It was found that the activity, selectivity and stability of the catalyst are dependent greatly on geometric characteristic pf the pore structure and size of catalyst. Although the activity and selectivity of the catalysts with micro- and meso-pore structure are all high in initial stage, but their stability is low, while those with bimodal meso- and macro-pore structure are excellent. Increasing granularity of the catalyst(particle become fine) brings about an increase in isobutene conversion, but a decrease in selectivity, resulting in lower average molecular weight and iis broader distribution.展开更多

The results show that the structure parameters of NanZSM-5 type zeolite, including the bond length and atomic charges, are consistent with those predicted by ab initio cluster calculations. It was also observed that atomic charges of Si atoms were shifted to higher field in NanZSM-5 type zeolite with lower Si/Al ratio. Then, the adsorption of isobutene on NanZSM-5 with various Si/Al ratios has been investigated using grand canonical ensemble Monte Carlo simulation and Cvff-300-1.01 forcefield. The simulated adsorption amount was in good agreement with the experimental data. Based on these facts, the effects of Si/Al ratio on the adsorption amount and adsorption isotherms of isobutene on NanZSM-5 were predicted. The results indicated that Si/Al ratio was important for the adsorption of isobutene and the adsorption amount was decreased as the Si/Al ratio was increased, which can be explained that the atomic charge of Na^+ cation would influence greatly the π electrons of the isobutene double bond due to the Coulomb force. In addition, the adsorption sites of isobutene and interaction energy of isobutene with NanZSM-5 were also discussed.展开更多

Covalent organic frameworks(COFs) could be used as promising candidates for membrane-based isobutene/1,3-butadiene(i-C4H8/C4H6) separation. Owing to large amounts of COFs appearing, however, the rapid prediction of optimal COFs is imperative before experimental efforts. In this work, we combine molecular simulation and machine learning to study COF membranes for efficient isolation of i-C4H8 over C4H6. Using molecular simulation, four potential COF membranes, which possess both high membrane performance score (MPS) value and moderate membrane selectivity were screened out and the mechanism of membrane separation further revealed is an adsorption dominated process. Further, random forest(RF) model with high prediction accuracy(R2>0.84) was obtained and used for elucidating key factors in controlling the membrane selectivity and i-C4H8 permeability. Ultimately, the optimal COF features were obtained through structure-performance relationship study. Our results may trigger experimental efforts to accelerate the design of novel COFs with better i-C4H8/C4H6separation performance.展开更多

The...The dehydrogenation of isobutane (IB) to produce isobutene coupled with reverse water gas shift in the presence of carbon dioxide was investigated over the catalyst Cr2O3 supported on active carbon (Cr2O3/AC). The results illustrated that isobutane conversion and isobutene yield can be enhanced through the reaction coupling in the presence of carbon dioxide. Moreover, carbon dioxide can partially eliminate carbonaceous deposition on the catalyst and keep the active phase (Cr2O3), which are then helpful to alleviate the catalyst deactivation.展开更多

The results show that the addition of Bi component into the MoVO/AlPO4 catalyst obviously improves the catalytic performance, and the selectivity to methacrolein can increase from 14.2% to 45.1% with the increase of Bi/V molar ratio from 0 to 1. Combining the characterization results with the reaction evaluation, it is concluded that the catalytic activities of the MoV0.3Bix/AlPO4 catalysts are related to the crystalline phase composition and the dispersion of molybdenum and vanadium oxides species in general, and also to the V5+/V4+ molar ratio on the surface in particular.展开更多

The catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction, H_2-temperature-programmed reduction, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis, transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray, CO chemisorption, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. The as-synthesized Pt-Ni bimetallic catalysts possessed smaller most probable particle size with tunable Pt-Ni interaction, depending on the Ni content. The catalyst with Ni content of 3.0 wt% showed excellent activity and stability(the isobutane conversion and isobutene selectivity remained at about 38% and 92%, respectively, after 310 min) for the isobutane dehydrogenation reaction. It also provided approximately six times turnover frequency of the catalyst without Ni. The excellent activity and stability of the 3.0 wt% Ni-containing catalyst can be attributed to its small metal nanoparticles with high dispersion and suitable Pt-Ni interaction. Moreover, the Pt(Ni)-LaFeO_3/SiO_2 catalyst with Ni content of 3.0 wt% had been run for more than 35 h without obvious loss of activity,indicating its long-term stability, and the decrease in the Pt-Ni interaction that accompanied the formation of the FeNi alloy phase was thought to be responsible for the slight decrease in activity.展开更多

