Stable isotope equilibria in the dihydrogen-water-methane-ethane-propane system. Part 2: Experimental determination of hydrogen isotopic equilibrium for ethane-H2 from 30 to 200 °C and propane-H2 from 75 to 200 °C

The stable isotopic compositions of light n-alkanes, including methane, ethane, and propane, are often used to identify the sources and thermal maturity of natural gas samples. Though stable isotopic compositions of these molecules are commonly assumed to be controlled by kinetic isotope effects, recent studies have proposed both carbon and hydrogen isotopic equilibrium may also occur in some samples. Assessing whether samples are in isotopic equilibrium requires knowledge of light alkane equilibrium fractionation factors over geologically relevant temperatures for formation and storage (up to ∼300 °C). In this study, we report experimental results of hydrogen isotopic equilibrium between ethane and H2 from 30 to 200 °C and propane and H2 from 75 to 200 °C. We compare these results with high-level theoretical calculations and provide a preferred polynomial fit to describe equilibrium fractionation factors. Comparison of these fractionation factors with a compilation of ∼500 compiled environmental gas samples supports the proposal that many (∼50%) of these natural gas samples exhibit hydrogen isotopic compositions consistent with having formed in or attained methane-ethane-propane hydrogen isotopic equilibrium over geologically relevant temperatures for formation and storage (50–300 °C).

Understanding the Correlation between Ga Speciation and Propane Dehydrogenation Activity on Ga/H-ZSM-5 Catalysts

H-ZSM-5 zeolite-supported Ga (Ga/H-ZSM-5) has been considered as a selective catalyst for nonoxidative propane dehydrogenation (PDH) for decades; however, the reaction mechanism remains a topic of considerable discussion. In particular, the correlation between various Ga species present on the catalyst at the reaction conditions and the PDH activity has yet to be established. In this work, intrinsic PDH rates and activation energies were determined on Ga + –H + pair sites and isolated Ga + sites on Ga/H-ZSM-5 samples with a wide range of Si/Al and Ga/Al ratios. Here, the turnover frequency on Ga + –H + pair sites in the PDH is higher than that of isolated Ga + sites by a factor of ~15. Experimental measurements combined with a dual-site model show the activation energy in the PDH on the Ga + –H + pair sites and isolated Ga + sites to be 90.8 ± 1.5 and 117 ± 4.7 kJ·mol –1 , respectively. These results demonstrate that Ga+–H+ pair sites are much more active in the PDH than isolated Ga + sites. The activation energy of GaH x decomposition to form H 2 was determined to be 40–60 kJ·mol –1 higher than that of the PDH on Ga species, suggesting that the GaH x decomposition is unlikely to be part of the PDH mechanism. Although both Brønsted acid and Ga sites interact with propane, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy results provide strong evidence suggesting that the alkyl mechanism is more likely in the PDH on Ga/H-ZSM-5 catalysts.

Ce x Zr 1– x O 2 -Supported CrO x Catalysts for CO 2 -Assisted Oxidative Dehydrogenation of Propane–Probing the Active Sites and Strategies for Enhanced Stability

CO 2 -assisted oxidative dehydrogenation of propane (CO 2 -ODH) represents an attractive approach for propylene production and CO 2 utilization. As a soft oxidant, CO 2 can minimize overoxidation of the hydrocarbons to enhance the propylene selectivity while increasing the equilibrium yield. However, a major challenge of CO 2 -ODH is the rapid deactivation of the catalysts. The current study focuses on designing Ce x Zr 1–x O 2 -mixed oxide-supported CrO x catalysts for CO 2 -ODH with enhanced product selectivity and catalyst stability. By doping 0–30% Ce in the Ce x Zr 1–x O 2 mixed oxide support, propane conversion of 53–79% was achieved at 600 °C, with propylene selectivity up to 82%. Compared to the pure ZrO 2 -supported catalyst (i.e., 5 wt %Cr/ZrO 2 ), 20–30 %Ce doped catalysts (i.e., 5 wt %Cr/Ce 0.2 Zr 0.8 O 2 and 5 wt %Cr/Ce 0.3 Zr 0.7 O 2 ) inhibited the formation of CH 4 and ethylene and improved propylene selectivity from 57 to 77–82%. Detailed characterizations of the 5%Cr/Ce 0.2 Zr 0.8 O 2 catalyst and density functional theory (DFT) calculations indicated that Cr 3+ is the active species during the CO 2 -ODH reaction, and the reaction follows a non-redox dehydrogenation pathway. Coke formation was determined to be the primary reason for catalyst deactivation, and the addition of Ce to the ZrO 2 support greatly enhanced the coke resistance, leading to superior stability. Furthermore, coke removal by oxidizing the catalyst in air is effective in restoring its activity.

