Hierarchical HZSM-5 for Catalytic Cracking of Oleic Acid to Biofuels.

ABSTRACT: Solid acid catalyzed cracking of waste oil-derived fatty acids is an attractive route to hydrocarbon fuels. HZSM-5 is an effective acid catalyst for fatty acid cracking; however, its microporous nature is susceptible to rapid deactivation by coking. We report the synthesis and application of hierarchical HZSM-5 (h-HZSM-5) in which silanization of pre-crystallized zeolite seeds is employed to introduce mesoporosity during the aggregation of growing crystallites. The resulting h-HZSM-5 comprises a disordered array of fused 10-20 nm crystallites and mesopores with a mean diameter of 13 nm, which maintain the high surface area and acidity of a conventional HZSM-5. Mesopores increase the yield of diesel range hydrocarbons obtained from oleic acid deoxygenation from ~20% to 65%, attributed to improved acid site accessibility within the hierarchical network.

Hierarchical macro-meso-microporous ZSM-5 zeolite hollow fibers with highly efficient catalytic cracking capability.

Project description:Zeolite fibers have attracted growing interest for a range of new applications because of their structural particularity while maintaining the intrinsic performances of the building blocks of zeolites. The fabrication of uniform zeolite fibers with tunable hierarchical porosity and further exploration of their catalytic potential are of great importance. Here, we present a versatile and facile method for the fabrication of hierarchical ZSM-5 zeolite fibers with macro-meso-microporosity by coaxial electrospinning. Due to the synergistic integration of the suitable acidity and the hierarchical porosity, high yield of propylene and excellent anti-coking stability were demonstrated on the as-prepared ZSM-5 hollow fibers in the catalytic cracking reaction of iso-butane. This work may also provide good model catalysts with uniform wall thickness and tunable porosity for studying a series of important catalytic reactions.

Catalytic Cracking of Lactide and Poly(Lactic Acid) to Acrylic Acid at Low Temperatures.

Project description:Despite being a simple dehydration reaction, the industrially relevant conversion of lactic acid to acrylic acid is particularly challenging. For the first time, the catalytic cracking of lactide and poly(lactic acid) to acrylic acid under mild conditions is reported with up to 58 % yield. This transformation is catalyzed by strong acids in the presence of bromide or chloride salts and proceeds through simple SN 2 and elimination reactions.

Brassica napus high oleic acid vs. low oleic acid

Project description:Compared to ordinary rapeseed, high-oleic acid rapeseed has higher levels of monounsaturated fatty acids and lower levels of saturated fatty acid and polyunsaturated fatty acids, and thus is of high nutritional and health value. In addition, high-oleic acid rapeseed oil imparts cardiovascular protective effects. Based on these properties, high-oleic acid oil crops have been extensively investigated and cultivated. In this study, we employed a microarray analysis with high oleic acid line and low oleic acid line from the developing seeds (27 days after flowering) of Brassica napus.

Ozone-assisted catalytic oxidation of aqueous nitrite ions on HZSM-5 zeolites.

Project description:Simultaneous removal of NOx and SO2 during the wet absorption process has made it possible for nitrogen resource utilization. However, nitrites formation at high ratio in absorption solution would limit its application. In this study, the catalytic oxidation behaviors of aqueous nitrite ions assisted by ozone on HZSM-5 zeolites with different SiO2/Al2O3 ratios have been investigated. The experimental results revealed that the oxidation and disproportionation reactions of nitrite ions took place competitively, both of which were accelerated under acidic condition. Moreover, the introduction of HZSM-5 zeolites and ozone would significantly improve the nitrite oxidation rate, where the zeolites with high SiO2/Al2O3 ratios were found to be more effective owing to the enhanced adsorption of nitrite ions and ozone. Based on the results under different operating conditions (such as O3 concentration, HZSM-5 dosage, pH values and presence of radical scavengers etc.), the reaction mechanism was then proposed. The disproportionation reaction of nitrite ions mainly occurred in the bulk solution. And the catalytic oxidation of nitrite ions over zeolites proceeded via a non-radical surface reaction between the adsorbed nitrite ions and ozone/oxygen molecular.

HEWL interacts with dissipated oleic acid micelles, and decreases oleic acid cytotoxicity.

