Study of Catalyst Deactivation in Three Different Industrial Processes, Acta Wexionensia No 106/2007. ISSN: 1404-4307, ISBN: 978-91-7636-533-5. Written in English. Deactivation of catalysts were investigated focusing on three industrial proc- esses: 1) Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) for abatement of NOx from bio- mass combustion using V2O5-WO3/TiO2 catalysts; 2) Catalytic oxidation of vola- tile organic compounds (VOC) from printing industries using a Pt/γ-Al2O3 cata- lyst; and 3) Ni and Pt/Rh catalysts used in steam reforming reaction of bio- syngas obtained from biomass gasification. The aim has been to simulate industrial conditions in laboratory experiments in order to comprehend influence of compounds affecting catalysts performance. Typical catalyst lifetimes in industrial processes are several years, which are a challenge when accelerating deactivation in laboratory scale experiments where possible exposure times are few hours or days. Catalysts can be introduced to deactivating compounds through different routes. The first method examined was gaseous exposure, which was applied to deactivate VOC oxidation catalyst through exposure of gaseous hexamethyldisiloxane. The second method involved wet impregnation and was used for impregnation of SCR catalyst with salt solu- tions. The third method was based on exposure and deposition of size selected particles of deactivating substances on the catalyst. The latter device was devel- oped during this work. It was applied to monolithic SCR catalysts as well as to pellet catalysts intended for steam reforming of biomass gasification syngas. De- activated SCR catalyst samples by size selected exposure method were verified and compared with SCR catalysts used in a commercial biomass boiler for 6 500 h. Evaluations of fresh and deactivated samples were investigated using BET surface area; chemisorption and temperature programmed desorption (TPD); sur- face morphology using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and poison pene- tration profile through SEM with an Electron Micro Probe Analyser (EMPA) also equipped with a energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS); chemical analysis of accumulation of exposed compounds by Inductively Coupled Plasma - Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-AES); and influence on catalyst performance. The size selected generated particles of deactivating substances were characterized with respect to mean diameter and number size distribution through Scanning Mobility Particle Sizer (SMPS) and mass size distribution applying an Electric Low Pressure Impactor (ELPI). Results from catalyst characterization methods were useful tools in evaluation of catalyst deactivation routes. Understanding deactivation processes and impact on catalyst performance is vital for further optimization of catalysts with respect to performance and life- time. Further research in this field can provide more resistant catalysts for appli- cation in industry leading to higher commercial benefits and further application of environmental catalysts in thermo-chemical conversion of biomass.

Academic Editor: Keith Hohn Received: 30 December 2013 / Accepted: 12 September 2014 / Published: 26 February 2015 Abstract: Deactivation of heterogeneous catalysts is a ubiquitous problem that causes loss of catalytic rate with time. This review on deactivation and regeneration of heterogeneous catalysts classifies deactivation by type (chemical, thermal, and mechanical) and by mechanism (poisoning, fouling, thermal degradation, vapor formation, vapor-solid and solid-solid reactions, and attrition/crushing). The key features and considerations for each of these deactivation types is reviewed in detail with reference to the latest literature reports in these areas. Two case studies on the deactivation mechanisms of catalysts used for cobalt Fischer-Tropsch and selective catalytic reduction are considered to provide additional depth in the topics of sintering, coking, poisoning, and fouling. Regeneration considerations and options are also briefly discussed for each deactivation mechanism. Keywords: heterogeneous catalysis; deactivation; regeneration 1. Introduction Catalyst deactivation, the loss over time of catalytic activity and/or selectivity, is a problem of great and continuing concern in the practice of industrial catalytic processes. Costs to industry for catalyst replacement and process shutdown total billions of dollars per year. Time scales for catalyst deactivation vary considerably; for example, in the case of cracking catalysts, catalyst mortality may be on the order of seconds, while in ammonia synthesis the iron catalyst may last for 5–10 years.

  • Chapter Four Role of External Sites on Catalytic Polymer Degradation
    Plastic Catalytic Degradation Study of the role of external catalytic surface, Catalytic Reusability and Temperature Effects By Toju S. Kpere-Daibo April 2009 A Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of London Department of Chemical Engineering University College London, London, WC1E 7JE 1 Abstract Technological advancements over the last century have lead large and continuous growth in the output of plastic materials. This exponential growth has created public concern over the environmental impact caused by the polymeric waste produced. These have acted as driving forces for a lot of current research aimed at the development of plastic recycle processes. As a result, the conversion of plastic waste to useful products is gaining increasing attention. The aim of this work was to study aspects of polymer catalytic degradation using zeolite based catalysts. More specifically the study focused on identifying the role of the external catalytic surface on overall polymer decomposition reactions, the reusability of the catalysts as well as temperature and acidity effects. The first stage of this investigation aimed to explore the premise behind the assumption that polymer catalytic degradation takes place initially on the external catalytic surface by selectively poisoning the external sites of a zeolite catalyst (ZSM- 5). Degradation results in a semi-batch reactor as well as thermogravimetric analysis demonstrated that the activity of poisoned catalyst samples was indeed lower than that of fresh catalyst. The next stage of the study involved an investigation of the extent of catalytic reusability of four zeolite catalysts - HZSM-5, USY and two commercial cracking catalysts containing 20 % and 40 % USY respectively.

These reactions are vital in many areas of industry including the manufacture of polymers and fine chemicals such as vitamins, fragrances, and drugs. The choice of a catalyst is a trade-off between activity, selectivity and costs. Palladium-based heterogeneous catalysts are traditionally used for these processes as they provide the activation of hydrogen at room temperatures and offers reasonable selectivity, but these catalysts have a number of practical drawbacks. This review discusses recent research work in the selective hydrogenation of alkynes on palladium-based catalysts, emphasises the mechanism and catalytic materials and important applications including alkyne removal from gas- phase alkene precursors for polymer synthesis and liquid phase selective hydrogenation for the synthesis of fine chemicals. Langmuir-Hinshelwood reaction kinetic models, reaction intermediates, formation of carbonaceous layer, the nature of active sites and the effects of reversible and irreversible adsorbates over Pd surface are discussed as well as the factors affecting catalyst activity and selectivity and how these can be optimised in synthetic protocols for these reactions.
