The physicochemical properties of the resulting catalysts were determined by scanning electron mi‐croscopy, the Brunauer‐Emmett‐Teller method, X‐ray diffraction, H2 temperature‐programed re‐duction and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The results demonstrate that the addition of a Zn promoter improves both the light olefin selectivity over the catalyst and the catalyst stability. The catalysts prepared via the impregnation method, which contain greater quantities of surface ZnO, exhibit severe carbon deposition following activity trials. In contrast, those materials synthesized using the microwave‐hydrothermal approach show improved dispersion of Zn and Fe phases and decreased carbon deposition, and so exhibit better CO conversion and stability.展开更多

Full parameter optimization without symmetry restrictions for reactants, products, the possible transition states, and intermediates was calculated. Vibration frequency was analyzed for all of stagnation points on the potential energy surface at the same theoretical level. The internal reaction coordinate was calculated from the transition states to reactants and products respectively. The results showed as flloes： （i） Coordination compounds were formed on the optimum configuration of TiCl3/AlEt2Cl.（ii） The transition states were formed. The energy di？erence between transition states and the coordination compounds was 40.687 kJ/mol. （iii） Double bond opened and Ti-C（4） bond fractured, and the polymerization was completed. The calculation results also showed that the chain growth mechanism did not essentially change with the increase of carbon atom number of α-linear olefin. From the relationship between polymerization activation energy and carbon atom number of the α-linear olefin, it can be seen that the α-linear olefin monomers with 6-10 carbon atoms had low activation energy and wide range. It was optimum to synthesize drag reduction agent by polymerization.展开更多

The processes of two-stage light olefin production, DME synthesis and the following DTO, were also investigated using biosyngas as feed gas over Cu/Zn/A1/HZSM-5 and the optimized 2%NiSAPO-34/HZSM- 5. The results indicated that adding 2%Ni to SAPO-34 did not change its topology structure, but resulted in the forming of the moderately strong acidity with decreasing acid amounts, which slightly enhanced DME conversion activity and C2=-C3= selectiw ity. Mechanically mixing 2%NiSAPO-34 with HZSM-5 at the weight ratio of 3.0 further prolonged DME conversion activity to be more than 3 h, which was due to the stable acid sites from HZSM-5. The highest selectivity to light olefins of 90.8% was achieved at 2 h time on stream. The application of the optimized 2%NiSAPO-34/HZSM-5 in the second-stage reactor for DTO reaction showed that the catalytic activity was steady for more than 5 h and light olefin yield was as high as 84.6 g/m3syngas when the biosyngas （H2/CO/CO2/N2/CH4=41.5/26.9/14.2/14.6/2.89, vol%） with low H/C ratio of 1.0 was used as feed gas.展开更多

Both compounds were catalytically active and stable for the epoxidation of cyclooctene, 1-octene, and styrene with tert-butyl hydroperoxide （t-BuOOH） as oxidant. The excellent catalytic performance was attributed to the presence of stable coordination bonds between the molybdenum oxide and copper complex, which resulted in the formation of easily accessible Mo species with high electropositivity. In addition, the copper complex also acted as an active site for the activation of t-BuOOH, thus im- proving these copper complex-modified polyoxometalates.展开更多

Carbon-supported iron carbide nanoparticles are attractive catalysts for this reaction.The catalytic activity can be improved and undesired formation of alkanes can be suppressed by the addition of sodium and sulfur as promoters but the influence of their content and ratio remains poorly understood and the promoted catalysts often suffer from rapid deactivation due to particle growth. A series of carbon black-supported iron catalysts with similar iron content and nominal sodium/sulfur loadings of 1–30/0.5–5 wt% with respect to iron are prepared and characterized under FTO conditions at 1and 10 bar syngas pressure to illuminate the influence of the promoter level on the catalytic properties.Iron particles and promoters undergo significant reorganization during FTO operation under industrially relevant conditions. Low sodium content（1–3 wt%） leads to a delay in iron carbide formation. Sodium contents of 15–30 wt% lead to rapid loss of catalytic activity due to the covering of the iron surface with promoters during particle growth under FTO operation. Higher activity and slower loss of activity are observed at low promoter contents（1–3 wt% sodium and 0.5–1 wt% sulfur） but a minimum amount of alkali is required to effectively suppress methane and C–Cparaffin formation. A reference catalyst support（carbide-derived carbon aerogel） shows that the optimum promoter level depends on iron particle size and support pore structure.展开更多

