Catalyst performance tests were carded out in a fixed-bed quartz reactor under different operating conditions. Generally, as the factors improving propane conversion decrease the propylene selectivity, the optimal operating condition to maximize propylene yield is expected. The optimal condition was obtamed by the experimental design method. The investigated parameters were temperature, hydrogen/hydrocarbon （HE/HC） ratio and space velocity, being changed in three levels. Constrains such as the susceptibility of the catalyst components to sintering or phase transformation were also taken into account. Activity, selectivity and stability of the catalyst were considered as the measured response factors, while the space-time-yield （STY） was considered as the variable to be optimized due to its commercial interest. A STY of 16 mol.kg^-1.h^-1 was achieved under the optimal conditions of T= 620 ℃, H2/HC = 0.6 and, weight hourly space velocity （WHSV） = 2.2 h^-1. Single carbon-carbon bond rupture was found to be the main route for the formation of lower hydrocarbon byproducts.展开更多

The catalysts were characterized by CO-pulse chemisorption, thermogravimetry, temperature-programmed-reduction of H2,and diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy of absorbed CO. The results show that the platinum species is in oxidation state in the catalyst on Al2O3 support, so the catalyst must be reduced in H2 before dehydrogenation reaction. Addition of Sn improves the Pt dispersion, but the catalyst deactivates rapidly because of the coke formation. The interaction of Pt and Al2O3 is strong. On SBA-15 support, the platinum species is completely reduced to Pt0 in the calcination process, so the reduction is not needed. Addition of Sn improves the activity and selectivity of the catalyst. The interaction of Pt and SBA-15 is weak, so it is easy for Pt particles to sinter.展开更多

It was found that sulfated Ni-ZrO2 catalyst showed higher activity for the SCR of NO with propane than that of Ni-ZrO2. The structural and surface properties of catalysts were studied by XRD, BET, SEM and FT-IR of pyridine adsorption. The experimental results indicated that the modification of （NH4）2SO4 resulted in the generation of strong BrOnsted and Lewis acid sites and promoted the dispersion of the Ni species, which could lead to higher NO conversion and propane efficiency in NO reduction.展开更多

It was found that the catalyst using hydrogen regeneration showed the best stability compared with those regenerated by nitrogen purging and coke-burning treatment, suggesting that hydrogen regeneration is an effective approach for maintaining the performance of Pt-Sn/γ-AlOcatalysts in propane dehydrogenation reaction. The effect of different regeneration atmospheres on the metal active center and the coke deposition was investigated by XRD,TEM, N-physisorption, TPO, TG and Raman technologies, and the results revealed that hydrogen or nitrogen regeneration resulted in little impact on the size and structure of metal active center, retaining the effective Pt Sn phase over the catalyst. Moreover, hydrogen regeneration not only removed the low dense components of the coke, but also altered the property of the residual coke through hydrogenation, leading to a higher mobility of coke, and thus a higher accessibility of the metal active centers. Whereas nitrogen regeneration only removed the low dense components of the coke. Although coke-burning regeneration caused a thorough coke removal, the catalyst subjected to repeated redox exhibited poor stability due to metal agglomeration, phase segregation and the resulting large PtSn particle and core-shell structure with a Sn-rich surface.展开更多

The Pt-θ-Al_2O_3 catalyst treated at a highest dechlorination temperature showed a lowest propane rate and propylene selectivity. The scanning transmission electron microscopy showed that the dispersions of Pt nanoparticles decreased with an increasing dechlorination temperature. The temperature-programmed reduction analysis showed that higher dechlorination temperature could lead to strong interactions between the metal and support, making it difficult to reduce Pt nanoparticles. The temperature-programmed oxidation analysis implied that more coke was deposited on the metal for catalyst treated at higher dechlorination temperature. The Raman spectra and the H/C ratio showed that more side-reactions, such as cracking and severe deep dehydrogenation reactions, occurred on catalysts treated at higher dechlorination temperatures. Therefore, the lower the dispersion of Pt nanoparticles was, the stronger the metal-support interactions and increased side-reactions would be, resulting in lower catalytic activity for Pt-θ-Al_2O_3 treated with higher dechlorination temperature.展开更多

