The industrial importance of metal catalysts supported on reducible oxides has stimulated considerable interest during the last few years. This presentation reports on the study of the physicochemical properties of metallic rhodium supported on vanadium pentoxide (Rh/V2O5). Electron optical methods, in conjunction with other techniques, were used to characterise the catalyst before its use in the hydrogenolysis of butane; a reaction for which Rh metal is known to be among the most active catalysts.V2O5 powder was prepared by thermal decomposition of high purity ammonium metavanadate in air at 400 °C for 2 hours. Previous studies of the microstructure of this compound, by HREM, SEM and gas adsorption, showed it to be non— porous with a very low surface area of 6m2/g3. The metal loading of the catalyst used was lwt%Rh on V2Q5. It was prepared by wet impregnating the support with an aqueous solution of RhCI3.3H2O.

The kinetics of the reaction of solid sodium carbonate with sulfur dioxide depends on the microstructure of the solid, which in turn is affected by the way and conditions of its preparation. The active form, analogous to that obtained by thermal decomposition of NaHCO3, emerges from the dehydration of Na2CO3 . 10 H2O in a vacuum or its weathering in air at room temperature. The two active forms are porous and have approximately the same specific surface area. Partial hydration of the active Na2CO3 in air at room temperature followed by thermal dehydration does not bring about a significant decrease in reactivity. On the other hand, if the preparation of anhydrous Na2CO3 involves, partly or completely, the liquid phase, the reactivity of the product is substantially lower.

Al2o3 Catalyst

In this paper, the features of obtaining a Co-Mo/Al2O3 catalyst to synthesize carbon nanotubes (CNTs) by thermal decomposition were studied. It was revealed that the duration of the pre-catalyst thermal decomposition stage in the process of developing a metal oxide system has a significant impact on its activity in the synthesis of carbon nanostructured materials by chemical vapor deposition (CVD). It was proved that an effective catalyst for CNTs synthesis can be obtained by through thermal decomposition of the pre – catalyst, without calcination of the metal oxide system. The use of the Co-Mo/Al2O3 catalyst, synthesized in such a way, in the CVD process makes it possible to reduce the cost of synthesized CNTs. Using scanning electron microscopy, it was shown that the size of the grains, and specific surface area of the formed Co-Mo/Al2O3 catalyst depend on the thermal treatment conditions of the pre-catalyst. Under the conditions for the implementation of the pre-catalyst thermal decomposition stage (temperature, volume, duration, etc.), it is possible to contro not only the characteristics of the resulting catalyst (specific surface area, efficiency), but also the characteristics of the CNTs (diameter, degree of defectiveness). In the course of experiments, the optimal modes of implementation of the method for obtaining the Co-Mo/Al2O3 catalyst allowed forming a system with a specific surface area of ~ 108 m2/g. The use of the resulting catalyst in the synthesis of nanostructured materials provides a high specific yield of multi-walled CNTs with a diameter of 8-20 nm and a degree of defectiveness of 0.97.

Percentage Conversion

Transesterification method was carried out in biodiesel production from cooking oil (CO). Calcium oxide (CaO) was selected as the best catalyst. This study investigated the effects of percentage conversion of oil to biodiesel from methanol to oil molar ratio and catalyst amount. Brunauer, Emmett and Teller (BET) test method was used to analyze the surface area. The results obtained showed that using 200°C calcined CaO catalyst, 76.67 % biodiesel was successfully converted from oil. This indicates that the cooking oil (CO) has potential to become a future source of biodiesel. 0.5 w/w% catalyst dosages, 3:5 oil to methanol molar ratio and 65°C reaction temperature are the best condition for the biodiesel conversion from oil. This study also shows that conversion of cooking oil is significantly affected by methanol to oil molar ratio and catalyst amount.
