Abstract
Hydrophobic flexible zeolitic imidazole frameworks (ZIFs) represent reference microporous materials in the area of mechanical energy storage, conversion, and dissipation via non-wetting liquid intrusion-extrusion cycle. However, some of them exhibit drawbacks such as lack of stability, high intrusion pressure, or low intrusion volume that make them non-ideal materials to consider as candidates for real applications. In this work, we face these limitations by exploiting the hybrid ZIF concept. Concretely, a bimetallic SOD-like ZIF consisting of Co and Zn ions was synthesized and compared with Co-ZIF (ZIF-67) and Zn-ZIF (ZIF-8) showing for the first time that the hybrid ZIF combines the good stability of ZIF-8 with the higher water intrusion volume of ZIF-67. Moreover, it is shown that the hybrid-ZIF approach can be used to tune the intrusion/extrusion pressure, which is crucial for technological applications.

Performance of Cu/ZnO Nanosheets on Electrospun Al 2O 3 Nanofibers in CO 2 Catalytic Hydrogenation to Methanol and Dimethyl Ether. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 13:635. [PMID: 36839003 PMCID: PMC9967565 DOI: 10.3390/nano13040635] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2023] [Revised: 01/30/2023] [Accepted: 02/02/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
The synthesis of methanol and dimethyl ether (DME) from carbon dioxide (CO2) and green hydrogen (H2) offers a sustainable pathway to convert CO2 emissions into value-added products. This heterogeneous catalytic reaction often uses copper (Cu) catalysts due to their low cost compared with their noble metal analogs. Nevertheless, improving the activity and selectivity of these Cu catalysts for these products is highly desirable. In the present study, a new architecture of Cu- and Cu/Zn-based catalysts supported on electrospun alumina nanofibers were synthesized. The catalysts were tested under various reaction conditions using high-throughput equipment to highlight the role of the hierarchical fibrous structure on the reaction activity and selectivity. The Cu or Cu/ZnO formed a unique structure of nanosheets, covering the alumina fiber surface. This exceptional morphology provides a large surface area, up to ~300 m2/g, accessible for reaction. Maximal production of methanol (~1106 gmethanolKgCu-1∙h-1) and DME (760 gDMEKgCu-1∙h-1) were obtained for catalysts containing 7% wt. Cu/Zn with a weight ratio of 2.3 Zn to Cu (at 300 °C, 50 bar). The promising results in CO2 hydrogenation to methanol and DME obtained here point out the significant advantage of nanofiber-based catalysts in heterogeneous catalysis.

Abstract
The development of the future French and European bioeconomies will involve developing new green chemical processes in which catalytic transformations are key. The VAALBIO team (valorization of alkanes and biomass) of the UCCS laboratory (Unité de Catalyse et Chimie du Solide) are working on various catalytic processes, either developing new catalysts and/or designing the whole catalytic processes. Our research is focused on both the fundamental and applied aspects of the processes. Through this review paper, we demonstrate the main topics developed by our team focusing mostly on oxygen- and hydrogen-related processes as well as on green hydrogen production and hybrid catalysis. The social impacts of the bioeconomy are also discussed applying the concept of the institutional compass.