Sulfur Tolerant Subnanometer Fe/Alumina Catalysts for Propane Dehydrogenation

A series of Al 2 O 3 -supported Fe-containing catalysts were synthesized by incipient wetness impregnation. The iron surface density was varied from 1 to 13 Fe atoms/nm 2 spanning submonolayer to above-monolayer coverage. Here, the resulting supported Fe-catalysts were characterized by N 2 physisorption, ex situ X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray pair distribution function (PDF), X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), aberration corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy (AC-STEM) and chemically probed by hydrogen temperature-programmed reduction (H 2 -TPR). The results suggest that over this entire range of loadings, Fe was present as dispersed species, with only a very small fraction of Fe 2 O 3 aggregates, at the highest Fe loading in oxide phase. The in situ sulfidation of Fe/Al 2 O 3 resulted in the formation of a highly active and selective PDH catalyst. The highest activity with 52% propane conversion and ~99% propylene selectivity at 560 °C was obtained for the 6.4 Fe/Al 2 O 3 -S catalyst, suggesting that this is the highest amount of Fe that could be fully dispersed on the support in sulfided form. XRD and AC-STEM indicated the absence of any crystalline iron sulfide aggregates after sulfidation and reaction. H 2 -TPR results indicated that the amount of the reducible Fe sites in the sulfided catalyst remained constant above monolayer coverage, and increasing loading did not increase the number of reducible Fe sites. Consistent with these results, the reactivity per gram of catalyst showed no increase with Fe loading above monolayer coverage, suggesting that additional Fe remains conformal to the alumina surface.

A Theoretical Study of NH 2 Radical Reactions with Propane and Its Kinetic Implications in NH 3 -Propane Blends’ Oxidation

The reaction of NH 2 radicals with C 3 H 8 is crucial for understanding the combustion behavior of NH 3 /C 3 H 8 blends. In this study, we investigated the temperature dependence of the rate coefficients for the hydrogen abstraction reactions of C 3 H 8 by NH 2 radicals using high-level theoretical approaches. The potential energy surface was constructed at the CCSD(T)/cc-pV(T, Q)//M06-2X/aug-cc-pVTZ level of theory, and the rate coefficients were computed using conventional transition state theory, incorporating the corrections for quantum tunneling and hindered internal rotors (HIR). The computed rate coefficients showed a strong curvature in the Arrhenius behavior, capturing the experimental literature data well at low temperatures. However, at T > 1500 K, the theory severely overpredicted the experimental data. The available theoretical studies did not align with the experiment at high temperatures, and the possible reasons for this discrepancy are discussed. At 300 K, the reaction of NH 2 with C 3 H 8 predominantly occurs at the secondary C-H site, which accounts for approximately 95% of the total reaction flux. However, the hydrogen abstraction reaction at the primary C-H site becomes the dominant reaction above 1700 K. A composite kinetic model was built, which incorporated the computed rate coefficients for NH 2 + C 3 H 8 reactions. The importance of NH 2 + C 3 H 8 reactions in predicting the combustion behavior of NH 3 /C 3 H 8 blends was demonstrated by kinetic modeling.

