With the growing global propylene demand, propane dehydrogenation (PDH) has attracted great attention for on-purpose propylene production. However, its industrial application is limited because catalysts suffer from rapid deactivation due to coke deposition and metal catalyst sintering. To enhance metal catalyst dispersion and coke resistance, Pt-based catalysts have been widely investigated with various porous supports. In particular, zeolite can benefit from large surface area and acid sites, which favors high metal dispersion and promoting catalytic activity. In this work, we investigated the PDH catalytic properties of Beta zeolites as a support for Pt-Sn based catalysts. In comparison with Pt-Sn supported over θ-Al2O3 and amorphous silica (Q6), Beta zeolite-supported Pt-Sn catalysts exhibited a different reaction trend, achieving the best propylene selectivity after a proper period of reaction time. The different PDH catalytic behavior over Beta zeolite-supported Pt-Sn catalysts has been attributed to their physicochemical properties and reaction mechanism. Although Pt-Sn catalyst supported over Beta zeolite with low acidity showed low Pt dispersion, it formed a relatively lower amount of coke on PDH reaction and maintained a high surface area and active Pt surfaces, resulting in enhanced stability for PDH reaction. This work can provide a better understanding of zeolite-supported Pt-Sn catalysts to improve PDH catalytic activity with high selectivity and low coke formation.

Molecular sieves with beta zeolite topology are promising catalysts for various reactions as they exhibits extraordinary Lewis acidity. However, their industrial application and related research in academica is hindered because their synthesis is time consuming and typically involves toxic chemicals as hydrofluoric acid. Therefore, tetraethylammonium fluorid was tested as a non-toxic fluotide source for the synthesis of beta zeolites. In combination with the previously reported nano-seeded growth method, a fast synthesis of beta zeolites only involving non-toxic chemicals was possible. Synthesized zeolites show comparable selectivity in the Bayer-Villinger oxidation as conventional zeolites synthesized with hydrofluoric acid.<br>

CoPAN complex has been entrapped in the supercages of Y zeolite and the redox properties of this zeolite-encapsulated complex were investigated by cyclic voltammetry with a new method for the preparation of carbon toray-zeolite-modified electrode. Formation of the CoPAN complex was ascertained by surface analysis (SEM, XRD), chemical analysis (CA), spectroscopy methods (FTIR and UV/vis) and cyclic voltammetry in aqueous medium with zeolite-modified electrodes. The cyclic voltammetry studies obtained with a zeolite-modified electrode shows evidence for electroactivity restricted to boundary associated CoPAN complex.

A new electrochemical biosensor based on the immobilization of horseradish peroxidase(HRP) on TiO2 nanoneedles modified electrodes has been fabricated. The direct electrochemical response of HRP immobilized on the modified electrode was dramatically enhanced. The immobilized HRP displayed a couple of stable and well-defined redox peaks with a formal potential of -0.379 V (vs. SCE). The HRP/TiO2 nanoneedles modified electrode exhibited a remarkable electrocatalytic activity toward the oxidation of H2O2. The amperometric response to H2O2 showed a linear range of 4–700μmol/L, with the calculated detection limit of 0.78 μmol/L at a signal-to-noise ratio of three. The modified electrode displayed an acceptable reproducibility and good stability. The new HRP/TiO2 nanoneedles matrix is expected to have wide applications for enzymes and proteins immobilization and direct electron transfer study and opened a way for low conductivity electrode biosensors.

Zeolite beta, a large-pore zeolite, was investigated in this study with a view to examining it as a potential adsorbent for the removal of aniline from aqueous solutions. Two different metal-loaded zeolites were prepared by exchanging H-beta zeolite (SiO2/Al2O3 = 75:1) with copper. The influence of exchanged copper on the uptake level was assessed. The effect of varying the silica-to-alumina ratio of the H-beta zeolite on the aniline uptake level was also examined, using three different H-beta zeolites with ratios of 25:1, 75:1 and 150:1 as adsorbents. The sorption experiments indicated an uptake level of ca. 110–120 mg/g for each zeolite and this level was also adsorbed by the copper-modified H-beta zeolites (SiO2/Al2O3 = 75:1). In all cases, the adsorption process followed the Langmuir model for adsorption and the level of aniline adsorbed was largely unaffected by a change in temperature or the presence of extra framework copper. The stability of the exchanged copper on these zeolites was then examined by measuring the quantity of copper leached from each zeolite into solution as a function of pH. Minimum copper leaching was observed in the pH range 5–11. This provided a stable pH working range for the adsorbent materials.
