Book Partial Oxidation of Methanol to Formaldehyde Over Sb Mo Oxide Catalysts

Download or read book Partial Oxidation of Methanol to Formaldehyde Over Sb Mo Oxide Catalysts written by Rafael Alfredo Díaz Real and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The kinetics of the vapor phase air oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde over molybdenum oxide catalysts, antimony oxide catalyst, and their mixtures (both supported and unsupported), at atmospheric pressure and different operating conditions, have been studied in a fixed-bed integral reactor heated by a fluidized sand bath. The effect of various process variables, namely the process temperature (T), the ratio of catalysts to feed flow rate or space time (W/F), and the ratio of methanol fed to air (R), on conversion and yield have been determined. A screening study at varying operating conditions was performed to determine the optimum composition of a Sb$\sb2\rm O\sb4$-MoO$\sb3$ mixture. On the basis of this study a catalyst containing 67% $\rm Sb\sb2O\sb4$-33% MoO$\sb3$ was selected for the detailed kinetic study of oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde. The operating conditions studied were as follows: temperature in the range 623 to 698 K, space times from 5 to 50 $\rm g\sb{cat}/mol\sb{CH\sb3OH}h\sp{-1},$ and methanol to air ratios in the range 0.04 to 0.10 mol$\rm\sb{CH\sb3OH}h\sp{-1}/mol\sb{air}h\sp{-1}.$ This catalyst proved to be highly active and selective to formaldehyde formation. Yields up to $\sim$100% were obtained. Best operating conditions found were obtained at a space time of 27.5 for a methanol/air ratio of 0.06 and a temperature of 698 K. The rate equation for the oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde was derived on the basis of a two-stage redox mechanism$$\eqalign{\rm CH\sb3OH\sb{(g)} + S\sb{ox}\ {\buildrel{k\sb1}\over{\to}}\ &\rm HCHO\sb{(g)} + H\sb2O\sb{(g)} + S\sb{red}\cr\rm O\sb{2\sb{(g)}} + &\rm S\sb{red}\ {\buildrel{k\sb2}\over{\to}}\ S\sb{ox}\cr}$$where S$\rm\sb{ox}$ represents an active site of lattice oxygen and S$\rm\sb{red}$ represents a reduced site of lattice oxygen. The rate equation for the temperature of 648 to 698 K which correlated the data was$$\rm r = {k\sb1P\sb{M}\over 1+{k\sb1P\sb{M}\over 2k\sb2P\sb{O\sb2}}}$$where k$\sb1$ and k$\sb2$ are the temperature dependent rate constants of steps one and two. The equations relating k$\sb1$ and k$\sb2$ with temperature were$$\eqalign{&\rm ln\ k\sb1 = -6.4039-{6.9153\times10\sp3\over T}\cr&\rm ln\ k\sb2 = -3.0154 + {1.8809\times10\sp3\over T}\cr}$$ Several spectroscopic and analytical techniques, viz, electron spin resonance (ESR), x-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and adsorption studies were used to characterize the catalysts. The surface are of the catalyst used in the kinetic study was 6.1 m$\sp2$/g as determined by the BET method. A preliminary study of the Sb-Mo oxide mixture (load of $\sim$5 wt%) supported on Y zeolite was also carried out. Maximum yield obtained was comparable to that obtained with pure MoO$\sb3.$ A new catalyst has been developed that gave nearly 100% conversion and 100% yield. The industrial potential of this catalyst is very promising.

Download or read book Partial Oxidation of Methanol to Formaldehyde Over Molybdenum tin Oxide Catalysts written by Rowaida George Zoumot and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vapor phase air oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde was investigated over molybdenum oxide, tin oxide and their mixtures in an integral flow reactor at atmospheric pressure between temperature of 513 and 573 K, a space time of 10-40 hr g-cat/g-mol methanol and a molar ratio of 0.04-0.1 mol CH3OH/mol air. Experiments were done under such conditions that the effects of internal and external heat and mass transfer effects were negligible. The effects of several process variables, temperature, space time and methanol/air ratio on the conversion of methanol and the selectivity of the catalyst for formaldehyde production were determined. The results indicated that the impact of the process variables on the conversion, selectivity and yield of formaldehyde were in the following decreasing order T > W/F > R. A screening study indicated the optimum catalyst composition to be 50% SnO2 and 50% MoO3, while conversion increased with temperature and W/F selectivity decreased. This catalyst proved to be highly active and selective to formaldehyde production. Selectivity and yield of up to about 100% were obtained at 100% conversion at a temperature of 553 K, a space time (W/F) of 40 g-cat/g-mol methanol per hour and a molar ratio (R) of 0.04 mol CH3 OH/mol air. The rate expression r=k1P2M 1+k1P2M2k 2PO2 was deduced assuming a steady-state involving two-stage irreversible oxidation-reduction process. It represented the experimental data satisfactorily. Arrhenius plots of the two rate constants gave activation energies of 31.7 and 18.1 kcal/g-mol.

