Abstract:H 2 -reduced phosphomolybdate (PMA) demonstrated promising aerobic selective methane oxidation activity at room temperature. However, this catalytic system remains limited by insufficient methane activation efficiency at the molybdenum (Mo) sites. Here, we introduce inorganic sulfite anions as a promoter to enhance the H 2 -treated heterogeneous palladium (Pd)-containing Pd/CsPMA catalyst. With the optimal sulfite addition, the methanol productivity was improved by more than 4 times without compromising high m… Show more