The effects of calcinating temperature and the addition of CaCO_3 as a pore-enlarging agent on texture structure and catalytic performance in isobutane dehydrogenation to isobutene were investigated. Characterization of N_2 sorption,mechanical strength tests,and optical photographs confirmed that the obtained carbon materials had high mechanical strength,a good degree of sphericity,and a large surface area. Introducing CaCO_3 as a pore-enlarging agent during the preparation process promoted the formation of a mesoporous structure of carbon spheres and evidently increased the surface area and oxygen content,which can improve isobutane conversion and isobutene selectivity of these carbon spheres. The conversion of isobutane reached up to 28% for this spherical activated carbon,and the selectivity of isobutene reached up to 96%. Isobutane conversion increased with an increase in calcination temperature due to an increase in the oxygen content,whereas the selectivity of isobutene decreased due to the slight decrease in the specific surface area.展开更多

By heating the catalyst at a constant rate from 150-300℃, temperature fluctuations due to non-equilibrium adsorption are minimized. The evolved gas profiles show that ODH to isobutene and water is a primary reaction pathway, while carbon dioxide, which forms from the catalyst during reaction, is the only other product. This CO2 evolution may enhance the activity of the catalyst. Isobutene formation proceeds with the participation of lattice oxygen from the Cr2O3/La2(CO3)3 catalyst. The intrinsic Arrhenius rate constant for the ODH of isobutane isk(s-1) = 1011.5±2.2exp{-((55±5) -ΔHads kJmol-1)/RT}The small pre-exponential factor is expected for a concerted mechanism and for such a catalyst with a small surface area and limited porosity.展开更多

The obtained ZrO2 catalysts were systematically characterized by the methods of N2 adsorption-desorption, powder X-ray diffraction, NH3 temperature-programmed desorption, and CO2 temperature-programmed desorption. The catalytic performance of each catalyst was evaluated in the selective synthesis of iso-C4 (isobutene and isobutane) and light olefins (C2-C4) from CO hydrogenation. The specific surface area increased for the ZrO2 catalysts obtained by treating ZrO(OH)2 hydrogel with different alcohol solvents. The amounts of both acidic and basic sites on the catalyst surface increased obviously. The catalytic activity (CO conversion) of ZrO2 catalysts also increased after the treatment with different alcohol solvents. The nighest activity was obtained over the catalyst which was pretreated with isopropanol. However, alcohol solvent treatment retarded the transformation of ZrO2 crystal structure from tetragonal phase to monoclinic phase, and subsequently resulted in the decrease of monoclinic phase in ZrO2, which led to the decrease of olefin selectivity in corresponding hydrocarbon products (C2-C4/CH).展开更多

The results indicated that Si/Al ratio was important for the adsorption of isobutene and the adsorption amount was decreased as the Si/Al ratio was increased, which can be explained that the atomic charge of Na^+ cation would influence greatly the π electrons of the isobutene double bond due to the Coulomb force. In addition, the adsorption sites of isobutene and interaction energy of isobutene with NanZSM-5 were also discussed.

文摘Efficient separation of C4 olefins is of critical importance and a challenging task in petrochemical industry. Covalent organic frameworks(COFs) could be used as promising candidates for membrane-based isobutene/1,3-butadiene(i-C4H8/C4H6) separation. Owing to large amounts of COFs appearing, however, the rapid prediction of optimal COFs is imperative before experimental efforts. In this work, we combine molecular simulation and machine learning to study COF membranes for efficient isolation of i-C4H8 over C4H6. Using molecular simulation, four potential COF membranes, which possess both high membrane performance score (MPS) value and moderate membrane selectivity were screened out and the mechanism of membrane separation further revealed is an adsorption dominated process. Further, random forest(RF) model with high prediction accuracy(R2>0.84) was obtained and used for elucidating key factors in controlling the membrane selectivity and i-C4H8 permeability. Ultimately, the optimal COF features were obtained through structure-performance relationship study. Our results may trigger experimental efforts to accelerate the design of novel COFs with better i-C4H8/C4H6separation performance.

