Emission of hazardous trace elements, especially arsenic from fossil fuel combustion, have become a major concern. Under an oxidizing atmosphere, most of the arsenic converts to gaseous As2O3. CaO has been proven effective in capturing As2O3. In this study, the mechanisms of As2O3 adsorption on CaO surface under O2 atmosphere were investigated by density functional theory (DFT) calculation. Stable physisorption and chemisorption structures and related reaction paths are determined; arsenite (AsO33−) is proven to be the form of adsorption products. Under the O2 atmosphere, the adsorption product is arsenate (AsO43−), while tricalcium orthoarsenate (Ca3As2O8) and dicalcium pyroarsenate (Ca2As2O7) are formed according to different adsorption structures.

The dehydrogenation of 1,2-cyclohexanediol (CHD) helps in the effective utilization of not only fossil derivatives but also vicinal diols and polyols from sustainable biomass-derived resources. A thermodynamic analysis of CHD dehydrogenation was computed with density functional theory (DFT) calculation using Gaussian 09. The result indicates that CHD can be converted to 2-hydroxy cyclohexanone (HCO), 2-hydroxy-2-cyclohexen-1-one (HCEO) and pyrocatechol depending on the degree of dehydrogenation. HCO and HCEO are the stable products of the primary and secondary dehydrogenation. Experimentally, Cu/MgO catalysts were prepared using glucose as a reductant, and were characterized by SEM, TEM, XRD, XPS, TPR, BET and ICP. Furthermore, their catalytic performance regarding the oxygen-free dehydrogenation of CHD was investigated. The results indicate that the primary active crystalline phase of Cu/MgO was Cu2+1O, and that the dehydrogenation products were mainly HCO and HCEO, in accordance with thermodynamic predictions. Upon optimizing the reaction conditions, the total selectivity of HCO and HCEO exceeded 90% and the conversion of CHD was approximately 95%.