Delivering Clean Air in Denver: Propane Trucks and Infrastructure in Mail Delivery Application

In 2021, Drive Clean Colorado, a Denver-based Clean Cities coalition, initiated the deployment of five Class 6 medium-duty propane autogas delivery trucks into a United States Postal Service (USPS) mail delivery contractor fleet with the goal of providing a proof-of-concept demonstration for mail delivery fleets nationwide. Funded by the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy, the project, titled "Delivering Clean Air in Denver: Propane Trucks and Infrastructure in Mail Delivery Application," enabled the purchase and deployment of the propane-powered trucks, refueling infrastructure, and supporting analysis by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). Key objectives of the analysis included calculating the propane vehicles' emissions reductions, analyzing the costs and operational performance of the propane fleet compared to conventional diesel-powered vehicles, and evaluating the viability of propane as a clean and cost-effective alternative to conventional diesel trucks (AFDC 2023b, 2023c). The primary goal of the project was to demonstrate alternative fuel vehicles in a mail transport application and evaluate the viability of propane as a clean and cost-effective alternative to conventional diesel trucks. This proof-of-concept demonstration is expected to lead to improved understanding of the performance attributes, costs, and operational issues to inform technology adoption decisions, helping to spur market transformation toward lower-emission truck fleets. By reducing the risk of first adoption, potential exists to transform the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) mail delivery system into a lower-carbon national fleet. This technical report details the vehicle duty cycle characterization and fleet cost and performance comparison performed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, in addition to estimated emissions reductions for delivery operations.

A wide range experimental study and further development of a kinetic model describing propane oxidation

This work presents an experimental and kinetic modeling study of propane oxidation. Ignition delay times of propane were measured in a high-pressure shock tube and in rapid compression machines in the temperature range 689 - 1700 K at equivalence ratios of 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 in 'air', for a wide range of pressures from 20 to 90 bar. CO and H 2 O mole fraction profiles for propane oxidation were measured in a shock tube behind reflected shock waves in the temperature range 1370-1840 K at equivalence ratios of 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 and at a pressure of approximately 1.3 atm. Moreover, propane oxidation was studied using a jet-stirred reactor coupled to a synchrotron vacuum ultraviolet photoionization mass spectrometer at low temperatures in the range 565 - 690 K and at a pressure of 1 atm. Further, this wide range of experimental datasets for propane oxidation was used to reoptimize and update our previous kinetic mechanisms, AramcoMech3.0 and NUIGMech1.1. In the current mechanism, NUIGMech1.3, the thermo-chemical parameters of all species relevant to low-temperature propane oxidation chemistry, including propyl-peroxyl, hydroperoxyl-propyl, hydroperoxyl-propyl-peroxyl, and carbonyl-hydroperoxide radicals, are updated based on newly calculated values at the CCSD(T)-F12/TZ-F12//B2PLYPD3/TZ///B2PLYP-D3/TZ level of theory. The improvements made in the thermochemical values and in the kinetic parameters for the low-temperature propane oxidation reactions in NUIGMech1.3 result in better model agreement with the new IDTs and speciation data, including carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, propene, acetaldehyde and various minor products such as ethylene, acetic acid, acrolein as well as various hydroperoxide and cyclic ether species.