文摘The spectral structures of acetamide-AlCl_(3)-based ionic liquid(IL)analogs were determined in detail through IR,NMR,and Raman spectroscopy.IR spectroscopy showed that 0.65AA-1.0AlCl_(3) was the coordination structure of Al and O atoms because of the resonance structure of acetamide.The mutual verification of the results of ^(27)Al NMR and ^(1)H NMR indicated that acetamide coexisted mainly in the form of cationic Al species and molecular Al species in xAA-1.0AlCl_(3),and AA/AlCl_(3) molar ratio affected the transformation of cationic Al species to molecular Al species.xAA-1.0AlCl_(3) was used as a green acidic catalyst for isobutene oligomerization,and the effects of AA/AlCl_(3) molar ratio,reaction temperature,reaction time,and volumetric ratio between IL analog and isobutene on product distribution were investigated.Optimal reaction conditions were AA/AlCl_(3) molar ratio of 0.75,reaction temperature of 60 C,reaction time of 30 min,and catalyst/i-C4¼volumetric ratio of 1.4 v/v.Under optimal conditions,isobutene conversion,(C8^(-)+C12^(-))selectivity,(C16^(-)+C20^(-))selectivity,and by-product selectivity were 85.26,80.20,6.80,and 13.00 wt%,respectively。

文摘The dehydrogenation of isobutane (IB) to produce isobutene coupled with reverse water gas shift in the presence of carbon dioxide was investigated over the catalyst Cr2O3 supported on active carbon (Cr2O3/AC). The results illustrated that isobutane conversion and isobutene yield can be enhanced through the reaction coupling in the presence of carbon dioxide. Moreover, carbon dioxide can partially eliminate carbonaceous deposition on the catalyst and keep the active phase (Cr2O3), which are then helpful to alleviate the catalyst deactivation.

文摘The effects of Bi on the catalytic performance of selective oxidation of isobutane to methacrolein over MoVO/AlPO4 catalyst were investigated by XRD, FT-Raman, XPS, UV-vis DRS techniques. The results show that the addition of Bi component into the MoVO/AlPO4 catalyst obviously improves the catalytic performance, and the selectivity to methacrolein can increase from 14.2% to 45.1% with the increase of Bi/V molar ratio from 0 to 1. Combining the characterization results with the reaction evaluation, it is concluded that the catalytic activities of the MoV0.3Bix/AlPO4 catalysts are related to the crystalline phase composition and the dispersion of molybdenum and vanadium oxides species in general, and also to the V5+/V4+ molar ratio on the surface in particular.

文摘Molybdenum based oxide catalysts Mo-H,Mo-Fe,Mo-Ce,and Mo-Sn were prepared by calcining H3PMo12O40,Fe1.5 PMo 12O40,Ce1.5PMo12O40,and Sn1.5 PMo12O40 heteropolyanion precursors at700℃,respectively.The prepared oxides have been characterized and tested for the dehydrogenation of isobutane(IB)to isobutene in the presence of CO2.The effects of temperature,time on stream,and CO2 /IB ratio were investigated.It was found that α-and-MoO3 phases were present in all catalysts.Catalytic tests showed that increasing the reaction temperature increased both the conversion and isobutene selectivity,whereas increasing the CO2 /IB molar ratio increased the conversion but decreased the selectivity for isobutene.Iron was found to be an effective additive element for the enhancement of catalytic activity compared with Ce and Sn.

文摘In this study, a series of novel Pt-Ni bimetallic catalysts supported on LaFeO_3/SiO_2 with different amounts of Ni were prepared by the lattice atomic-confined reduction of LaFe_(1-x)(Ni, Pt)_xO_3/SiO_2 perovskite precursors and applied in isobutane dehydrogenation to isobutene reaction. The catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction, H_2-temperature-programmed reduction, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis, transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray, CO chemisorption, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. The as-synthesized Pt-Ni bimetallic catalysts possessed smaller most probable particle size with tunable Pt-Ni interaction, depending on the Ni content. The catalyst with Ni content of 3.0 wt% showed excellent activity and stability(the isobutane conversion and isobutene selectivity remained at about 38% and 92%, respectively, after 310 min) for the isobutane dehydrogenation reaction. It also provided approximately six times turnover frequency of the catalyst without Ni. The excellent activity and stability of the 3.0 wt% Ni-containing catalyst can be attributed to its small metal nanoparticles with high dispersion and suitable Pt-Ni interaction. Moreover, the Pt(Ni)-LaFeO_3/SiO_2 catalyst with Ni content of 3.0 wt% had been run for more than 35 h without obvious loss of activity,indicating its long-term stability, and the decrease in the Pt-Ni interaction that accompanied the formation of the FeNi alloy phase was thought to be responsible for the slight decrease in activity.

