چکیده

Silica-supported tantalum clusters (on average, approximately tritantalum) were formed by the treatment, in either H(2) or ethane, of adsorbed Ta(CH(2)Ph)(5); the supported catalyst is active for ethane conversion to methane and propane at 523 K, with the used catalyst containing clusters of the same average nuclearity as the precursor.

Tantalum Clusters Supported on Silica-Alumina and on γ−Al2O3: Influence of Support Composition and Chemistry on Cluster Structure

Junming Sun and Bruce C. Gates* Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science, University of California, Davis, California 95616 USA *[email protected] Introduction Reports of clusters of early transition metals on supports are still rare, although there is an extensive literature of the synthesis and chemistry of such clusters in solution [1]. Our earlier work demonstrated that ta...

Optimizing the Preparation Conditions of Silica Supported Fe-Co-Ce Ternary Catalyst for the Fixed-bed Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis: Taguchi Experimental Design Approach

Using wet impregnation method, a novel ternary system of silica supported Fe-Co-Ce catalyst was prepared. Preparation conditions such as impregnation time and temperature, drying time and temperature, were optimized by the L9 Taguchi experimental design to achieve a light olefin selective catalyst with maximum CO conversion in a fixed bed micro-reactor. It was found that the best conditions to ...

Hydroconversion of Furfural over Cu-Cr/SiO2 Nanocatalysts: A Comparative Study

Furfural is one of the most promising chemical platforms with bright perspective with respect to the production of biobased chemicals and fuels from lignocellulosic material. Globally, the majority of this biomass derived chemical is converted into furfuryl alcohol, a building block in polymers industry. The vapor-phase hydrogenation of furfural over copper species dispersed on two types of sil...

KCl Promoted Cobalt-iron Nanocatalysts Supported on Silica: Catalytic Performance and Characterization in Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis

The SiO2 supported cobalt-iron nano catalysts were prepared by the sol-gel method. This research investigated the effects of (Co/Fe) wt.%, different Co/Fe ratio at different temperature and loading of KCl wt.% for Fisher-Tropsch synthesis (FTS). The results were showed that the catalyst containing 50 wt.% (Co/Fe)/SiO2 (Co/Fe ratio is 70/30) which promoted with 0.6 wt.% KCl is an optimal nano ca...

Vanadium oxide supported on mesocellulous silica foams (MCF): An efficient and reusable catalyst for selective oxidation of sulfides

A green, efficient and selective approach for the oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides and sulfones with UHP at room temperature is reported. The reaction is performed in the presence of vanadia catalyst supported on mesocellular silica foam (MCF) with a V content ranging from 2% to 10% as heterogeneous and reusable catalyst. The structural and textural characterization of this catalyst were don...
