Facile preparation of nanocrystal-assembled hierarchical mordenite zeolites with remarkable catalytic performance

The present study reports a novel strategy to fabricate nanocrystal-assembled hierarchical MOR zeolites. This is the first demonstration of hierarchical MOR without preferential growth along the c-axis, which facilitates mass transfer in the 12-membered ring channels of MOR zeolite for the conversions involving bulky molecules. The facile method involves the combined use of tetraethylammonium hydroxide （TEAOH） and commercial surfactants, in which TEAOH is essential for the construction of nanocrystal assemblies. The surfactant serves as a crystal growth-inhibiting agent to further inhibit nanocrystalline particle growth, resulting in enhanced mesoporosity. The hierarchical MOR assembled particles, constructed of 20-50-nm crystallites, exhibit superior catalytic properties in the alkylation of benzene with benzyl alcohol compared with the control sample, as the hierarchical MOR possesses a larger external surface area and longer c-axis dimension. More importantly, the material shows improved activity and stability in the dimethyl ether carbonylation to methyl acetate reaction, which is a novel route to produce ethanol from syngas.

Effects of Different Preservative Treatments on Physiological Metabolism and Preservation of Sweet Cherry

[Objective] This study aimed to investigate the effects of different preservative treatments on physiological metabolism and preservation of sweet cherry. [Method] Sweet cherry （Prunus avium var. Summit） was soaked into benziothiazolinone （1 000 ppm）, lysozyme （500 ppm）, lysozyme （500 ppm） ＋ NPS polysaccharide （5 000 ppm） and water for 5 min, respectively. Non-treated sweet cherry was set as control. All the sweet cherries were then put into 3 mm thick PE bags and preserved at （-0.5±0.5） ℃. [Result] The results showed that the malate dehydrogenase （MDH） activity of benziothiazolinone treatment researched a significant peak on the 14 th d, while the MDH activity of Lysozyme （500 ppm）, Lysozyme （500 ppm） ＋ NPS polysaccharide （5 000 ppm） and water treatments began to increase on the 20 th d; the polyphenol oxidase （PPO） activity in various treatments showed a decreasing trend during the experiment, which researched a significant peak on the 14 th d, while that in water treatment was decreased consistently; on the 21 st d, the PPO activity in each treatment increased slowly; the titratable acid （TA） content in preservative treatments was higher than that in both water treatment and control; the soluble solid （SSC） content showed no significant difference between various treatments and between experimental treatment and control; on the 40 th d, the healthy fruit rate in preservative treatments was significantly higher than that in water treatment and control. [Conclusion] Benziothiazolinone, lysozyme and other preservatives show good effects on preservation of sweet cherry; lysozyme treatment can decrease the activity of malate dehydrogenase, maintain the relatively high content of organic acid and significantly improve the healthy fruit rate within a certain period of time.

Preparation of ZnO Nanoparticles and Photocatalytic H2 Production Activity from Different Sacrificial Reagent Solutions

ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized via a direct precipitation method followed by a hetero- geneous azeotropic distillation and calcination processes, and then characterized by X-ray power diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and ni- trogen adsorption-desorption measurement. The effects of Pt-loading amount, calcination temperature, and sacrificial reagents on the present ZnO suspension were investigated, photocatalytic H2 evolution efficiency from the The experimental results indicate that ZnO rianoparticles calcined at 400℃ exhibit the best photoactivity for the H2 production in comparison with the samples calcined at 300 and 500℃, and the photoeatalytie H2 production efficiency from a methanol solution is much higher than that from a triethanolamine solution. It can be ascribed to the oxidization of methanol also contributes to the H2 production during the photochemical reaction process. Moreover, the photocatalytic mechanism for the H2 production from the present ZnO suspension system containing methanol solution is also discussed in detail.

