Abstract:
Mn-promoted NiMgAl mixed-oxide (NiMnx-LDO, x = 0, 5, 10, 15) catalysts derived from hydrotalcite were synthesized using co-precipitation for CO2 hydrogenation to synthetic natural gas. By regulating Mn contents, NiMn5-LDO delivered the most excellent catalytic performance, being about 2 times higher than that of undoped NiMn0-LDO catalyst (TOF of NiMn5-LDO and NiMn0-LDO: 0.61 s-1 vs 0.31 s-1 @ 240 oC). Through extensive characterization, it was found that Mn dopants promoted the reduction of bulk NiO through tuning the interaction between Ni and Mg(Mn)AlOx support. A high surface ratio of Ni0/Ni2+ was achieved over NiMn5-LDO. Furthermore, the surface basicity strength was tailored by Mn dopants. With 5 wt% of Mn, NiMn5-LDO catalyst showed a stronger medium-strength basicity and higher capacity of CO2 adsorption than others. Particularly, TOF indicates a good correlation with medium-strength basicity over NiMnx-LDO catalysts. The strong metal-support interaction originated from the hydrotalcite structure kept nickel uniformly dispersed, endowing to the improved catalytic performance.
