The catalyst was prepared by impregnation method and characterized by XRD,Raman and XPS techniques. Appropriate amount of CO2 in the reactant gases enhanced the formation of surface tetrahedral Na2WO4 species and promoted the migration of O in MOx,Na,W from the catalyst bulk to surface,which were favorable for oxidative coupling of methane. When the molar ratio of CH4/O2/CO2 was 3/1/2,enriched surface tetrahedral Na2WO4 species and high surface concentration of O in MOx,Na,W were detected,and then high CH4 conversion of 33.1% and high C2H4 selectivity of 56.2% were obtained. With further increase of CO2 in the reagent gases,the content of active surface tetrahedral Na2WO4 species and surface concentration of O in MOx,Na,W decreased,while that of inactive species(Mn WO4 and Mn2O3) increased dramatically,leading to low CH4 conversion and low C2H4 selectivity. It could be speculated that Na2WO4 crystal was transformed into Mn WO4 crystal with excessive CO2 added under the reaction conditions. Pretreatment of Na2WO4/Mn/Si O2 catalyst by moderate amount of CO2 before OCM also promoted the formation of Na2WO4 species.展开更多
Long-term stability test of Mo/HZSM-5-N catalysts(HZSM-5-N stands for nano-sized HZSM-5) in methane dehydroaromatization(MDA)reaction has been performed with periodic CH4-H2 switch at 1033-1073 K for more than 100...Long-term stability test of Mo/HZSM-5-N catalysts(HZSM-5-N stands for nano-sized HZSM-5) in methane dehydroaromatization(MDA)reaction has been performed with periodic CH4-H2 switch at 1033-1073 K for more than 1000 h.During this test,methane conversion ranges from 13% to 16%,and mean yield to aromatics(i.e.benzene and naphthalene) exceeds 10%.N2-physisorption,XRD,NMR and TPO measurements were performed for the used Mo/HZSM-5 catalysts and coke deposition,and the results revealed that the periodic hydrogenation can effectively suppress coke deposition by removing the inert aromatic-type coke,thus ensuring Mo/HZSM-5 partly maintained its activity even in the presence of large amount of coke deposition.The effect of zeolite particle size on the catalytic activity was also explored,and the results showed that the nano-sized zeolite with low diffusion resistance performed better.It is recognized that the size effect was enhanced by reaction time,and it became more remarkable in a long-term MDA reaction even at a low space velocity.展开更多

The physicochemical properties of the materials were characterized by means of XRD, BET, SEM, TEM/SAED (selected-area electron diffraction), XPS and H2-TPR techniques. It is found that doping Sr2+ to La2CuO4 lattice enhanced the catalytic activity for methane combustion and the LaSrCuO4 catalyst derived from PEG is the best among the tested ones. It is concluded that factors, such as adsorbed oxygen species concentration, reducibility and surface area, determined the catalytic performance of such single-crystalline materials.展开更多

The catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), temperature program reduction (TPR) and BET surface area. Ce promoter increased surface area and Na2WO4 species dispersion, which enriched the amount of the surface species. In addition, Ce promoter increased the Na/W species reduction, but the reduction peak shifted to higher temperature. Stability test of 5wt%Ce catalyst indicated suitable performance and stability. The selectivity and yield of C^2+ hydrocarbons after 50 h operation reached 65.5% and 19.6%, respectively, at 840 ℃ over 5wt%Ce-2wt%Mn5wt%Na2WO4/SiO2 catalyst.展开更多

The prepared catalysts were characterized by BET, XRD,TGA, H_2-TPR and SEM. Experimental results indicate that the addition of Ce can impact both sample morphology and catalytic performance significantly compared with La_2CoO_4 catalyst, and LaCeCoO_4 presented the highest catalytic ability among all the samples. The Ce addition tends to increase the specific surface area of La_(2-x)Ce_xCoO_(4±y)from 0.2 to 8.5 m^2·g^(-1), suggesting that LaCeCoO_4 catalyst contained more well-dispersed active sites and more space to reaction. Moreover, the catalytic performance and anti-coking ability were substantially improved after Ce addition during DRM, which may be attributed to the decrease of LaCoO_3 particle size and growth of oxygen storage capacity, respectively.展开更多

However, most literature reported either Rh- or FePO4-based catalysts, and the results were rarely studied in a uniform environmental condition. In this report, comparative study was conducted on silica- and silicon carbide-supported rhodium and iron phosphate catalysts with the main focuses on stability performance and coke deposition. The catalytic results demonstrated that the stability of both Rh- and FePO4-based catalysts was greatly influenced by the supports used, and silicon carbide-supported catalysts showed much better anti-coking ability as compared with silica-supported ones. Temperature-programmed oxidation over the used catalysts further indicated that the coke formation mechanisms were completely different between silica-supported rhodium and iron phosphate catalysts. While cokes might be caused by condensation of CH2Br2over supported iron phosphate, methane decomposition might be the reason for coke formation over silica-supported rhodium catalyst. These findings might pave the way for designing highly efficient and stable catalysts of the OBM reaction.展开更多
