Selective hydrogenolysis of biomass-derived furfuryl alcohol into 1,2- and 1,5-pentanediol over highly dispersed Cu-Al_2O_3 catalysts

Cu nanoparticles supported on a variety of oxide supports, including SiO2, TiO2, ZrO2, Al2O3, MgO and ZnO, were investigated for the hydrogenolysis of biomass‐derived furfuryl alcohol to1,2‐pentanediol and 1,5‐pentanediol. A Cu‐Al2O3 catalyst with 10 wt% Cu loading prepared by a co‐precipitation method exhibited the best performance in terms of producing pentanediols compared with the other materials. This catalyst generated an 85.8% conversion and a 70.3% combined selectivity for the target pentanediols at 413 K and 8 MPa H2 over an 8‐h reaction. The catalyst could also be recycled over repeated reaction trials without any significant decrease in productivity. Characterizations with X‐ray diffraction, NH3/CO2‐temperature programmed desorption, N2 adsorption,transmission electron microscopy and N2 O chemisorption demonstrated that intimate and effective interactions between Cu particles and the acidic Al2O3 support in this material greatly enhanced its activity and selectivity. The promotion of the hydrogenolysis reaction was found to be especially sensitive to the Cu particle size, and the catalyst with Cu particles 1.9 to 2.4 nm in size showed the highest turnover frequency during the synthesis of pentanediols.

Oxidative coupling of alcohols and amines to an imine over Mg-Al acid-base bifunctional oxide catalysts

A series of Mg‐Al mixed oxide catalysts are prepared and introduced as efficient irreducible catalysts for the oxidative coupling of alcohols and amines to imine.The structure and surface properties of Mg‐Al oxides are modulated by changing the Mg/Al ratios,calcination temperature and treatment with probe molecules.Detailed characterization,including X‐ray diffraction,27Al magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy,N2‐adsorption,NH3‐temperature‐programmed desorption,CO2‐temperature‐programmed desorption and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy are carried out to determine the physicochemical properties of these catalysts.The Mg‐Al oxides with Mg/Al=3exhibit the highest activity in the reaction,which possess a large number of surface weak basic sites and a relatively small number of weak acidic sites.The role of the acidic and basic sites in the reaction process is systematically investigated,and are shown to serve as adsorption and activation sites for amines and alcohols,respectively.Under the synergistic effect of these acid‐base centers,the oxidative coupling process successfully occurs on the surface of Mg‐Al mixed oxides.Compared with the acidic sites,the weak basic sites play a more important role in the catalytic process.The acidic sites are the catalytic centers for the benzyl alcohol activation,which control the reaction rate of the oxidative coupling reaction.

Glycerol hydrogenolysis to n‐propanol over Zr‐Al composite oxide‐supported Pt catalysts

Zr‐Al mixed oxide supported Pt catalysts with different Zr/Al mole ratios（2.5%Pt/ZrxAl（1–x）Oy） were synthesized by an impregnation method and used for the selective hydrogenolysis of glycerol to n‐propanol in an autoclave reactor. The catalysts were fully characterized by X‐ray powder diffrac‐tion, Brunauer‐Emmett‐Teller surface area analysis, CO chemisorption, H2 temperature‐ pro‐grammed reduction, pyridine‐infrared spectroscopy, and NH3‐temperature‐programmed desorp‐tion. The results revealed that the Zr/Al ratio on the support significantly affected the size of the platinum particles and the properties of the acid sites on the catalysts. The catalytic performance was well correlated with the acidic properties of the catalyst; specifically, more acid sites contrib‐uted to the conversion and strong acid sites with a specific intensity contributed to the deep dehy‐dration of glycerol to form n‐propanol. Among the tested catalysts, 2.5 wt% Pt/Zr（0.7）Al（0.3）Oy exhibited excellent selectivity for n‐propanol with 81.2% glycerol conversion at 240 °C and 6.0 MPa H2 pres‐sure when 10% aqueous glycerol solution was used as the substrate. In addition, the effect of vari‐ous reaction parameters, such as H2 content, reaction temperature, reaction time, and number of experimental cycles were studied to determine the optimized reaction conditions and to evaluate the stability of the catalyst.

