Low-temperature catalytic oxidative coupling of methane in an electric field over a Ce-W-O catalyst system.

ABSTRACT: We examined oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) over various Ce-W-O catalysts at 423 K in an electric field. Ce2(WO4)3/CeO2 catalyst showed high OCM activity. In a periodic operation test over Ce2(WO4)3/CeO2 catalyst, C2 selectivity exceeded 60% during three redox cycles. However, Ce2(WO4)3/CeO2 catalyst without the electric field showed low activity, even at 1073 K: CH4 Conv., 6.0%; C2 Sel., 2.1%. A synergetic effect between the Ce2(WO4)3 structure and electric field created the reactive oxygen species for selective oxidation of methane. Results of XAFS, in-situ Raman and periodic operation tests demonstrated that OCM occurred as the lattice oxygen in Ce2(WO4)3 (short W-O bonds in distorted WO4 unit) was consumed. The consumed oxygen was reproduced by a redox mechanism in the electric field.

Electric Field and Mobile Oxygen Promote Low-Temperature Oxidative Coupling of Methane over La1-x Ca x AlO3-δ Perovskite Catalysts.

Project description:Oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) over La1-x M x AlO3-δ (M = Ca, Sr, Ba; x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3) in an electric field at low temperature (423 K) was investigated. Among the tested catalysts, the La0.7Ca0.3AlO3-δ catalyst showed the highest performance in terms of C2H6 + C2H4 yield (11.1%). Surface mobile oxygen species (O2 2- or O-), which were considered as active oxygen species for the OCM reaction, increased with increasing Ca doping amount, and thereby the La0.7Ca0.3AlO3-δ catalyst showed the best catalytic activity.

Constructing catalyst knowledge networks from catalyst big data in oxidative coupling of methane for designing catalysts.

Project description:Designing high performance catalysts for the oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) reaction is often hindered by inconsistent catalyst data, which often leads to difficulties in extracting information such as combinatorial effects of elements upon catalyst performance as well as difficulties in reaching yields beyond a particular threshold. In order to investigate C2 yields more systematically, high throughput experiments are conducted in an effort to mass-produce catalyst-related data in a way that provides more consistency and structure. Graph theory is applied in order to visualize underlying trends in the transformation of high-throughput data into networks, which are then used to design new catalysts that potentially result in high C2 yields during the OCM reaction. Transforming high-throughput data in this manner has resulted in a representation of catalyst data that is more intuitive to use and also has resulted in the successful design of a myriad of catalysts that elicit high C2 yields, several of which resulted in yields greater than those originally reported in the high-throughput data. Thus, transforming high-throughput catalytic data into catalyst design-friendly maps provides a new method of catalyst design that is more efficient and has a higher likelihood of resulting in high performance catalysts.

Effect of ethane and ethylene on catalytic non oxidative coupling of methane.

Project description:The effect of addition of ethane and ethylene (C2) on methane coupling at 1000 °C was investigated. A Fe/SiO2 catalyst was used to determine the contributions of catalytic as well as C2 initiated methane activation. The catalyst load as well as the residence times at 1000 °C downstream of the catalyst bed were varied. C2 addition significantly increases methane conversion rates, similarly for both ethane and ethylene, although ethylene is more effective when operating with long residence times in the post-catalytic volume. Methane activation via C2 addition proceeds dominantly in the gas-phase whereas catalytic C2 activation is negligible. The catalyst has no effect on methane conversion when the feed contains more than 2 vol% C2. Product selectivity distribution as well as total hydrocarbon yield at 10% conversion is not influenced by C2 addition, but is influenced by the amount of catalyst as well as residence time in the post-catalytic volume at high temperature. It is proposed that C2 impurities in natural gas change from a nuisance to an advantage by enhancing methane conversion and simplifying purification of the natural gas feed. A process is proposed in which ethylene is recycled back into the reactor to initiate methane coupling, leading to a process converting methane to aromatics.

Effects of metal cation doping in CeO2 support on catalytic methane steam reforming at low temperature in an electric field.

