Abstract
Anisole (methoxybenzene) often serves as a potent biomass model compound in hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) reactions with the primary aim to underpin conditions and operations that facilitate conversion of bio-oil into non-oxygenated fuel. However, the majority of studies in literature has focused on its HDO in a solvent environment under excessive conditions of high hydrogen flow rate and elevated pressures. Herein, we investigate HDO of an evaporated stream anisole on a continues flow reactor over four combination of Ni/Co catalysts supported on Zeolite or Al2O3. Catalysts were characterized by various methods which span XRD, SEM-EDS and TPR. The reaction was carried out between 300–600 °C. The highest conversion at 87% was acquired using the Ni–Co/Zeolite catalyst (87%) while producing high yield of phenols and cresols. Synergistic effects brought by the incorporation of Co in the lattice of the catalyst has been discussed. Overall, we obtained a viable HDO path for this biomass model compound using combination of different supported catalysts at moderate operational conditions (relatively intermediate temperatures, ambient pressure, and low H2/Feed ratio).
期刊介绍:
Early dissemination of important findings from Asia which may lead to new concepts in catalyst design is the main aim of this journal. Rapid, invited, short reviews and perspectives from academia and industry will constitute the major part of Catalysis Surveys from Asia . Surveys of recent progress and activities in catalytic science and technology and related areas in Asia will be covered regularly as well. We would appreciate critical comments from colleagues throughout the world about articles in Catalysis Surveys from Asia . If requested and thought appropriate, the comments will be included in the journal. We will be very happy if this journal stimulates global communication between scientists and engineers in the world of catalysis.