Zn–Ca–Al mixed oxide as efficient catalyst for synthesis of propylene carbonate from urea and 1,2-propylene glycol

A series of Zn–Ca–Al oxides with different CaO and ZnO contents have been prepared and evaluated in the synthesis of propylene carbonate(PC) from 1,2-propylene glycol(PG) and urea in a batch reactor. The effect of catalyst composition, basicity and reaction process parameters such as temperature, catalyst dose, molar ratio of PG to urea, purge gas flow and reaction time has been studied to find suitable reaction conditions for the PC synthesis. The PC selectivity and yield under the desired conditions could reach 98.4% and 90.8%, respectively. The best performing catalyst also exhibited a good reusability without appreciable loss in the PC selectivity and yield after five consecutive reaction runs. In addition, a stepwise reaction pathway involving a 2-hydroxypropyl carbamate intermediate was proposed for the urea alcoholysis to PC in the presence of Zn–Ca–Al catalysts, according to the time dependences of reaction intermediates and products.

Effects of PVA and PEG on pH Dependent Shear Yield Stress of Concentrated Alumina Suspensions

The pH dependence of the extrapolated shear yield stress for Alcoa A16 a-Al2O3 suspensions at the powder volume fraction of 0.27 with and without addition of both polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) each at fixed 0.18% of the powder mass was studied. With the polymer added, the full deflocculation of the suspension shifts from about pH=4 to around pH=1.5, at which the minimum value of shear yield stress is higher than that at pH=4. The addition of both PVA and PEG was found to prevent the filter cake from cracking.

An integrated approach to the key parameters in methanol‐to‐olefins reaction catalyzed by MFI/MEL zeolite materials

Identification of the catalyst characteristics correlating with the key performance parameters including selectivity and stability is key to the rational catalyst design. Herein we focused on the identification of property-performance relationships in the methanol-to-olefin(MTO) process by studying in detail the catalytic behaviour of MFI, MEL and their respective intergrowth zeolites. The detailed material characterization reveals that both the high production of propylene and butylenes and the large Me OH conversion capacity correlate with the enrichment of lattice Al sites in the channels of the pentasil structure as identified by 27 Al MAS NMR and 3-methylpentane cracking results. The lack of correlation between MTO performance and other catalyst characteristics, such as crystal size, presence of external Brønsted acid sites and Al pairing suggests their less pronounced role in defining the propylene selectivity. Our analysis reveals that catalyst deactivation is rather complex and is strongly affected by the enrichment of lattice Al in the intersections, the overall Al-content, and crystal size. The intergrowth of MFI and MEL phases accelerates the catalyst deactivation rate.

Effect of Polyethylene Glycol on the Properties of γ-Al_2O_3 Formation by Polyaluminum Chloride

A polyaluminium chloride solution with high Al 13 content self-prepared was used as material for preparing the spherical γ-Al 2 O 3 by the sol-gel and oil-drop method. Polyethylene glycol with different molecular mass was used as surfactant to investigate the effect on property of γ-Al 2 O 3 . The physical property was characterized by 27 Al NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) spectra, X-ray diffraction, FT-IR (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy) and TG-DTA (thermogravimetric-differential thermal analysis). The results showed that surface area, pore volume and pore size of γ-Al 2 O 3 all increased with the increase of polyethylene glycol molecular mass in the experimental research range, and polyethylene glycol 10000 was the most suitable pore forming additive. γ-Al 2 O 3 with surface area of 339 m 2 ·g 1 , pore volume of 0.59 cm 3 ·g 1 and pore diameter of 6.9 nm were obtained at 450 °C.
