Methylation of toluene with methanol to synthesize p-Xylene was performed in a fixed-bed reactor. HZSM-5 zeolite as a catalyst was prepared by modification with La2O3. In addition, effect of steam treatment for La2O3-modified HZSM-5 on its catalytic performance was investigated as well. The properties of as-prepared catalysts were characterized by XRD, BET and NH3-TPD. The results indicate that modification with La2O3can narrow the size of HZSM-5 channel effectively. And more than 90% selectivity of p-Xylene is obtained over HZSM-5 with loading of 24% and 30% La2O3. However, above La2O3-modified HZSM-5 with high-selectivity exhibit a poor stability for time on-stream of the methylation reaction. Steam treatment of La2O3-modified HZSM-5 can improve its stability and shape selectivity, decreasing by-products. These effects can be attributed to distortion & narrowing of HZSM-5 channel and reduction of HZSM-5 strong Bronsted acid sites during steam treatment. As a result, the excellent catalytic performance is obtained over 24.0% La2O3-modified HZSM-5 by steam treatment at 773 K for 1.0 h, being 23% conversion of toluene, 93% selectivity of p-Xylene during time on-stream.

Uniform Ni/SiO2 magnetic hollow microspheres were prepared by an in situ thermal decomposition and reduction route. Tiny Au nanoparticles (5 nm) were linked to Ni/SiO2 microspheres. The as-prepared Ni/SiO2@Au catalysts exhibited excellent catalytic activity for 4-nitrophenol reduction.

Developing efficient catalysts with good recyclability is of great importance for its practical applications. In this study, a novel magnetically retrievable nanocomposite (Au-SiO2@Fe3O4-RGO) was synthesized for catalyzing hydration reaction. Active Au nanoparticles are deposited on core-shell SiO2@Fe3O4, which are further supported by a two-dimensional reduced graphene oxide (RGO) platform. The prepared Au-SiO2@Fe3O4-RGO was proven to be efficient as well as recyclable. An excellent catalytic performance, with 97% yield towards the hydration of phenylacetylene, was achieved for the catalyst in dioxane. Remarkably, the catalyst can be readily recycled through magnetic separation and achieved superior catalyst recovery and stability after seven cycles without any metal leaching. This work provides a strategy to fabricate recyclable and durable catalysts for industrial applications.

We proposed a hard-templated and electrostatic attraction induced deposition method to prepare a hollow core–shell Au@CeO2–ZrO2 nanocatalyst with a high surface area, in which a 6–8 nm ultrathin layer composed of CeO2–ZrO2 nanocrystals is embedded with individual Au nanoparticles, forming a sub-10 nm core–shell-like structure.

Abstract Recently, because of the increasing demand for natural gas and the reduction of greenhouse gases, interests have focused on producing synthetic natural gas (SNG), which is suggested as an important future energy carrier. Hydrogenation of CO2, the so-called methanation reaction, is a suitable technique for the fixation of CO2. Nickel supported on yttrium oxide and promoted with cobalt were prepared by the wet-impregnation method respectively and characterized using SBET, XRD, FTIR, XPS, TPR, and HRTEM/EDX. CO2 hydrogenation over the Ni/Y2O3 catalyst was examined and compared with Co–Ni/Y2O3 catalysts, Co% = 10 and 15 wt/wt. The catalytic test was conducted with the use of a fixed-bed reactor under atmospheric pressure. The catalytic performance temperature was 350 °C with a supply of H2:CO2 molar ratio of 4 and a total flow rate of 200 mL/min. The CH4 yield was reached 67%, and CO2 conversion extended 48.5% with CO traces over 10Co–Ni/Y2O3 catalyst. This encourages the direct methanation reaction mechanism. However, the reaction mechanism over Ni/Y2O3 catalyst shows different behaviors rather than that over bi-metal catalysts, whereas the steam reforming of methane reaction was arisen associated with methane consumption besides increase in H2 and CO formation; at the same temperature reaction.
