Nitrous Oxide Decomposition over Alkali-Promoted Magnesium Cobaltite Catalysts

Catalytic decomposition of CF4 over copper promoted mesoporous catalysts

A series of mesoporous catalysts (MCM-41) promoted by copper oxide nanoparticles were prepared by the co-precipitation method and tested for the decomposition of carbon tetrafluoride (CF4). The addition of copper oxide nanoparticles to MCM-41 led to an improvement in the catalytic activity for CF4 decomposition. The catalyst was the most active around 5 wt% copper oxide added to MCM-41. Methods...

Hydrogenation of carbon monoxide over vanadium oxide- promoted rhodium catalysts

The effect of vanadium oxide as support and promoter on supported rhodium catalysts on the CO hydrogenation has been investigated at 0.15 and 4.0 MPa. Rh/V,O, reduced at 723 K has a good selectivity toward oxygenated products, especially C,-oxygenates, but has a low activity added as a promoter to catalysts consisting and stability. Vanadium oxide of rhodium supported on silica and alumina show...

Rare Earth-Promoted Nickel Oxide Nanoparticles as Catalysts for N2O Direct Decomposition

For this paper, a series of rare earth (Gd, La, Sm) promoted NiO catalysts were prepared by using the microwave-assisted precipitation method and tested for N2O direct decomposition. The obtained solids have been characterized by using various techniques. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results revealed that the incorporation of RE oxides into NiO significantly decreases its crystallite size. Field-emi...

Nitrous Oxide Decomposition on the Binuclear [Fe

Hydrogen production from methanol decomposition over Pt/Al2O3 and ceria promoted Pt/Al2O3 catalysts

We present the activities and selectivities of Pt/Al2O3-based catalysts in the production of hydrogen from methanol through catalytic decomposition. For the decomposition reaction, the Pt and Pd catalysts promoted by ceria exhibit similar activity reaching 100% conversion at 315 C. Promoting with ceria had a positive effect on activity and selectivity. Among all catalysts, the 9% Pt– 10% CeO2/A...
