Kinetic Studies on the Impact of Pd Addition to Ru/TiO2 Catalyst: Levulinic Acid to γ‑Valerolactone
under Ambient Hydrogen Pressure
Posted on 2020-06-15 - 19:07
The conversion of
levulinic acid (LA) to γ-valerolactone
(GVL) is one of the most important reactions from biomass-derived
platform chemicals to value-added chemicals. In this work, bimetallic
PdRu/TiO2 catalyst compared to monometallic Ru/TiO2 was designed for the conversion of LA to GVL at ambient H2 pressure. The highly dispersed Pd affected the reaction by
two antagonistic effects: (I) increasing the reaction rate by promoting
the activation of H2; (II) decreasing the reaction rate
by lowering the activation ability of carbonyl group over Ru. The
kinetic analysis refined by H2 concentration showed much
lower apparent activation energy over 0.2Pd1Ru/TiO2 than
that over Ru/TiO2. Finally, the catalysts were evaluated
by both GVL productivity and catalyst cost to show increasing benefit
of Pd addition at lower H2 pressure. This study offers
both theoretical foundation and application instructions for high
efficiency conversion of LA to GVL under mild conditions, especially
ambient H2 pressure.