DME-to-Propane Mixture Effects on a Light Duty Compression Ignition Engine

Fuels that can be produced in a sustainable manner are of high interest because they can provide an essential step toward net zero emissions vehicles. This study examines the combustion of two such fuels, Dimethyl Ether (DME) and propane, in a compression ignition, 4-cylinder, 2.2L engine running with mixtures of DME-to-Propane ranging of 100%-0%, 85%-15%, 75%-25%, and 65%-35% by weight. Testing was conducted at 2000rpm - 100Nm, an important representative point in the FTP certification cycle. For each fuel mixture, conditions tested include sweeps of boost, EGR and injection pressure. Here, tests are mainly conducted at a constant combustion timing with CA10 of -1 deg with respect to TDC, with an engine controller combustion feedback system based on in-cylinder sampling of pressure. Trends of NOx, HC, and CO are similar for the range of DME-to-propane, from 100%-0% to 75%-25%. Boost and injection pressures had the most notable impact on the heat release traces. Higher boost, from stoichiometric to lean resulted in approximately a 3-5% increase on cycle efficiency. Fuel injection pressures resulted in about 1% gain per 200bar. Results also illustrated that EGR is effective in reducing NOx but causes notable degradation of cycle efficiency. The emissions for DME-propane mixtures with 65%-35% had a different trend, with CO and HC exceeding the runs with lower propane content by 2 to 3-fold. As propane content increases, the pressure rise rates become higher, and with 65%-35% mixtures, rates easily exceed 12bar/deg. The increased rise rates correlate with early injection timings but the rates can be reduced, with higher boost and lower injection pressures. The result of the approach, however, leads to lower thermal efficiencies, decreasing efficiency by over 5% between neat DME and the highest propane ratios.

Effect of hydrogen injection stability and emissions of an experimental premixed prevaporized propane burner

Hydrogen in quantities up to 5 percent by weight of the total fuel flow was injected into a premixed propane burner. The hydrogen was either premixed with the propane and air upstream of the burner or introduced as a torch at the flameholder. Emissions of total nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and unburned hydrocarbon are reported as are combustion efficiencies and lean blowout limits. To maintain at least 99 percent combustion efficiency at a 700 K inlet mixture temperature with no hydrogen added, it was necessary to burn with a propane equivalence ratio of 0.525. When 4 percent hydrogen was premixed with the propane and air, a combustion efficiency greater than 99 percent was recorded at a propane equivalence ratio of 0.425. The total nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions corresponding to these two conditions were 0.8 g NO2/kg equivalent propane and 0.44 g NO2/kg equivalent propane, respectively. The hydrogen torch did not reduce NOx emissions.

Establishing the accuracy of position–specific carbon isotope analysis of propane by GC–pyrolysis–GC–IRMS

Rationale: Position-specific (PS) δ 13 C values of propane have proven their ability to provide valuable information on the evolution history of natural gases. Two major approaches to measure PS δ 13 C values of propane are isotopic 13 C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and gas chromatography-pyrolysis-gas chromatography-isotope ratio mass spectrometry (GC-Py-GC-IRMS). Measurement accuracy of the isotopic 13 C NMR has been verified, but the requirements of large sample size and long experimental time limit its applications. GC-Py-GC-IRMS is a more versatile method with a small sample size, but its accuracy has not been demonstrated. Methods: We measured the PS δ 13 C values of propane from nine natural gases using both 13 C NMR and GC-Py-GC-IRMS, then evaluated the accuracy of the GC-Py-GC-IRMS method. Results: The results show that large carbon isotope fractionations occurred for both terminal and central carbons within propane during pyrolysis. The isotope fractionations during the pyrolysis are reproducible at optimum conditions, but vary between the two GC-Py-GC-IRMS systems tested, affected by experimental conditions (e.g., pyrolysis temperature, flow rate, and reactor conditions). Conclusions: It is necessary to evaluate and calibrate each GC-Py-GC-IRMS system using propane gases with accurately determined PS δ 13 C values. Finally, this study also highlights a need for PS isotope standards for propane and other molecules (e.g., butane and acetic acid).