文摘This study provides a detailed report on the synthesis of spherical activated carbon with mesoporous structure using a soluble low molecular weight phenolic resol precursor through an ammonium alginate assisted sol–gel method. The effects of calcinating temperature and the addition of CaCO_3 as a pore-enlarging agent on texture structure and catalytic performance in isobutane dehydrogenation to isobutene were investigated. Characterization of N_2 sorption,mechanical strength tests,and optical photographs confirmed that the obtained carbon materials had high mechanical strength,a good degree of sphericity,and a large surface area. Introducing CaCO_3 as a pore-enlarging agent during the preparation process promoted the formation of a mesoporous structure of carbon spheres and evidently increased the surface area and oxygen content,which can improve isobutane conversion and isobutene selectivity of these carbon spheres. The conversion of isobutane reached up to 28% for this spherical activated carbon,and the selectivity of isobutene reached up to 96%. Isobutane conversion increased with an increase in calcination temperature due to an increase in the oxygen content,whereas the selectivity of isobutene decreased due to the slight decrease in the specific surface area.
文摘The oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of isobutane over Cr_2O_3/La_2(CO_3)_3 has been investigated in a low-pressure Knudsen cell reactor, under conditions where the kinetics of the primary reaction steps can be accurately determined. By heating the catalyst at a constant rate from 150-300℃, temperature fluctuations due to non-equilibrium adsorption are minimized. The evolved gas profiles show that ODH to isobutene and water is a primary reaction pathway, while carbon dioxide, which forms from the catalyst during reaction, is the only other product. This CO2 evolution may enhance the activity of the catalyst. Isobutene formation proceeds with the participation of lattice oxygen from the Cr2O3/La2(CO3)3 catalyst. The intrinsic Arrhenius rate constant for the ODH of isobutane isk(s-1) = 1011.5±2.2exp{-((55±5) -ΔHads kJmol-1)/RT}The small pre-exponential factor is expected for a concerted mechanism and for such a catalyst with a small surface area and limited porosity.

文摘A series of ZrO2 catalysts were prepared by treating ZrO(OH)2 hydrogel with different alcohol solvents (C2-C4 alcohols) and calcining under N2 flow at 773 K for 3 h. The obtained ZrO2 catalysts were systematically characterized by the methods of N2 adsorption-desorption, powder X-ray diffraction, NH3 temperature-programmed desorption, and CO2 temperature-programmed desorption. The catalytic performance of each catalyst was evaluated in the selective synthesis of iso-C4 (isobutene and isobutane) and light olefins (C2-C4) from CO hydrogenation. The specific surface area increased for the ZrO2 catalysts obtained by treating ZrO(OH)2 hydrogel with different alcohol solvents. The amounts of both acidic and basic sites on the catalyst surface increased obviously. The catalytic activity (CO conversion) of ZrO2 catalysts also increased after the treatment with different alcohol solvents. The nighest activity was obtained over the catalyst which was pretreated with isopropanol. However, alcohol solvent treatment retarded the transformation of ZrO2 crystal structure from tetragonal phase to monoclinic phase, and subsequently resulted in the decrease of monoclinic phase in ZrO2, which led to the decrease of olefin selectivity in corresponding hydrocarbon products (C2-C4/CH).
文摘KF Zn 3(PO 4) 2 catalyst was found to be effective for isobutane oxidative dehydrogenation into isobutene. The effects of O 2 concentration in feed gas on isobutene yield and selectivity were discussed. The modification of zinc phosphate by potassium fluoride leads to the formation of a new compound KF Zn 3(PO 4) 2 and surface basic sites, the catalytic performance of which is thus improved.
