The new challenge of partial oxidation of methane over Fe₂O₃/NaY and Fe₃O₄/NaY heterogeneous catalysts.

ABSTRACT: As one of the most important gases that abundantly contribute to air pollution, methane becomes the most leading gas that challenges researchers to utilize it in more functional products such as methanol. In this study, the conversion process involved iron oxide species supported by sodium Y (NaY-Z) zeolite as the catalysts. This work highlighted the preparation of Fe₂O₃ and Fe₃O₄ modified NaY zeolite to investigate their catalytic performance on partial oxidation of methane to methanol, with trace amount of oxygen (0.5% in N₂), in a batch reactor. The as-prepared catalysts were characterized using FTIR, XRD, SEM, and BET. The structure of NaY zeolite and its modified catalysts were confirmed. The pristine NaY-Z shows the highest activity followed by Fe₂O₃/NaY-3.52 (3.52 wt% of Fe loading) with high selectivity to formaldehyde (80%). Very high selectivity (∼100%) towards methanol was observed in the reactions on Fe₂O₃/NaY-1.70 and Fe₃O₄/NaY-2.55 catalysts, although the total amount of product was decreased. It was noticeable that Fe₃O₄/NaY-3.22 is an active catalyst and has good selectivity to methanol (70%).

Stable complete methane oxidation over palladium based zeolite catalysts.

Project description:Increasing the use of natural gas engines is an important step to reduce the carbon footprint of mobility and power generation sectors. To avoid emissions of unburnt methane and the associated severe greenhouse effect of lean-burn engines, the stability of methane oxidation catalysts against steam-induced sintering at low temperatures (<500?°C) needs to be improved. Here we demonstrate how the combination of catalyst development and improved process control yields a highly efficient solution for complete methane oxidation. We design a material based on palladium and hierarchical zeolite with fully sodium-exchanged acid sites, which improves the support stability and prevents steam-induced palladium sintering under reaction conditions by confining the metal within the zeolite. Repeated short reducing pulses enable the use of a highly active transient state of the catalyst, which in combination with its high stability provides excellent performance without deactivation for over 90?h in the presence of steam.

Methane Decomposition Over ZrO2-Supported Fe and Fe-Ni Catalysts-Effects of Doping La2O3 and WO3.

Project description:A leading method for hydrogen production that is free of carbon oxides is catalytic methane decomposition. In this research, Fe and Fe-Ni supported catalysts prepared by the wet impregnation method were used in methane decomposition. The effects of doping the parent support (ZrO2) with La2O3 and WO3 were studied. It was discovered that the support doped with La2O3 gave the best performance in terms of CH4 conversion, H2 yield, and stability at the test condition, 800°C and 4,000-ml h-1 g-1 cat. space velocity. The addition of Ni significantly improved the performance of all the monometallic catalysts. The catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), temperature-programmed reduction/oxidation (TPR/TPO), thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA), and microscopy (SEM and Raman) techniques. Phases of the different forms of Fe were identified by XRD. BET showed a drastic decline in the specific surface area of the catalysts with respect to the supports. TPR profiles revealed a progressive change in the valency of Fe in its combined form to the zero valence-free metal. The La2O3-promoted support gave the best performance and maintained good stability during the time on stream.

Methane Decomposition to Hydrogen Over Zirconia-Supported Fe Catalysts-Effects of the Modified Support.

Project description:Methane decomposition is a promising route to synthesize COx -free hydrogen and carbon nanomaterials (CNMs ). In this work, the impregnation method was employed for the preparation of the catalysts. Systematic investigations on the activity and stability of Fe-based catalysts were carried out in a packed-bed micro-activity reactor at 800 °C with a feed gas flow rate of 18 mL/min. The effect of doping Y2 O3 , MgO, SiO2 and TiO2 over ZrO2 on the catalytic performance was also studied. BET revealed that the specific surface areas and pore volumes are increased after SiO2 , TiO2 , and Y2 O3 are added to ZrO2 while MgO had a negative impact and hence a little decrease in specific surface area is observed. The catalytic activity results showed that the Fe-based catalyst supported over TiO2 -doped ZrO2 that is, Fe-TiZr, demonstrated the highest activity and stability, with a maximum methane conversion of 81.3 % during 180 min time-on-stream. At 800 °C, a maximum initial methane conversion of 73 %, 38 %, 64 %, and 69 % and a final carbon yield of 121 wt. %, 55 wt. %, 354 wt. %, and 174 wt. % was achieved using Fe-MgZr, Fe-SiZr, Fe-TiZr and Fe-YZr catalysts, respectively. Moreover, bulk deposition of uniform carbon nanotubes with a high degree of graphitization and different diameters was observed over the catalysts.

