✦ Synopsis


A heterogeneous catalyst, TiO 2 supported on Al 2 O 3 was used for the synthesis methyl propyl carbonate (MPC) by the transesterification of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) and propanol. The morphological and chemical states of titanium species in TiO 2 /Al 2 O 3 were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and CO 2 -TPD, respectively. The effect of reaction conditions, such as temperature, gaseous hourly space velocity (GHSV), and the molar ratio of propanol/DMC on the reaction were discussed. The results showed that under the optimized reaction conditions, the reaction temperature 403 K, the molar ratio of propanol/DMC of 0.5:1, and a GHSV 360 h -1 , the conversion of DMC was 62%, the yields of MPC was 51%.

A series of calcium-modified alumina-supported cobalt catalysts were prepared with a two-step impregnation method, and the effect of calcium on the catalytic performances of the catalysts for the partial oxidation of methane to syngas (CO and H 2 ) was investigated at 750 8C. Also, the catalysts wer
