Research paper thumbnail of Continuous mode linoleic acid hydrogenation on Pd/sibunit catalyst

Catalysis in Industry, 2010

Catalytic hydrogenation of linoleic acid and oleic acid to stearic acid over palladium on mesopo ... more Catalytic hydrogenation of linoleic acid and oleic acid to stearic acid over palladium on mesopo rous carbon sibunit (Pd/sibunit) catalyst was studied in a continuous trickle bed reactor with the weight hourly space velocity 5.4 h-1 at 120°C and 30 bar using tall oil fatty acid (TOFA) as reactor feed. Stearic acid preparation using TOFA as a raw material is of industrial importance. Pd/sibunit catalysts with spherical par ticle shape of the size 1.62 mm were synthesized with the palladium loadings 0.5, 1, and 2 wt %. The metal dispersion (%), metal particle size (nm), as well as metallic surface area (m 2 /g metal) of the three synthesized Pd/Sibunit samples were measured by CO chemisorption. The Pd/C catalysts were tested in linoleic acid hydrogenation, showing promising behavior in terms of activity, selectivity and stability to be used in fixed bed applications. The product stream from the fixed bed reactor was saved and analyzed by X ray fluores cence (XRF) and direct current plasma (DCP) spectroscopy. The catalyst activity increased with the Pd load ing. The lowest metal loading of 0.5 wt % gave the least prone to initial deactivation and thus the most stable catalyst. This catalyst can be recommended for farther pilot testing.

This reaction can be utilized to produce renewable diesel components. The main products were undecane (decarboxylation) and undecene (decarbonylation). The catalysts were a palladium catalyst supported on mesoporous carbon, Sibunit (egg-shell type with spherical granules of 1.6-2.0 mm in diameter), and a commercial Pd/C catalyst. The challenge was to obtain a high activity and selectivity to undecane, as pure dodecanoic acid without any solvents was used. Moreover, the complete reactor system consisting of a reactant feed vessel, a pump, lines, a sampling valve, and a collector of the residue had to be heated, since saturated fatty acids with more than nine carbon atoms have a melting point exceeding 20°C. The influence of reaction conditions, such as reaction temperature (300-360°C), pressure (5-20 bar), gas flow rate, reactant concentrations, was studied. The reactant conversion increased when an inert gas (argon) flow was applied co-currently with the reactant flow. The argon pressure did not have any significant impact on the performance. The reason for the catalyst deactivation was determined to be coking.
