NH3 decomposition is important because of its potential use in generating CO-free H2. In this study, several cheap metals (Fe, Co, Ni, and Cu) a series supports (zeolite materials: TS-1 um, nm, HZSM-5 NaZSM-5 nm; SiO2-based fumed SiO2 SiO2-ball; metal oxide r′-Al2O3 TiO2) were used to prepare supported catalysts. X-ray fluorescence, N2 physisorption, diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, temperature-programmed desorption, mass spectrometry,...

Highly effective catalysts are of great importance for artificial nitrogen fixation. Inspired by the natural nitrogenase, we biomimetically designed an inorganic catalyst, Mo(IV)-doped FeS2, electroreduction dinitrogen to ammonia. The Mo(IV) ions favor adsorption and activation N2, while FeS2 substrate depresses competitive hydrogen evolution reaction, two factors jointly endow catalyst with a high Faraday efficiency 14.41% at −0.2 V versus RHE.

Introducing oxygen vacancy (Vo) has been considered as an effective and significant method to accelerate the sluggish electrocatalytic nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR). In this work, a series of bimetallic zeolitic imidazolate frameworks based on ZIF-67 ZIF-8 with varied ratios Co/Zn have applied precursors prepare Vo-rich Zn-doped Co3O4 nanopolyhedrons (Zn–Co3O4) by low-temperature oxidation strategy. Zn–Co3O4 presents ammonia yield 22.71 μg h–1 mgcat.–1 high faradaic efficiency 11.9% for...

Industrial production of HCN from NH3 and CH4 not only uses precious Pt or Pt–Rh catalysts but also requires extremely high temperatures (∼1600 K). From an energetic, operational, safety perspective, a drastic decrease in temperature is highly desirable. Here, we report ammonia reforming methane for the H2 at 673 K by combination CH4/NH3 plasma supported Cu/silicalite-1 catalyst. 30% conversion has been achieved with 79% selectivity. Catalyst characterization diagnostics reveal that...

The electrochemical nitrogen (N2 ) reduction reaction RR) under mild conditions is a promising and environmentally friendly alternative to the traditional Haber-Bosch process with high energy consumption greenhouse emission for synthesis of ammonia (NH3 ), but high-yielding production rendered challenging by strong nonpolar N≡N bond in N2 molecules, which hinders their dissociation or activation. In this study, disordered Au nanoclusters anchored on two-dimensional ultrathin Ti3 C2 Tx MXene...

The catalytic reduction of NO with NH3 (NH3-SCR) on phosphorus-doped carbon aerogels (P-CAs) was studied in the temperature range 100-200 °C. P-CAs were prepared by a one-pot sol-gel method using phosphoric acid as phosphorus source followed carbonization at 600-900 A correlation between activity and surface P content is observed. P-CA-800vac sample obtained via 800 °C vacuum treatment 380 shows highest conversion 45.6-76.8% under gas hourly space velocity 500 h-1 for inlet mixture ppm NO,...

Novel Mn–Ce–Ti–O composite aerogels with large mesopore size were prepared via a one-pot sol–gel method by using propylene oxide as network gel inducer and ethyl acetoacetate complexing agent. The effect of calcination temperature (400, 500, 600, 700 °C) on the NH3–selective catalytic reduction (SCR) performance obtained was investigated. results show that catalyst calcined at 600 °C exhibits highest NH3–SCR activity lowest apparent activation energy due to its most abundant Lewis acid sites...
