An E. coli expression system was employed, and purification was performed with Immobilized Metal Affinity Column (IMAC). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was utilized to examine the morphology of NPs synthesized with an enriched protein sample and ImageJ was used to determine the average size to be 2.44 nm. The turnover frequency of fabricated NP from the purified protein was analyzed by a model Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions and determined to be 33,000 hr<sup>-1</sup>. This value is three times higher than the turnover frequency when crude lysate containing (Pd4)<sub>3</sub>-GFP was used during NP synthesis. This result shows that enrichment enhanced the catalytic activity of NP.展开更多

The activities of the fresh and hydrothermally aged PdTCZ catalysts were tested for total oxidation of CO and C3H8. For CO oxidation, the activity of either fresh or aged Pd/CZ catalysts decreased with the elevating of calcination temperature of CZ support, with a fresh catalyst calcined at 750 ℃ possessing the highest activity and hydrothermal stability. For C3H8 total oxidation, the activity of Pd/CZ catalysts could be improved by increasing the calcination temperature of support. However, the aged Pd/CZ catalysts showed higher activity than corresponding fresh Pd/CZ catalysts. The turnover frequency(TOF) over Pd/CZ catalyst for CO oxidation increased with increasing reduction ability of the catalysts, with a fresh catalyst calcined at 750 ℃ having the highest value(0.27 s^-1). However, the TOF of Pd/CZ catalyst for C3Hs total oxidation was mainly affected by the size of Pd particles, and large Pd particles possessed a higher activity, with the highest TOF value(0.96s^-1) obtained over an aged catalyst calcined at 1050 ℃.展开更多

It was found that the catalytic performance of the Bi0.02Co catalyst, which was prepared by coprecipitation method, can be effectively modified by potassium cations via impregnation. The optimized K0.01Bi0.02Co catalyst exhibited much higher activity compared with Bi0.02Co and K0.01Co for the reaction in feed gas 0.2% N2O/Ar, irrespective of the presence or absence of impurity gas(volume fraction) 5%02, 2%H20, 0.12%NO and 10%CO2. Characterization of the catalysts with H2 temperature programmed reduction(H2-TPR) and O2 temperature programmed desorption(O2-TPD) indicate that the Co--O bond in Bi0.02Co was weakened by the K+ doping, and hence the K0.01Bi0.02Co catalyst has much higher turnover frequency(TOF) than CO3O4 spinel and Bi0.02Co for the reaction.展开更多

It was found that the catalytic performance of the Bi0.02Co catalyst, which was prepared by coprecipitation method, can be effectively modified by potassium cations via impregnation.
