Conversion of Guaiacol on Noble Metal Catalysts: Reaction Performance and Deactivation Studies

Gao, Danni, Schweitzer, Christopher, Hwang, Hyun Tae, Varma, Arvind·2014·Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research

Abstract

Guaiacol, a phenol derived compound produced by the thermal degradation of lignin, was selected as a model compound to study the catalytic hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) process for upgrading pyrolysis bio-oils. Guaiacol is among the major components of bio-oils; however, it is thermally unstable which leads to catalyst deactivation. In the present study, four noble metal catalysts (Pt, Pd, Rh, and Ru) supported on activated carbon were tested in a fixed-bed reactor at atmospheric pressure and their performance for the guaiacol HDO process was measured. Our results showed that, among the tested catalysts, Pt has higher deoxygenation activity and shows little deactivation for 5 h. Additionally, the operating temperature for the Pt catalyst was optimized and found to be 300 °C. Finally, results from catalyst characterization demonstrated that polyaromatic deposits, especially the condensed ring compounds, are the most likely cause for catalyst deactivation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
