Catalytic depolymerization of a typical lignite for improving tar yield by Co and Zn catalyst.

ABSTRACT: A novel process for improving tar yield through catalytic depolymerization of a typical lignite was put forward. The catalytic depolymerization of the lignite over CoCl₂ and ZnCl₂ catalyst in different concentrations were investigated by a Gray-King apparatus. The optimal catalyst concentrations of CoCl₂ and ZnCl₂ catalyst that could obtain the highest tar yield was achieved, by which the tar yield increased about 20.3% and 6.6% compared with that of the raw coal, respectively. Different with the traditional catalytic pyrolysis process for which the tar yield decreased, more tar was produced by the catalytic depolymerization method. The GC × GC-MS analysis showed that the components of alkanes and two-ring aromatics in tar increased dramatically with the addition of the optimal CoCl₂ and ZnCl₂ catalyst. The Raman measurement revealed that more large aromatic ring systems ( > 6 rings) were formed in the char from depolymerization with catalyst and the elemental analysis showed that the hydrogen content decreased slightly. The gas products analysis reflected the contents of methane showed an obvious decrease. All of this reflects that more fragments and small free radicals cracked were enhanced by catalysis in the catalytic depolymerization process, thereby leading to an enhancement of the tar formation possibilities.

Reusability Investigation of a Ruthenium Catalyst during Ruthenium Ion-Catalyzed Oxidative Depolymerization of Lignite for the Production of Valuable Organic Acids.

Project description:A clean and efficient conversion process is essential for the utilization of low-rank coals. Lignite, a typical representative of the low-rank coal family, has huge potential for the production of valuable chemicals via the oxidative depolymerization reaction. Ruthenium ion-catalyzed oxidation (RICO) is an effective route for lignite depolymerization under mild conditions, but the high cost of precious Ru limits the potential large-scale application of RICO. How to recycle and reuse Ru is critical to promote the application of RICO. In this work, a novel and efficient approach for reusing Ru through recycling the solvent mixture containing Ru was established for RICO. First, the influence of different reaction parameters on the depolymerization degree of lignite and benzene polycarboxylic acid (BPCA) yields was investigated. Second, the distribution of Ru in the organic phase (OP), aqueous phase (AP), and residual solid phase (RSP) was analyzed after the RICO reaction. Finally, based on the distribution of Ru in different phases, a novel route of recycling Ru by reusing the Ru-containing solvents was proposed. The results showed that the dosage of RuCl3 and NaIO4 had a significant influence on both the depolymerization degree of lignite and BPCA yields. The distribution of Ru had a close relationship with the depolymerization degree of lignite and the dosage of NaIO4. After the depolymerization reaction, the CCl4 phase containing Ru was reused directly as the solvent for the next run, which could fulfill the reuse of both CCl4 and Ru. The results proved that the Ru-containing CCl4 phase could maintain catalytic performance for 5 runs. This work provides an efficient route to reuse Ru for the RICO depolymerization of lignite into valuable organic acids. As far as we know, this is the first report concerning the recycling and reuse of Ru during the RICO of lignite. This work is important for the application of RICO in lignite depolymerization.

Study on the NO removal efficiency of the lignite pyrolysis coke catalyst by selective catalytic oxidation method.

Project description:Selective catalytic oxidation (SCO) method is commonly used in wet denitration technology; NO after the catalytic oxidation can be removed with SO2 together by wet method. Among the SCO denitration catalysts, pyrolysis coke is favored by the advantages of low cost and high catalytic activity. In this paper, SCO method combined with pyrolysis coke catalyst was used to remove NO from flue gas. The effects of different SCO operating conditions and different pyrolysis coke catalyst made under different process conditions were studied. Besides, the specific surface area of the catalyst and functional groups were analyzed with surface area analyzer and Beohm titration. The results are: (1) The optimum operating conditions of SCO is as follows: the reaction temperature is 150°C and the oxygen content is 6%. (2) The optimum pyrolysis coke catalyst preparation processes are as follows: the pyrolysis final temperature is 750°C, and the heating rate is 44°C / min. (3) The characterization analysis can be obtained: In the denitration reaction, the basic functional groups and the phenolic hydroxyl groups of the catalyst play a major role while the specific surface area not.

