Nanodispersed Ni-catalysts with Additives in Partial Oxidation of Methane

Synthesis of single-site copper catalysts for methane partial oxidation.

Cu-Exchanged zeolites are known as active materials for methane oxidation to methanol. However, understanding of the formation of Cu active species during synthesis, dehydration and activation is fragmented and rudimentary. We show here how a synthesis protocol guided by insight in the ion exchange elementary steps leads to highly uniform Cu species in mordenite (MOR).

Catalytic Partial Oxidation of Methane over Fe2(MoO4)3 Catalysts

The study of new energy carriers for sustainable energy conversion processes is a hot research area. Among the potential energy carriers one finds biogas, containing a large fraction of methane, which attracts high interests worldwide. However, to be more useful, e.g., concerning storage and transportation, conversion of gaseous methane fuel into liquid fuel like methanol is desired. The conven...

H2 Production from Partial Oxidation of iso-Octane over Ni/Ce0.75Zr0.25O2 and Ni/β- Al2O3 Catalysts

In this study, the partial oxidation of iso-octane over Ni/Ce0.75Zr0.25O2 and Ni/β”Al2O3 catalysts was investigated. The results indicated that Ni/Ce0.75Zr0.25O2 is more active than Ni/β”-Al2O3. The partial oxidation products are mainly H2 and CO for Ni/Ce0.75Zr0.25O2 with hydrogen selectivity up to 85%. The H2/CO ratio is in the range of 1.3-2.0 depending on the operating temperature. It was n...

Partial and Total Oxidation of Methane in Monolithic Catalysts at Short Contact Times

Effect of Additives on Mn/SiO2 Based Catalysts on Oxidative Coupling of Methane

The Oxidative Coupling of Methane (OCM) over M-Na-Mn/SiO2 catalysts (M=W, Cr, Nb and V) was investigated using a continuous-flow quartz reactor at 775°C, 1 atm and 100 cm3min-1 gas flow rates, and correlated with the observed structure and redox properties.The interaction effects of the metal-metal and metal-support on the...
