    Abstract: Methods for fabricating thermally stable reducible metal oxide catalyst support structures on a base material using a multi-step incipient wetness impregnation (IWI) process are disclosed. For example, reducible metal oxide catalyst support structures having high surface area and high thermal stability may be formed using a multi-step IWI process, where the support structure is generated through high-temperature calcination between IWI steps. The metal or metal oxide catalysts fabricated using the methods are also disclosed. The generation of engineered surface defects on reducible metal oxides using a gas reduction process to serve as anchoring sites for metal or metal oxide catalysts is also disclosed. Generating engineered defects through a gas reduction process may be a relatively low-cost and scalable process suitable for fabricating efficient catalysts using a wide range of materials.

    Abstract: A method for preparing p-xylene is provided. Raw materials containing methanol, naphtha and CO2 are introduced into a reactor filled with a catalyst for a reaction to produce p-xylene. By adding the methanol, the product distribution is adjusted, and the selectivity of p-xylene is obviously improved. In addition, components containing benzene and toluene in aromatic hydrocarbon products are returned to a reaction system and co-fed with the raw materials for a reaction to produce p-xylene, so that cyclic utilization of the raw materials is achieved, and the method has extremely high economic benefits. The method has a simple process and high feasibility, can greatly improve the selectivity and yield of p-xylene, has an important application value, and provides a new way for large-scale utilization of CO2.
