Trata-se de um processo que apresenta grande dificuldade de ser modelado fenomenologicamente. Dentro desse contexto surgem as redes neurais artificiais (RNA) como ferramenta de modelagem, visto que as RNA são capazes de ¿aprender¿ o que ocorre no processo por meio de um conjunto limitado de dados e apresentam um menor tempo de processamento se comparado aos modelos fenomenológicos. O objetivo principal deste trabalho é desenvolver modelos empíricos, baseados em RNA e na quimiometria, capazes de relacionar as variáveis de entrada com as variáveis de saída do processo de craqueamento catalítico fluido (planta piloto e unidade industrial). Os dados experimentais foram obtidos na unidade piloto de FCC da Petrobrás localizada na usina de xisto em São Mateus do Sul ¿ PR e os dados industriais foram obtidos da unidade de RLAM localizada em São Francisco do Conde ¿ BA. Para uma boa performance das redes foi utilizada a técnica de análise dos componentes principais (PCA) para um pré-processamento dos dados e em seguida foram usadas redes MLP com os seguintes algoritmos de treinamento supervisionado: Método de Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno (BFGS), Método do Gradiente Conjugado Escalonado (SCG) e Levenberg-Marquardt (LM)... Observação: O resumo, na íntegra, poderá ser visualizado no texto completo da tese digital / Abstract: The fluidized bed catalytic cracking process is one of the most important refining processes. It produces, among other distillates, gasoline and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). It is very difficult to model it by fundamental balances. On the other hand, artificial neural networks (ANN) offer convenient tools to describe complex processes. They are able to learn what is going on with in the process through a limited amount of information, requiring less computing time than phenomenological modeling. The main objective of this work was to develop empirical models ¿ based on ANNs and chemometrics ¿ able to relate input and output variables of the FCC process, using data from a pilot and from an industrial plant. Experimental data were obtained from the Petrobras FCC pilot plant located in São Mateus do Sul, Parané, nd from the Petrobras Landulpho Alves Refinery PCC industrial plant located in São Francisco do Conde, Bahia. The principal component analysis (PCA) technique was initially used to preprocess the data. Artificial neural networks were then employed with the following supervising training algorithms: Broyden-Fletcher-Godfarb-Shanno (BFGS), Scale Conjugated Gradient (SCG) and Levenberg-Marquardt (LM). Methods devised to increase the artificial network prediction power were also used...

Synthese-Eigenschafts-Beziehungen von mikro-/mesoporösen Alumosilicaten und deren Mischphasen bei der Umsetzung von Oxygenaten

Gille, Torsten 16 June 2020 (has links)
Diese Arbeit befasst sich mit der katalytischen Umsetzung von oxygenierten Kohlenwasserstoffen in einem Strömungsrohrreaktor bei 500 °C an mikroporösem Alumosilicat ZSM-5, an dem mesoporösem Alumosilicat Al-MCM-41 sowie an deren Mischphasen. Anhand der katalytischen Untersuchungen ist es möglich, für verschiedene Anforderungen an das Produktspektrum Empfehlungen an die Eigenschaften des zu verwendeten Katalysatorsystems zu formulieren. Hierfür wurden Untersuchungen zum Einfluss relevanter Syntheseprozessparameter auf die Zusammensetzung von Al-MCM-41/ZSM-5-Mischphasen vorgenommen. Die Synthese solcher Mischphasen wurde über einen 'Zwei-Template/Ein-Schritt“-Ansatz durchgeführt, der es erlaubte, die an das Katalysatorsystem gestellten Anforderungen durch eine