Highly efficient conversion of low-carbon molecules

New zeolite catalytic materials were designed and developed for heterogeneous catalytic fields such as  conversion of low carbon molecules (CH4, CO2, CO), dehydrogenation of alkanes, oxidation, isomerization and plastic degradation. The team proposed the concept of molecular fence to build an efficient catalytic system for methane oxidation to achieve efficient conversion of methane to methanol (Science 2020, 367, 193-197); Isolated boron sites were constructed in pure silicon MFI zeolite to realize the efficient conversion of propane dehydrogenation to propylene (Science, 2021, 372, 76-80); Through the micro-balance regulation of the catalyst surface to promote the desorption of water molecules, resulting in a high FTO efficiency (Science, 2022 377, 406-410).

 

针对能源小分子转化(CH4CO2CO)、烷烃脱氢、氧化、异构化以及塑料降解等多相催化领域设计开发新型沸石催化材料。团队提出分子围栏概念,构筑甲烷氧化高效催化体系,实现甲烷高效转化为甲醇(Science 2020, 367, 193-197);在纯硅MFI沸石中构筑孤立的硼中心,通过杂原子活性中心和分子筛硅骨架及配位基团的高效协同,实现丙烷脱氢高效制丙烯(Science, 2021, 372, 76-80);通过催化剂表面微平衡调控,促进催化剂表面水分子脱附,实现FTO效率翻倍(Science, 2022 377, 406-410).
