The conceptual linguistic apparatus and terminology are discussed. The study of verbal responses obtained from Russian –speaking informants (gays and lesbians) as a linguistic construal of their world is analyzed
Role of Sn in the Regeneration of Pt/γ-Al2O3 Light Alkane Dehydrogenation Catalysts
Alumina-supported Pt is one of the major industrial catalysts for light alkane dehydrogenation. This catalyst loses activity during reaction, with coke formation often considered as the reason for deactivation. As we show in this study, the amount and nature of carbon deposits do not directly correlate with the loss of activity. Rather, it is the transformation of subnanometer Pt species into larger Pt nanoparticles that appears to be responsible for the loss of catalytic activity. Surprisingly, a portion of the Sn remains atomically dispersed on the alumina surface in the spent catalyst and helps in the redispersion of the Pt. In the absence of Sn on the alumina support, the larger Pt nanoparticles formed during reaction are not redispersed during oxidative regeneration. It is known that Sn is added as a promoter in the industrial catalyst to help in achieving high propene selectivity and to minimize coke formation. This work shows that an important role of Sn is to help in the regeneration of Pt, by providing nucleation sites on the alumina surface. Aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy helps to provide unique insights into the operating characteristics of an industrially important catalyst by demonstrating the role of promoter elements, such as Sn, in the oxidative regeneration of Pt on γ-Al2O3
Catalytic dehydrogenation of light alkanes on metals and metal oxides
A study is conducted to demonstrate catalytic dehydrogenation of light alkanes on metals and metal oxides. The study provides a complete overview of the materials used to catalyze this reaction, as dehydrogenation for the production of light olefins has become extremely relevant. Relevant factors, such as the specific nature of the active sites, as well as the effect of support, promoters, and reaction feed on catalyst performance and lifetime, are discussed for each catalytic Material. The study compares different catalysts in terms of the reaction mechanism and deactivation pathways and catalytic performance. The duration of the dehydrogenation step depends on the heat content of the catalyst bed, which decreases rapidly due to the endothermic nature of the reaction. Part of the heat required for the reaction is introduced to the reactors by preheating the reaction feed, additional heat being provided by adjacent reactors that are regenerating the coked catalysts
Role of Sn in the Regeneration of Pt/γ-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> Light Alkane Dehydrogenation Catalysts
Alumina-supported
Pt is one of the major industrial catalysts for
light alkane dehydrogenation. This catalyst loses activity during
reaction, with coke formation often considered as the reason for deactivation.
As we show in this study, the amount and nature of carbon deposits
do not directly correlate with the loss of activity. Rather, it is
the transformation of subnanometer Pt species into larger Pt nanoparticles
that appears to be responsible for the loss of catalytic activity.
Surprisingly, a portion of the Sn remains atomically dispersed on
the alumina surface in the spent catalyst and helps in the redispersion
of the Pt. In the absence of Sn on the alumina support, the larger
Pt nanoparticles formed during reaction are not redispersed during
oxidative regeneration. It is known that Sn is added as a promoter
in the industrial catalyst to help in achieving high propene selectivity
and to minimize coke formation. This work shows that an important
role of Sn is to help in the regeneration of Pt, by providing nucleation
sites on the alumina surface. Aberration-corrected scanning transmission
electron microscopy helps to provide unique insights into the operating
characteristics of an industrially important catalyst by demonstrating
the role of promoter elements, such as Sn, in the oxidative regeneration
of Pt on γ-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>
Platinum-promoted Ga/Al₂O₃ as highly active, selective, and stable catalyst for the dehydrogenation of propane
A novel catalyst material for the selective dehydrogenation of propane is presented. The catalyst consists of 1000 ppm Pt, 3 wt% Ga, and 0.25 wt% K supported on alumina. We observed a synergy between Ga and Pt, resulting in a highly active and stable catalyst. Additionally, we propose a bifunctional active phase, in which coordinately unsaturated Ga3+ species are the active species and where Pt functions as a promoter