geeignete Wahl der Syntheseparameter zu genügen. Während der Synthese der Al-MCM-41/ZSM-5-Mischphasen beobachtet man drei sich gegenseitig beeinflussenden Vorgänge, die durch, in der wässrigen Syntheselösung vorliegende, alumosilicatische Komponenten miteinander verknüpft sind: Die Auflösung und anschließende Restrukturierung einer nicht-porösen amorphen Phase, die Auflösung und Restrukturierung einer mesoporösen Al-MCM-41-Phase und die Kristallisation einer mikroporösen ZSM-5-Phase. Durch die Erhöhung des Al-Anteils im Synthesegel werden die ZSM-5-Kristallisation verlangsamt und der Schwerpunkt des Gleichgewichts dieser drei Vorgänge für einen gegebenen Reaktionszeitpunkt in Richtung der Bildung der mesoporösen Al-MCM-41-Phase verlagert. Der Einfluss des, in das jeweilige Katalysatorsystem eingebauten Aluminiums auf die katalytische Umsetzung von Oxygenaten manifestiert sich für die beiden Alumosilicate ZSM¬ 5 und Al MCM-41 auf verschiedene Weise. Eine Erhöhung des Al-Anteils in einem mikroporösen ZSM-5-Katalysatorsystem begünstigt den Verlauf von bimolekularen Reaktionen. Dies äußert sich in einem verstärkten Auftreten von Paraffin-bildenden Raktionen wie die Wasserstoff-Transfer-Reaktionen und/oder die Carboniumionen-Spaltung sowie in einer Dominanz von Aromaten-bildenen Reaktionen wie die Cyclisierung mit anschließender Dehydrierung und Aromatisierung. Dieser Effekt kann bei einer Erhöhung des Al-Anteils in einem mesoporösen Al-MCM-41-Katalysatorsystem nur im geringen Maße beobachtet werden. Jedoch nimmt mit sinkendem Si/Al-Verhältnis in beiden Katalysatorsystemen der Anteil an Produkten mit drei oder vier Kohlenstoffatomen zu. Zudem kann dabei eine beginnende Unabhängigkeit des gebildeten Produktspektrums von der Kettenlänge und der funktionellen Gruppe des umgesetzten Oxygenats beobachtet werden.:Inhaltsverzeichnis 1 Einleitung und Problemstellung 1 2 Grundlagen 4 2.1 Hydrothermale Synthese von Alumosilicaten 4 2.1.1 WÄSSRIGE CHEMIE UND HYDROTHERMALE BEHANDLUNG VON ALUMOSILICATEN 4 2.1.2 STRUKTUR UND BILDUNGSMECHANISMUS VON AL-MCM-41 5 2.1.3 STRUKTUR UND BILDUNGSMECHANISMUS VON ZSM-5 6 2.2 Katalytische Spaltung von Kohlenwasserstoffen an Alumosilicaten 9 2.2.1 NATUR UND LOKALISIERUNG VON SÄUREZENTREN 9 2.2.2 KOHLENWASSERSTOFF-POOL-MECHANISMUS UND VERKOKUNG 10 3 Experimentelles Vorgehen und analytische Messverfahren 14 3.1 Syntheseroute zur Herstellung von Al MCM 41/ZSM 5-Mischphasen, Al MCM 41 und ZSM-5 14 3.1.1 AL MCM 41/ZSM 5 MISCHPHASEN 14 3.1.2 AL-MCM-41 17 3.1.3 ZSM-5 17 3.2 Datenerhebung und -auswertung relevanter physikalisch-chemischer und festkörperanalytischer Charakterisierungsmethoden 17 3.2.1 PULVER-RÖNTGENDIFFRAKTOMETRIE 17 3.2.2 N2-PHYSISORPTION 19 3.2.3 TEMPERATUR-PROGRAMMIERTE AMMONIAK-DESORPTION 21 3.2.4 ELEMENTARANALYSE 23 3.2.5 27AL MAS NMR 24 3.2.6 THERMOGRAVIMETRISCHE ANALYSE 25 3.3 Katalytische Austestung und Analyse der Messdaten 26 3.3.1 VERSUCHSDURCHFÜHRUNG 26 3.3.2 ANALYSE UND AUSWERTUNG KATALYTISCHER MESSDATEN 27 3.3.3 DURCHGEFÜHRTE KATALYTISCHE TESTMESSUNGEN 29 4 Untersuchungen zum Bildungsmechanismus von Al MCM 41/ZSM 5-Mischphasen 33 4.1 Mechanistische Deutung 33 4.1.1 VORBETRACHTUNG 33 4.1.2 REAKTIONSABLAUF 34 4.1.3 UNTERSUCHUNG DER MESOPOROSITÄT 39 4.1.4 MORPHOLOGISCHE BETRACHTUNG 43 4.2 Wechselwirkungen der „Beeinflussungsfaktoren“ 45 4.2.1 EFFEKT VERSCHIEDENER AUTOKLAV-TYPEN 45 4.2.2 EFFEKT DES AL-ANTEILS IM SYNTHESEGEL 48 4.2.3 SYMBIOTISCHE EINFLUSSNAHME VON ALUMINIUM UND TENSIDEN 50 5 Charakterisierung verwendeter Katalysatormaterialien 52 5.1 ZSM-5 52 5.2 Al-MCM-41 57 5.3 Physikalische Mischungen aus Al-MCM-41 und ZSM-5 60 