Preparation of Mn/Zn@PG Catalyst for Catalytic Oxidation Treatment of Coal Chemical Wastewater

Project description:In this study, Mn/Zn@palygorskite (PG) catalysts with developed pores and good salt tolerance were prepared and applied to the treatment of coal chemical wastewater. A doping ratio of metal elements, calcination temperature, and calcination time was used to optimize the preparation conditions and determine the optimal preparation conditions of the Mn/Zn@PG catalysts. The catalysts, obtained under various preparation conditions, were characterized and analyzed by XRD, SEM, EDS, BET, XRF, XPS, and other techniques. Results showed that the Zn and Mn elements in the Mn/Zn@PG catalyst existed as ZnO and MnO2, respectively. The optimal working conditions of the Mn/Zn@PG catalyst for catalytic oxidation treatment of coal chemical wastewater, obtained through the optimization of working conditions, are the following: reaction time 60 min, wastewater pH = 9.28, ozone ventilation rate 0.2 L/min, catalyst filling ratio 20%. The height-to-diameter ratio of the tower was 6:1. The abrasion resistance and catalytic performance of the Mn/Zn@PG catalyst after repeated use were investigated, and the mechanism of the loss of active components of the Mn/Zn@PG catalyst was explored. The coal chemical wastewater, before and after treatment, was analyzed by UV–vis spectroscopy and 3D fluorescence spectroscopy. The hierarchical–principal component comprehensive evaluation system (AHP–PCA) was established to evaluate the catalytic ozonation process of coal chemical wastewater, so that the overall evaluation of the process performance can be achieved.

Zn Modification of Pd/TiO<sub>2</sub>/Ti Catalyst for CO Oxidation.

Project description:The main goal of this study was to modify the activity of Pd/TiO2/Ti catalyst in the reaction of CO oxidation by the addition of Zn. Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) of Ti wire was conducted to produce a uniform porous layer of TiO2. A mixture of Pd and Zn was then introduced by means of adsorption. After reduction treatment, the activity of the samples was examined by oxidation of 5% CO in a temperature range from 80-350 °C. Model catalysts with sufficient amounts of the metals for physico-chemical investigation were prepared to further investigate the reaction between Pd and Zn during CO oxidation. The structures and compositions of the samples were investigated using scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS), inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Modification of Pd/TiO2/Ti catalyst by Zn with a Pd:Zn atomic ratio of 2:1 decreased the temperature of complete CO oxidation from 220 °C for Pd/TiO2/Ti to 180 °C for Pd-Zn/TiO2/Ti. The temperature of 50% CO conversion on Pd-Zn(2:1)/TiO2/Ti was around 55 °C lower than in the reaction on monometallic Pd catalyst. The addition of Zn to the Pd catalyst lowered the binding energy of CO on the surface and improved the dissociative adsorption of oxygen, facilitating the oxidation of CO. FTIR showed that the bridging form of adsorbed CO is preferred on bimetallic systems. Analysis of the surface compositions of the samples (SEM-EDS, TOF-SIMS) showed higher amounts of oxygen on the bimetallic systems.

Insight into the Ex Situ Catalytic Pyrolysis of Biomass over Char Supported Metals Catalyst: Syngas Production and Tar Decomposition.

Project description:Ex situ catalytic pyrolysis of biomass using char-supported nanoparticles metals (Fe and Ni) catalyst for syngas production and tar decomposition was investigated. The characterizations of fresh Fe-Ni/char catalysts were determined by TGA, SEM-EDS, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), and XPS. The results indicated that nanoparticles metal substances (Fe and Ni) successfully impregnated into the char support and increased the thermal stability of Fe-Ni/char. Fe-Ni/char catalyst exhibited relatively superior catalytic performance, where the syngas yield and the molar ratio of H2/CO were 0.91 Nm3/kg biomass and 1.64, respectively. Moreover, the lowest tar yield (43.21 g/kg biomass) and the highest tar catalytic conversion efficiency (84.97 wt.%) were also obtained under the condition of Ni/char. Ultimate analysis and GC-MS were employed to analyze the characterization of tar, and the results indicated that the percentage of aromatic hydrocarbons appreciably increased with the significantly decrease in oxygenated compounds and nitrogenous compounds, especially in Fe-Ni/char catalyst, when compared with no catalyst pyrolysis. After catalytic pyrolysis, XPS was employed to investigate the surface valence states of the characteristic elements in the catalysts. The results indicated that the metallic oxides (MexOy) were reduced to metallic Me0 as active sites for tar catalytic pyrolysis. The main reactions pathway involved during ex situ catalytic pyrolysis of biomass based on char-supported catalyst was proposed. These findings indicate that char has the potential to be used as an efficient and low-cost catalyst toward biomass pyrolysis for syngas production and tar decomposition.