Cloning and Differential Gene Expression of Two Catalases in Suaeda salsa in Response to Salt Stress

Two different cDNA clones (Sscat1 and Sscat2) encoding catalase, the primary important H2O2-scavenging enzyme, were isolated from a AZap-cDNA library constructed from a 400 mmol/L NaCl-treated library of Suaeda salsa ( L.) Pall aerial tissue. Sscat1 (1.7 kb) contains a full open reading frame of 492 amino acids and Sscat2 (1.1 kb) is a partial clone. BLAST analysis indicates that the two clones share 71.9% identity in nucleotide sequence and 75% identity in deduced amino acid sequence within the last 287 amino acid residues of Sscat1. Southern blotting analysis showed that Sscat1 is multicopy in S. salsa genome, while Sscat2 is a single copy gene. Northern blotting analysis showed a rapid increase in the steady-level of both genes in roots after 48 It salt treatment, but only Sscat1 was induced in salinity treated leaves. Time-course analysis carried out in leaves confirmed that Sscat1 was induced by salt stress, in contrast to Sscat2. These implied that the expression of Sscat1 and Sscat2 genes are differentially regulated in S. salsa. The activity of total catalase is dramatically increased in response to salt stress.

Extracellular Enzyme Activity of Sclerotia-forming and Non-Sclerotia-forming Morchella Strains

The extracellular enzyme activities of sclerotia-forming and nonsclerotia- forming single spore strains of Morchella conica and M. crasspies were determined and compared. The non sclerotia-forming strains of M. conica exhibited higher aver- age activities of protease, catalase and xylanase but lower laccase activity than those of sclerotia-forming strains. However, the differences did not reach significance level. The soluble amylases activity of M. crasspies was significantly higher than that of M. conica, while the mean activity of other enzymes had differences between them, but the differences did not reach significance level.

Effects of Used Battery on Key Enzyme Activity during the Germination of Wheat Seeds

[Objective] This study aimed to explore the effects of used battery lixivium on wheat germination. [Method] The wheat seeds were treated with used battery lix- ivium at different concentrations to detect the change of activities of amylase, pro- tease, pyruvate dehydrogenase （PDH） and polyphenol oxidase （PPO） during the ger- mination period. [Result] The results showed that the used battery affected enzyme activity. With the increase of concentration of used battery lixivium, trends of the changes of amylase and protease activities were not different. The activities were en- hanced at low concentrations of lixivium, while were inhibited at high concentrations. The tends of changes of pyruvate dehydrogenase （PDH） and polyphenol oxidase （PPO） activities were not consistent with that of either amylase or protease, which showed continuous downward trends with the increasing concentration of used battery lixivium. [Conclusion] This study is of great practical significance for understanding the effects of used battery lixivium on the germination of wheat seeds.

Octahedral Cu_2O-modified TiO_2 nanotube arrays for efficient photocatalytic reduction of CO_2

A photocatalyst composed of TiO 2 nanotube arrays（TNTs） and octahedral Cu2 O nanoparticles was fabricated,and its performance in the photocatalytic reduction of CO2 under visible and simulated solar irradiation was studied. The average nanotube diameter and length was 100 nm and 5 μm,respectively. The different amount of octahedral Cu2 O modified TNTs were obtained by varying electrochemical deposition time. TNTs modified with an optimized amount of Cu2 O nanoparticles exhibited high efficiency in the photocatalysis,and the predominant hydrocarbon product was methane. The methane yield increased with increasing Cu2 O content of the catalyst up to a certain deposition time,and decreased with further increase in Cu2 O deposition time. Insufficient deposition time（5 min） resulted in a small amount of Cu2 O nanoparticles on the TNTs,leading to the disadvantage of harvesting light. However,excess deposition time（45 min） gave rise to entire TNT surface being most covered with Cu2 O nanoparticles with large sizes,inconvenient for the transport of photo-generated carriers. The highest methane yield under simulated solar and visible light irradiation was observed for the catalysts prepared at a Cu2 O deposition time of 15 and 30 min respectively. The morphology,crystallization,photoresponse and electrochemical properties of the catalyst were characterized to understand the mechanism of its high photocatalytic activity. The TNT structure provided abundant active sites for the adsorption of reactants,and promoted the transport of photogenerated carriers that improved charge separation. Modifying the TNTs with octahedral Cu2 O nanoparticles promoted light absorption,and prevented the hydrocarbon product from oxidation. These factors provided the Cu2O-modified TNT photocatalyst with high efficiency in the reduction of CO2,without requiring co-catalysts or sacrificial agents.

