Abstract
Glycerol steam reforming is one of the potential method for hydrogen production is. Nanocomposites based on transition metal phyllosilicates may serve as promising candidates for the role of catalysts in this process. In the present work, Ni- Co-phyllosilicates with a pecoraite-like structure were studied. For the first time, a monometallic Co-catalyst (x = 1) and a bimetallic Ni-Co-catalyst (x = 0.4) were obtained and compared in a catalytic reaction of steam reforming of glycerol with a monometallic Ni-catalyst (x = 0) based on a nanotubular phyllosilicate with the general stoichiometric formula (Cox,Ni1-x)3Si2O5(OH)4. A series of physicochemical methods revealed differences in crystalline and porous structure, morphology of phyllosilicates, stability of porosity during reduction, and size and localization of metal nanoparticles. The catalysts were metal particles with dimensions of 9.6 ± 0.1 nm (x = 0), 11.2 ± 0.1 nm (x = 0.4), and 18.8 ± 0.4 nm (x = 1), dispersed in a phyllosilicate matrix as the support. For the sample with x = 0.4, the metal particles were a homogeneous NiCo alloy. This sample demonstrated a synergistic effect, which was manifested in an increase in glycerol conversion and hydrogen yield over time-on-stream at 600 °C as well as in higher stability and a lower tendency to coking in compared to monometallic samples. The identified features of the studied systems (increase in the homogeneity of the NiCo alloy during the test, oxidation and blocking of Co nanoparticles inside the phyllosilicate channels) made it possible to explain the observed differences in the catalytic behavior in the steam conversion of glycerol.
期刊介绍:
Microporous and Mesoporous Materials covers novel and significant aspects of porous solids classified as either microporous (pore size up to 2 nm) or mesoporous (pore size 2 to 50 nm). The porosity should have a specific impact on the material properties or application. Typical examples are zeolites and zeolite-like materials, pillared materials, clathrasils and clathrates, carbon molecular sieves, ordered mesoporous materials, organic/inorganic porous hybrid materials, or porous metal oxides. Both natural and synthetic porous materials are within the scope of the journal.
Topics which are particularly of interest include:
All aspects of natural microporous and mesoporous solids
The synthesis of crystalline or amorphous porous materials
The physico-chemical characterization of microporous and mesoporous solids, especially spectroscopic and microscopic
The modification of microporous and mesoporous solids, for example by ion exchange or solid-state reactions
All topics related to diffusion of mobile species in the pores of microporous and mesoporous materials
Adsorption (and other separation techniques) using microporous or mesoporous adsorbents
Catalysis by microporous and mesoporous materials
Host/guest interactions
Theoretical chemistry and modelling of host/guest interactions
All topics related to the application of microporous and mesoporous materials in industrial catalysis, separation technology, environmental protection, electrochemistry, membranes, sensors, optical devices, etc.