6 Katalytisches Spalten von Oxygenaten an ZSM 5 64 6.1 Katalytisches Spalten von Alkohol-Oxygenaten an ZSM 5 in Abhängigkeit des Si/Al Verhältnisses 64 6.1.1 PRODUKTANALYSE ANHAND DER KOHLENSTOFFANZAHL IM PRODUKTMOLEKÜL 65 6.1.2 PRODUKTANALYSE ANHAND EINZELNER STOFFGRUPPEN 68 6.2 Katalytisches Spalten von Carbonyl-Oxygenaten an ZSM 5 in Abhängigkeit des Si/Al Verhältnisses 71 6.2.1 PRODUKTANALYSE ANHAND DER KOHLENSTOFFANZAHL IM PRODUKTMOLEKÜL 72 6.2.2 PRODUKTANALYSE ANHAND EINZELNER STOFFGRUPPEN 76 6.3 Ableitung eines Kohlenwasserstoff-Pool Mechanismus zur Beschreibung des katalytischen Spaltens von Oxygenaten an ZSM 5 80 6.3.1 VEREINHEITLICHUNG DES OXYGENAT FEEDS ÜBER DESSEN DEOXYGENIERUNG 81 6.3.2 ASSIMILATION KURZKETTIGER OLEFINE DURCH EINEN KATALYTISCH AKTIVEN BEREICH 83 6.3.3 EINFLUSS DES PORENSYSTEMS UND AL-ANTEILS IM KATALYSATORSYSTEMS 85 6.3.4 BESCHREIBUNG DER PRODUKTBILDUNG EINZELNER STOFFGRUPPEN IN ABHÄNGIGKEIT WESENTLICHER REAKTIONSBEDINGUNGEN 87 7 Katalytisches Spalten von Triacylglyceriden an Al MCM 41 und physikalischen Mischungen aus Al-MCM-41 und ZSM-5 92 7.1 Gegenüberstellung des katalytischen Spaltens von Ethyloctanoat an Al MCM 41 und ZSM 5 in Abhängigkeit des Si/Al Verhältnisses 92 7.2 Anwendung des Kohlenwasserstoff-Pool Mechanismus zur Beschreibung des katalytischen Spaltens von Triacylglyceriden an physikalischen Mischungen aus Al MCM-41 und ZSM-5 97 7.3 Synthese-Struktur-Wirkungsprinzip 103 8 Zusammenfassung und Ausblick 106 Literatur 112 Abbildungsverzeichnis 127 Tabellenverzeichnis 139 Abkürzungsverzeichnis 141 Anhang 142 Veröffentlichungen 165 Eidesstattliche Erklärung 168

Aprovechamiento y mejora de crudos extrapesados

Corresa Mateu, Elena 20 October 2023 (has links)
[ES] Durante la presente tesis doctoral se ha desarrollado un proceso de mejora parcial in-situ en superficie de un crudo extrapesado que ha permitido obtener un buen rendimiento a un crudo sintético que cumple con las especificaciones necesarias para ser transportado a través de un oleoducto, esto es, un crudo sintético con una gravedad API superior a 19, una viscosidad inferior a los 300 cSt y libre de asfaltenos. Además, se ha conseguido eliminar prácticamente el 99% en peso de los metales, níquel y vanadio, presentes en el crudo de partida, lo que facilita el posterior procesado de este crudo sintético en una refinería. Las reacciones necesarias para desarrollar este proceso se han llevado a cabo utilizado una unidad Micro-Downer (MDU). Dicha unidad consta de un reactor de lecho transportado descendente y permite obtener resultados a nivel de laboratorio similares a los que se obtendrían al procesar cualquier crudo en un reactor tipo FCC a escala industrial. Se han estudiado las condiciones de reacción (temperatura, tiempo de residencia y relación sólido a carga) más adecuadas para llevar a cabo el craqueo térmico de un crudo extrapesado en este tipo de reactores. Asimismo, se ha encontrado que entre varios materiales sólidos con diferentes propiedades ácidas y texturales, es con el caolín, una arcilla natural con un cierto grado de porosidad residual en su estructura cristalina, con el que se obtiene el mayor rendimiento a productos líquidos que cumplen los requisitos de densidad y viscosidad necesarios para poder ser transportados a través de un oleoducto. Estos resultados se han obtenido tras llevar a cabo la reacción en condiciones no severas (530ºC, 0,3 s de tiempo de residencia y una relación sólido a carga de 8 g g¿1), y que por tanto no requieren de un elevado gasto energético. En contrapartida, se ha detectado que con cada uno de los sólidos utilizados y en