Regulating CeO2 morphologies on the catalytic oxidation of toluene at lower temperature: A study of the structure-activity relationship

Youcai Zhu et al.

Summary: Developing efficient and stable non-noble metal catalysts for VOCs oxidation is crucial in controlling air pollution. In this study, different morphologies of CeO2 catalysts were prepared and the CeO2 nanoparticles exhibited the highest efficiency, water resistance, stability, and regeneration ability. In situ DRIFTS combined with DFT were used to understand the oxidation behavior of toluene over the CeO2 nanoparticles catalyst, and it was found that the ring-opening reaction is a rate-controlling step. This study provides a new strategy for exploring high-performance catalysts for VOCs oxidation and other pollutant treatments.

Adsorption, thermal conversion, and catalytic hydrogenation of acrolein on Cu surfaces

Mindika Tilan Nayakasinghe et al.

Summary: The adsorption, thermal chemistry, and catalytic hydrogenation of acrolein on copper model surfaces were studied using surface-science techniques, quantum mechanics calculations, and catalytic kinetic measurements. The adsorption process involved the carbonyl oxygen atom and the C=C bond, and thermal activation resulted in the production of ketene and propene. Hydrogenation was not possible under vacuum, but multiple hydrogenation products were detected after surface pre-dosing with atomic hydrogen. Catalytic hydrogenation under atmospheric pressures was slow.

Green synthesis of Tungsten-doped CeO2 catalyst for selective catalytic reduction of NOx with NH3 using starch bio-template

Zhi-bo Xiong et al.

Summary: A novel tungsten-doped CeO2 catalyst was fabricated using sweet potato starch as a bio-template via the spread self-combustion (SSC) method. The doping of tungsten refines the pore diameter of CeO2 and restrains the growth of cubic CeO2 crystal. However, annealing at 700 degrees C promotes the growth of cubic CeO2 crystal and the formation of Ce4W9O33 crystal, instead of amorphous tungsten species, compared to catalyst calcined at 550 degrees C. Additionally, it was found that the doping of tungsten increases the concentration of adsorbed oxygen on the surface of CeO2-550 and enhances the reducibility of the surface oxygen, ultimately affecting the catalytic performance.