Catalytic cracking of crude bio-oil and its model compounds （including methanol, ethanol, acetic acid, acetone, and phenol） to light olefins were performed by using the La/HZSM-5 catalyst. The highest olefins yield from crude bio-oil reached 0.19 kg/（kg crude bio-oil）. The reaction conditions including temperature, weight hourly space velocity, and addition of La into the HZSM-5 zeolite can be used to control both olefins yield and selectivity. Moderate adjusting the acidity with a suitable ratio between the strong acid and weak acid sites through adding La to the zeolite effectively enhanced the olefins selectivity and improved the catalyst stability. The production of light olefins from crude bio-oil is closely associated with the chemical composition and hydrogen to carbon effective ratios of feedstock. The comparison between the catalytic cracking and pyrolysis of bio-oil was studied. The mechanism of the bio-oil conversion to light olefins was also discussed.展开更多

文摘With the rapid development of economy,the consumption of fossil fuels and excessive emissions of carbon dioxide(CO_(2))have led to many environmental issues.The thermocatalytic conversion of CO_(2) to high value‐added chemicals is an effective strategy to meet the need of carbon neutralization.Among them,CO_(2) hydrogenation to light olefins has been well researched so that the selectivity of desired products can exceed the Anderson–Schulz–Flory(ASF)distribution to acquire an extremely high yield.However,although huge progress has been made in CO_(2) hydrogenation to produce long‐chainα‐olefins based on Fe catalysts as well,designing efficient catalysts with promoted C‐O dissociation and C‐C coupling remains challenging.In addition,ASF distribution restrains the selectivity of desired long‐chain products,whereas the approaches to breaking it still face issues.In this review,we focus on the design of Fe‐based catalysts for the synthesis of long‐chainα‐olefins through CO_(2) hydrogenation.We have summarized and analyzed the reaction mechanism,design of catalysts,structure–activity relationship,interaction between Fe and promoters,and strategies to break the ASF distribution.At the same time,the issues faced by CO_(2) hydrogenation to long‐chainα‐olefins are proposed and the possible future solutions are prospected.This review aims to provide a recent development on the design of Fe‐based catalysts for CO_(2) hydrogenation to long‐chainα‐olefins while considering the ASF distribution.
文摘Direct conversion of syngas to light olefins(STO)on bifunctional catalysts has garnered significant attention,yet a comprehensive understanding of the reaction pathway and reaction kinetics remains elusive.Herein,we theoretically addressed the kinetics of the direct STO reaction on typical ZnAl_(2)O_(4)/zeolite catalysts by establishing a complete reaction network,consisting of methanol synthesis and conversion,water gas shift(WGS)reaction,olefin hydrogenation,and other relevant steps.The WGS reaction occurs very readily on ZnAl_(2)O_(4) surface whereas which is less active towards alkane formation via olefin hydrogenation,and the latter can be attributed to the characteristics of the H_(2) heterolytic activation and the weak polarity of olefins.The driving effect of zeolite component towards CO conversion was demonstrated by microkinetic simulations,which is sensitive to reaction conditions like space velocity and reaction temperature.Under a fixed ratio of active sites between oxide and zeolite components,the concept of the“impossible trinity”of high CO conversion,high olefin selectivity,and high space velocity can thus be manifested.This work thus provides a comprehensive kinetic picture on the direct STO conversion,offering valuable insights for the design of each component of bifunctional catalysts and the optimization of reaction conditions.
文摘Fe-based catalysts are widely used for CO_(2)hydrogenation to light olefins(C_(2–4)=);however,precise regulation of active phases and the balance between intermediate reactions remain significant challenges.Herein,we find that the addition of moderate amounts of Ti forms a strong interaction with Fe compositions,modulating the Fe_(3)O_(4)and Fe_(5)C_(2)contents.Enhanced interaction leads to an increased Fe_(5)C_(2)/Fe_(3)O_(4)ratio,which in turn enhances the adsorption of reactants and intermediates,promoting CO hydrogenation to unsaturated alkyl groups and facilitating C–C coupling.Furthermore,the strong Fe-Ti interaction induces the preferential growth of Fe_(5)C_(2)into prismatic structures that expose the(020),(–112),and(311)facets,forming compact active interfacial sites with Fe_(3)O_(4)nanoparticles.These facet and interfacial effects significantly promote the synergistic coupling of the reverse water gas shift and Fischer-Tropsch reactions.The optimized 3K/FeTi catalyst with the highest Fe_(5)C_(2)/Fe_(3)O_(4)ratio of 3.6 achieves a 52.2%CO_(2)conversion rate,with 44.5%selectivity for C2–4=and 9.5%for CO,and the highest space-time yield of 412.0 mg gcat^(–1)h^(–1)for C_(2–4)=.