Structural Evolution of Bimetallic PtPd/CeO2 Methane Oxidation Catalysts Prepared by Dry Milling.

Project description:Bimetallic Pt-Pd catalysts supported on ceria have been prepared by mechanochemical synthesis and tested for lean methane oxidation in dry and wet atmosphere. Results show that the addition of platinum has a negative effect on transient light-off activity, but for Pd/Pt molar ratios between 1:1 and 8:1 an improvement during time-on-stream experiments in wet conditions is observed. The bimetallic samples undergo a complex restructuring during operation, starting from the alloying of Pt and Pd and resulting in the formation of unprecedented "mushroom-like" structures consisting of PdO bases with Pt heads as revealed by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) analysis. On milled samples, these structures are well-defined and observed at the interface between palladium and ceria, whereas those on the impregnated catalyst appear less ordered and are located randomly on the surface of ceria and of large PdPt clusters. The milled catalyst prepared by first milling Pd metal and ceria followed by the addition of Pt shows better performances compared to a conventional impregnated sample and also to a sample obtained by inverting the Pd-Pt milling order. This has been ascribed to the intimate contact between Pd and CeO2 generated at the nanoscale during the milling process.

Unraveling reaction networks behind the catalytic oxidation of methane with H2O2 over a mixed-metal MIL-53(Al,Fe) MOF catalyst.

Project description:Reaction paths underlying the catalytic oxidation of methane with H2O2 over an Fe containing MIL-53(Al) metal-organic framework were studied by periodic DFT calculations. Not only the activation of methane, but the full reaction network was considered, which includes the formation of the active site, the overoxidation of methane to CO2 and the decomposition of H2O2 to H2O and O2. Calculations indicate that the activation barrier for the initial activation of the Fe sites upon reaction with H2O2 is comparable to that of the subsequent C-H activation and also of the reaction steps involved in the undesirable overoxidation processes. The pronounced selectivity of the oxidation reaction over MIL-53(Al,Fe) towards the target mono-oxygenated CH3OH and CH3OOH products is attributed to the limited coordination freedom of the Fe species encapsulated in the extended octahedral [AlO6] structure-forming chains, which effectively prevents the direct overoxidation paths prior to product desorption from the active sites. Importantly, our computational analysis reveals that the active sites for the desired methane oxidation are able to much more efficiently promote the direct catalytic H2O2 decomposition reaction, rendering thus the current combination of the active site and the reactants undesirable for the prospective methane valorization process.

Hydrogen Production from Methanol Steam Reforming over Fe-Modified Cu/CeO2 Catalysts.

Project description:Fe-modified Cu catalysts with CeO2 support, prepared by the impregnation method, were subjected to physicochemical analysis and catalytic tests in the steam reforming of methanol (SRM). Physicochemical studies of the catalysts were carried out using the XRF, TEM, STEM-EDS, XRD, TPR and nitrogen adsorption/desorption methods. XRD, TEM studies and catalytic tests of the catalysts were carried out at two reduction temperatures, 260 °C and 400 °C, to determine the relationship between the form and oxidation state of the active phase of the catalysts and the catalytic properties of these systems in the SRM. Additionally, the catalysts after the reaction were analysed for the changes in the structure and morphology using TEM methods. The presented results show that the composition of the catalysts, morphology, structure, form and oxidation state of the Cu and Fe active metals in the catalysts and the reaction temperature significantly impact their activity, selectivity and stability in the SRM process. The gradual deactivation of the studied catalysts under SRM conditions could result from the forming of carbon deposits and/or the gradual oxidation of the copper and iron phases under the reaction conditions.

