  • The Combination of Calcium Oxide and Cu/Zro2 Catalyst and Their Selective Products for CO2 Hydrogenation
    Article The Combination of Calcium Oxide and Cu/ZrO2 Catalyst and their Selective Products for CO2 Hydrogenation Soipatta Soisuwan1,a,b,*, Wilasinee Wisaijorn1, Chalida Nimnul1, Orawan Maunghimapan1, and Piyasan Praserthdam2 1 Department of Chemical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Burapha University, 169 Long-Hard Bangsaen Road, Saensuk Sub-District, Muang District, Chonburi, 20130, Thailand 2 Center of Excellence in Catalysis and Catalytic Reaction Engineering, Department of Chemical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Chulalongkorn University, Phayathai Road, Pathuwan District, Bangkok 10330, Thailand E-mail: [email protected] (Corresponding author), [email protected] Abstract. The catalytic activities of Cu/ZrO2_CaO catalysts were investigated on CO2 hydrogenation. The CO2 hydrogenations were carried out over combination of calcium oxide and Cu/ZrO2 catalyst. Two calcination temperatures were chosen at 300 and 650 oC according to thermal decomposition results. The catalysts were characterized by means of N2 adsorption-desorption, H2 temperature programmed reduction and X-ray diffraction. The CO2 hydrogenation under atmospheric pressure and at 250 oC was carried out over copper-based catalysts combined with calcium oxide namely i.e. Cu/ZrO 2 _CaO300, Cu/ZrO 2 _CaO650, Cu/ZrO2_Cu/CaO and Cu/ZrO2+CaO. The catalytic activities over all catalysts were consistent for 4 hours. The catalytic reaction rates over copper-based catalysts were in the range of 21.8 – 47.4 mol L-1 s-1 g cat-1. The modification of calcium oxide can improve the catalytic activity of copper-based catalysts to 47.4 mol L-1 s-1 g cat-1. The calcination temperature can cause a difference in active species that impact on product selectivity.

Infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy (IRAS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) in combination with density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been employed to reveal the correlation between the vibrational frequencies of the hydroxyl groups and the distinct hydroxylated surface phases that develop as a function of water exposure. In the low-coverage regime, water monomers, small water clusters, and one-dimensional water chains are formed on the CaO(001) surface. At increasing water coverages, water-induced structural disorder is observed, indicating 2+ partial solvation of Ca ions. Partial transformation of CaO(001) into a Ca(OH)2-like phase occurs upon dosing of water at submillibar water pressure. In addition, it was found that interfacial hydroxyl groups formed on the CaO(001) surface during water exposure at temperatures as low as 100 K shift the temperatures for ice desorption and for the transition from amorphous solid water to crystalline ice by 10 K as compared to those for the nonhydroxylated MgO surface.

Box 663, 25000, Saltillo, Coahuila, México b Instituto Tecnológico de Saltillo V. Carranza Blvd. 2500, Saltillo, Coahuila, México Received 3 May 2007; accepted 8 June 2007 Available online 16 June 2007 Abstract This work reports the results of laboratory experiments conduced to follow the kinetics of strontium recovery into the Al–Mg alloy by metallothermic reduction of SrO. The reagent was incorporated to molten alloy by the use of submerged powders injection technique. The variables analyzed were the injection time, the melt temperature and the initial magnesium content. Magnesium is added to the melt to increase the reactivity and reduce the surface tension of the molten aluminum. It was possible to increase the strontium content from 0 to 5 wt.% after 60 min of treatment. The results were fitted to a general kinetic equation, which allowed it to obtain the kinetic parameters, i.e. order of reaction and activation energy of the process. As the main mechanism of the strontium recovery process is of diffusive type, the global process rate increases as the temperature and initial amount of the magnesium increased. © 2007 Elsevier B.V.

Woodley * ID Department of Chemistry, University College London, London WC1H 0AJ, UK; [email protected] (S.G.E.T.E.); [email protected] (T.L.); [email protected] (M.A.Z.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 21 November 2017; Accepted: 7 February 2018; Published: 21 February 2018 Abstract: Knowing the possible structures of individual clusters in nanostructured materials is an important first step in their design. With previous structure prediction data for BaO nanoclusters as a basis, data mining techniques were used to investigate candidate structures for magnesium oxide, calcium oxide and strontium oxide clusters. The lowest-energy structures and analysis of some of their structural properties are presented here. Clusters that are predicted to be ideal targets for synthesis, based on being both the only thermally accessible minimum for their size, and a size that is thermally accessible with respect to neighbouring sizes, include global minima for: sizes n = 9, 15, 16, 18 and 24 for (MgO)n; sizes n = 8, 9, 12, 16, 18 and 24 for (CaO)n; the greatest number of sizes of (SrO)n clusters (n = 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 15, 16, 18 and 24); and for (BaO)n sizes of n = 8, 10 and 16. Keywords: inorganic nanoclusters; global optimization; data mining; computational modelling; magnesium oxide; calcium oxide; strontium oxide; barium oxide 1. Introduction Structure determination of materials plays an important role in materials design because the properties of materials are inherently linked to their atomic and electronic structure.

The resulting dioxide (CO2) storage: (i) the fixation of CO2 in the form of carbonated solids must be stored at an environmentally suitable inorganic carbonates, also known as ‘mineral carbonation’ or location.