High activity of a Pt decorated Ni/C nanocatalyst for hydrogen oxidation

The Pt decorated Ni/C nanocatalysts were prepared for hydrogen oxidation reaction（HOR） in fuel cell.By regulating the contents of Pt and Ni in the catalyst,both the composition and the structure affected the electrochemical catalytic characteristics of the Pt-Ni/C catalysts.When the Pt mass content was 3.1% percent and that of Ni was 13.9% percent,the Pt-Ni/C-3 catalyst exhibited a larger electrochemically active surface area and a higher exchange current density toward HOR than those of pure supported platinum sample.Our study demonstrates a feasible approach for designing the more efficient catalysts with lower content of noble metal for HOR in fuel cell.

Efficient and stable Ru(Ⅲ)-choline chloride catalyst system with low Ru content for non-mercury acetylene hydrochlorination

Herein,we report an excellent,supported Ru(III)‐ChCl/AC catalyst with lower Ru content,where the ionic complex ChRuCl4 serves as the active component for acetylene hydrochlorination.The prepared heterogeneous Ru‐10%ChCl/AC catalyst shows excellent activity and long‐term stability.In this system,ChCl provides an environment for the ChRuCl4 to be stabilized as Ru(III),thus suppressing the reduction of the active species and the aggregation of ruthenium species during the reaction.The interaction between reactants and catalyst species was investigated by catalyst characterizations in combination with DFT calculations to disclose the effect of the ChRuCl4 complex and ChCl on the catalytic performance.This inexpensive,efficient,and long‐term catalyst is a competitive candidate for application in the hydrochlorination industry.

Copper-ceria solid solution with improved catalytic activity for hydrogenation of CO to CHOH

A copper-ceria solid solution and ceria-supported copper catalysts were prepared and used for the catalytic hydrogenation of CO2 to CH3OH.According to site-specific classification and quantitative analyses(X-ray diffraction,Raman spectroscopy,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,H2 temperature-programmed reduction,and CO adsorption),the interfaces of the prepared catalysts were classified as Cu incorporated into ceria(Cu-Ov-Cex),dispersed Cu O(D-Cu O-Ce O2),and bulk Cu O(B-Cu O-Ce O2)over the Ce O2 surface.These results,together with those of activity tests,showed that the Cu-Ov-Cex species was closely related to the CO2 hydrogenation activity and resulted in a much higher turnover frequency of CH3OH production than that observed with the D-Cu O-Ce O2 and B-Cu O-Ce O2 species.Thus,the copper-ceria solid solution exhibited improved activity due to the higher Cu-Ov-Cex fraction.

Effects of the Supports on Activity of Supported Nickel Catalysts for Hydrogenation of m-Dinitrobenzene to m-Phenylenediamine

