摘要: This study presents a detailed analysis of the catalytic de-oxygenation of the liquid and gaseous pyrolytic products of two biomasses (beech wood and flax shives) using different catalysts (commercial HZSM-5 and H-Y, and lab-synthesised Fe-HZSM-5, Fe-H-Y, Pt/Al2O3 and CoMo/Al2O3). The experiments were all conducted in a semi-batch reactor under the same operating conditions for all feed materials. BET specific surface area, BJH pore size distribution and FT-IR technologies have been used to characterise the catalysts, while gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), flame ionisation detection (GC-FID) and thermal conductivity detection (GC-TCD) were used to examine the liquid and gaseous pyrolytic products. It was firstly seen that at higher catalyst-to-biomass ratios of 4:1, de-oxygenation efficiency did not experience any further significant improvement. Fe-HZSM-5 was deemed to be the most efficient of the catalysts utilised as it helped reach the lowest oxygen contents in the bio-oils samples and the second best was HZSM-5. It was also found that HZSM-5 and H-Y tended to privilege the decarbonylation route (production of CO), whilst their iron-modified counterparts favoured the decarboxylation one (production of CO2) for both biomasses studied. It was then seen that the major bio-oil components (carboxylic acids) underwent almost complete conversion under catalytic treatment to produce mostly unoxygenated aromatic compounds, phenols and gases like CO and CO2. Finally, phenols were seen to be the family most significantly formed from the actions of all catalysts.
摘要: The spent residue hydrotreating catalysts were taken out from the different HDM bed axial position of a fixed-bed residue hydrotreating reactor of Petro-China. The coke on spent catalysts were studied by the technologies such as EA, TG, XPS, FT-IR and 13C NMR to get the structure characteristics and parameters. The results showed that the coke on spent residue hydrotreating catalysts located on different beds positions share some characteristics such as the kind of coke, the functional group, but the structure and composition were different from each other. Based on the result of each characterization technique, chemical structure models of coke were established. In order to ensure the accuracy of the structures, a software called gNMR helped to calculate the chemical shifts and predict the NMR spectra of the structure models. The model structures can be corrected to match the experimental results through comparing experimental spectra and the predicted ones.
摘要: Dry reforming of methane (DRM) with CO2 is of great significance in the environmental protection and the utilization of natural gas. SiO2 and Al2O3 are two typical catalyst supports used in DRM. To elucidate the effect of these two supports on the catalytic performance, in this work, Ni/SiO2 and Ni/Al2O3 catalysts are prepared by the incipient wetness method and characterized by BET, TEM, H2-TPR, XRD, TG and Raman technologies. The results indicate that the performance of Ni-based catalyst is closely related to the properties of support and the Ni/SiO2 and Ni/Al2O3 catalysts are rather different in their DRM performance. Ni/SiO2 catalyst exhibits higher initial activity but poor stability; its catalytic activity decreases rapidly in 15 h for DRM at 800℃. Because of the weak metal-support interaction, Ni species on the Ni/SiO2 catalyst is present as large Ni particles, which may promote the formation of coke precursors, viz., the multi-carbon Cn species, leading to the fast carbonaceous deposition and catalyst deactivation. In contrast, the Ni/Al2O3 catalyst displays a lower activity but a much higher stability; its activity in DRM keeps stable in 50 h. Although Ni particles in the Ni/Al2O3 catalyst is much smaller, the strong metal-support interaction promotes the formation of NiAlxOy species during the catalyst preparation process, which may lead to a decrease in the content of active Ni species and give the Ni/Al2O3 catalyst a relatively low catalytic activity in DRM; however, the strong metal-support interaction between Ni and Al2O3 is also of benefit to the formation and stabilization of small Ni particles, which can alleviate the carbanceous deposition and afford the Ni/Al2O3 catalyst a better stability.
