Role of promoters in COPPER CHROMITE (cas 11104-65-7) catalysts for hydrogenolysis of glycerol

Add time:07/24/2019    Source:sciencedirect.com

Various COPPER CHROMITE (cas 11104-65-7) catalysts with and without promoters were prepared by simultaneous co-precipitation and digestion technique and the role of promoters (Al, Ba and Zn) was investigated for hydrogenolysis of glycerol to 1,2-propylene glycol (1,2-PG) in both batch and continuous operations. Among various promoters studied, copper chromite catalyst with Ba as a promoter showed the highest activity and selectivity of 85% to 1,2-PG. This catalyst was found to be active for more than 800 h in a continuous operation also. Ammonia TPD results showed that barium promoted copper chromite catalyst had the highest acidity which facilitates the dehydration of glycerol to acetol which is the first step in hydrogenolysis of glycerol to 1,2-PG. The effect of barium content and variation in the promoters combination was also studied.