cualquiera de las condiciones de operación estudiadas, todos los crudos sintéticos recogidos son inestables con respecto a la floculación de los asfaltenos. Con el fin de subsanar esta limitación de la tesis doctoral, en el apartado siguiente se ha intentado eliminar la fracción de asfaltenos de los líquidos finales. Para ello se ha utilizado, ya sea como sustituto del caolín o como aditivo junto a él, un material sólido con actividad para el craqueo de fondo (BCA, del inglés Bottom Cracking Additive). De este modo se pretende eliminar esta fracción de asfaltenos mediante craqueo catalítico, dando lugar a la formación de otras fracciones más ligeras de crudo, y/o mediante reacciones de condensación dan- do lugar a la formación de coque. En este apartado ha quedado demostrado que la presencia de un cierto grado de acidez, aunque residual, en el sólido de intercambio de calor empleado para procesar un crudo extrapesado como el utilizado para realizar este estudio, conlleva un incremento en el rendimiento a coque cuya principal consecuencia es una importante bajada en el rendimiento a crudo sintético final sin que, en contrapartida, se consiga eliminar el problema de la presencia de asfaltenos en los líquidos finales. Tras comprobar que para obtener crudos sintéticos estables con respecto a la fioculación de los asfaltenos es necesario eliminar la fracción residuo, es decir, los hidrocarburos con puntos de ebullición superior a los 537ºC, el siguiente paso se ha centrado en encontrar una combinación de etapas con las que sea posible convertir, o reciclar hasta la extinción, esta fracción residuo. Con este fin se han ideado tres estrategias de procesos de mejora y se han llevado a cabo estimaciones teóricas que nos han permitido conocer la mejor estrategia de procesado para obtener el mayor rendimiento a crudo sintético estable. Finalmente, la validez de este nuevo procesos se ha estimado comparando estos resultados experimentales obtenidos a escala de laboratorio con los generados al procesar este mismo crudo extrapesado en una planta piloto de delayed coking. / [CA] Durant la present tesi doctoral s'ha desenvolupat un procés de millora parcial in-*situ en superfície d'un cru extrapesado que ha permès obtenir un bon rendiment a un cru sintètic que compleix amb les especificacions necessàries per a ser transportat a través d'un oleoducte, això és, un cru sintètic amb una gravetat API superior a 19, una viscositat inferior als 300 cSt i lliure de asfaltenos. A més, s'ha aconseguit eliminar pràcticament el 99% en pes dels metalls, níquel i vanadi, presents en el cru de partida, la qual cosa facilita el posterior processament d'aquest cru sintètic en una refineria. Les reaccions necessàries per a desenvolupar aquest procés s'han dut a terme utilitzat una unitat Micro-Downer (MDU). Aquesta unitat consta d'un reactor de llit transportat descendent i permet obtenir resultats a nivell de laboratori similars als que s'obtindrien en processar qualsevol cru en un reactor tipus FCC a escala industrial. S'han estudiat les condicions de reacció (temperatura, temps de residència i relació sòlid a càrrega) més adequades per a dur a terme el craqueig tèrmic d'un cru extrapesado en aquest tipus de reactors. Així mateix, s'ha trobat que entre diversos materials sòlids amb diferents propietats àcides i texturales, és amb el caolí, una argila natural amb un cert grau de porositat residual en la seua estructura cristal·lina, amb el qual s'obté el major rendiment a productes líquids que compleixen els requisits de densitat i viscositat necessaris per a poder ser transportats a través d'un