6 Motivation Most hydrodeoxygenation studies have focused on sulfided CoMo and NiMo-based catalysts. A significant fraction of fast pyrolysis and other bio-oils is a mixture of phenol compounds (20~30%). However, most of the phenolic fragments will be 6-9 carbons in mass, and after deoxygenation and ring saturation, the hydrocarbons formed will be of lower molecular weight and thus of only moderate value as a fuel. To this end, an important goal in biomass upgrading is often molecular weight enhancement, producing molecules of appropriate molecular weight for use as gasoline or diesel fuels. OH Bifunctional Catalysis Pt/Zeolite H 2 (4 MPa), 473 K + Hydrogenation/ Hydrogenolysis Hydrogenation/Hydrogenolysis & Coupling
7 Experimental: Preparation of catalysts Impregnation of the solution of Pt(NH 3 ) 4 (NO 3 ) 2 onto Y zeolites Calcination: 500 o C for 4 in air. Catalytic activity measurement Continuous fixed bed reactor Reduction: H 2 flow (50 ml/min; atmospheric pressure), 500 o C for 1h (b =1 o C/min). Temperature = K H 2 pressure = 40 bar WHSV = 5-20 h -1 H 2 flow rate = 50 ml/min Product analysis: On-line GC equipped with FID and TCD, GC/MS Characterization of catalyst XRD, H 2 chemisorption, N 2 physisorption, 27 Al NMR, TGA, FT-IR
8 Products identified using GC/MS Major products OH ( 60 ~ 95%) ( ~ 8%) ( ~ 15%) Minor products O OH O ( ~ 5%) ( ~ 5%) ( ~ 1%) ( ~ 3%) ( ~ 1%) ( ~ 1%) OH Trace ( < 0.5%) OH O OH O HO * Parentheses show the maximum selectivity Products were identified by Shimadzu GC/MS and Varian GC/MS.
9 Selectivity (%) Selectivity (%) Monocyclic Product Selectivity versus Phenol Conversion Methyl cyclopentane Benzene Cyclohexane Cyclohexene Cyclohexanone Cyclohexanol Conversion of phenol (%) 0 Temperature, 473 K; H 2 pressure, 4.0 MPa; Catalyst loading, 100 mg; Catalyst, 0.5 wt% Pt/HY (SiO 2 /Al 2 O 3 = 12), WHSV, 5-20 h -1 ; H 2 O content, 5 wt%.
10 Reaction pathway of phenol to monocyclics O H 2 H2 H 2 H 2 OH OH OH 2H 2 H 2 H + H 2 -H 2 O Reaction pathway of phenol to monocyclics in the catalytic hydrogenation treatment. Phenol appears to be hydrogenated to cyclohexenol as an intermediate product in the initial steps, and then this species is rapidly converted to cyclohexanol and/or cyclohexanone through two parallel pathways. Hong et al., Chem. Commun. 2010, 46, 1038;
11 Selectivity (%) Bycyclic Product Selectivity versus Phenol Conversion Cychlopentyl Methyl cyclohexane Bicyclohexyl 2-Cyclohexyl cyclohexanone 2-Cyclohexyl phenol 4-Cyclohexyl phenol Tricyclohexyl Conversion of phenol (%) Temperature, 473 K; H 2 pressure, 4.0 MPa; Catalyst loading, 100 mg; Catalyst, 0.5 wt% Pt/HY (SiO 2 /Al 2 O 3 = 12), WHSV, 5-20 h -1 ; H 2 O content, 5 wt%.
12 Reaction pathway of phenol to bicyclics OH OH OH OH H + 3H 2 2H 2 2H 2 2H 2 O O O O H 2 H + Proposed reaction pathway of phenol to bicyclics in the catalytic hydrogenation reaction Cyclohexyl phenol formation is dominant in the presence of cyclohexanol as an alkylating agent Kallury, et al., Can. J. Chem., 1984, 62, 2540; Anand et al.,catal. Lett., 2002, 81, ; 2002, 81, cyclohexyl cyclohexanone can be produced from cyclohexanone by aldol condensation over the acidic zeolite Xu et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1994, 116, 1962; J. Huang, W. Long, P. K. Agrawal and C. W. Jones, J. Phys.Chem. C, 2009, 113,
13 Conversion of phenol (%) N 2 adsorbed (ml/g, STP) N 2 adsorption over spent catalysts with different on-stream times 100 Conversion of phenol h 1h 5h 8h 10h Time-on-stream (h) Relative Pressure (P/Po) Samples were pretreated in vacuum at 473 K for 12 hr Reaction conditions: Temperature, 473 K; H 2 pressure, 40 bar; Catalyst loading, 100 mg; Catalyst, 0.5 wt% Pt/HY (SiO 2 /Al 2 O 3 = 12); WHSV, 5 h -1 ; H 2 O content, 10 wt%. Sample S BET (m 2 /g) TPV (cm 3 /g) V micro (cm 3 /g) Vol * (cm 3 /g) 0 h h h h h
14 Summary Pt-HY catalyst effectively hydrogenates phenol to produce saturated hydrocarbons. Hydrogen use significant (high P); catalyst expensive (Pt). Catalyst deactivates due to coking stability too limited for practical use. Bicyclic products in good molecular weight regime for fuels, cyclohexane of limited value.
15 Recent Work: Slow Deactivation, Tune Product Selectivity Replace Pt with Ni (lower metal cost) Replace microporous zeolite with large pore, mesocellular foam (improved transport, lower acid strength, less impact of carbon deactivation) Experiment with reactor configuration: -- bifunctional catalysts -- intermixed acid and hydrogenation catalysis -- dual beds - acid and hydrogenation catalysis Ni/SiO 2 is a known catalyst for phenol hydrogenation.
