Abstract

Titania nanoligands were synthesized on an inert SiO 2 support by impregnation of Ti-isopropoxide alcohol solution and formed by calcination at 500°C. The active tungsten oxide component was then deposited on the TiO 2/SiO 2 supported. The CH 3-OH molecule could discriminate between different surface sites, specifically probing the surface reaction to dimethyl ether, DME-CH 3OCH 3, over surface acidic sites. Information on the conversion of CH 3OH to DME were established for different catalysts with CH 3OH-PR and steady-state CH 3-OH oxidation studies. This is an abstract of a paper presented at the 7th World Congress of Chemical Engineering (Glasgow, Scotland 7/10-14/2005).
