This work is devoted to the study of the influence of aluminum oxide content on the activity of cobalt catalysts in the reaction of selective hydrogenation of acetylene to ethylene. Cobalt catalysts modified with aluminum oxide having size between 50 to 500 nm were synthesized. Chemical contents and structure of carrier were investigated.  The catalytic activity of 5 % Со /clay and 5% Co/SiAl catalysts at acetylene hydrogenation was studied in the temperature range 100-180 , with a ratio of 1:2 of acetylene and hydrogen. The ethylene yield is 87.8 % in modifying the cobalt catalyst with aluminum oxide, whereas with the same process parameters, the ethylene yield is 72 %. 5 % Cobalt catalysts modified with 1.5 % aluminum oxides are more active in hydrogenation acetylene process than 5 % Со /clay 450 ℃ catalyst.

A direct reductive homo-coupling of alkyl tosylates has been developed by employing a combination of nickel and nucleophilic cobalt catalysts. A single-electron-transfer-type oxidative addition is a pivotal process in the well-established nickel-catalyzed coupling of alkyl halides. However, the method cannot be applied to the homo-coupling of ubiquitous alkyl tosylates due to the high-lying σ*(C–O) orbital of the tosylates. This paper describes a Ni/Co-catalyzed protocol for the activation of alkyl tosylates on the construction of alkyl dimers under mild conditions.

Abstract An investigation was done to develop and characterize the alumina supported cobalt catalyst for Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis to produce biodiesel from biomass with the aim to produce alumina-supported cobalt catalysts containing 7 to 19 wt.% cobalt content. By using incipient wetness impregnation of γ-Al2O3 supports with cobalt nitrate hexahydrate with ethanol and distilled water solutions; the 14 wt.% cobalt content in catalyst was achieved. Nitrogen adsorption-desorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), H2temperature programmed reduction (H2-TPR), temperature programmed desorption (TPD), temperature programmed oxidation (TPO) and carbon monoxide chemisorption were used for the characterization of the catalysts to attain an appropriate cobalt catalyst. In order to investigate the effect of the impregnation on the crystalline size, surface area and cobalt content, three different impregnation methods with various durations were investigated. In addition, increasing the impregnation duration increased the cobalt content and its dispersion. Based on results, positive effect of the alumina support and impregnation duration on the crystallite size, surface area, and pore diameter, reducibility of the catalyst and cobalt dispersion were investigated. Thus, cobalt catalyst for using in fixed bed reactor to produce biodiesel from biomass through Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis was prepared and characterized.

A comparison has been made of five methods for terminating the reaction of active nitrogen with ethylene in the temperature range 295° to 673° K. These were based on deactivating the active nitrogen by low-temperature trapping, by addition of nitric oxide, and by passing it over copper oxide or cobalt catalysts. With the nitric oxide and cobalt catalyst techniques, which appeared to be the most reliable of those used, an activation energy of 400 ± 200 cal/mole, with a P factor of about 10−5, have been determined for the reaction.
