The development of a novel non-sulfided catalyst with high activity for the hydrotreatment processing of plant oils, is of high interest as a way to improve the efficient production of renewable diesel. To attempt to develop such a catalyst, we first synthesized a high activity flower-like Ni-PTA catalyst used in the hydrotreatment processes of plant oils. The obtained catalyst was characterized with SEM, EDX, HRTEM, BET, XRD, H2-TPR, XPS and TGA. A probable formation mechanism of flower-like Ni(OH)2 is proposed on the basis of a range of contrasting experiments. The results of GC showed that the conversion yield of Jatropha oil was 98.95%, and the selectivity of C11-C18 alkanes was 70.93% at 360 °C, 3 MPa, and 15 h(-1). The activity of this flower-like Ni-PTA catalyst was more than 15 times higher than those of the conventional Ni-PTA/Al2O3 catalysts. Additionally, the flower-like Ni-PTA catalyst exhibited good stability during the process of plant oil hydrotreatment.
开发一种用于植物油加氢处理的新型高活性非硫化催化剂,作为提高可再生柴油高效生产的一种方法,具有很高的研究价值。为了尝试开发这样一种催化剂,我们首先合成了一种用于植物油加氢处理过程的高活性花状Ni-PTA催化剂。通过扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、能谱仪(EDX)、高分辨透射电子显微镜(HRTEM)、比表面积分析仪(BET)、X射线衍射仪(XRD)、氢气程序升温还原(H2-TPR)、X射线光电子能谱仪(XPS)和热重分析仪(TGA)对所得催化剂进行了表征。基于一系列对比实验,提出了花状Ni(OH)2可能的形成机理。气相色谱(GC)结果表明,在360 °C、3 MPa和15 h(-1)的条件下,麻风树油的转化率为98.95%,C11-C18烷烃的选择性为70.93%。这种花状Ni-PTA催化剂的活性比传统的Ni-PTA/Al2O3催化剂高出15倍以上。此外,花状Ni-PTA催化剂在植物油加氢处理过程中表现出良好的稳定性。