oleoducte. Aquests resultats s'han obtingut després de dur a terme la reacció en condicions no severes (530 °C, 0,3 s de temps de residència i una relació sòlid a càrrega de 8 g g1), i que per tant no requereixen d'una elevada despesa energètica. En contrapartida, s'ha detectat que amb cadascun dels sòlids utilitzats i en qualsevol de les condicions d'operació estudiades, tots els crus sintètics arreplegats són inestables respecte a la floculació dels asfaltenos. Amb la finalitat d'esmenar aquesta limitació de la tesi doctoral, en l'apartat següent s'ha intentat eliminar la fracció de asfaltenos dels líquids finals. Per a això s'ha utilitzat, ja siga com a substitut del caolí o com a additiu al costat d'ell, un material sòlid amb activitat per al craqueig de fons (BCA, de l'anglès Bottom Cracking Additive). D'aquesta manera es pretén eliminar aquesta fracció de asfaltenos mitjançant craqueig catalític, donant lloc a la formació d'altres fraccions més lleugeres de cru, i/o mitjançant reaccions de condensació donen- do lloc a la formació de coc. En aquest apartat ha quedat demostrat que la presència d'un cert grau d'acidesa, encara que residual, en el sòlid d'intercanvi de calor emprada per a processar un cru extrapesado com l'utilitzat per a realitzar aquest estudi, comporta un increment en el rendiment a coc la principal conseqüència del qual és una important baixada en el rendiment a cru sintètic final sense que, en contrapartida, s'aconseguisca eliminar el problema de la presència de asfaltenos en els líquids finals. Després de comprovar que per a obtenir crus sintètics estables respecte a la fioculación dels asfaltenos és necessari eliminar la fracció residu, és a dir, els hidrocarburs amb punts d'ebullició superior als 537 °C, el següent pas s'ha centrat en trobar una combinació d'etapes amb les quals siga possible convertir, o reciclar fins a l'extinció, aquesta fracció residu. A aquest efecte s'han ideat tres estratègies de processos de millora i s'han dut a terme estimacions teòriques que ens han permès conèixer la millor estratègia de processament per a obtenir el major rendiment a cru sintètic estable. Finalment, la validesa d'aquest nou processos s'ha estimat comparant aquests resultats experimentals obtinguts a escala de laboratori amb els generats en processar aquest mateix cru extrapesado en una planta pilot de delayed coking. / [EN] During this doctoral thesis it has been developed an in-situ extra-heavy crude oil partial upgrading process that has allowed to obtain a good yield to a synthetic crude oil that meets the requirements of density and viscosity to be transported through a pipeline, that is, a synthetic crude with an API gravity grater than 19, a viscosity of less than 300 cSt and free of asphaltenes. Furthermore, practically all the metals, nickel and vanadium, have been removed from the starting extra-heavy crude oil, which greatly facilitates the further processing of this syncrude in a refinery. In order to develop this process a study has been conducted to determine the ideal reaction conditions (temperature, residence time and solid to oil ratio) to carry out the thermal cracking reaction of an extra-heavy crude oil in a downflow transported bed reactor. Moreover, it has been found that among several solid materials with different acidities and textural properties, it is the Kaolín, a natural clay with a small degree of porosity in its crystalline structure, which yields the largest amount of synthetic crude with the density and viscosity values required to be transported through an oil pipeline. These results have been obtained after performing