Project description:Senile plaques are well-known hallmarks of Alzheimer's Diseases (AD). However, drugs targeting tangles of the protein tau and plaques of β-amyloid have no significant effect on disease progression, and the studies on the underlying mechanism of AD remain in high demand. Growing evidence supports the protective role of senile plaques in local inflammation driven by S100A9. We herein demonstrate that oleic acid (OA) micelles interact with hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL) and promote its amyloid formation. Consequently, SH-SY5Y cell line and mouse neural stem cells are rescued from OA toxicity by co-aggregation of OA and HEWL. Using atomic force microscopy in combination with fluorescence microscopy, we revealed that HEWL forms round-shaped aggregates in the presence of OA micelles instead of protofibrils of HEWL alone. These HEWL amyloids act as a sink for toxic OA micelles and their co-aggregate form large clumps, suggesting a protective function in amyloid and OA cytotoxicity.

Life and death of a single catalytic cracking particle.

Project description:Fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) particles account for 40 to 45% of worldwide gasoline production. The hierarchical complex particle pore structure allows access of long-chain feedstock molecules into active catalyst domains where they are cracked into smaller, more valuable hydrocarbon products (for example, gasoline). In this process, metal deposition and intrusion is a major cause for irreversible catalyst deactivation and shifts in product distribution. We used x-ray nanotomography of industrial FCC particles at differing degrees of deactivation to quantify changes in single-particle macroporosity and pore connectivity, correlated to iron and nickel deposition. Our study reveals that these metals are incorporated almost exclusively in near-surface regions, severely limiting macropore accessibility as metal concentrations increase. Because macropore channels are "highways" of the pore network, blocking them prevents feedstock molecules from reaching the catalytically active domains. Consequently, metal deposition reduces conversion with time on stream because the internal pore volume, although itself unobstructed, becomes largely inaccessible.

HZSM-5 zeolite modification and catalytic reaction mechanism in the reaction of cyclohexene hydration.

Project description:This study investigated a three-phase (liquid-liquid-solid) reaction system of cyclohexene hydration where the catalyst was hydrophilic at the bottom of the water phase. Cyclohexene conversion was low since it was difficult for it to come into contact with the oil. The HCl-OTS-HZSM-5 catalyst was prepared by acid and alkylation modification, then subsequently characterized. Acid modification enabled HZSM-5 zeolite to remove some aluminum atoms, increasing specific surface area, pore volume, and acid sites. N-octyltrimethoxysilane (OTS) was grafted onto the HZSM-5 zeolite surface, i.e., alkylation modification, to improve the contact area between immiscible reactants. Consequently, cyclohexene conversion reached 24.07%. Cyclohexene hydration was calculated using the 34T cluster model, and bridging hydroxyl and water molecule adsorption sites were explored. Simulations confirmed that the reaction energy barrier for the HCl-OTS-HZSM-5 catalyzed hydration reaction = 46.67 kJ mol-1, considerably less than that with HZSM-5 zeolite (73.78 kJ mol-1). The theoretical results reasonably explain the experiments and provide guidance to prepare catalysts with high catalytic activity.

Catalytic characteristics of a Ni-MgO/HZSM-5 catalyst for steam reforming of toluene.

Project description:Steam reforming is a potential technology for the conversion of biomass pyrolysis tar into gaseous products. In this study, HZSM-5 was selected as the nickel-based catalyst support and toluene was chosen as the tar model compound. Ni was replaced with MgO to improve the coking resistance of the catalyst. The effects of Ni and MgO loading on toluene conversion and gaseous product generation rate were investigated. The low Ni-loading Ni/HZSM-5 catalyst exhibited poor catalytic activity, whereas a high Ni-loading catalyst displayed poor coking resistance. The addition of the MgO promoter enhanced the steam reforming performance of the Ni/HZSM-5 catalyst with a low loading of active metal Ni (3 wt%). The optimal MgO loading was found at 6 wt%. By characterizing the catalyst before and after the reaction, we found that MgO would enter the wall and pores of the support, resulting in increased pore size and decreased specific surface area. Ni and MgO were combined to form NiO-MgO solid solution active centers, which enhanced the catalytic reforming performance. Moreover, more MgO loading increased the alkaline strength of the catalytic surface, enhanced the adsorption of CO2, and improved the resistance to carbon deposition. This study revealed the feasibility of replacing Ni with MgO and the potential mechanism of maintaining similar catalytic performance. This study also laid the theoretical foundation for the industrial application of nickel-based catalysts.
