A method for preparing acrylic acid, more specifically, to a method for preparing acrylic acid under a neutral condition at high yield in a short time without using a base, unlike the prior art in which a base is essentially used. The acrylic acid is produced using a supported catalyst having a specific composition when preparing acrylic acid by oxidation of allyl alcohol. Particularly, the preparation method can recover acrylic acid rather than acrylic acid salt as a final product, and thus has an advantage that the overall process cost can be reduced by eliminating essential processes in the prior art, such as ion exchange after the acidification process required for the conversion of acrylic acid salt to acrylic acid.

A photocatalyst partial oxidation of methanol reforming process can be rapidly started via the use of a photocatalytic reaction at a reaction temperature below 150 C., and hydrogen having a low carbon monoxide content is produced at a high methanol conversion rate.

An efficient photocatalyst nanocomposite comprising reduced graphene oxide, noble metal, and a metal oxide prepared by a one-step method that utilizes date seed extract as a reducing and nanoparticle determining size agent. The photocatalyst of the invention is a more effective sunlight photocatalyst than that prepared by traditional method in the photo decomposition of organic compounds in contaminated water.

A catalyst for producing light aromatics with heavy aromatics, a method for preparing the catalyst, and a use thereof are disclosed. The catalyst comprises a carrier, component (1), and component (2), wherein component (1) comprises one metal element or more metal elements selected from a group consisting of Pt, Pd, Ir, and Rh, and component (2) comprises one metal element or more metal elements selected from a group consisting of IA group, IIA group, IIIA group, IVA group, IB group, IIB group, IIIB group, IVB group, VB group, VIB group, VIIB group, La group, and VIII group other than Pt, Pd, Ir, and Rh. The catalyst can be used for producing light aromatics with heavy aromatics, whereby heavy aromatics hydrogenation selectivity and light aromatics yield can be improved.

The present invention relates to the synthesis and application of gold catalysts supported in mixed CuO/ZnO/Al.sub.2O.sub.3 oxides prepared on the basis of their corresponding solids with a hydrotalcite structure as catalysts in the water-gas shift reaction, for use in fuel processors coupled to fuel cells.

Electric heaters comprising corrosion resistant metals (CRM), and exhaust gas treatment systems incorporating the same, are provided. Exhaust gas treatment systems include selective catalytic reduction devices (SCR) disposed downstream from reductant injectors. Electric heaters can be disposed downstream from reductant injectors, and optionally contiguous with or incorporated with a catalytic composition of the SCR. CRMs resist corrosion to reductant, which includes t ammonia and/or nitrogen-rich substances capable of decomposing into ammonia, such as urea. CRMs include aluminum, chromium, iron, and one or more stabilizers. CRMs can include about 5.0% to about 7.25% aluminum, about 15% to about 25% chromium, up to about 0.30% stabilizers, and a balance comprising iron. Stabilizers can include hafnium, yttrium, and zirconium. Stabilizers can include about 0.001% to about 0.11% yttrium and about 0.001% to about 0.11% Hf.

The present invention relates to a catalyst for aminating a polyether polyol and preparation method thereof and a method of preparing a polyetheramine using the catalyst. The catalyst has active components and a carrier. The active components are Ni, Cu, and Pd. The method of preparing the catalyst comprises the following steps: using a metal solution or a metal melt impregnated carrier, obtaining a catalyst precursor; and drying and calcinating the obtained catalyst precursor, so as to obtain a catalyst. By introducing the active component Pd in the catalyst, the present invention clearly improves selectivity of an amination catalyst with respect to a preaminated product, and increases raw material conversion rate.
