When methane interacted with 1.0wt%Rh/SiO2 catalyst, it was dissociated to adsorbed hydrogen and CHx species. The adsorbed hydrogen atoms were transferred to SiO2 surface by "spill-over" and reacted with lattice oxygen to form surface -OH species. POM mechanism was investigated over Rh/SiO2 catalyst using in-situ FT-IR. It was found that CO2 was formed before CO could be detected when CH4 and O2 were introduced over the preoxidized Rh/SiO2 catalyst, whereas CO was detected before CO2 was formed over the prereduced Rh/SiO2 catalyst.展开更多

Four processest CO dissociation, coupling of CO and H to produce CHO.insertion of CO to M-CH3; insertion of CH2 to M-CH3 have been calculated. We compared the degree of CO bond activation and the banters of the foregoing processes for these four catalysts, it can be shown that Ni/SiO2 is a methanation catalyst, Ru/SiO2 and Rh/SiO2 can produce C2-oxygenated compound (acetaldehyde), especially Rh/SiO2 is a good catalyst for producing it, and Pd/SiO2 is a methanol Synthesis catalyst.展开更多

The effects of operating parameters on oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) over Na-W-Mn/SiO2 catalyst have been studied at elevated pressures of 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 MPa under low gaseous hourly space velocity (GHSV) ...The effects of operating parameters on oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) over Na-W-Mn/SiO2 catalyst have been studied at elevated pressures of 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 MPa under low gaseous hourly space velocity (GHSV) and low temperature conditions. Experimental results show that when the operating pressure is increased, C2+ yield slightly decreases, while the maximum ratio of ethylene to ethane remains unchanged. Moreover, it has been found empirically that increase of pressure does not affect the catalyst behavior permanently, the catalyst recovers its original low pressure performance without hysteresis behavior by reducing the pressure. Under the investigated conditions, when oxygen is completely consumed, the increase of GHSV leads to improvement in C2 selectivity, while C3+ and COx selectivities decrease slightly. The C2+ selectivity increases by increase of nitrogen diluent in the feed, but the C3+ hydrocarbons selectivities decrease with increase of nitrogen since it is possible that further dilution at high pressure may reduce the probability of collision between CH3 and C2+ hydrocarbons. During the stability test at high pressure, the catalyst performance remains unchanged throughout the 20 h running. The fresh and used catalysts were characterized using XRD, SEM and N2 adsorption-desorption methods. It was found that the phase transformation of the support from α-cristobalite to tridymite and quartz does not have obvious effect on catalyst performance at high pressure.展开更多

Catalytic hydrogenation of dimethyl oxalate (DMO) over copper-silver catalyst supported on silica was studied. The Cu-Ag/SiO2 catalyst supported on silica sol was prepared by homogeneous deposition-precipitation of the mixture of aqueous euprammonia complex and silica sol. The proper active temperature of Cu-Ag/SiO2 catalyst for hydrogenation of DMO was 523-623 K. The most preferable reaction conditions for methyl glycolate (MG) were optimized: temperature at 468-478 K, 40-60 mesh catalyst diameter, H2/DMO ratio 40, and 1.0 h^-1 of LHSV.展开更多
