Performance of Ni-added Pd-Ag/Al2O3 catalysts in the selective hydrogenation of acetylene

Effects of Ni addition on the performance of Pd-Ag/Al₂O₃ catalysts in the selective hydrogenation of acetylene were investigated. Ni-added Pd-Ag catalysts showed higher conversions than Ni-free Pd-Ag catalyst under hydrogen-deficient reaction conditions, hydrogen/acetylene <2.0, due to the spillover of hydrogen from reduced Ni to Pd and the suppression of hydrogen penetration into the Pd bulk phase, which enriched the Pd surface with hydrogen. Ethylene selectivity was also increased by Ni addition because the amounts of surface hydrogen originating from the Pd bulk phase, which was responsible for the full hydrogenation of ethylene to ethane, were decreased due to the presence of Ni at the sub-surface of Pd-Ag particles. Added Ni also modified the geometric nature of the Pd surface by blocking large ensembles of Pd into isolated ones, which eventually improved ethylene selectivity.     

Effect of method of preparation on activity of Pd/Al2O3 monolith catalysts

Pd/Al₂O₃ monolithic catalyst of different washcoat thicknesses were prepared by two methods and tested for the activity of hydrogenation of α‐methyl styrene. These catalysts were prepared by two methods; either the palladium was impregnated on γ‐alumina and this Pd/Al₂O₃ powder was used to prepare the slurry for washcoating (Cat 1) or γ‐alumina washcoating was followed by impregnation of palladium (Cat 2). The effect of slurry concentration, pH of the slurry, and addition of binders on the catalyst properties was investigated. The monolithic catalysts were characterised by determination of metal dispersion, surface area, scanning electron microscopy, and weight loss of washcoat during ultrasonication. Well‐adhered washcoats were obtained with slurry prepared using milled γ‐alumina, whereas the adhesion of the washcoat prepared using Pd/Al₂O₃ powders was very poor. Addition of binders significantly improved the adhesion of the washcoats prepared from Pd/Al₂O₃. Metal dispersion for Cat 2 decreased with washcoat loading but did not change with loading for Cat 1. The activity tests were conducted at different washcoat loadings and the productivity of the monolithic catalyst prepared in both methods has been compared.     

Benzyltitanium- und -zirconium/Al2O3-Katalysatoren zur partiellen Hydrierung von Acetylen

Benzyl Titanium and Zirconium Alumina Catalysts for Partial Hydrogenation of Acetylene Benzyl titanium and zirconium compounds of the types Bzl₄M, C₅H₅MBzl₃, and (C₅H₅)₂MBzl₂ form surface compounds on dehydroxylated alumina (15% α-, and 85% δ-Al₂O₃) which on hydrogenolysis yield TiH- and ZrH-species. The supported systems were studied with respect to catalytic activity in the partial hydrogenation of acetylene. Supported (C₅H₅)₂TiBzl₂ was proved to be inactive and the systems C₅H₅TiBzl₃(Al₂O₃) and Bzl₄/Al₂O₃ catalyze the formation of polyacetylene, but catalysts containing benzyl zirconium species are suitable for the partial hydrogenation of acetylene. Acitivity and selectivity of the system C₅H₅ZrBzl₃/Al₂O₃ are comparable to industrial used Pd/Al₂O₃ catalysts.     

CO2 Hydrogenation to Methanol Over Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 Catalysts Prepared by a Novel Gel-Network-Coprecipitation Method

A novel gel-network-coprecipitation process has been developed to prepare ultrafine Cu/ZnO/Al₂O₃ catalysts for methanol synthesis from CO₂ hydrogenation. It is demonstrated that the gel-network-coprecipitation method can allow the preparation of the ultrafine Cu/ZnO/Al₂O₃ catalysts by homogeneous coprecipitation of the metal nitrate salts in the gel network formed by gelatin solution, which makes the metallic copper in the reduced catalyst exist in much smaller crystallite size and exhibit a much higher metallic copper-specific surface area. The effect of the gel concentration of gelatin on the structure, morphology and catalytic properties of the Cu/ZnO/Al₂O₃ catalysts for methanol synthesis from hydrogenation of carbon dioxide was investigated. The Cu/ZnO/Al₂O₃ catalysts prepared by the gel-network-coprecipitation method exhibit a high catalytic activity and selectivity in CO₂ hydrogenation to methanol.     

Pd‐Ag/α‐Al2O3 Catalyst Deactivation in Acetylene Selective Hydrogenation Process

The selective hydrogenation of acetylene to ethylene over Pd‐Ag/α‐Al₂O₃ catalysts prepared by different impregnation/reduction methods was studied. The best catalytic performance was achieved with the sample prepared by sequential impregnation. A kinetic model based on first order in acetylene and 0.5th order in hydrogen for the main reaction and second‐order independent decay law for catalyst deactivation was used to fit the conversion time data and to obtain quantitative assessment of catalyst performances. Fair fits were observed from which the reaction and deactivation rate constants were evaluated. Coke deposition amounts showed a good correlation with catalyst deactivation rate constants, indicating that coke formation should be the main cause of catalyst deactivation.     

Catalytic activity of Pd/Al2O3 toward the combustion of methane

This work focuses on the improving of the activities and stabilities of Pd/Al₂O₃ catalysts for lean methane catalytic combustion. The influence of preparation conditions on performance of Pd/Al₂O₃ catalyst has been studied. Results showed that excellent performance of the catalyst was attributed to high hydrothermal stability at the support calcination temperature of 1100 °C. In addition, the catalytic activity was enhanced due to high dispersion of active species at lower catalyst calcination temperature. The catalysts were studied by XPS analysis. Results showed that the active phase of Pd/Al₂O₃ was Pd or Pd/PdO mixture. And the state transformation of Pd species resulted in the deactivation of Pd/Al₂O₃.     

