It is found that all of the plasma treated catalysts show evidently improved activity and coke resistance in comparison with the non-plasma treated one. The best performance is achieved on Ni/La2Zr2O7–H2P–C,a catalyst treated in H2 plasma before calcination. TGA-DSC and SEM demonstrate that carbon deposition is significantly suppressed on all of the plasma treated samples. Moreover,XRD and TEM results testify that both Ni O and Ni sizes on the calcined and reduced samples treated by plasma are also decreased,which results in higher Ni metal dispersion on the reduced and used catalysts and enhances the interactions between Ni sites and the support. It is believed that these are the inherent reasons accounting for the promotional effects of plasma treatment on the reaction performance of the Ni/La2Zr2O7 pyrochlore catalysts.展开更多

It is revealed by H-TPR that plasma treatment can enhance the interaction between Ni O/Ni particles and the YZrOpyrochlore support. Therefore, catalysts with smaller Ni O and Ni grains sizes, higher metallic Ni active surface areas can be achieved, as evidenced by XRD, TEM and Hadsorption-desorption measurements. As a consequence, the plasma-treated catalysts show significantly improved activity, stability and coke resistance, as testified by the TEM and TGA-DSC results. Plasma treatment in H/Ar gas mixture is found to be the best condition to prepare Ni/YZrO, which can be used to obtain a catalyst with the highest activity, stability and most potent coke resistance. It is believed that the smaller Ni grain size and higher metallic Ni active surface area induced by plasma treatment are the inherent reasons accounting for the promoted reaction performance of the Ni/YZrOpyrochlore catalysts.展开更多

A series of Ln2Zr2O7 compounds with varied rare earth A sites have been prepared by a co-precipitation method. XRD and Raman have proved that pure Ln2Zr2O7 compounds have been successfully prepared for all the catalysts. By decreasing the rA/rB ratio, their crystalline structure transform from an ordered pyrochlore (La2Zr2O7) to a less ordered pyrochlore (Pr2Zr2O7 and Sm2Zr2O7) and eventually to a defective cubic fluorite phase (Y2Zr2O7). H2-TPR, O2-TPD and XPS have testified that the amount of surface active O2-species follows the order of La2Zr2O7>Pr2Zr2O7>Sm2Zr2O7 > Y2Zr2O7, which is well consistent with the reaction performance, indicating that the abundance of surface O2- sites is a critical factor influencing the reaction performance. CO2-TPD has demonstrated that a better catalyst generally possesses a larger amount of surface moderate alkaline sites, which is another factor to affect the reaction performance. It is concluded that the concerted interaction between the two types of surface active sites controls the reaction performance of the Ln2Zr2O7 catalysts. In comparison with the state-of-the art Mn/Na2WO4/SiO2, La2Zr2O7, the best catalyst, exhibits much improved reaction performance below 750 ℃.展开更多
