Abstract
This study investigates the effects of the active-phase deposition method on the properties and performance of Ru-based catalysts supported on halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) in the model hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of guaiacol. Among the loading methods tested—incipient wetness impregnation, vacuum impregnation, and microwave-assisted impregnation—the last provided the highest dispersion of the resulting ruthenium nanoparticles and their preferential location inside the lumen of the nanotubes. For the Ru/HNT catalyst synthesized by microwave-assisted impregnation, optimal reaction conditions were established: 180°C, 3 MPa H2, a guaiacol/Ru molar ratio of 200, and water as a solvent. Under these conditions, guaiacol conversion reached 100% with a turnover frequency (TOF) of 278 h–1; moreover, the selectivity toward the product of exhaustive HDO, cyclohexane, did not exceed 6% due to the low acidity of halloysite.
期刊介绍:
Petroleum Chemistry (Neftekhimiya), founded in 1961, offers original papers on and reviews of theoretical and experimental studies concerned with current problems of petroleum chemistry and processing such as chemical composition of crude oils and natural gas liquids; petroleum refining (cracking, hydrocracking, and catalytic reforming); catalysts for petrochemical processes (hydrogenation, isomerization, oxidation, hydroformylation, etc.); activation and catalytic transformation of hydrocarbons and other components of petroleum, natural gas, and other complex organic mixtures; new petrochemicals including lubricants and additives; environmental problems; and information on scientific meetings relevant to these areas.
Petroleum Chemistry publishes articles on these topics from members of the scientific community of the former Soviet Union.
