Dehydration of 1,2-propanediol to Propionaldehyde (cas 123-38-6) over zeolite catalysts

Add time:09/24/2019    Source:sciencedirect.com

Dehydration of 1,2-propanediol has been investigated over a range of zeolite catalysts with different pore structures and acidity. The reaction forms part of a two-step process for the conversion of glycerol to Propionaldehyde (cas 123-38-6). The effects of reaction temperature, concentration, space velocity, and SiO2/Al2O3 ratio have been studied. The medium pore size, unidirectional channel zeolites ZSM-23 and Theta-1 showed high activity and selectivity to propionaldehyde (exceeding 90 wt% at 300–350 °C). Selectivity to the intermolecular dehydration product 2-ethyl-4-methyl-1,3-dioxolane was high at lower temperatures for all the zeolites, but decreased to a low value at higher temperatures and lower GHSV. The results are discussed in relation to the reaction mechanism and zeolite structures. Significant deactivation was observed for higher 1,2-propanediol partial pressures, which was partially mitigated by the addition of steam.
