Present experiments show that synthesized polycrystalline hexagonal α-Mo2C is a highly efficient and selective catalyst for CO2 uptake conversion to CO through the reverse water gas shift reaction. The ∼16% at 673 K, with selectivity toward > 99%. adsorption monitored by DRIFTS, TPD, microcalorimetry, series of DFT based calculations including contribution dispersion terms. on most stable model surfaces allow identifying numerous binding sites present surface, leading high complexity in...
Steam-reforming of ethanol over ZnO gives highly effective production CO-free H2: 5.1 mol H2 per reacted is formed at 723 K under 100% conversion.
The transformation of Co3O4 during steam-re-forming ethanol was investigated at atmospheric pressure in the 523−673 K temperature range using a bioethanol-like mixture. initial and after reaction materials were characterized by Brunauer−Emmett−Teller method, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission situ magnetic measurements. performance material those obtained under conditions determined. During activation process, measurements catalytic evaluation...
Cobalt metal particles have several stable phases depending on their size and the temperature employed in preparation. The face-centred cubic (fcc) structure is thermodynamically above 450 °C, whereas hexagonal-closed packed (hcp) phase at lower temperatures. oxide reduction carried out under H2 atmosphere leads to fcc-Co phase. This study shows that of cobalt CO or H2+CO mixtures giver rise formation a hcp-Co phase, which still remains high temperatures (up 700°C). circumstance due...
Microcalorimetric and infrared studies of ethanol acetaldehyde adsorption were carried out on fresh deactivated ZnO-supported cobalt catalysts (Co/ZnO Co/ZnO(d), respectively) as well ZnO support alone. The results used to analyze the catalytic behavior these materials for steam-reforming reactions. Co/ZnO(d) sample contained extensive carbon deposition shown by Raman spectroscopy transmission electron microscopy. On Co/ZnO, energetics (an intermediate in reforming reaction) similar. Under...