Project description:Catalytic methane steam reforming was conducted at low temperature using a Pd catalyst supported on Ce1-x M x O2 (x = 0 or 0.1, M = Ca, Ba, La, Y or Al) oxides with or without an electric field (EF). The effects of the catalyst support on catalytic activity and surface proton hopping were investigated. Results show that Pd/Al-CeO2 (Pd/Ce0.9Al0.1O2) showed higher activity than Pd/CeO2 with EF, although their activity was identical without EF. Thermogravimetry revealed a larger amount of H2O adsorbed onto Pd/Al-CeO2 than onto Pd/CeO2, so Al doping to CeO2 contributes to greater H2O adsorption. Furthermore, electrochemical conduction measurements of Pd/Al-CeO2 revealed a larger contribution of surface proton hopping than that for Pd/CeO2. This promotes the surface proton conductivity and catalytic activity during EF application.

CO2 oxidative coupling of methane using an earth-abundant CaO-based catalyst.

Project description:CO2 oxidative coupling of methane has been achieved by using CO2 as the oxidant. We explored various catalysts with the capability of producing C2,3 hydrocarbons and found that the use of a CaO-based oxide with sodium (Na) and chloride (Cl) allowed for remarkable direct methane conversion with a C2,3 yield of 6.6% at 950 °C. Microstructural characterisations showed that the optimal sample contained sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) covered with fine calcium oxide particles with chloride doping. Interestingly, sodium carbonate acted as a molten salt catalyst in this scenario. The synthesised active components are earth-abundant and can increase the possibility of achieving higher yields of hydrocarbons.

Mechanistic and microkinetic study of non-oxidative methane coupling on a single-atom iron catalyst

Project description:Non-oxidative methane coupling has promising economic potential, but the catalytic and radical reactions become complicated at high temperatures. Here, we investigate the mechanism of non-oxidative methane coupling on an iron single-atom catalyst using density functional theory, and evaluate the catalytic performance under various reaction conditions using microkinetic modelling and experiments. Under typical reaction conditions (1300 K and 1 bar), C–C coupling and subsequent dehydrogenation to produce ethylene shows comparable energetics between the gas-phase and catalytic pathways. However, the microkinetic analysis reveals that the iron single-atom catalyst converted methane to mainly CH3 and H2 at reaction temperatures above 1300 K, and acetylene production is dominant over ethylene production. The sensitivity analysis suggests that increasing the C2 hydrocarbon yield by optimising the reaction conditions is limited. The experimental results obtained at 1293 K are consistent with the theoretical estimation that acetylene is the main C2 product over the iron single-atom catalyst. The catalytic mechanism in non-oxidative methane coupling becomes complicated at high temperatures, making informed catalyst design challenging. Here, microkinetic modelling and experiments on a single-atom iron catalyst show how optimizing the reaction conditions can increase the C2 hydrocarbon yield.

Metalloenzyme-Inspired Ce-MOF Catalyst for Oxidative Halogenation Reactions.

Project description:The structure of UiO-66(Ce) is formed by CeO2-x defective nanoclusters connected by terephthalate ligands. The initial presence of accessible Ce3+ sites in the as-synthesized UiO-66(Ce) has been determined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR)-CO analyses. Moreover, linear scan voltammetric measurements reveal a reversible Ce4+/Ce3+ interconversion within the UiO-66(Ce) material, while nanocrystalline ceria shows an irreversible voltammetric response. This suggests that terephthalic acid ligands facilitate charge transfer between subnanometric metallic nodes, explaining the higher oxidase-like activity of UiO-66(Ce) compared to nanoceria for the mild oxidation of organic dyes under aerobic conditions. Based on these results, we propose the use of Ce-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as efficient catalysts for the halogenation of activated arenes, as 1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene (TMB), using oxygen as a green oxidant. Kinetic studies demonstrate that UiO-66(Ce) is at least three times more active than nanoceria under the same reaction conditions. In addition, the UiO-66(Ce) catalyst shows an excellent stability and can be reused after proper washing treatments. Finally, a general mechanism for the oxidative halogenation reaction is proposed when using Ce-MOF as a catalyst, which mimics the mechanistic pathway described for metalloenzymes. The superb control in the generation of subnanometric CeO2-x defective clusters connected by adequate organic ligands in MOFs offers exciting opportunities in the design of Ce-based redox catalysts.