Cleavage of aryl-ether bonds in lignin model compounds using a Co-Zn-beta catalyst.

Project description:Efficient cleavage of aryl-ether linkages is a key strategy for generating aromatic chemicals and fuels from lignin. Currently, a popular method to depolymerize native/technical lignin employs a combination of Lewis acid and hydrogenation metal. However, a clear mechanistic understanding of the process is lacking. Thus, a more thorough understanding of the mechanism of lignin depolymerization in this system is essential. Herein, we propose a detailed mechanistic study conducted with lignin model compounds (LMC) via a synergistic Co-Zn/Off-Al H-beta catalyst that mirrors the hydrogenolysis process of lignin. The results suggest that the main reaction paths for the phenolic dimers exhibiting α-O-4 and β-O-4 ether linkages are the cleavage of aryl-ether linkages. Particularly, the conversion was readily completed using a Co-Zn/Off-Al H-beta catalyst, but 40% of α-O-4 was converted and β-O-4 did not react in the absence of a catalyst under the same conditions. In addition, it was found that the presence of hydroxyl groups on the side chain, commonly found in native lignin, greatly promotes the cleavage of aryl-ether linkages activated by Zn Lewis acid, which was attributed to the adsorption between Zn and the hydroxyl group. Followed by the cobalt catalyzed hydrogenation reaction, the phenolic dimers are degraded into monomers that maintain aromaticity.

Reductive Catalytic Depolymerization of Semi-industrial Wood-Based Lignin.

Project description:The current work studies the reductive catalytic depolymerization (RCD) of lignin from a novel semi-industrial process. The aim was to obtain aromatic mono-, di-, tri-, and tetramers for further valorization. The substrate and products were characterized by multiple analytical methods, including high pressure size-exclusion chromatography (HPSEC), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, GC-flame ionization detector (FID), GC-FID/thermal conductivity detector (TCD), and NMR. The RCD was studied by exploring the influence of different parameters, such as lignin solubility, reaction time, hydrogen pressure, reaction temperature, pH, type and loading of the catalyst, as well as type and composition of the organic/aqueous solvent. The results show that an elevated temperature, a redox catalyst, and a hydrogen atmosphere are essential for the depolymerization and stability of the products, while the reaction medium also plays an important role. The highest obtained mono- to tetramers yield was 98% and mono- to dimers yield over 85% in the liquid phase products. The reaction mechanisms influenced the structure of the aliphatic chain in the monomers, but left the phenolic structure along with the methoxy groups largely unaltered. The current work contributes to the development and debottlenecking of the novel and sustainable overall process, which utilizes efficiently all the fractions of wood, in line with the principles of green engineering and chemistry.

Improving coriander yield and quality with a beneficial bacterium

Project description:Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are soil microbes that can promote plant growth and/or increase plant resistance to one or multiple stress conditions. These natural resources are environmentally friendly tools for reducing the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides and for improving the nutritional quality of plants, including pharmacological metabolites. Coriander (Coriandrum sativumL.), commonly known as cilantro or Chinese parsley, is a worldwide culinary and medicinal plant with both nutritional and medicinal properties. Little is known about how PGPR may promote plant growth or affect metabolite profiles in coriander. Here, by usingAeromonassp. H1 that is a PGPR strain, we investigate how coriander yield and quality could be affected by PGPR with transcriptome insights.

Catalytic Chain Transfer Copolymerization of Propylene Oxide and CO<sub>2</sub> using Zinc Glutarate Catalyst.

Project description:Oligo and poly(propylene ether carbonate)-polyols with molecular weights from 0.8 to over 50 kg/mol and with 60-92 mol % carbonate linkages were synthesized by chain transfer copolymerization of carbon dioxide (CO2) and propylene oxide (PO) mediated by zinc glutarate. Online-monitoring of the polymerization revealed that the CTA controlled copolymerization has an induction time which is resulting from reversible catalyst deactivation by the CTA. Latter is neutralized after the first monomer additions. The outcome of the chain transfer reaction is a function of the carbonate content, i. e. CO2 pressure, most likely on account of differences in mobility (diffusion) of the various polymers. Melt viscosities of poly(ether carbonate)diols with a carbonate content between 60 and 92 mol % are reported as function of the molecular weight, showing that the mobility is higher when the ether content is higher. The procedure of PO/CO2 catalytic chain copolymerization allows tailoring the glass temperature and viscosity.