Performance and Emissions of an SI Engine Fueled With DME-Propane Blends

Dimethyl Ether (DME) is an alternative fuel that can be produced renewably and has the potential for lower CO and NOx emissions than conventional petroleum-based fuels. Blending DME with another gaseous fuel such as propane, which has a lower knock tendency than gasoline, can allow this fuel to be leveraged on SI engines. In this study, the use of DME-propane blends on a spark ignition (SI) engine was studied via computer simulations in order to understand the impact on engine performance and emissions and to identify the knock limitations of using such fuel blends. A 2L Hyundai SI engine was modeled in GT Power and the model was validated by comparing it with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation results. Starting from pure propane, DME was added incrementally until knock was observed in the engine. Results indicate that it is feasible to run propane with DME percentages up to 35% before severe knock impacts were observed. The BTE was higher, but the BSFC also increased for DME-propane blends as compared to gasoline. Here, an increase in NOx emissions was detected along with a significant decrease in CO emissions. CO 2 emissions declined for propane as compared to gasoline but increased with the addition of DME.

Tuning Metal–Organic Framework (MOF) Topology by Regulating Ligand and Secondary Building Unit (SBU) Geometry: Structures Built on 8-Connected M 6 (M = Zr, Y) Clusters and a Flexible Tetracarboxylate for Propane-Selective Propane/Propylene Separation

Topology evolution originating from variations of linker and SBU (Secondary Building Unit) geometries could largely enrich the chemistry of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs). Here we report the synthesis and characterization of three MOF structures built on the same organic linker, N,N,N',N'-Tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)-1,4-phenylenediamine (tcppda) and similar 8-connected M 6 (M = Zr or Y) clusters. The three compounds, HIAM-402, HIAM-403, and HIAM-311, feature 4,8-connected sqc, scu, and flu topology, respectively. Detailed structural analysis revealed that different geometries of the inorganic M 6 SBUs as well as the organic linker have led to the formation of distinct MOF nets. In particular, HIAM-402 features exceptional framework stability and high porosity and acts as a propane-selective adsorbent for the discrimination of propane and propylene. Its balanced adsorption selectivity (S propane/propylene = 1.43) and capacity (Q propane = 133.3 cm 3 /g, 298 K and 1 bar) endow it with the capability of separating propane and propylene mixtures and one-step production of highly pure propylene (purity >99.9%), as validated by column breakthrough measurements, with the presence of moisture or propyne. As a result, ab initio calculations further confirm that the propane-selective behavior of HIAM-402 is a result of its higher binding energy toward propane compared to that of propylene.

A Robust Methodology to Elucidate Kinetics of Room Temperature Electrochemical Propane Adsorption on Platinum

Electrocatalytic activation of alkanes can further decarbonize chemical manufacturing by leveraging affordable renewable electricity and readily available shale gas reserves in the United States. Earlier works have identified the unique role of Pt in adsorbing and activating alkanes, like propane, at room temperature in acidic, aqueous electrolytes, revealing spontaneous formation of deeply dehydrogenated propane-derived surface species with an intact C 3 - backbone. Although an adsorption mechanism was hypothesized, it has not been explicitly investigated to date, preventing the quantification of kinetic rate parameters. A robust methodology to investigate and benchmark propane adsorption kinetics on Pt is critical for the rational design of electrocatalysts that exhibit higher selectivity toward desired partially oxidized products. Herein, we analyze an oxidative current transience that appears during the adsorption of propane on Pt in aqueous electrochemical conditions and develop a methodology that elucidates the adsorption mechanism and enables quantification of rate parameters such as order dependences and apparent activation barriers. This method yields an expected first-order dependence with respect to propane concentration at low coverage and reveals a second-order dependence with respect to the concentration of surface active sites. Additionally, the apparent activation barrier for propane adsorption was calculated using an Arrhenius analysis of the current transience under temperature control. The experimentally measured activation barrier of 35 kJ mol –1 is in excellent agreement with the theoretical barrier calculated by density functional theory (DFT). The kinetic analysis was extended, via the use of transition state theory, to extract entropy and enthalpy of activation, yielding consistent results with the proposed two-step adsorption mechanism and DFT calculations. These results demonstrate reliable quantification of kinetic parameters for electrocatalytic activation of C–H bonds in alkanes that can be employed for rational catalyst development for a versatile range of electrocatalytic conditions.