Book Methanol Oxidation on Transition Elements Oxides

Download or read book Methanol Oxidation on Transition Elements Oxides written by Abdulmohsen Alshehri and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Methanol oxidation to formaldehyde is one of the most important industries in our lives; the reaction occurs on catalyst surface in heterogeneous catalysis. Iron molybdate is the current selective catalyst. However, molybdenum volatilises during methanol oxidation and leaving the catalyst with a low molybdenum ratio, which deactivates the catalyst, a 2.2 Mo: 1Fe iron molybdate catalyst was used instead the stoichiometric catalyst, while yield of formaldehyde cannot be 100%. The goal of this study is to find more selective and more productive catalyst than iron molybdate catalyst, the first step is to find another transition element as selective as molybdenum, because molybdenum is the selective part, and iron is the active part, the resulting iron molybdate catalyst is a selective catalyst to formaldehyde near molybdenum and active near iron. Experimentally, catalysts were prepared using co-precipitation method, however, some doped catalysts were papered by incipient wetness impregnation, also sol-immobilization was used to prepare nano-gold particles on the surfaces of few supports. Catalysts characterizations were carried out within several techniques for the surface analysis (XPS) and bulk analysis (XRD), also the surface area was measured by BET equipment. Raman too was used in this study, while micro-reactor was the reactor to determine selectivity and activity of each catalyst. When molybdenum replaced by vanadium, the catalyst yielded 100% formaldehyde at 200 oC; moreover, tungsten was selective. Likewise, iron was replaced by other active metals such as manganese, copper and bismuth, which are active. Nano-gold improved activity when doped on molybdenum oxide and iron molybdate supports.

Book Methane Oxidation Over Dual Redox Catalysts

Download or read book Methane Oxidation Over Dual Redox Catalysts written by and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catalytic oxidation of methane to partial oxidation products, primarily formaldehyde and C[sub 2] hydrocarbons, was found to be directed by the catalyst used. In this project, it was discovered that a moderate oxidative coupling catalyst for C[sub 2] hydrocarbons, zinc oxide, is modified by addition of small amounts of Cu and Fe dopants to yield fair yields of formaldehyde. A similar effect was observed with Cu/Sn/ZnO catalysts, and the presence of a redox Lewis acid, Fe[sup III] or Sn[sup IV], was found to be essential for the selectivity switch from C[sub 2] coupling products to formaldehyde. The principle of double doping with an oxygen activator (Cu) and the redox Lewis acid (Fe, Sn) was pursued further by synthesizing and testing the CuFe-ZSM-5 zeolite catalyst. The Cu[sup II](ion exchanged) Fe[sup III](framework)-ZSM-5 also displayed activity for formaldehyde synthesis, with space time yields exceeding 100 g/h-kg catalyst. However, the selectivity was low and earlier claims in the literature of selective oxidation of methane to methanol over CuFe-ZSM-5 were not reproduced. A new active and selective catalytic system (M=Sb, Bi, Sn)/SrO/La[sub 2]O[sub 3] has been discovered for potentially commercially attractive process for the conversion of methane to C[sub 2] hydrocarbons, (ii) a new principle has been demonstrated for selectivity switching from C[sub 2] hydrocarbon products to formaldehyde in methane oxidations over Cu, Fe-doped zinc oxide and ZSM-5, and (iii) a new approach has been initiated for using ultrafine metal dispersions for low temperature activation of methane for selective conversions. Item (iii) continues being supported by AMOCO while further developments related to items (i) and (ii) are the objective of our continued effort under the METC-AMOCO proposed joint program.
