Disclosed are catalysts capable of catalyzing the dry reforming of methane. The catalysts have a core-shell structure with the shell surrounding the core. The shell has a redox-metal oxide phase that includes a metal dopant incorporated into the lattice framework of the redox-metal oxide phase. An active metal(s) is deposited on the surface of the shell.

Proposed are an unsupported metallic catalyst for a selective ring-opening (SRO) reaction and a method of using the same catalyst, wherein the catalyst contains nickel (Ni), molybdenum (Mo), and tungsten (W).

The present invention relates to a method for producing large-diameter, low-density carbon nanotubes. The method uses a catalyst containing spherical -alumina that is capable of controlling the growth of carbon nanotubes without deteriorating the quality of the carbon nanotubes. The use of the catalyst makes the carbon nanotubes highly dispersible.

The present invention clarifies the characteristic of the hygroscopicity of the catalyst for producing acrylic acid and finds out a relationship between the water amount of the catalyst and the catalytic performance as the catalyst for producing acrylic acid, and provides an excellent catalyst. Provided is a catalyst for producing acrylic acid, which contains molybdenum and vanadium as essential active components, in which the amount of water contained in the catalyst is 0.01 mass % or more and 0.53 mass % or less.

Oxidative dehydrogenation is an alternative to the energy extensive steam cracking process presently used for the production of olefins from paraffins, but has not been implemented commercially partially due to the unstable nature of hydrocarbon/oxygen mixtures, and partially due to the cost involved in the construction of new facilities. An oxidative dehydrogenation chemical complex designed to reduce costs by including integration of an oxygen separation module that also addresses safety concerns and reduces emission of greenhouse gases is described.

Disclosed herein is a catalyst for producing biodiesel, including a carrier having water resistance and an active component supported on the carrier and used in a hydrotreating reaction or a decarboxylation reaction. Since the catalyst for producing biodiesel includes a carrier having strong water resistance, the deactivation of the catalyst due to the water produced through a process of producing HBD can be prevented, thus remarkably improving the long term stability of a catalyst.

The present disclosure provides a multi-metallic catalyst system comprising at least one support, and at least one promoter component and an active component comprising at least two metals uniformly dispersed on the support. The present disclosure also provides a process for preparing the multi-metallic catalyst system. Further, the present disclosure provides a process for preparing upgraded fuel from biomass. The process is carried out in two steps. In the first step, a biomass slurry is prepared and is heated in the presence of hydrogen and a multi-metallic catalyst that comprises at least one support, at least one promoter component, and an active component comprising at least two metals to obtain crude biofuel as an intermediate product. The intermediate product obtained in the first step is then cooled and filtered to obtain a filtered intermediate product. In the second step, the filtered intermediate product is hydrogenated in the presence of the multi-metallic catalyst to obtain the upgraded fuel. The fuel obtained from the process of the present disclosure is devoid of heteroatoms such as oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur.