文摘Fe‐based catalysts for the production of light olefins via the Fischer‐Tropsch synthesis were modi‐fied by adding a Zn promoter using both microwave‐hydrothermal and impregnation methods. The physicochemical properties of the resulting catalysts were determined by scanning electron mi‐croscopy, the Brunauer‐Emmett‐Teller method, X‐ray diffraction, H2 temperature‐programed re‐duction and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The results demonstrate that the addition of a Zn promoter improves both the light olefin selectivity over the catalyst and the catalyst stability. The catalysts prepared via the impregnation method, which contain greater quantities of surface ZnO, exhibit severe carbon deposition following activity trials. In contrast, those materials synthesized using the microwave‐hydrothermal approach show improved dispersion of Zn and Fe phases and decreased carbon deposition, and so exhibit better CO conversion and stability.

文摘The ZSM-5 zeolite with an unusual snowflake-shaped morphology was hydrothermally synthesized for the first time,and compared with common ellipsoidal and boat-like shaped samples.These samples were characterized by N2 adsorption-desorption,X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy,scanning electron microscopy,X-ray diffraction,magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance,temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia,and infrared spectroscopy of pyridine adsorption.The results suggest that the BET surface area and SiO2/Al2O3 ratio of these samples are similar,while the snowflake-shaped ZSM-5 zeolite possesses more of the（101） face,and distortion,dislocation,and asymmetry in the framework,resulting in a larger number of acid sites than the conventional samples.Catalysts for the methanol to olefin（MTO） reaction were prepared by loading Ca on the samples.The snowflake-shaped Ca/ZSM-5 zeolite exhibited excellent selectivity for total light olefin（72%） and propene（39%） in MTO.The catalytic performance influenced by the morphology can be mainly attributed to the snowflake-shaped ZSM-5 zeolite possessing distortion,dislocation,and asymmetry in the framework,and lower diffusion limitation than the conventional samples.
文摘The density functional theory on the level of B3LYP/6-31G was empolyed to study the chain growth mechanism in polymerization process of α-linear olefin in TiCl3/AlEt2Cl catalytic system to synthesize drag reduction agent. Full parameter optimization without symmetry restrictions for reactants, products, the possible transition states, and intermediates was calculated. Vibration frequency was analyzed for all of stagnation points on the potential energy surface at the same theoretical level. The internal reaction coordinate was calculated from the transition states to reactants and products respectively. The results showed as flloes： （i） Coordination compounds were formed on the optimum configuration of TiCl3/AlEt2Cl.（ii） The transition states were formed. The energy di？erence between transition states and the coordination compounds was 40.687 kJ/mol. （iii） Double bond opened and Ti-C（4） bond fractured, and the polymerization was completed. The calculation results also showed that the chain growth mechanism did not essentially change with the increase of carbon atom number of α-linear olefin. From the relationship between polymerization activation energy and carbon atom number of the α-linear olefin, it can be seen that the α-linear olefin monomers with 6-10 carbon atoms had low activation energy and wide range. It was optimum to synthesize drag reduction agent by polymerization.

文摘NiSAPO-34 and NiSAPO-34/HZSM-5 were prepared and evaluated for the performance of dimethyl ether （DME） conversion to light olefins （DTO）. The processes of two-stage light olefin production, DME synthesis and the following DTO, were also investigated using biosyngas as feed gas over Cu/Zn/A1/HZSM-5 and the optimized 2%NiSAPO-34/HZSM- 5. The results indicated that adding 2%Ni to SAPO-34 did not change its topology structure, but resulted in the forming of the moderately strong acidity with decreasing acid amounts, which slightly enhanced DME conversion activity and C2=-C3= selectiw ity. Mechanically mixing 2%NiSAPO-34 with HZSM-5 at the weight ratio of 3.0 further prolonged DME conversion activity to be more than 3 h, which was due to the stable acid sites from HZSM-5. The highest selectivity to light olefins of 90.8% was achieved at 2 h time on stream. The application of the optimized 2%NiSAPO-34/HZSM-5 in the second-stage reactor for DTO reaction showed that the catalytic activity was steady for more than 5 h and light olefin yield was as high as 84.6 g/m3syngas when the biosyngas （H2/CO/CO2/N2/CH4=41.5/26.9/14.2/14.6/2.89, vol%） with low H/C ratio of 1.0 was used as feed gas.

