| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to convert current petrochemical processes to low carbon consumption type, three catalytic reaction systems were developed for (1) synthesizing propylene from bioethanol, (2) converting shale gas-derived ethane to ethene, then to butenes, and finally to propene via metathesis, and (3) changing energy-intensive reactions such as hydrogen peroxide and ammonia formations into energy saving types. In the first item, we developed Sc/In2O3 and clarified that the reaction proceeds through acetaldehyde and acetone. In the second item, we found a high catalytic activity of Ni/SiO2 and revealed that the reaction proceeds with the estimated mechanism. Pt-supported Pd catalysts were developed for H2O2 production and plasma electrode catalyst method for effective NH3 production.