End-On Bound Iridium Dinuclear Heterogeneous Catalysts on WO3 for Solar Water Oxidation.

Project description:Heterogeneous catalysts with atomically defined active centers hold great promise for high-performance applications. Among them, catalysts featuring active moieties with more than one metal atom are important for chemical reactions that require synergistic effects but are rarer than single atom catalysts (SACs). The difficulty in synthesizing such catalysts has been a key challenge. Recent progress in preparing dinuclear heterogeneous catalysts (DHCs) from homogeneous molecular precursors has provided an effective route to address this challenge. Nevertheless, only side-on bound DHCs, where both metal atoms are affixed to the supporting substrate, have been reported. The competing end-on binding mode, where only one metal atom is attached to the substrate and the other metal atom is dangling, has been missing. Here, we report the first observation that end-on binding is indeed possible for Ir DHCs supported on WO3. Unambiguous evidence supporting the binding mode was obtained by in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy and high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy. Density functional theory calculations provide additional support for the binding mode, as well as insights into how end-on bound DHCs may be beneficial for solar water oxidation reactions. The results have important implications for future studies of highly effective heterogeneous catalysts for complex chemical reactions.

Dry reforming of methane over single-atom Rh/Al2O3 catalysts prepared by exsolution.

Project description:Single-atom catalysts often show exceptionally high performance per metal loading. However, the isolated atom sites tend to agglomerate during preparation and/or high-temperature reaction. Here we show that in the case of Rh/Al2O3 this deactivation can be prevented by dissolution/exsolution of metal atoms into/from the support. We design and synthesise a series of single-atom catalysts, characterise them and study the impact of exsolution in the dry reforming of methane at 700-900 °C. The catalysts' performance increases with increasing reaction time, as the rhodium atoms migrate from the subsurface to the surface. Although the oxidation state of rhodium changes from Rh(iii) to Rh(ii) or Rh(0) during catalysis, atom migration is the main factor affecting catalyst performance. The implications of these results for preparing real-life catalysts are discussed.

Mechanistic Complexity of Methane Oxidation with H2O2 by Single-Site Fe/ZSM-5 Catalyst.

Project description:Periodic density functional theory (DFT) calculations were carried out to investigate the mechanism of methane oxidation with H2O2 over the defined Fe sites in Fe/ZSM-5 zeolite. The initial Fe site is modeled as a [(H2O)2-Fe(III)-(?O)2-Fe(III)-(H2O)2]2+ extraframework cluster deposited in the zeolite pore and charge-compensated by two anionic lattice sites. The activation of this cluster with H2O2 gives rise to the formation of a variety of Fe(III)-oxo and Fe(IV)-oxo complexes potentially reactive toward methane dissociation. These sites are all able to promote the first C-H bond cleavage in methane by following three possible reaction mechanisms: namely, (a) heterolytic and (b) homolytic methane dissociation as well as (c) Fenton-type reaction involving free OH radicals as the catalytic species. The C-H activation step is followed by formation of MeOH and MeOOH and regeneration of the active site. The Fenton-type path is found to proceed with the lowest activation barrier. Although the barriers for the alternative heterolytic and homolytic pathways are found to be somewhat higher, they are still quite favorable and are expected to be feasible under reaction conditions, resulting ultimately in MeOH and MeOOH products. H2O2 oxidant competes with CH4 substrate for the same sites. Since the oxidation of H2O2 to O2 and two [H+] is energetically more favorable than the C-H oxofunctionalization, the overall efficiency of the latter target process remains low.

5-Hydroxymethyl-2-Furfural Oxidation Over Au/CexZr1-xO2 Catalysts.

Project description:A series of gold catalysts supported on pure CeO2, ZrO2, and two different Ce-Zr mixed oxides have been prepared and tested in the 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furfural oxidation reaction. All catalysts show high catalytic activity (100% conversion) and important selectivity (27-41%) to the desired product i.e., 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid at low base concentration. Products selectivity changes with the support nature as expected, however, the observed trend cannot be related neither to gold particle size, nor to catalyst reducibility and oxygen mobility. An important relation between the FDCA selectivity and the support textural properties is observed, conducing to the general requirement for optimal pore size for this reaction.