Catalytic Oxidation of Methane into Methanol over Copper-Exchanged Zeolites with Oxygen at Low Temperature.

Project description:The direct catalytic conversion of methane to liquid oxygenated compounds, such as methanol or dimethyl ether, at low temperature using molecular oxygen is a grand challenge in C-H activation that has never been met with synthetic, heterogeneous catalysts. We report the first demonstration of direct, catalytic oxidation of methane into methanol with molecular oxygen over copper-exchanged zeolites at low reaction temperatures (483-498 K). Reaction kinetics studies show sustained catalytic activity and high selectivity for a variety of commercially available zeolite topologies under mild conditions (e.g., 483 K and atmospheric pressure). Transient and steady state measurements with isotopically labeled molecules confirm catalytic turnover. The catalytic rates and apparent activation energies are affected by the zeolite topology, with caged-based zeolites (e.g., Cu-SSZ-13) showing the highest rates. Although the reaction rates are low, the discovery of catalytic sites in copper-exchanged zeolites will accelerate the development of strategies to directly oxidize methane into methanol under mild conditions.

Tracking of Active Sites as Well as the Compositing Effect over a Cu/Ce-Based Catalyst with Superior Catalytic Activity.

Project description:The replacement of a noble metal catalyst by base metals presents a great challenge for low-temperature CO and volatile organic compounds oxidation. Cu/Ce-based catalysts are expected to achieve this goal with excellent performance, among which the main active sites still need to be further explored. For this reason, CuCe catalysts were further compounded with typical elements (cobalt, Co) to study the main active sites and compositing effect by in-situ enhanced Raman and in-situ ultralow-temperature DRIFTS technologies. The main active site for both CuCe and CuCoCe catalysts was the same Cu-OV-Ce at the copper-cerium interface, named as asymmetric oxygen vacancy (ASOv). The dispersion of CuO and CeO2 species was promoted, and the formation energy of ASOv was decreased significantly from 1.502 to 0.854 eV after the addition of Co, which leads to an increase in the ASOv concentration. A small cobalt added can form more Co2+ species, improving the activity and stability. The activity of Cu1Co0.5Ce3 catalyst was significantly improved with 100% conversion of CO and toluene at 96 and 227 °C. Here, the ASOv was studied in relative quantification, showing consistency of catalytic activity and ASOv concentration. Meanwhile, the dynamic exchange of ASOv in the reactions was tracked, indicating that the redox equilibrium of ASOv can continuously produce new ASOV in Cu/Ce-based catalysts that cause long-term catalytic stability. In addition, it is almost difficult for CoCe and CoCu samples to form the ASOv, and the interaction between metals and metals was also weaker than that of CuCe and CuCoCe catalysts.

Computational Insight into Methane-Methanol Coupling and Aromatization over Metal-Modified ZSM-5: From Mechanism to Catalyst Screening.

Project description:ZSM-5 zeolite modified by molybdenum is one of the promising catalysts for methane dehydroaromatization (MDA). The introduction of methanol to couple with methane over metal-modified ZSM-5 can facilitate the MDA reaction, but the reaction mechanism, optimal energy pathways, and kinetic and selectivity controlling factors remain to be clarified. In this study, periodic density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed to investigate the mechanism of methane-methanol coupling and aromatization over Mo/ZSM-5. The calculation results showed that the process of methane-methanol coupling to light olefins (mainly ethylene and propylene) was determined by the C-C coupling step, while further aromatization of the ethylene and propylene intermediate was kinetically controlled by the dehydrogenation step involved in the regeneration of the Brønsted acid site over Mo/ZSM-5. The co-adsorption of H2O produced from methanol dehydration had little effect on methane-methanol coupling to ethylene but increased the rate-limiting barrier for ethylene aromatization to benzene. To further improve the catalytic performance of Mo/ZSM-5, we found that introducing a second metal component such as Co, Ni, or Nb into Mo/ZSM-5 could promote the C-C coupling process and enable these bimetallic combinations to be promising candidates for methane-methanol coupling reactions.
