Kinetics of isomerisation of cyclohexene to methylcyclopentene proceeding as parallel reaction to hydrogenation of cyclohexene to cyclohexane on cobalt-molybdenum catalysts of different composition has been measured. The surface acidity of these catalysts was estimated from the difference in the adsorption of toluene and heptane which was measured by chromatographic method. In a series of catalysts containing molybdenum the acidity parallels isomerisation activity. Cobalt on alumina catalysts and alumina itself have greater acidity but exhibit lower isomerisation activity compared to the catalysts containing molybdenum.

Trichloroethylene (TCE) removal was investigated in a post-plasma catalysis (PPC) configuration in nearly dry air (RH = 0.7%) and moist air (RH = 15%), using, for non-thermal plasma (NTP), a 10-pin-to-plate negative DC corona discharge and, for PPC, Ce0.01Mn as a catalyst, calcined at 400 °C (Ce0.01Mn-400) or treated with nitric acid (Ce0.01Mn-AT). One of the key points was to take advantage of the ozone emitted from NTP as a potential source of active oxygen species for further oxidation, at a very low temperature (100 °C), of untreated TCE and of potential gaseous hazardous by-products from the NTP. The plasma-assisted Ce0.01Mn-AT catalyst presented the best CO2 yield in dry air, with minimization of the formation of gaseous chlorinated by-products. This result was attributed to the high level of oxygen vacancies with a higher amount of Mn3+, improved specific surface area and strong surface acidity. These features also allow the promotion of ozone decomposition efficiency. Both catalysts exhibited good stability towards chlorine. Ce0.01Mn-AT tested in moist air (RH = 15%) showed good stability as a function of time, indicating good water tolerance also.

Ferrierites and their delaminated forms (ITQ-6), containing aluminum or titanium in the zeolite framework, were synthetized and modified with copper by an ion-exchange method. The obtained samples were characterized with respect to their chemical composition (ICP-OES), structure (XRD, UV-Vis DRS), textural parameters (N2-sorption), surface acidity (NH3-TPD), form and reducibility of deposited copper species (UV-Vis DRS and H2-TPR). Ferrierites and delaminated ITQ-6 zeolites modified with copper were studied as catalysts for the selective catalytic oxidation of ammonia to dinitrogen (NH3-SCO). It was shown that aggregated copper oxide species, which were preferentially formed on Ti-zeolites, were catalytically active in direct low-temperature ammonia oxidation to NO, while copper introduced into Al-zeolites was present mainly in the form of monomeric copper cations catalytically active in selective reduction of NO by ammonia to dinitrogen. It was postulated that ammonia oxidation in the presence of the studied catalysts proceeds according to the internal-selective catalytic reduction mechanism (i-SCR) and therefore the suitable ratio between aggregated copper oxide species and monomeric copper cations is necessary to obtain active and selective catalysts for the NH3-SCO process. Cu/Al-ITQ-6 presented the best catalytic properties possibly due to the most optimal ratio of these copper species.

Co3(PO4)2, AlPO4 and the binary system Co3(PO4)2-AlPO4 with different compositions were prepared by the coprecipitation method. The structural properties of these samples were determined using XRD, DTA and FT-IR techniques. The textural properties were determined from the adsorption of nitrogen at 77 K. The surface acidity was measured by a calorimetric titration method. The samples were tested as catalysts in the dehydration of ethanol and isopropanol using a pulse microcatalytic technique. The data obtained from XRD and FT-IR indicate the amorphous structures of the prepared catalysts. An increase in Co3(PO4)2 content led to a decrease in the surface area and in the total pore volume and an increase in the mean pore radius. The surface acidity of the catalyst depends on the chemical composition; the surface acidity increased with an increase in the AlPO4 content. The dehydration temperature and the distribution of acid sites are important parameters in determining the selectivity and activity of the catalyst.

Abstract Titanium dioxide supports, which were prepared by roasting metatitanic acid under different conditions, were used to prepare a series of Ce–W–Ti catalysts. The structure and denitration properties of the catalyst were studied. The results showed that TiO2 had different crystal types (mixed crystal phases with different proportions of anatase and rutile) under different roasting conditions, and the denitration efficiency of mixed crystal was better than that of pure phase TiO2. Ce–W/200 °C-1 hTiO2 catalyst exhibited a prominent NO conversion rate, and it can reach higher than 90% at a temperature range from 250 to 500°C. The large specific surface area, low content of rutile TiO2 in the support, high content of chemical adsorbed oxygen and high surface acidity were favorable to denitration performance of Ce–W–Ti catalyst.

In this work, to introduce polar functional groups on carbon surfaces, activated carbon fibers (ACFs) were treated by nitric acid in order to enhance the adsorption capacity of propylamine which was one of toxic gases in cigarette smoke. It was found that the polar functional groups were predominantly increased up to 2.0 M of nitric acid, resulting in the increase of total surface acidity. It was found that the adsorption amount of propylamine of the modified ACFs was increased around 17% after a nitric acid treatment. From the XPS results, it was observed that propylamine was reacted with strong or weak polar (acidic) groups, such as COOH, -COO or OH existed on the ACF surfaces.