Experimental Investigation of the Effect of Air-Handling and DME-Propane Blends on the Performance and Emissions of a 4-Cylinder CI Engine

Dimethyl ether (DME) is considered an excellent alternative to diesel because of its higher cetane number and lower carbon content. Additionally, DME can be blended with abundantly available propane with minimal modifications to the propane infrastructure. This paper focuses on an experimental investigation of the effect of air-handling i.e., boost pressure and exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), and DME-propane blends on the combustion and emissions performance of a light-duty, four-cylinder, compression ignition (CI) engine. Here, the boost pressure and EGR sweeps were carried out and showed that higher boost pressures resulted in increased brake thermal efficiencies (BTE) at the expense of higher NOx emissions which could be reduced by an increase in EGR. The fuel sweeps were carried out at 0, 15 and 25% propane (neat, 85% and 75% DME) with 0% and 25% EGR. The fuel sweeps indicated that the ignition delay (ID) increased and burn duration (BD) decreased monotonically when the blend increased to 25% propane/75% DME. The results suggest optimum engine performance with neat DME at 105 kPa boost pressure and 25% EGR with propane addition improving the BTE with negligible increase in emissions. Higher contents of Propane, up to 25%, did not affect the variability of combustion, with standard deviations of burn duration and peak cylinder pressures below 1% for all test cases.

DME-Propane Ignition Delay Time Measurements at Mixing Controlled Compression Ignition Engine-Relevant Conditions

The blend of dimethyl ether (DME, CH 3 OCH 3 ) and propane (C 3 H 8 ) is a potentially renewable fuel mixture that has the potential to replace diesel in compression ignition engines. The combination can potentially reduce particulate and greenhouse gas emissions compared to a conventional diesel engine operating under similar conditions. However, detailed conceptual and simulation studies must be conducted before adopting a new fuel on a compression ignition engine. For these simulations, accurate chemical kinetic models are necessary. However, the validity of chemical kinetic mechanisms in the literature is unknown for mixing controlled compression ignition (MCCI) engine operating conditions. Hence, in this work, we studied the ignition of dimethyl ether (DME) and propane blends in a shock tube at MCCI engine conditions. Ignition delay time (IDT) data was collected behind the reflected shock for DME-propane mixtures for heavy-duty compression ignition (CI) engine parameters. Undiluted experiments spanning temperatures of 700 to 1100 K and pressures of 55 to 84 bar for various blends (100% CH 3 OCH 3 / 0% C 3 H 8, 100% C 3 H 8 / 0% CH 3 OCH 3 , 60% CH 3 OCH 3 / 40% C 3 H 8 ) of DME and propane were combusted in synthetic air (21% O 2 / 79% N 2 ). Some experiments were conducted at higher pressures (90-120 bar) to understand model performance at these conditions. Comparisons of IDT were made with the predictions of recent chemical kinetic mechanisms for DME-propane mixture, including the Aramco3.0, NUIG, and Dames et al. mechanisms. All mechanisms overpredicted IDT compared to experimental values. Sensitivity analysis was conducted with Dames et al. model, and critical reactions sensitive to IDT of DME-propane mixture near 100 bar are outlined.

Comparison of direct and CO 2 -oxidative dehydrogenation of propane

Propane dehydrogenation to propylene has received increasing attention due to the fast growth in propylene demand and the exploration of shale gas containing propane. Direct dehydrogenation of propane (DDHP) offers high propylene selectivity but is limited by quick deactivation due to coke formation. CO 2 -assisted oxidative dehydrogenation of propane (CO 2 -ODHP) can consume CO 2 and meanwhile reduce coke deposition via the reverse Boudouard reaction. Here in the current review, direct and CO 2 -assisted dehydrogenation of propane has been compared from three aspects: reaction mechanisms, catalyst compositions, and CO 2 footprint analysis. As the average CO 2 emissions from electricity generation decrease due to the utilization of renewable energy, CO 2 -ODHP potentially leads to a net-negative CO 2 footprint while DDHP cannot.