The hydrogenation of m-dinitrobenzene to m-phenylenediamine in liquid phase was studied with the nickel catalysts supported on SiO2, TiO2, γ-Al2O3, MgO and diatomite carders. Based on the experiments of X-ray diffraction （XRD）, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS）, temperature-programmed reduction （TPR）, temperature-programmed desorption of hydrogen （H2-TPD） and activity evaluation, the physico-chemical and catalytic properties of the catalysts were investigated. Among the catalysts tested, the SiO2 supported nickel catalyst showed the highest activity and selectivity towards m-phenylenediamine, over which 97.3% m-dinitrobenzene conversion and 95.1% m-phenylenediamine yield were obtained at 373K under hydrogen pressure of 2.6MPa after reaction for 6 h when using ethanol as solvent. Although TiO2 and diatomite supported nickel catalysts also presented high activity, they had lower selectivity towards m-phenylenediamine. As for γ-Al2O3 and MgO supported catalysts were almost inactive for the object reaction. It was shown that both the activity and selectivity of the catalysts were strongly depended on the interaction between nickel and the support. The higher activities of Ni/SiO2, Ni/TiO2 and Ni/diatomite could be attributed to the weaker metal-support interaction, on which Ni species presented as crystallized Ni metal particles. On the other hand, there existed strong metal-support interaction in Ni/MgO and Ni γ-Al2O3, which causes these catalysts more difficult to be reduced and the availability of Ni active sites decreased, resulting in their low catalytic activity.

State-of-the-art catalysts for direct dehydrogenation of propane to propylene

With growing demand for propylene and increasing production of propane from shale gas,the technologies of propylene production,including direct dehydrogenation and oxidative dehydrogenation of propane,have drawn great attention in recent years.In particular,direct dehydrogenation of propane to propylene is regarded as one of the most promising methods of propylene production because it is an on-purpose technique that exclusively yields propylene instead of a mixture of products.In this critical review,we provide the current investigations on the heterogeneous catalysts(such as Pt,CrOx,VOx,GaOx-based catalysts,and nanocarbons)used in the direct dehydrogenation of propane to propylene.A detailed comparison and discussion of the active sites,catalytic mechanisms,influencing factors(such as the structures,dispersions,and reducibilities of the catalysts and promoters),and supports for different types of catalysts is presented.Furthermore,rational designs and preparation of high-performance catalysts for propane dehydrogenation are proposed and discussed.

Surface and Hydrogen Sorption Characteristics of Various Activated Carbons Developed from Rat Coal Mine （Zonguldak） and Anthracite

Activated carbon samples were developed from coal samples obtained from a coal mine, rat （Zonguldak, Turkey） and anthracite （Siberia, Russia）, applying pyrolysis in a temperature range of 600-900 ℃ under N2 flow, and activation using chemical agents such as KOH, NH4Cl, ZnCl2 at 650 ℃. Nitrogen adsorption at low temperature （77 K） was used to characterize the activated carbon samples, and their pore structure properties including pore volume, pore diameter and pore size distribution were determined by means of the t-plots and DFT methods. The surface area values were higher for rat coal samples than for anthracite one, and for the rat coal samples treated with KOH ＋ NH4Cl ＋ ZnCl2 at 650 °C [Rat650（2）] there are highest surface area and total pore volume, 315.6 m2·g^-1 and 0.156 ml·g^-1, respectively. The highest value of the hydrogen sorption capacity was found as 0.71% （by mass） for the rat coal sample obtained by KOH ＋ ZnCl2 treatment at 650 °C [Rat650（1）].

Preparation and electrochemical characterization of activated carbons by chemical-physical activation

A process was proposed based on the combination of chemical and physical activation for the production of activated carbons used as the electrode material for electric double layer capacitor (EDLC). By material characterization and electrochemical methods, the influences of the activitation process on the specific surface area, pore structure and electrochemical properties of the activated carbons were investigated. The results show that specific surface area, the mesopore volume, and the specific capacitance increase with the increase of the mass ratio of KOH to char (m(KOH)/m(char)) and the activation time, respectively. When m(KOH)/m(char) is 4.0, the specific surface area and the mesopore volume reach the maximum values, i.e. 1 960 m2/g and 0.308 4 cm3/g, and the specific capacitance is 120.7 F/g synchronously. Compared with the chemical activation, the activated carbons prepared by chemical-physical activation show a larger mesopore volume, a higher ratio of mesopore and a larger specific capacitance.
