Incorporation of strontium into V-Mo alumina-supported catalyst enhanced its performance (increased conversion and selectivity,decreased reducibility and improved stability) in propane oxydehydrogenation to propylene....Incorporation of strontium into V-Mo alumina-supported catalyst enhanced its performance (increased conversion and selectivity,decreased reducibility and improved stability) in propane oxydehydrogenation to propylene.12.5% Sr loading was shown to be the optimum content to the V-Mo catalyst.The results were supported by various characterization techniques,namely,BET,XRD,SEM,FTIR and TPD.展开更多
The nature of support and type of active metal affect catalytic performance.

The ...The nature of support and type of active metal affect catalytic performance. In this work, the effect of using La203 as promoter and support for Ni/γ-A1203 catalysts in dry reforming of methane was investigated. The reforming reactions were carried out at atmosphenc pressure in the temperature range of 500-2700℃. The activity and stability of the catalyst, carbon formation, and syngas （H2/CO） ratio were determined. Various techniques were applied for characterization of both fresh and used catalysts. Addition of La2O3 to the catalyst matrix improved the dispersion of Ni and adsorption of CO2, thus its activity and stability enhanced.展开更多
