| 1 | 催化一步转化木质素单体为苯酚:建立木质素到高附加值化学品的通道(英文)显示文摘木质素是地球上产量最大的芳香类有机高分子,其有效转化利用在近年来备受关注.催化降解木质素制备酚类单体在过去十年取得了长足进步,目前已开发出氢解、水解、热解、氧化、光解等一系列方法.通过加氢脱氧法可以将木质素的降解产物转化为烃类燃料,但该过程耗氢量大,并且芳香环在加氢气氛下被破坏.另一个可能的应用是将木质素衍生物进一步转化为高附加值的芳香族化合物,但解聚产物成分复杂,成为木质素高效转化为单一高附加值化学品的瓶颈.在加氢条件下,木质素解聚产物主要为酚类混合物,多在羟基临位带有一至两个甲氧基,并在对位带有C2或C3的取代基(多为烷基).针对这一结构特点,我们设计了新反应路径,通过分别去除甲氧基和烷基得到苯酚.该过程保留了苯酚的基本结构而将其他取代基去除,原理上可以有效的将木质素降解的混合物转化为单一产物苯酚.通过催化剂的筛选和优化,Pt/C催化剂对脱甲氧基显示出最好的活性和选择性,在400°C,常压下脱除效率>80%.在流动气氛下连续工作4 h,Pt/C催化剂无失活迹象.H-ZSM-5为最有效的脱烷基催化剂,最优效率83%左右.H-ZSM-5在反应过程中逐渐失活.通过热重差热及红外光谱分析,失活主要原因为积碳.在400°C空气中煅烧后,催化剂可以再生.通过简单的物理混合,Pt/C和H-ZSM-5一步将木质素单体转化为60%的苯酚,显示了该方法直接转化木质素到高附加值苯酚的巨大潜力.这是同时将木质素中甲氧基、烷基选择性脱除的首例报道.经过估算,从原生木质素出发,通过加氢解聚,耦合本文开发的一步脱甲氧基、烷基路径,可将木质素转化为约25%的苯酚.木质素中的甲氧基、烷基将分别转化为甲醇和烯烃,提高了木质素碳资源的利用效率. | 张佳光 Loris Lombardo Gokalp Gozaydin Paul J.Dyson 颜宁 | 2018 | Chinese Journal of Catalysis2018,39,9: | 5 |
| 2 | Study of borohydride ionic liquids as hydrogen storage materials显示文摘Stability of borohydrides is determined by the localization of the negative charge on the boron atom.Ionic liquids(ILs) allow to modify the stability of the borohydrides and promote new dehydrogenation pathways with a lower activation energy. The combination of borohydride and IL is very easy to realize and no expensive rare earth metals are required. The composite of the ILs with complex hydrides decreases the enthalpy and activation energy for the hydrogen desorption. The Coulomb interaction between borohydride and IL leads to a destabilization of the materials with a significantly lower enthalpy for hydrogen desorption. Here, we report a simple ion exchange reaction using various ILs, such as vinylbenzyltrimethylammonium chloride([VBTMA][Cl]), 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride([bmim][Cl]), and 1-ethyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium bromide([EMPY][Br]) with NaBH4 to decrease the hydrogen desorption temperature. Dehydrogenation of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium borohydride([bmim][BH4]) starts below 100℃. The quantity of desorbed hydrogen ranges between 2.4 wt% and 2.9 wt%, which is close to the theoretical content of hydrogen. The improvement in dehydrogenation is due to the strong amine cation that destabilizes borohydride by charge transfer. | Loris Lombardo Heena Yang Andreas Züttel | 2019 | Journal of Energy Chemistry2019,28,6: | 2 |
| 3 | Unraveling and optimizing the metal-metal oxide synergistic effect in a highly active Co_(x)(CoO)_(1–x) catalyst for CO_(2) hydrogenation显示文摘The relation between catalytic reactivities and metal/metal oxide ratios, as well as the functions of the metal and the metal oxides were investigated in the CO_2 hydrogenation reaction over highly active Co_x(CoO)_(1–x)catalysts in operando. The catalytic reactivity of the samples in the CO_2 methanation improves with the increased Co O concentration. Strikingly, the sample with the highest concentration of CoO, i.e., Co_(0.2)(CoO)_(0.8), shows activity at temperatures lower than 200 °C where the other samples with less CoO are inactive. The origins of this improvement are the increased amount and moderate binding of adsorbed CO_2 on CoO sites. The derivative adsorption species are found to be intermediates of the CH4 formation. The metallic Co functions as the electronically catalytic site which provides electrons for the hydrogenation steps. As a result, an abundant amount of CoO combined with Co is the optimal composition of the catalyst for achieving the highest reactivity for CO_2 hydrogenation. | Kun Zhao Marco Calizzi Emanuele Moioli Mo Li Alexandre Borsay Loris Lombardo Robin Mutschler Wen Luo Andreas Zuttel | 2021 | Journal of Energy Chemistry2021,30,2: | 0 |
