Abstract:
Benzene hydroisomerization is among the promising processes converting benzene into methylcyclopentane (MCP), which is an environmentally friendlier, octane boosting component of motor fuels. Benzene hydroisomerization into MCP over the Pt/MOR/Al2O3 (MOR = mordenite) catalytic system is reported here. The dependence of the yield of the target product on the acidic properties of the support and platinum precursor ([Pt(NH 3)4]Cl2 or H2PtCl6) have been investigated in order to optimize the catalyst composition. The acidic properties of the surface have been altered by introducing 30-95 wt % alumina into the support. Catalytic activity has been measured in the hydroisomerization of cyclohexane and a benzene (20 wt %) + n-heptane (80 wt %) mixture in a flow reactor at 250-350 C, 1.5 MPa, H2: CH = 3: 1, a cyclohexane LHSV of 6 h-1, a mixed feedstock LHSV of 2 h-1, a catalyst bed volume of 2 cm3, and catalyst pellet sizes of 0.25-0.75 mm. The most efficient catalyst for cyclohexane and n-heptane isomerization and benzene hydroisomerization is the platinum-containing catalyst (0.3 wt % Pt) whose support consists of 30 wt % MOR and 70 wt % Al2O3. The highest yield of the target products of isomerization in the presence of this catalyst is attained in the temperature range from 280 to 310 C, which is thermodynamically favorable for MCP formation from benzene. This indicates that this catalyst is promising for the hydroisomerization of benzene-containing gasoline fractions. Use of H2PtCl6, a readily available chemical, as the platinum precursor is favorable for commercialization of the catalyst and ensures price attractiveness in its industrial-scale manufacturing. © 2012 Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.
