摘要/Abstract

摘要： TiO₂ modified Al₂O₃ binary oxide was prepared by a wet-impregnation method and used as the support for ruthenium catalyst. The catalytic performance of Ru/TiO₂-Al₂O₃ catalyst in CO₂ methanation reaction was investigated. Compared with Ru/Al₂O₃ catalyst, the Ru/TiO₂-Al₂O₃ catalytic system exhibited a much higher activity in CO₂ methanation reaction. The reaction rate over Ru/TiO₂-Al₂O₃ was 0.59 mol CO₂·(g Ru)^-1·h^-1, 3.1 times higher than that on Ru/Al₂O₃ [0.19 mol CO₂·(g Ru)^-1·h^-1]. The effect of TiO₂ content and TiO₂-Al₂O₃ calcination temperature on catalytic performance was addressed. The corresponding structures of each catalyst were characterized by means of H2-TPR, XRD, and TEM. Results indicated that the averaged particle size of the Ru on TiO₂-Al₂O₃ support is 2.8 nm, smaller than that on Al₂O₃ support of 4.3 nm. Therefore, we conclude that the improved activity over Ru/TiO₂-Al₂O₃ catalyst is originated from the smaller particle size of ruthenium resulting from a strong interaction between Ru and the rutile-TiO₂ support, which hindered the aggregation of Ru nanoparticles.
