Ruthenium-based catalysts Ru/TiO2, Ru/SiO2, Ru/γ-Al2O3, and Ru/ZrO2 were prepared and evaluated for CH3Br oxidation, and Ru/TiO2 showed the best catalytic performance. Product selectivity, thermal stability, and anti-moisture properties were also studied.

AbstractActivation of O2 is a critical step in heterogeneous catalytic oxidation. Here, the concept of increased electron donors induced by nitrogen vacancy is adopted to propose an efficient strategy to develop highly active and stable catalysts for molecular O2 activation. Carbon nitride with nitrogen vacancies is prepared to serve as a support as well as electron sink to construct a synergistic catalyst with Pt nanoparticles. Extensive characterizations combined with the first-principles calculations reveal that nitrogen vacancies with excess electrons could effectively stabilize metallic Pt nanoparticles by strong p-d coupling. The Pt atoms and the dangling carbon atoms surround the vacancy can synergistically donate electrons to the antibonding orbital of the adsorbed O2. This synergistic catalyst shows great enhancement of catalytic performance and durability in toluene oxidation. The introduction of electron-rich non-oxide substrate is an innovative strategy to develop active Pt-based oxidation catalysts, which could be conceivably extended to a variety of metal-based catalysts for catalytic oxidation.

Zn2+-Modified MgAl-LDH with ultra-low Pd cluster loading was synthesized. The higher adsorption energy and strong covalent metal–support interaction via forming Pd–Zn bonds over Pd/ZnMgAl-LDH account for the robust catalytic performance.

Tungsten carbide (WC) nanostructures were prepared by carbothermal reduction (CR) of tungsten-impregnated pinewood-derived activated carbon (AC) at 1000 °C under an inert atmosphere. Brunauer-Emmet-Teller (BET) surface area, pore structures of the AC, and catalyst samples were evaluated by N2 adsorption-desorption experiments. The structures of the catalysts were characterized using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). The morphologies and particle structures of the synthesized WC nanoparticles were investigated by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The WC/AC material was used as support of the platinum catalysts for catalytic oxidation of formaldehyde (HCHO) from interior sources. Pt-WC/AC catalysts with different platinum loadings were assessed for the catalytic oxidation of HCHO at low temperature. The catalytic performance was found to be significantly influenced by reaction temperature, initial formaldehyde concentration, relative humidity, and space velocity. The testing results demonstrated that HCHO can be totally oxidized by the 1 wt% Pt-WC/AC catalyst in the gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) = 50,000 h−1 at 30 °C with a relative humidity (RH) of 40%.

Pt/UiO-66 nanocomposites with platinum target concentration of 3 wt.% were prepared by 3 preparation methods, characterized and tested in the CO2 methanation process. Choice of the microporous UiO-66 metal-organic framework (Zr6O4(OH)4 with 1,4-benzene-dicarboxylate ligand) as catalytic support was motivated by the CO2 chemisorption capacity (proven by CO2-TPD profiles), large specific surface area (1477 m2/g) which favors a high dispersion of metal nanoparticles and good thermal stability. The preparation methods for the Pt/UiO-66 nanocomposites are: (1) wetimpregnation followed by reduction in H2 at 200 °C for 2 h; (2) wet-impregnation followed by reduction with an aqueous solution of NaBH4; and (3) “double-solvent” method, followed by reduction with NaBH4. The UiO-66 based nanocomposites were characterized by N2 adsorption–desorption (BET method), XRD, and SEM/TEM. The Pt/UiO-66 catalyst prepared by method 3 was chosen for catalytic testing due to its highest surface area, smallest platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) size, the localization of PtNPs both on the grain’s internal and external surface and best thermal stability in the desired temperature range. Its capacity to adsorb and activate CO2 and H2 was evaluated in thermo-programmed desorption experiments (H2-TPD and CO2-TPD). Hydrogen is molecularly adsorbed, while CO2 is adsorbed both molecularly and dissociatively. The catalytic performance in the CO2 methanation process was evaluated by Temperature Programmed Reactions (TPRea, 2 °C/min, 30–350 °C), at atmospheric pressure. The best results were obtained at 350 °C, CO2:H2 molar ratio of 1:5.2 and GHSV ═ 1650 h−1. In these conditions CO2 conversion is almost 50% and CH4 selectivity is 36%, the rest of the converted CO2 being transformed in CO.
