Thermodynamics and Kinetics of the Adsorption of Carbon Monoxide on Supported Gold Catalysts Probed by Static Adsorption Microcalorimetry: The Role of the Support
نویسندگان
چکیده
The interaction of carbon monoxide and oxygen with gold particles supported on zinc oxide, alumina, and titania was investigated by microcalorimetry. Multiple processes were detected during CO adsorption, including adsorption of CO on the gold particles and support, oxidation of CO, and formation of carbonates. The rate of O2 adsorption was much slower than that of CO adsorption. The heats and entropies of CO adsorption on the Au sites indicated that the interaction between CO and Au supported on TiO2 is much stronger than that between CO and Au supported on ZnO. The Au/ZnO sample had the largest amount of lattice oxygen (7.6 μmol/g), which reacted with CO to give CO2.

Catalytic Oxidation of Carbon Monoxide by Cobalt Oxide Catalysts Supported on Oxidized-MWCNT
Cobalt oxide catalysts supported on oxidized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) for the low-temperature catalytic oxidation of carbon monoxide were prepared by an impregnation-ultrasound method. These catalysts were characterized by N2 adsorption/desorption, TEM, XRD, Raman, and H2-TPR methods. The XRD and Raman results indicated that the phase of the synthesized cobalt...
متن کاملThermodynamics of carbon monoxide adsorption on polycrystalline titania studied by static adsorption microcalorimetry.
The adsorption of CO on polycrystalline TiO2 was investigated by static adsorption microcalorimetry. The initial differential heat of adsorption (qdiff,0) of CO on polycrystalline titania is 40 kJ/mol, and the standard adsorption entropy (Deltas0) is -104 J mol(-1) K(-1). These results are consistent with those derived from temperature-programmed desorption and FTIR results in the literature. T...

A new activated carbon was produced from pulp and paper mill sludge as a low cost precursor via chemical activation by zinc chloride. The activated carbon was successfully used for the adsorption of phenol and two of its derivatives, i.e. 2-chlorophenol and 4-nitrophenol from aqueous solutions. The characterization of the prepared activated carbon demonstrated high textural properties for the s...
