceria lattice.
