A 1%Ni/SBA-15(P) catalyst was synthesized with a P123-assisted impregnation method, which exhibited high CO2 conversion and stability in the reverse water-gas shift reaction. For catalyst, TEM TPR characterizations demonstrated that highly dispersed NiO particles at about 3 nm strongly interacted SiO2 support. During reaction, higher than 1%Ni/SBA-15 prepared by conventional method without P123...

The present study examined the effect of three methods of preparation on the properties and catalytic performance of Cu-Mn/SiO2 catalysts for the water gas shift reaction (WGSR). Impregnation and coprecipitation and the new approach of thermal decomposition of [Cu(H2O)6][Mn(dipic)2].2H2O/SiO2 inorganic precursor complex were used for the synthesis of the silica-supported copper-manganese mixed ...

This communication describes the fabrication of Pt/CeO2 nanotube@SiO2 core-shell catalysts applied to highly efficient water-gas shift reaction, where the initial CO conversion is 30.2% at 250 °C. Pt/CeO2 nanotube@SiO2 core-shell catalysts show outstanding thermal stability, even after accelerated aging under reaction conditions at 450 °C for 6 h, and the morphology is also unchanged after ther...

Traditional analysis of reactions catalyzed by supported metals involves the structure of the metallic particles. However, we report here that for the class of nanostructured gold- or platinum-cerium oxide catalysts, which are active for the water-gas shift reaction, metal nanoparticles do not participate in the reaction. Nonmetallic gold or platinum species strongly associated with surface cer...

The conversion of carbon sources such as coal and methane into liquid fuels, methanol and alkanes, the latter via the Fisher-Tropsch process, requires careful control of the H2/CO ratio in synthesis gas. 1 The control is achieved in industry by the water-gas shift reaction. (Figure 1). 2 The study of carbon monoxide dehydrogenase (CODH) enzymes is significant to the water gas shift reaction bec...
