摘要: 光热催化是一种具有前景且节能的纤维素蒸汽重整(Cellu-SR)路线;然而,其实际应用受到不良副产物生成的严重限制——尤其是焦油。在此,我们报道了一种负载于Sr改性Al2O3上的Co纳米颗粒催化剂(Co/Sr2.5Al4.5),该催化剂在光热催化Cellu-SR中表现出优异性能。在光照下,该催化剂表现出很高的H2生成速率(5101.4 mmol g-1 h-1)和CO生成速率(3061.7 mmol g-1 h-1),同时副产物生成被显著抑制——最突出的是焦油选择性低于20%。系统物理化学表征表明,优异性能归因于Sr的引入显著增强了H2O吸附。由此产生的表面吸附H2O更容易解离生成活性氧物种(O*),可以高效地将纤维素衍生的热解中间体(CxHyOz)和碳物种(C*)氧化为合成气。更为关键的是,光照诱发了显著的光活化效应,削弱了表面Co-O键,促进了O*对C*的氧化,进一步促进了H2O高效参与重整。

Abstract: Photothermocatalysis represents a promising, energy-efficient route for cellulose steam reforming (Cellu-SR); however, its practical implementation is severely limited by the undesired formation of byproducts—particularly tar. Herein, we report a Co nanoparticle catalyst supported on Sr-modified Al2O3 (Co/Sr2.5Al4.5) that achieves exceptional performance in photothermocatalytic Cellu-SR. Under illumination, this catalyst delivers remarkably high production rates of H2 (5101.4 mmol g-1 h-1) and CO (3061.7 mmol g-1 h-1), accompanied by markedly suppressed byproduct formation—most notably, a tar selectivity below 20%. Systematic physicochemical characterizations reveal that the outstanding performance is attributed to the introduction of Sr significantly enhances the H2O adsorption. The resulting surface-adsorbed H2O readily dissociates to generate reactive oxygen species (O*), which efficiently oxidize cellulose-derived pyrolysis intermediates (CxHyOz) and carbon species (C*) to syngas. Crucially, illumination induces a pronounced photoactivation effect on weaking the surface Co-O bonds, facilitating the oxidation of C* by O* and promoting the active participation of H2O in the reforming.