A Pd/Al2O3/cordierite monolithic catalyst for hydrogenation of 2-ethylanthraquinone

A novel Pd/Al₂O₃/cordierite monolithic catalyst was prepared and investigated in hydrogenation of 2-ethylanthraquinone (eAQ) for H₂O₂ production. It was found that there was an optimal penetrating depth on the monolithic catalyst. By adjusting the loading on the Al₂O₃, the penetrating depth of Pd could be efficiently confined in the Al₂O₃ washcoat. When Pd distribution matched well with Pd content, the higher yields of H₂O₂ could be obtained. As a result, the average yield on monolithic catalyst was 1.3 times of that on pellet catalyst, and the products distribution confirmed the monolithic catalyst was the optimal for H₂O₂ production.     

Co–Pd/γ‐Al2O3 catalyst for heavy oil upgrading: Desorption kinetics,reducibility and catalytic activity

The influence of Pd on a Co–Pd/γ‐Al₂O₃ heavy oil upgrading catalyst is investigated using different physicochemical and reactive Characterization techniques. Nitrogen adsorption isotherm analysis shows that the specific surface area and porosity of the support alumina is significantly decreased due to the blockage of the pores by the loaded cobalt species. The estimated activation energy of NH₃ desorption is found to be less for Co–Pd/γ‐Al₂O₃ sample, which confirms improved acidity due to Pd. TPR experiments show that the reducibility of the catalyst is significantly improved with the presence of Pd. Higher metal dispersion and hydrogen spillover effects are the main reasons for the enhanced reducibility of the Pd promoted catalyst as revealed by the H₂‐pulse chemisorptions study. When evaluated using VGO as feed stock, the Co–Pd/γ‐Al₂O₃ displayed superiority both in hydrodesulphurisation (HDS) and hydrocracking (HC) activities as compared to the unpromoted Co/γ‐Al₂O₃ catalyst. The coke deposition on the spent catalyst is also found to be low due to the Pd promotional effects. This is an encouraging result, given that higher hydrogenation activity of the catalyst can be achieved without compromising the cracking activity and sustained activity of the catalyst.     

The effect of ceria content on the properties of Pd/CeO2/Al2O3 catalysts for steam reforming of methane

The effect of CeO₂ loading on the surface properties and catalytic behaviors of CeO₂–Al₂O₃-supported Pd catalysts was studied in the process of steam reforming of methane. The catalysts were characterized by S_BET, X-ray diffraction (XRD), temperature-programmed reduction (TPR), UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The XRD measurements indicated that palladium particles on the surface of fresh and reduced catalysts are well dispersed. TPR experiments revealed a heterogeneous distribution of PdO species over CeO₂–Al₂O₃ supports; one fraction of large particles, reducible at room temperature, another fraction interacting with CeO₂ and Al₂O₃, reducible at higher temperatures of 347 and 423 K, respectively. The PdO species reducible at room temperature showed lower CO adsorption relative to the PdO species reducible at high temperature. In contrast to Pd/Al₂O₃, the FTIR results revealed that CeO₂-containing catalyst with CeO₂ loading ≥12 wt.% show lower ratio (LF/HF) between the intensity of the CO bands in the bridging mode at low frequency (LF) and the linear mode at high frequency (HF). This ratio was constant with increasing the temperature of reduction. The FTIR spectra and the measurement of Pd dispersion suggested that Pd surface becomes partially covered with ceria at all temperature of reduction and with increasing ceria loading in Pd/CeO₂–Al₂O₃ catalysts. Although the PdO/Al₂O₃ showed higher Pd dispersion compared to that of CeO₂-containing catalysts, the addition of ceria resulted in an increase of the turnover rate and specific rate to steam reforming of methane. The CH₄ turnover rate of Pd/CeO₂–Al₂O₃ catalysts with ceria loading ≥12 wt.% was around four orders of magnitude higher compared to that of Pd/Al₂O₃ catalyst. The increase of the activity of the catalysts was attributed to various effects of CeO₂ such as: (i) change of superficial Pd structure with blocking of Pd sites; (ii) the jumping of oxygen (O^*) from ceria to Pd surface, which can decrease the carbon formation on Pd surface. Considering that these effects of CeO₂ are opposite to changes of the reaction rate, the increase of specific reaction rate with enhancing the ceria loading suggests that net effect results in the increase of the accessibility of CH₄ to metal active sites.     

Single‐stage Treatment in Selective Hydrogenation of Acetylene over CDS Type of Pd‐Ag/Al2O3 Catalyst

The (computer designed shape) CDS type of Pd‐Ag/Al₂O₃ catalyst in single‐stage reactor provides superior catalytic activity and selectivity of ethylene in comparison with those of existed two‐stage reactors packed with G‐58B catalyst under industrial operating conditions. In this research, the contents of palladium and silver of catalysts were analyzed by inductive coupling plasma (ICP). The X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) showed that Pd‐Ag alloy has been formed. Higher yield of ethylene may be interpreted by both geometric and electronic effect induced from silver metal. By means of Pyrolysis/GC/MS analysis of used catalysts, the components of carbonaceous deposits were found to be n‐alkenes, including n‐C8 ～ n‐C16 or n‐C18, which may result from oligomerization of acetylene.
