Abstract
In recent times, chemical looping offered a sustainable alternative for upgrading light hydrocarbons into olefins. Olefins are valuable platform chemicals that are utilized for diverse applications. To close the wide shortfall in their global supply, intensified efforts are ongoing to develop on-purpose production technologies. Herein, we provide discussions on the emerging olefin production routes and chemical looping as a frontier concept in catalytic production of chemicals, especially light olefins. Moreover, we discuss the various rational strategies for designing and tuning of oxygen carriers with high catalytic activity and tailored selectivity to desired products. These strategies include creation of oxygen vacancies, controlled doping, synergistic metal-support interactions, regulating oxygen mobility, modulation of crystal structure, functionalization and controlled treatment. The insights presented aim to inspire the development of robust, stable, and efficient oxygen carriers, ensuring catalytic activity, selectivity, and prolonged operational stability.
期刊介绍:
The Chemical Record (TCR) is a "highlights" journal publishing timely and critical overviews of new developments at the cutting edge of chemistry of interest to a wide audience of chemists (2013 journal impact factor: 5.577). The scope of published reviews includes all areas related to physical chemistry, analytical chemistry, inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, polymer chemistry, materials chemistry, bioorganic chemistry, biochemistry, biotechnology and medicinal chemistry as well as interdisciplinary fields.
TCR provides carefully selected highlight papers by leading researchers that introduce the author''s own experimental and theoretical results in a framework designed to establish perspectives with earlier and contemporary work and provide a critical review of the present state of the subject. The articles are intended to present concise evaluations of current trends in chemistry research to help chemists gain useful insights into fields outside their specialization and provide experts with summaries of recent key developments.
