Abstract
에틸벤젠로부터 크실렌으로의 이성질화 반응을 여러 가지 이온교환된 Y-제올라이트 촉매상에서 기상반응으로 연구하였다. 사용한 모든 촉매는 Pt와 BF3를 Y-제올라이트에 담지하였고, 제올라이트내에 존재하는 Na+이온을 Fe+++, Cr+++, Ni++ 및 Ag+ 등의 전이금속이온으로 치환하였다. 각 촉매에 대한 반응의 활성과 이성질화 반응에 대한 선택성을 고찰하였는 바, 반응온도, 반응압력, 수소/에틸벤젠의 몰비 및 액체공간속도(LWHSV)는 각각 420 ℃, 18기압, 5.9 및 1.62 gr-feed/hr·gr-cat이었다. 주 생성물은 크실렌, 벤젠 및 톨루엔이었으며 기체크로마토그라피에 의하여 분석하였다. HX-제올라이트는 높은 선택성을, HY-제올라이트는 높은 활성을 나타낸 반면 H-모더나이트는 활성과 선택성이 모두 낮은 경향을 보여주었다. HCrY-제올라이트 및 HFeY-제올라이트는 정전기적 포텐샬에 기인되는 높은 크실렌으로의 선택성을 보여준 반면, HAgY-제올라이트 및 HCoY-제올라이트는 선택성이 낮았다. 교환된 이온의 양이 많을수록 촉매의 수명은 연장되었으며, 가장 우수한 HCrY-제올라이트 촉매는 약 21 %의 이성질화 수율을 보였다.
Vapor phase isomerization of ethylbenzene to xylene has been studied on various ion-exchanged Y-zeolites. For all catalysts, Pt and BF3 were impregnated as main components on Y-zeolites and some transition metal ions were exchanged instead of Na+ within zeolites. Fe+++, Cr+++, Ni++, Co++, and Ag+ were used as transition metal ions. Both selectivity and activity of each catalyst have been investigated. The reaction temperature, reaction pressure, H2/Ethylbenzene mole ratio, and LWHSV used in the study were 420 ℃, 18 atm, 5.9, 1.62 gr-feed/hr·gr-cat, respectively. The products were analyzed by gas chromatography, and the main products were xylene, benzene, and toluene. It has been found that HX-zeolite has high selectivity and HY-zeolite has high activity, whereas H-mordenite shows both low activity and selectivity. It is also observed that zeolite of HCrY and HFeY show a trend to enhance both activity and selectivity to xylene due to electrostatic potential, whereas zeolities of HAgY and HCoY have low activity and low selectivity to xylene. As the extent of ion exchange increases, it is found that deactivation of catalyst diminishes. The yield of 21 % for isomerization was obtained using HCrY zeolite.