Obtained coatings were characterized through SEM, XRD, UV-Vis and the photo- catalytic activity was monitored by GC. According to results, the hydrothermal treatment facilitates the crystallization of the TiO2 anatase phase, which is present in all synthesized films. Crystal size formed from precursor solutions (estimated by the Scherrer’s equation) depends on the time and temperature of the hydrothermal treatment, wherein solution exposed to a higher temperature treatment of 150。C for 1.5 h (H150/1.5) exhibited a larger crystal size compared to those synthesized at 80。C for 1.5 h and 3 h (H80/1.5 and H80/3). Sample H150/1.5 over polypropylene resulted in a uniform and crack free coating. This behavior was attributed to the precursor solution being denser than those synthesized at 80。C. Additionally, the photocatalytic activity of the coatings was evaluated through the degradation of propane. Coating H150/1.5 reached 100% conversion after 3 h of UV light irradiation.展开更多

文摘The applicability of a commercial Pt-Sn/Al2O3 isobutane dehydrogenation catalyst in dehydrogenation of propane was studied. Catalyst performance tests were carded out in a fixed-bed quartz reactor under different operating conditions. Generally, as the factors improving propane conversion decrease the propylene selectivity, the optimal operating condition to maximize propylene yield is expected. The optimal condition was obtamed by the experimental design method. The investigated parameters were temperature, hydrogen/hydrocarbon （HE/HC） ratio and space velocity, being changed in three levels. Constrains such as the susceptibility of the catalyst components to sintering or phase transformation were also taken into account. Activity, selectivity and stability of the catalyst were considered as the measured response factors, while the space-time-yield （STY） was considered as the variable to be optimized due to its commercial interest. A STY of 16 mol.kg^-1.h^-1 was achieved under the optimal conditions of T= 620 ℃, H2/HC = 0.6 and, weight hourly space velocity （WHSV） = 2.2 h^-1. Single carbon-carbon bond rupture was found to be the main route for the formation of lower hydrocarbon byproducts.
文摘Dehydrogenation of propane on Pt or Pt Sn catalyst over Al2O3 or SBA-15 support was investigated. The catalysts were characterized by CO-pulse chemisorption, thermogravimetry, temperature-programmed-reduction of H2,and diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy of absorbed CO. The results show that the platinum species is in oxidation state in the catalyst on Al2O3 support, so the catalyst must be reduced in H2 before dehydrogenation reaction. Addition of Sn improves the Pt dispersion, but the catalyst deactivates rapidly because of the coke formation. The interaction of Pt and Al2O3 is strong. On SBA-15 support, the platinum species is completely reduced to Pt0 in the calcination process, so the reduction is not needed. Addition of Sn improves the activity and selectivity of the catalyst. The interaction of Pt and SBA-15 is weak, so it is easy for Pt particles to sinter.

文摘A series of Co3O4-CeO2 binary oxides with various Co/(Ce+Co)molar ratios were synthesized using a citric acid method,and their catalytic properties toward the total oxidation of propane were examined.The activities of the catalysts decrease in the order CoCeOx-70>CoCeOx-90>Co3O4>CoCeOx-50>CoCeOx-20>CeO2.CoCeOx-70(Co/(Ce+Co)=70% molar ratio)exhibits the highest catalytic activity toward the total oxidation of propane,of which the T90 is 310℃(GHSV=120000 mL h^-1 g^-1],which is 25℃ lower than that of pure Co3 O4.The enhancement of the catalytic performance of CoCeOx-70 is attributed to the strong interaction between CeO2 and Co3O4,the improvement of the low-temperature reducibility,and the increase in the number of active oxygen species.In-situ DRIFTS and reaction kinetics measurement reveal that Ce addition does not change the reaction mechanism,but promotes the adsorption and activation of propane on the catalyst surface.The addition of water vapor and CO2 in reactant gas has a negative effect on the propane conversion,and the catalyst is more sensitive to water vapor than to CO2.In addition,CoCeOx-70 exhibits excellent stability and reusability in water vapor and CO2 atmosphere.

