Efficient CH oxidation to C1/C2 oxygenates over cluster-dispersing Rh decorated ZSM-5.

Crafting highly dispersed active metal sites on catalysts is an optimal method for improving the catalytic reactivity and stability, as it would improve atomic utilization efficiency, enhance reactant adsorption and activation ability through unique geometric and electronic properties. In this study, two synthesis methods were employed (ammonia evaporation (AE) and the impregnation method (IM)) to load Rh species onto the ZSM-5 support in order to attain tunable dispersivity, during which a 1.25-fold increase in the total yield of liquid oxygenated products (32 433.

Fully upgrade bamboo biomass into three multifunctional products through biphasic γ-valerolactone and aqueous phosphoric acid pretreatment.

In this manuscript, three components of lignocellulosic biomass were obtained by deconstructing bamboo with γ-valerolactone-HO biphasic system, and the delignification rate of 80.92 % was achieved at 120 °C for 90 min. Lignin nanospheres with diameters ranging from 75 nm to 2 um could be customized by varying the self-assembly rate.

CuO nanoparticles and Cu-OH motif decorated ZSM-5 for selective methane oxidation to methyl oxygenates.

Copper decorated zeolites are promising candidates for the partial oxidation of methane to generate methanol with elevated energy density, nevertheless, the modulation and possible synergism between multiple Cu active sites still need to be delved in depth. Here, ZSM-5 catalysts with modulated Cu motifs were proposed using copper oxysalts as precursors through a calcination process. By modifying the contents of copper oxysalts precursors, the Cu active sites varied, and a unique M shaped trend of CHOH productivity emerged.