文摘The catalytic epoxidation of olefin was investigated on two copper complex-modified molybdenum oxides with a 3D supramolecular structure, [Cu（bipy）]4[Mo15O47].2H2O （1） and [Cu1（bix）][（Cu1bix） （δ-MoVl8O26）0.5] （2） （bipy = 4,4＇-bipyridine, bix = 1,4-bis（imidazole-1-ylmethyl）benzene）. Both compounds were catalytically active and stable for the epoxidation of cyclooctene, 1-octene, and styrene with tert-butyl hydroperoxide （t-BuOOH） as oxidant. The excellent catalytic performance was attributed to the presence of stable coordination bonds between the molybdenum oxide and copper complex, which resulted in the formation of easily accessible Mo species with high electropositivity. In addition, the copper complex also acted as an active site for the activation of t-BuOOH, thus im- proving these copper complex-modified polyoxometalates.
文摘Co2C‐based catalysts with SiO2,γ‐Al2O3,and carbon nanotubes(CNTs)as support materials were prepared and evaluated for the Fischer‐Tropsch to olefin(FTO)reaction.The combination of catalytic performance and structure characterization indicates that the cobalt‐support interaction has a great influence on the Co2C morphology and catalytic performance.The CNT support facilitates the formation of a CoMn composite oxide during calcination,and Co2C nanoprisms were observed in the spent catalysts,resulting in a product distribution that greatly deviates from the classical Anderson‐Schulz‐Flory(ASF)distribution,where only 2.4 C%methane was generated.The Co3O4 phase for SiO2‐andγ‐Al2O3‐supported catalysts was observed in the calcined sample.After reduction,CoO,MnO,and low‐valence CoMn composite oxide were generated in theγ‐Al2O3‐supported sample,and both Co2C nanospheres and nanoprisms were identified in the corresponding spent catalyst.However,only separated phases of CoO and MnO were found in the reduced sample supported by SiO2,and Co2C nanospheres were detected in the spent catalyst without the evidence of any Co2C nanoprisms.The Co2C nanospheres led to a relatively high methane selectivity of 5.8 C%and 12.0 C%of theγ‐Al2O3‐and SiO2‐supported catalysts,respectively.These results suggest that a relatively weak cobalt‐support interaction is necessary for the formation of the CoMn composite oxide during calcination,which benefits the formation of Co2C nanoprisms with promising catalytic performance for the sustainable production of olefins via syngas.

文摘The Fischer–Tropsch to olefins（FTO） process is a method for the direct conversion of synthesis gas to lower C–Colefins. Carbon-supported iron carbide nanoparticles are attractive catalysts for this reaction.The catalytic activity can be improved and undesired formation of alkanes can be suppressed by the addition of sodium and sulfur as promoters but the influence of their content and ratio remains poorly understood and the promoted catalysts often suffer from rapid deactivation due to particle growth. A series of carbon black-supported iron catalysts with similar iron content and nominal sodium/sulfur loadings of 1–30/0.5–5 wt% with respect to iron are prepared and characterized under FTO conditions at 1and 10 bar syngas pressure to illuminate the influence of the promoter level on the catalytic properties.Iron particles and promoters undergo significant reorganization during FTO operation under industrially relevant conditions. Low sodium content（1–3 wt%） leads to a delay in iron carbide formation. Sodium contents of 15–30 wt% lead to rapid loss of catalytic activity due to the covering of the iron surface with promoters during particle growth under FTO operation. Higher activity and slower loss of activity are observed at low promoter contents（1–3 wt% sodium and 0.5–1 wt% sulfur） but a minimum amount of alkali is required to effectively suppress methane and C–Cparaffin formation. A reference catalyst support（carbide-derived carbon aerogel） shows that the optimum promoter level depends on iron particle size and support pore structure.

文摘Low-carbon light olefins are the basic feedstocks for the petrochemical industry. Catalytic cracking of crude bio-oil and its model compounds （including methanol, ethanol, acetic acid, acetone, and phenol） to light olefins were performed by using the La/HZSM-5 catalyst. The highest olefins yield from crude bio-oil reached 0.19 kg/（kg crude bio-oil）. The reaction conditions including temperature, weight hourly space velocity, and addition of La into the HZSM-5 zeolite can be used to control both olefins yield and selectivity. Moderate adjusting the acidity with a suitable ratio between the strong acid and weak acid sites through adding La to the zeolite effectively enhanced the olefins selectivity and improved the catalyst stability. The production of light olefins from crude bio-oil is closely associated with the chemical composition and hydrogen to carbon effective ratios of feedstock. The comparison between the catalytic cracking and pyrolysis of bio-oil was studied. The mechanism of the bio-oil conversion to light olefins was also discussed.
文摘Non-metallocene catalysts have emerged as a promising alternative to traditional metallocene catalysts for olefin polymerization,offering unique advantages regarding polymer structure control and product diversity.Recent advancements in ligand design and synthesis have led to the development of highly active and selective non-metallocene catalysts capable of producing polyolefins with tailored properties.These catalysts exhibit enhanced thermal stability,improved comonomer incorporation,and the ability to polymerize a wider range of monomers.Furthermore,nonmetallocene catalysts have shown potential as promising compounds for the production of novel polymer architectures,including hyperbranched and stereoblock polymers.This work provides an overview of the current state of non-metallocene catalysts for olefin polymerization,examining their advantages,challenges,and future prospects in the field of polymer synthesis.
