Catalytic conversion of furfural and its derivatives to value-added C 5 molecules has attractive much attention in the field of biomass conversion . In this paper, the selective hydrogenolysis of tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol to 1,5-pentanediol has been studied over a series of PrO x promoted Ni/Al 2 O 3 catalysts. The catalytic performances and the promoting effects of PrO x , as well as the role of Ni and PrO x species have been discussed. The surface properties and structure of catalysts were examined by TEM, XRD, XPS, H 2 -TPR, H 2 -TPD, in-situ DRIFTS, etc. The presence of PrO x species promotes the reaction rate and changes product selectivity significantly, and a 79.2% 1,5-pentanediol selectivity can be obtained at 88.4% conversion over the NiPr 1.2 /Al 2 O 3 catalyst. The synergistic effect between defect-rich PrO x and the adjacent active Ni species has been confirmed to contribute to the superior catalytic performances. These results provide useful knowledge for the activation of cyclic ether bonds and the design of heterogeneous catalysts with lanthanide oxide supports.

Cellulose hydrolysis and further conversion to diketones and alcohols was performed with graphene layer encapsulated cobalt catalysts (Co@C) in phosphoric acid aqueous solution. A total of 60.5% yield of the products mainly including ethanol, 2,5-hexanedione (2,5-HD) and diols could be achieved in 0.06 M H3PO4 solution. A series of characterization methods such as XRD, XPS, TEM, TG-MS, BET, ICP, H2-TPD, NH3-TPD, and Raman were carried out to explore the catalyst formation mechanism and reaction activity. The results of the analysis indicated that the calcination temperature had a deep influence on the structure formation of the Co@C catalysts, thus leading to differences in the reaction activity. While the calcination temperature was determined at 700 °C, the Co@C catalyst meets with the requirements of optimal reaction activity, appropriate particle size, suitable surface area, and pore size. Besides, it was found that H3PO4 is not only favorable in cellulose hydrolysis but also cooperates with the Co@C catalyst in the hydrogenolysis of C–O bond and C–C bonds for the formation of products. This work provides a possible way for renewable cellulose conversion to diketone and alcohols over encapsulated non-noble metal catalyst combined with phosphoric acid aqueous solution.

The development of thermally stable Pt-based catalysts with superior performance for propane dehydrogenation reactions remains a daunting challenge. In this study, a series of PtSn-Mg(Zn)AlO catalysts with different Zn and Pt contents were synthesized by the anion-exchange method for the propane dehydrogenation reaction. To investigate the influence of Zn on the reaction performance and the catalyst structure, the prepared catalysts were characterized with several analytical techniques, including XRD , TEM, HRTEM, H 2 -TPD and CO pulse chemisorption . A good propane conversion (initially higher than 55% and averaging 45.2% over a period of 2 h) and propene selectivity (higher than 99%) were obtained experimentally with PtSn-Mg(3Zn)AlO at 550 °C. The results demonstrated that Pt provided the active sites and that Zn was a promoter. The HRTEM and CO pulse chemisorption results indicated that the addition of Zn to the PtSn-MgAlO catalyst can stabilize the dispersion of metal particles and thus inhibit the sintering of Pt particles. Furthermore, the activities of the used catalysts were almost recovered through reaction-regeneration cycles with the burning-off of coke during five cycles.

In this study, monodispersed NiRu nanocrystals with a diameter of 3 nm were synthesized at 90 °C via a tuning hot-inject method to lower the temperature of the organic phase synthesis of monodispersed nanomaterials. The key factor for the nanocrystalline formation of NiRu alloy nanocrystals was summarized in detail. Simultaneously, the synergistic effect of Ni and Ru in CO2 methanation was explored. Doping trace Ru can significantly improve the conversion rate of CO2 methanation and CH4 selectivity. The underlying mechanism was studied in detail via X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), temperature-programmed hydrogen reduction (H2-TPR) and desorption (H2-TPD) tests, and temperature-programmed desorption of CO2 (CO2-TPD). This study gives out a new way for the general synthesis of monodisperse nickel-based nanocrystals and provides a reference for the development and application of monodispersed nanoparticles for CO2 methanation.
