In this study, cobalt and lead based mixed oxide catalysts were tested for their soot oxidation ability. In addition to a mixed oxide formerly marketed as ceramic paint, a home made set was also prepared by incipient wetness impregnation of a cobalt oxide powder with a lead acetate solution and subsequent calcination. The materials investigated in this study were shown to decrease the peak combustion temperature of home made soot from 500 to 385 degrees C in air. Soot oxidation tests under inert (N-2) atmospheres revealed that the oxidation took place by using the lattice oxygen of the catalyst. Reaction temperature could be further decreased when these mixed oxide catalysts were impregnated with platinum. An optimum platinum loading was determined as 0.5 wt% based on the peak combustion temperature of the soot. The role of Pt was to assist the oxygen transfer from the gas phase to the lattice. It was observed that NO2 is a better oxidizing agent as compared to air whereas NO had hardly any activity against soot oxidation reaction. When the mixed oxide catalyst was impregnated with platinum, the peak combustion temperature was measured as 310 degrees C in the presence of NO, and air. The catalyst's unique performance was in terms of the rate of soot oxidation. Under the experimental conditions studied here, the soot oxidation was so facile that the oxygen in the gas phase was completely depleted. This stream of oxygen depleted and CO enriched gas phase can be used to reduce NO, in the presence of a downstream or a co-catalyst. (0 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Palladium(0) nanoparticles supported on polydopamine coated CoFe2O4 as highly active, magnetically isolable and reusable catalyst for hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane
Manna, Joydev; Akbayrak, Serdar; Özkar, Saim (Elsevier BV, 2017-07-05)
Palladium(0) nanoparticles supported on cobalt ferrite (Pd degrees/CoFe2O4) are found to be highly active catalyst, providing an unprecedented catalytic activity with a turnover frequency of 290 min(-1) in hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane at room temperature. However, the initial catalytic activity of Pd degrees/CoFe2O4 catalyst is not preserved after the reuse of the catalyst in hydrolytic dehydrogenation of ammonia borane. The stability of the catalyst is improved by using the pol...
Nanoceria supported rhodium(0) nanoparticles as catalyst for hydrogen generation from methanolysis of ammonia borane
Ozhava, Derya; Özkar, Saim (Elsevier BV, 2018-12-05)
This work reports the preparation and catalytic use of nanoceria supported rhodium(0) nanoparticles, Rh(0)/nanoCeO(2), as catalyst for hydrogen generation from the methanolysis of ammonia borane. Rh(0)/nanoCeO(2) was in situ formed from the reduction of rhodium(II) octanoate on the surface of nanoceria during the catalytic methanolysis of ammonia borane at room temperature. The results of analysis using PXRD, TEM, STEM-EDS, XPS, SEM, SEM-EDX, N-2 adsorption-desorption and ICP-OES reveal that rhodium(0) nano...
Revealing structure-activity relationships in chromium free high temperature shift catalysts promoted by earth abundant elements
Zhu, Minghui; Yalcin, Ozgen; Wachs, Israel E. (Elsevier BV, 2018-09-15)
Finding a replacement for the toxic hexavalent chromium oxide in commercial iron oxide-based high temperature water-gas shift (HT-WGS) catalyst is of current environmental concern. Previous studies in developing Cr-free catalysts mainly focus on ex-situ characterization on catalysts bulk structure. In the present study, CuO/MOx-Fe2O3 catalysts promoted by Si, Al, Cr or Mg were studied with XRD, in situ Raman, HS-LEIS, BET, transient (CO2)-O-16 -> (CO2)-O-18 isotopic switch, steady-state WGS 'activity test a...
Aqueous-phase hydrodechlorination of trichloroethylene over Pd-based swellable organically-modified silica (SOMS): Catalyst deactivation due to chloride anions
Çelik, Gökhan; Gunduz, Seval; Miller, Jeffrey T.; Edmiston, Paul L.; Ozkan, Umit S. (Elsevier BV, 2018-12-30)
Swellable-organically modified silica (SOMS) has been demonstrated to be an efficient catalyst scaffold for catalytic treatment of water contaminated with trichloroethylene (TCE). In this study, deactivation characteristics of Pd-incorporated SOMS for aqueous-phase hydrodechlorination (HDC) of TCE were investigated. Pd/SOMS catalysts were exposed to highly-concentrated chloride solutions (up to 1 M NaCl or 0.01 M HCl) to examine the deactivation resistant behavior of Pd/SOMS. The commonly used HDC catalyst ...
Effect of hydrogen ion-exchange capacity on activity of resin catalysts in tert-amyl-ethyl-ether synthesis
Boz, N; Doğu, Timur; Murtezaoglu, K; Dogu, G (Elsevier BV, 2004-08-10)
Activities of ion-exchange resin catalysts, having different hydrogen exchange capacities ranging between 5.1 and 1.3 meq H+/g, on the etherification reactions of 2M1B (2-methyl-1-butene) and 2M2B (2-methyl-2-butene) with ethanol were experimentally tested in a fixed bed reactor. These catalysts were prepared by the heat treatment of Amberlyst-15 catalysts at 220 degreesC at different durations of time and also by the synthesis of sulfonated styrene divinyl benzene cross-linked resins. Activity of these cat...
