摘要
The mesoporous Co<sub>3sub>O<sub>4sub> supported catalysts on Ce-M-O (M聽=聽Mn, Zr, Sn, Fe and Ti) composites were prepared by surfactant-assisted co-precipitation with subsequent incipient wetness impregnation (SACP-IWI) method. The catalysts were employed to eliminate trace CO from H<sub>2sub>-rich gases through CO preferential oxidation (CO PROX) reaction. Effects of M type in Ce-M-O support, atomic ratio of Ce/(Ce聽+聽Mn), Co<sub>3sub>O<sub>4sub> loading and the presence of H<sub>2sub>O and CO<sub>2sub> in feed were investigated. Among the studied Ce-M-O composites, the Ce-Mn-O is a superior carrier to the others for supported Co<sub>3sub>O<sub>4sub> catalysts in CO PROX reaction. Co<sub>3sub>O<sub>4sub>/Ce<sub>0.9sub>Mn<sub>0.1sub>O<sub>2sub> with 25聽wt.%loading exhibits excellent catalytic properties and the 100%CO conversion can be achieved at 125-200聽掳C. Even with 10 vol.%H<sub>2sub>O and 10 vol.%CO<sub>2sub> in feed, the complete CO transformation can still be maintained at a wide temperature range of 190-225聽掳C. Characterization techniques containing N<sub>2sub> adsorption/desorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), H<sub>2sub> temperature-programmed reduction (H<sub>2sub>-TPR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were employed to reveal the relationship between the nature and catalytic performance of the developed catalysts. Results show that the specific surface area doesn鈥檛 obviously affect the catalytic performance of the supported cobalt catalysts, but the right M type in carrier with appropriate amount effectively improves the Co<sub>3sub>O<sub>4sub> dispersibility and the redox behavior of the catalysts. The large reducible Co<sup>3+sup> amount and the high tolerance to reduction atmosphere resulted from the interfacial interaction between Co<sub>3sub>O<sub>4sub> and Ce-Mn support may significantly contribute to the high catalytic performance for CO PROX reaction, even in the simulated syngas.
