Abstract
- Thermal stability of carbon based materials is crucial to their catalytic performance in oxidative dehydrogenation at high temperature. This work aims at exploring the mechanism for B doping to improve thermal stability and catalytic performance of N, B co-doped carbon (HC-N-B) for oxidative dehydrogenation of propane using CO<subscript>2</subscript>, which was prepared by using humic acids (HAs) extracted from Sheng Li lignite. Porous carbon (HC) from humic acids has low thermal stability in CO<subscript>2</subscript> and N-doping resulted in the decreased thermal stability of HC. Interestingly, B doping HC-N showed very high thermal stability in CO<subscript>2</subscript> (almost no weight-loss). Thus, HC-N-B could be used as considerable stable carbon catalysts with high catalytic activity for oxidative dehydrogenation of propane using CO<subscript>2</subscript>. Compared to porous carbon (HC) and N-doping porous carbon (HC-N) from HAs, the HC-N-B could remain the high catalytic dehydrogenation activity in 5 h. It was found that B doping on the defect structure in carbon skeleton structure of the HC-N could greatly increase the thermal stability of surface defects of N-doped porous carbon in CO<subscript>2</subscript>, and molecular simulation calculation results further confirmed that the existence of C-N-B and BC<subscript>3</subscript> structure in the carbon skeleton defects could act as catalytic active sites in dehydrogenation reaction, which could slightly enhance the catalytic activity of the HC-N-B and largely improved its catalytic stability of the HC-N-B.