文摘Selective catalytic reduction （SCR） of nitric oxide with propane in excess oxygen was investigated on Ni-ZrO2 （NZ） and sulfated Ni-ZrO2 （SNZ）, prepared by coprecipitation from a mixture of nickel nitrate-zirconium oxychloride followed by modifying with （NH4）2SO4. It was found that sulfated Ni-ZrO2 catalyst showed higher activity for the SCR of NO with propane than that of Ni-ZrO2.

The experimental results indicated that the modification of （NH4）2SO4 resulted in the generation of strong BrOnsted and Lewis acid sites and promoted the dispersion of the Ni species, which could lead to higher NO conversion and propane efficiency in NO reduction.

文摘Direct converting carbon dioxide into hydrocarbon fuels and value-added chemicals would offer a very attractive approach for efficient utilization of CO_(2) as a carbon resource.Although,olefins,aromatics and gasoline have been successfully synthesized by CO_(2) hydrogenation,highly selective conversion of CO_(2) and H_(2) into C_(2+)hydrocarbon is still challenging due to a high C-C coupling barrier and inhibiting the production of other long-chain hydrocarbons.Here,we report a composite catalyst made of InZrO_(x) and SSZ-13 molecular sieve(InZrO_(x)+SSZ-13),which exhibits 74.5% propane selectivity at 623 K.The 8-MR micropores and the higher strength of the acid for SSZ-13 benefit the formation of propane.Compared with pure InO_(x) and m-ZrO_(2) the composite oxide InZrO_(x) containing more oxygen vacancies,exhibits to be more readily reduced by H_(2) and easier to adsorb and desorb CO_(2) within the reaction temperature.All those could be beneficial to the activation and conversion of H_(2) and CO_(2).The catalytic performance of InZrO_(x)+SSZ-13 in CO_(2) hydrogenation provides a potential for production of propane.
文摘Due to the shortage supply of propylene and the development of shale gas,there is increased interest in on-purpose propane dehydrogenation(PDH)technology for propylene production.Ga-based catalysts have great potential in PDH,due to the high activity,low carbon deposit and deactivation.Ga-hydrides formed during PDH reduce the rate,selectivity and yield of propylene.In this contribution,CO_(2)is introduced into PDH as a soft oxidant to eliminate the unfavorable intermediate species Ga^(δ+)-Hx re-generating Ga^(3+)-O pairs,and also minimize coke deposition thereby improving the catalytic performance.In situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform(DRIFT)spectroscopy experiments show that CO_(2)can effectively eliminate Ga^(δ+)-Hx.At different temperatures,co-feeding CO_(2)during PDH over Ga_(2)O_(3)/SiO_(2)catalysts with different loadings significantly improves the stability of the conversion and selectivity,especially the latter,and provide a new dimension for improving the performance of PDH process.

文摘Three different regeneration processes including hydrogen or nitrogen purging and coke-burning treatment were used to restore the Pt-Sn/γ-AlOcatalysts, through which propane dehydrogenation reaction was performed in a consecutive reaction-regeneration mode. It was found that the catalyst using hydrogen regeneration showed the best stability compared with those regenerated by nitrogen purging and coke-burning treatment, suggesting that hydrogen regeneration is an effective approach for maintaining the performance of Pt-Sn/γ-AlOcatalysts in propane dehydrogenation reaction. The effect of different regeneration atmospheres on the metal active center and the coke deposition was investigated by XRD,TEM, N-physisorption, TPO, TG and Raman technologies, and the results revealed that hydrogen or nitrogen regeneration resulted in little impact on the size and structure of metal active center, retaining the effective Pt Sn phase over the catalyst. Moreover, hydrogen regeneration not only removed the low dense components of the coke, but also altered the property of the residual coke through hydrogenation, leading to a higher mobility of coke, and thus a higher accessibility of the metal active centers. Whereas nitrogen regeneration only removed the low dense components of the coke. Although coke-burning regeneration caused a thorough coke removal, the catalyst subjected to repeated redox exhibited poor stability due to metal agglomeration, phase segregation and the resulting large PtSn particle and core-shell structure with a Sn-rich surface.

