Desorption,-from catalyst surface

One of the earliest studies of the reaction of C2H4 with D2, in which a full mass spectrometric analysis of the products was performed, used a nickel wire as catalyst [115,116]. Some typical results are shown in Fig. 11. These results showed that ethylene exchange was rapid and the deutero-ethylenes are probably formed in a stepwise process in which only one deuterium atom is introduced during each residence of the ethylene molecule on the surface, that is there is a high probability of ethylene desorption from the surface. From Fig. 11(a) it can also be seen that the major initial products are ethane-d0 and ethane-d,. This is consistent with a mechanism in which hydrogen transfer occurs by the reaction... [Pg.32]

The reaction of photo-induced sulphur desorption from the surfaces of the metal oxide-supported (rutile and anatase Ti02, SrTiOs, ZnO, Fe203 and Sn02) Au nanoparticles in water at room temperature has also been studied [209]. It was found to be driven by an upward shift of the Fermi energy of the metal oxide-loaded Au nanoparticles with irradiation. It has also been demonstrated that this phenomenon is applicable to the low-temperature cleaning of sulphur-poisoned metal catalysts. [Pg.394]

The mechanism of the catalyzed shift reaction for both copper- and iron-based catalysts remains controversial. Two types of mechanism have been proposed adsorptive and regenerative. In the former, the reactants adsorb on the catalyst surface, where they react to form surface intermediates such as formates, followed by decomposition to products and desorption from the surface. In the regenerative mechanism, on the other hand, the surface undergoes successive oxidation and reduction cycles by water and carbon monoxide, respectively to form the corresponding hydrogen and carbon dioxide products of the WGS reaction. [Pg.468]

Desorption of product molecules from catalyst surface. [Pg.153]

In the time or temporal domain, periodicity in operation is incorporated to realize all four principles of PI. A combination of adsorption-reaction-desorption on catalyst surface by periodic forcing of temperatures and pressures demonstrates the application of first principle. Oscillatory baffled flow reactor enhances uniformity, and illustrates the second PI principle. The application examples for third and fourth PI principles are pulsation of feed in trickle bed reactors enhancing the mass transfer rates, and flow reversal in reversed flow reactors shifting the equilibrium beyond limitations respectively. Switching from batch to continuous processing also result in realization of second and third PI principles. [Pg.7]

The sequence of events in a surface-catalyzed reaction comprises (1) diffusion of reactants to the surface (usually considered to be fast) (2) adsorption of the reactants on the surface (slow if activated) (3) surface diffusion of reactants to active sites (if the adsorption is mobile) (4) reaction of the adsorbed species (often rate-determining) (5) desorption of the reaction products (often slow) and (6) diffusion of the products away from the surface. Processes 1 and 6 may be rate-determining where one is dealing with a porous catalyst [197]. The situation is illustrated in Fig. XVIII-22 (see also Ref. 198 notice in the figure the variety of processes that may be present). [Pg.720]

Subsequently one plots InNo vs tHe and extrapolates to tHe=0. This plot provides the 02 desorption kinetics at the chosen temperature T. The intersect with the N0 axis gives the desired catalyst surface area NG (Fig. 4.8) from which AG can also be computed. More precisely NG is the maximum reactive oxygen uptake of the catalyst-electrode but this value is sufficient for catalyst-electrode characterization. [Pg.120]

Products escape from the surface of the catalyst. This step is desorption. [Pg.1107]

Several spectroscopic, microscopic and diffraction techniques are used to investigate catalysts. As Fig. 4.2 illustrates, such techniques are based on some type of excitation (in-going arrows in Fig. 4.2) to which the catalyst responds (symbolized by the outgoing arrows). For example, irradiating a catalyst with X-ray photons generates photoelectrons, which are employed in X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) -one of the most useful characterization tools. One can also heat a spent catalyst and look at what temperatures reaction intermediates and products desorb from the surface (temperature-programmed desorption, TPD). [Pg.130]

Temperature-programmed desorption of mesitylene shows a marked difference to the catalysts prepared on MgCl2 surfaces. The spectrum contains only one desorption peak at aroimd 250 K. Due to the similar desorption temperature to the peak observed for MgCl2-based films, this peak was assigned to desorption from low coordinated or defect sites [118]. [Pg.137]

Kim and Somorjai have associated the different tacticity of the polymer with the variation of adsorption sites for the two systems as titrated by mesitylene TPD experiments. As discussed above, the TiCl >,/Au system shows just one mesitylene desorption peak which was associated with desorption from low coordinated sites, while the TiCl c/MgClx exhibits two peaks assigned to regular and low coordinated sites, respectively [23]. Based on this coincidence, Kim and Somorjai claim that isotactic polymer is produced at the low-coordinated site while atactic polymer is produced at the regular surface site. One has to bear in mind, however, that a variety of assumptions enter this interpretation, which may or may not be vahd. Nonetheless it is an interesting and important observation which should be confirmed by further experiments, e.g., structural investigations of the activated catalyst. From these experiments it is clear that the degree of tacticity depends on catalyst preparation and most probably on the surface structure of the catalyst however, the atomistic correlation between structure and tacticity remains to be clarified. [Pg.143]

Cavitation induced turbulence also enhances the rates of the desorption of intermediate products from the catalyst active sites and helps in continuous cleaning of the catalyst surface. [Pg.60]

At the beginning stage of dehydrogenation, the substrate organic hydride is adsorbed onto the catalyst surface from the liquid phase directly and easily. Catalytic reaction processes will succeed it, until the surface sites are filled with the adsorbed reactant and products. Once product desorption starts to form and grow a bubble, product readsorption becomes unfavorable due to the increment of translational entropy of the product molecule in the bubble, if compared with that in the solution, shifting the adsorption equilibrium for the product and suppressing its effect of rate retardation. [Pg.471]
