Three typical surfactants, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and pluronic P123 triblock copolymer (EO20PO70EO20), were employed. Compared to surfactant-free CuCoMn catalyst, CO conversion increased from 17.4% to 29.7% over SDS-modified CuCoMn catalyst, and the selectivity of higher alcohols increased from 22.0% to 41.2% over CTAB-modified catalyst. Besides, the proportions of higher alcohols in total alcohols increased over all surfactantmodified catalysts. The catalysts were characterized by N2 adsorption/desorption, XRD, XPS and IR analysis. The results showed that several more favorable features rendered the CTAB-modified CuCoMn catalyst to be suitable for higher alcohol production, such as the larger pore size, better crystallinity of CuCoMnO4 spinel. moderate surface atomic distribution and lower valence of metallic ions. In addition, it was verified that CTAB addition at the metal precipitation stage was beneficial to higher alcohol synthesis. Surfactant-induced modification provides a promising alternative method for catalyst improvement in synthesis of higher alcohols.展开更多

The introduction of zeolites (HY, HZSM) and other additives could lead to an increase of the concentration of acid centers, which were able to react with sulfur compounds, along with an increase of total catalysts’ pore volume, which could improve the capability of catalyst to adsorb the hydrogen and feed oil.展开更多
The catalytic activity of trimethyl phosphite modified HZSM-5 zeolite and un-modified HZSM-5zeolite treated with 100% steam at 673,773,873,973 and 1073K, respectively, were investigated using heptanecracking as a prob...The catalytic activity of trimethyl phosphite modified HZSM-5 zeolite and un-modified HZSM-5zeolite treated with 100% steam at 673,773,873,973 and 1073K, respectively, were investigated using heptanecracking as a probe reaction. The results showed that the heptane conversion of both trimethyl phosphitetreated samples and un-phosphated samples decreased with an increase in treating temperature, but trimethylphosphite modified samples showed higher activity in comparison with the un-modified samples, which weresteam-treated at a higher temperature. The results were firstly elucidated by the model cluster method andcomputational quantum chemistry method. Full optimization and frequency analysis of all cluster model havebeen carried out using the Gaussian 94 software-package with the PM 3 semi-empirical method performed onsmall cluster models. The computational results showed that the dealumination of trimethyl phosphite modi-fied zeolite model cluster was more difficult than that of un-modified zeolite model cluster when they weretreated with steam while investigating the heat of reaction.展开更多
