Abstract
![]()
Improving both the extent of metallic Co nanoparticle
(Co NP) formation
and their stability is necessary to ensure good catalytic performance,
particularly for Fischer–Tropsch synthesis (FTS). Here, we
observe how the presence of surface oxygen vacancies (Ovac) on TiO2 can readily reduce individual Co3O4 NPs directly into CoO/Co0 in the freshly
prepared sample by using a combination of X-ray photoemission electron
microscopy (X-PEEM) coupled with soft X-ray absorption spectroscopy.
The Ovac are particularly good at reducing the edge of
the NPs as opposed to their center, leading to smaller particles being
more reduced than larger ones. We then show how further reduction
(and Ovac consumption) is achieved during heating in H2/syngas (H2 + CO) and reveal that Ovac also prevents total reoxidation of Co NPs in syngas, particularly
the smallest (∼8 nm) particles, thus maintaining the presence
of metallic Co, potentially improving catalyst performance.

Enhancing electronic metal support interaction (EMSI) over Pt/TiO 2 for efficient catalytic wet air oxidation of phenol in wastewater. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 426:128088. [PMID: 34959211 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2021.128088] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2021] [Revised: 12/10/2021] [Accepted: 12/13/2021] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Phenol is one of the major hazardous organic compounds in industrial wastewater. In this work, a highly active Pt/TiO2 catalyst for catalytic wet air oxidation (CWAO) of phenol was obtained by supporting pre-synthesized Pt on TiO2. During the followed hydrogen reduction, strong hydrogen spillover occurred without the migration of TiO2 onto Pt. The reduced support then enhanced the electron transfer from TiO2 to Pt, increasing the percentage of partially negative Pt (Ptδ-), which has been confirmed by XPS. The strong EMSI made the obtained catalyst far more active than Pt/TiO2 prepared by impregnation method. The electron-enriched Pt/TiO2 achieved total organic carbon (TOC) conversion of 88.8% and TOF 149 h-1 at 100 °C and 2 MPa O2, while conventional Pt/TiO2 gave TOC conversion of 39.5% and TOF 41 h-1 for CWAO of phenol. Our work indicates that the enhancement of EMSI between metal and support can be an effective approach to develop highly active catalysts for phenol treatment.

Abstract
Synthesis of TiO2 nanoparticles with tunable shape and crystal phase has attracted considerable attention for the design of highly efficient heterogeneous catalysts. Tailoring the shape of TiO2, in the crystal phases of anatase, rutile, brookite and TiO2(B), allows tuning of the atomic configurations on the dominantly exposed facets for maximizing the active sites and regulating the reaction route towards a specific channel for achieving high selectivity. Moreover, the shape and crystal phase of TiO2 nanoparticles alter their interactions with metal species, which are commonly termed as strong metal-support interactions involving interfacial strain and charge transfer. On the other hand, metal particles, clusters and single atoms interact differently with TiO2, because of the variation of the electronic structure, while the surface of TiO2 determines the interfacial bonding via a geometric effect. The dynamic behavior of the metal-titania interfaces, driven by the chemisorption of the reactive molecules at elevated temperatures, also plays a decisive role in elaborating the structure-reactivity relationship.