文摘γ-Al2O3 was prepared by hydrothermal synthesis usingρ-Al2O3 and urea as raw materials.In this work,the eff ects of the molar ratio of CO(NH2)2/Al and reaction temperature were investigated,and a Pt–Sn–K/γ-Al2O3 catalyst was prepared.The ammonium aluminum carbonate hydroxide(AACH),γ-Al2O3,and Pt–Sn–K/γ-Al2O3 were characterized by X-ray diff raction,scanning electron microscopy,transmission electron microscopy,N2 adsorption–desorption,thermogravimetry–differential thermal analysis,and NH3 temperature-programmed desorption techniques.The reactivity of Pt–Sn–K/γ-Al2O3 for propane dehydrogenation was tested in a micro-fixed-bed reactor.The results show thatγ-Al2O3 with a specific surface area of 358.1 m 2/g and pore volume of 0.96 cm 3/g was obtained when the molar ratio of CO(NH2)2/Al was 3:1 and the reaction temperature was 140℃.The alumina obtained by calcination of AACH has a higher specific surface area and larger pore volume than the industrial pseudo-boehmite does.The catalyst prepared from AACH as precursor showed high selectivity and conversion,which can reach 96.1%and 37.6%,respectively,for propane dehydrogenation.

文摘Several Pt-θ-Al_2O_3 catalysts with similar ultra-low Cl contents were used to investigate the influence of dechlorination temperature on propane dehydrogenation reaction. The Pt-θ-Al_2O_3 catalyst treated at a highest dechlorination temperature showed a lowest propane rate and propylene selectivity. The scanning transmission electron microscopy showed that the dispersions of Pt nanoparticles decreased with an increasing dechlorination temperature. The temperature-programmed reduction analysis showed that higher dechlorination temperature could lead to strong interactions between the metal and support, making it difficult to reduce Pt nanoparticles. The temperature-programmed oxidation analysis implied that more coke was deposited on the metal for catalyst treated at higher dechlorination temperature. The Raman spectra and the H/C ratio showed that more side-reactions, such as cracking and severe deep dehydrogenation reactions, occurred on catalysts treated at higher dechlorination temperatures. Therefore, the lower the dispersion of Pt nanoparticles was, the stronger the metal-support interactions and increased side-reactions would be, resulting in lower catalytic activity for Pt-θ-Al_2O_3 treated with higher dechlorination temperature.
文摘The kinetics of propane dehydrogenation and catalyst deactivation over Pt-Sn/Al2O3 catalyst were studied.Performance test runs were carried out in a fixed-bed integral reactor.Using a power-law rate expression for the surface reaction kinetics and independent law for deactivation kinetics,the experimental data were analyzed both by integral and a novel differential method of analysis and the results were compared.To avoid fluctuation of time-derivatives of conversion required for differential analysis,the conversion-time data were first fitted with appropriate functions.While the time-zero and rate constant of reaction were largely insensitive to the function employed,the rate constant of deactivation was much more sensitive to the function form.The advantage of the proposed differential method,however,is that the integration of the rate expression is not necessary which otherwise could be complicated or impossible.It was also found that the reaction is not limited by external and internal mass transfer limitations,implying that the employed kinetics could be considered as intrinsic ones.

文摘The present investigation shows experimental results obtained with TiO2 thin films synthesized by the sol-gel method assisted with hydrothermal treatment over polypropylene, using the dip coating technique. Obtained coatings were characterized through SEM, XRD, UV-Vis and the photo- catalytic activity was monitored by GC. According to results, the hydrothermal treatment facilitates the crystallization of the TiO2 anatase phase, which is present in all synthesized films. Crystal size formed from precursor solutions (estimated by the Scherrer’s equation) depends on the time and temperature of the hydrothermal treatment, wherein solution exposed to a higher temperature treatment of 150。C for 1.5 h (H150/1.5) exhibited a larger crystal size compared to those synthesized at 80。C for 1.5 h and 3 h (H80/1.5 and H80/3). Sample H150/1.5 over polypropylene resulted in a uniform and crack free coating. This behavior was attributed to the precursor solution being denser than those synthesized at 80。C. Additionally, the photocatalytic activity of the coatings was evaluated through the degradation of propane. Coating H150/1.5 reached 100% conversion after 3 h of UV light irradiation.
