Selective catalytic reduction of NO with methane (NO-CH4-SCR) in the presence of excess oxygen was investigated over the synthesized MnH-ZZs-n zeolite composite catalysts with FAU (as core) and BEA (as shell) topologies. XRD, SEM, and NH3-TPD technologies were employed to characterize the catalysts. It is found that the topological structure of the zeolite affected the catalytic properties and H2O/SO2 tolerances considerably. MnH-ZZs-n catalysts exhibited much higher NO-CH4-SCR activity than the physical mixture catalysts with comparable relative mass content of Y and Beta zeolites, particularly the ratio of Y and Beta at the range of 0.2–0.5 than the MnH-Beta catalysts with single topology. NH3-TPD results showed that one new type of strong acidic sites formed in H-ZZs-n and remained in MnH-ZZs-n resulted from the interaction between the Lewis and Brönsted acid sites under a particular environment. The special zeolite-zeolite structure with ion-exchanged Mn ions in the core-shell zeolite composite catalysts contributed to the novel NO-CH4-SCR properties.

To improve the catalytic performance of zeolite catalysts in reactions involving bulky molecules, a series of mesoporous Beta zeolite were prepared using organic functionalized fumed silica as the silicon source, which were thoroughly characterized in terms of porosity and acidity. The peaks in X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns showed broadening, and the external surface area and mesoporosity increased progressively when the content of organic functionalization increased. An infrared (IR) spectroscopy study of adsorbed probe molecules, including pyridine (Py-IR), 2,6-ditertbutylpyridine (DTBPy-IR) and pivalonitrile (Pn-IR), showed that the improvement of mesoporosity increased the accessibility of acidic sites. In the catalytic benzylation of naphthalene with benzyl chloride (BC) over the mesoporous Beta zeolite catalysts, the conversion of BC was significantly increased when the accessibility of Brönsted acid sites improved. The increase of mesoporosity not only improved the diffusion ability of the reactants and products, but also increased the accessibility of acid sites, which greatly enhanced the activity of the mesoporous Beta zeolite catalysts. It is highlighted that the interdependence of mesoporosity, acid type, acid concentration, and strength of the mesoporous Beta zeolites on the catalytic performance in the benzylation of naphthalene with BC was comprehensively studied.

Background: 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) is one of the pollutants in sewage and harmful to human health and the environment. Cu is a non-noble metal with catalytic reduction effect on nitro compounds, and.has the advantages of simple preparation, abundant reserves, and low price. Carbon nanotubes (CNT) are widely used for substrate due to their excellent mechanical stability and high surface area. In this study, a simple method to prepare CNT-Cu2O by controlling different reaction time was reported. The prepared nanocomposites were used to catalyze 4-NP. Methods: CNTs and CuCl2 solution were put into a beaker, and then ascorbic acid and NaOH were added while continuously stirring. The reaction was carried out for a sufficiently long period of time at 60°C. The prepared samples were dried in a vacuum at 50°C for 48 h after washing with ethyl alcohol and deionized water. Results: Nanostructures of these composites were characterized by scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscopy techniques, and the results at a magnification of 200 nanometers showed that Cu2O was distributed on the surface of the CNTs. In addition, X-ray diffraction was performed to further confirm the formation of Cu2O nanoparticles. The results of ultraviolet spectrophotometry showed that the catalytic effect of the compound on 4-NP was obvious. Conclusions: CNTs acted as a huge template for loading Cu2O nanoparticles, which could improve the stability and cycle performance of Cu2O. The formation of nanoparticles was greatly affected by temperature and the appropriate concentration, showing great reducibility for the 4-NP reduction reaction.

Niobium containing SBA-15 was prepared by two methods: impregnation with different amounts of ammonium niobate(V) oxalate (Nb-15/SBA-15 and Nb-25/SBA-15 containing 15 wt.% and 25 wt.% of Nb, respectively) and mixing of mesoporous silica with Nb2O5 followed by heating at 500 °C (Nb2O5/SBA-15). The use of these two procedures allowed obtaining materials with different textural/surface properties determined by N2 adsorption/desorption isotherms, XRD, UV-Vis, pyridine, and NO adsorption combined with FTIR spectroscopy. Nb2O5/SBA-15 contained exclusively crystalline Nb2O5 on the SBA-15 surface, whereas the materials prepared by impregnation had both metal oxide and niobium incorporated into the silica matrix. The niobium species localized in silica framework generated Brønsted (BAS) and Lewis (LAS) acid sites. The inclusion of niobium into SBA-15 skeleton was crucial for the achievement of high catalytic performance. The strongest BAS were on Nb-25/SBA-15, whereas the highest concentration of BAS and LAS was on Nb-15/SBA-15 surface. Nb2O5/SBA-15 material possessed only weak LAS and BAS. The presence of the strongest BAS (Nb-25/SBA-15) resulted in the highest dehydration activity, whereas a high concentration of BAS was unfavorable. Silylation of niobium catalysts prepared by impregnation reduced the number of acidic sites and significantly increased acrolein yield and selectivity (from ca. 43% selectivity for Nb-25/SBA-15 to ca. 61% for silylated sample). This was accompanied by a considerable decrease in coke formation (from 47% selectivity for Nb-25/SBA-15 to 27% for silylated material).

Abstract One of the most significant aspects in selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of nitrogen oxides (NOx) is developing suitable catalysts by which the process occurs in a favorable way. At the present work SCR reaction by ammonia (NH3-SCR) was conducted using Co-Mn spinel and its composite with Fe-Mn spinel, as nanocatalysts. The nanocatalysts were fabricated through liquid routes and then their physicochemical properties such as phase composition, degree of agglomeration, particle size distribution, specific surface area and also surface acidic sites have been investigated by X-ray diffraction, Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope, Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy mapping, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller, temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR) and temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia (NH3-TPD) analysis techniques. The catalytic activity tests in a temperature window of 150–400 °C and gas hourly space velocities of 10,000, 18,000 and 30,000 h−1 revealed that almost in all studied conditions, CoMn2O4/FeMn2O4 nanocomposite exhibited better performance in SCR reaction than CoMn2O4 spinel.
