In this work, a proposed catalytic transformation of oxygenated organic compounds （related to bio-oil） into pure hydrogen was desighed, involving the catalytic reforming of oxygenated organic compounds to hydrogen- rich mixture gas followed by the conversion of CO to CO2 via the water gas reaction and the removal of CO2. The optimization of the different reforming catalyst, the reaction conditions as well as various sources of oxygenated organic compounds were investigated in detail. The production of pure hydrogen, with the H2 content up to 99.96% and the conversion of 97.1%, was achieved by the integrated catalytic transformation. The reaction pathways were addressed based on the investigation of decomposition, catalytic reforming, and the water gas reaction.展开更多

Effect of the intra-ehain next-nearest- neighbor （NNN） super-exchange interaction is investigated in detail and the order parameters are calculated to detect the emergence of the dimerized phases. We find that the intra-chain NNN interaction plays a key role in inducing dimerized phases.展开更多
