Thermodynamic analysis indicated that in presence of methane, the formation of Mo2C from MoO3 occurs through the path of MoO3 → MoO2→ Mo2C. The carburized MoO3 was characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), CHNS/O analysis, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis, and field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). At final carburization temperatures of 700 and 800℃ and at methane contents ranging from 5vol% to 20vol%, Mo2C was the only solid product observed in the XRD patterns. The re- suits indicated that the effect of methane content on the formation of the carbide phase is substantial compared with the effect of carburization time. Elemental analysis showed that at a final temperature of 700℃, the carbon content of carburized MoO3 is very close to the theoretical carbon mass percentage in Mo2C. At higher carburization temperatures, excess carbon was deposited onto the surface of Mo2C. High-surface-area Mo2C was obtained at extremely low heating rates; this high-surface-area material is a potential electrocatalyst.展开更多

Therefore, the TP-TR will be applied more widespreadly than ever before. With the technique of TP-TR and electric conductivity, the study is on the reaction mechanism and the adsorption behavior of the reactants and products to the present catalyst Mo-V-Nb/Al_2O_3 in the reaction from ethane through oxydehydrogenation to ethylene as the product. By Range-Kutta-Gill and Margarat methods, the kinetic parameters of the reaction elementary steps (i.e. rate constants, active energies and frequency factors) have been evaluated. The mathematical treatment coincides with the experimental results.展开更多

The morphological and structural characterization of these catalysts were carried out with X-ray diffraction, trans- mission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis and physical adsorption technique, and their redox properties were studied by temperature programmed reduction using both H2 and CO as probe molecules. Two cycles of oxidation/reduction were carried out in order to evaluate the effects of redox aging and gold sintering on the oxygen exchange capability. As observed with other noble metals, gold enhanced and promoted the ceria reduction at lower temperatures. Reduction by CO was shown to be dependent on the fine dispersion of gold and to be nega- tively affected by the ageing process more than reduction with hydrogen. This might have implications in reactions like water gas shift and CO-PROX which involve CO as a main reactant.展开更多

The phase composition and the reduction properties of Ce Zr O depend on the preparation method. A cubic Ce 0.5 Zr 0.5 O 2 solid solution can be obtained by using the sol gel method. The Ce Zr O solid solution prepared by using decomposition or coprecipiation was composed of cubic Ce 0.8 Zr 0.2 O 2 and tetragonal Ce 0.2 Zr 0.8 O 2 solid solution. The Ce Zr O solid solution prepared with different methods shows the different reduction properties owing to different phase composition. Results of differential thermal analysis and XRD show that Ce 0.5 Zr 0.5 O 2 solid solution is formed during the decomposition or combustion of the gel.展开更多

Natural ferruginous clays as well as an iron-poor clay chemically modified with Fe(III) salt (ferrihydrite species) were investigated as adsorbents of the arsenate(V) in water. The study, carried out from minerals from abundant Argentinean deposits, was conducted with the aid of different techniques such as X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM-EDS), Raman Spectroscopy, ICP-AES (Inductively Coupled Plasma) chemical analysis and Temperature Programmed Reduction (TPR). This last technique allowed to detect availability of iron species in oxidic environment with different structural complexity and to determine active sites, accessible for arsenate(V) adsorption. The effect was observed through temperature dependence of the first Fe(III) reduction step (below 570°C) of iron-oxide species. The sequence of reducibility: ferrihydrite > hydrous oxide (goethite) > anhydrous oxide (hematite) > structural iron in clay was in agreement with the availability of iron active sites for the reducing process as well as for the arsenate adsorption. The important role of very high iron content in original samples was also observed. The chemical activation of iron-poor clay by a simple and feasible modification with Fe(III) solutions promoted the deposition of the ferrihydrite active phase with an increase of 2.81% (expressed as Fe2O3) respect to the original content of 1.07%, constituting an accessible and eco-friendly technological alternative to solve the environmental problem of water containing arsenic.展开更多

The CHE Ig temperature characteristic is analyzed theoretically with the Lucky electron model, and a temperature self-adaptive programming algorithm is proposed to increase Ig according to the on-die temperature. Experimental results show that the program throughput increases significantly from 1.1 MByte/s without temperature self-adaptive programming to 1.4 MByte/s with the proposed method at room temperature. This represents a 30% improvement and is 70 times faster than the program throughput in Ref. [1].展开更多

It was found that the catalytic performance of the Bi0.02Co catalyst, which was prepared by coprecipitation method, can be effectively modified by potassium cations via impregnation. The optimized K0.01Bi0.02Co catalyst exhibited much higher activity compared with Bi0.02Co and K0.01Co for the reaction in feed gas 0.2% N2O/Ar, irrespective of the presence or absence of impurity gas(volume fraction) 5%02, 2%H20, 0.12%NO and 10%CO2. Characterization of the catalysts with H2 temperature programmed reduction(H2-TPR) and O2 temperature programmed desorption(O2-TPD) indicate that the Co--O bond in Bi0.02Co was weakened by the K+ doping, and hence the K0.01Bi0.02Co catalyst has much higher turnover frequency(TOF) than CO3O4 spinel and Bi0.02Co for the reaction.展开更多
