Understanding the role of tungsten on Pt/CeO_(2)for vinyl chloride catalytic combustion

摘要

Spherical CeO_(2)synthesized by the hydrothermal process was used as support to prepare Pt/WO_(3)/CeO_(2),and the effects of tungsten(W)contents on activity,stability and polychlorinated by-products were investigated to understand the role of W for vinyl chloride(VC)catalytic oxidation.The introduction of12 wt%W to Pt/CeO_(2)(P12 WC)exhibits the highest catalytic activity with 90%conversion of VC at 250℃,meanwhile the stability improves and the polychlorinated by-products in the tail gas significantly decrease due to the removal of dissociated Cl species in the formation of HCl.The beneficial effects of W on Pt/CeO_(2)are closely related to the chemical state of Pt,redox and surface acid sites distribution.The doped W not only makes Pt disperse evenly on the support with the high valence,but also weakens the interaction between Pt and CeO_(2)by the formation of Pt-O-W and Pt-O-W-O-Ce species,which facilitates oxygen mobility.In addition,the modification of W species also significantly increases the surface acidity amount and changes the distribution of acid sites.
