    Abstract:
    A prototype high throughput operando (HTO) reactor designed and built for catalyst screening and characterization combines Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) imaging and Raman spectroscopy in operando conditions. Using a focal plane array detector (HgCdTe focal plane array, 128x128 pixels, and 1610 Hz frame rate) for the FT-IR imaging system, the catalyst activity and selectivity of all parallel reaction channels can be simultaneously followed. Each image data set possesses 16 384 IR spectra with a spectral range of 800-4000 cm(-1) and with an 8 cm(-1) resolution. Depending on the signal-to-noise ratio, 2-20 s are needed to generate a full image of all reaction channels for a data set. Results on reactant conversion and product selectivity are obtained from FT-IR spectral analysis. Six novel Raman probes, one for each reaction channel, were specially designed and house built at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, to simultaneously collect Raman spectra of the catalysts and possible reaction intermediates on the catalyst surface under operando conditions. As a model system, methanol partial oxidation reaction on silica-supported molybdenum oxide (MoO3SiO2) catalysts has been studied under different reaction conditions to demonstrate the performance of the HTO reactor.