the reaction under non-severe conditions (530ºC, 0.3 seconds and 8g g¿1) and therefore do not require a high energy expenditure. However, the liquids collected after each of the reactions carried out are unstable with respect to asphaltene flocculation, regardless of the solid heat exchanger or the reaction conditions used. To overcome this shortcoming, the next step has focused on eliminating asphaltenes from the synthetic crude. To do so, it has been employed, either alone or as an additive together with kaolin, a heat exchange solid with a certain grade of activity to performe the catalytic cracking of heavy molecules (BCA, Bottom Cracking Additive). This would allow asphaltenes removal by means of catalytic cracking reactions, giving rise to lighter hydrocarbons formation, and/or by means of condensation reactions, giving rise to coke formation. In this section it has been concluded that, due to the characteristics of the composition of the extraheavy crude oil used in the present study, the presence of any kind of acidity on the solid used as heat exchanger lead to a such increase in coke yield, with the concomitant reduction in the yield to syncrude, that made its used inadvisable. In addition, asphaltene flocculation continues to be observed within the reduced amount of liquids collected. So that, after assuming that in order to obtain stable liquids respect asphaltenes flocculation it is mandatory to get a syncrude free of residue fraction, hydrocarbon products with boiling points higher than 537ºC, in the next section has been analyzed the combination of different process steps to either thermally convert or recycle to extinction this heavy hydrocarbons fraction. Three different strategies of improvement processes have been schematized and the best one to produce the greatest amount of stable synthetic crude has been determined through theoretical calculations. Finally, this new partial upgrading process has been assessed by comparing these results obtained experimentally in the laboratory with the ones obtained after processing the same extraheavy crude oil in a Delayed Coking pilot plant. / Corresa Mateu, E.

Production of renewable biofuels and chemicals by processing bio-feedstock in conventional petroleum refineries

Vu, Xuan Hoan, Nguyen, Sura, Dang, Thanh Tung, Armbruster, Udo, Martin, Andreas 09 December 2015 (has links)
The influence of catalyst characteristics, i.e., acidity and porosity on the product distribution in the cracking of triglyceride-rich biomass under fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) conditions is reported. It has found that the degradation degree of triglyceride molecules is strongly dependent on the catalysts’ acidity. The higher density of acid sites enhances the conversion of triglycerides to lighter products such as gaseous products and gasoline-range hydrocarbons. The formation of gasolinerange aromatics and light olefins (propene and ethene) is favored in the medium pore channel of H-ZSM-5. On the other hand, heavier olefins such as gasoline-range and C4 olefins are formed preferentially in the large pore structure of zeolite Y based FCC catalyst (Midas-BSR). With both catalysts, triglyceride molecules are mainly converted to a mixture of hydrocarbons, which can be used as liquid fuels and platform chemicals. Hence, the utilization of the existing FCC units in conventional petroleum refineries for processing of triglyceride based feedstock, in particular waste cooking oil may open the way for production of renewable liquid fuels and chemicals in the near future. / Bài báo trình bày kết quả nghiên cứu khả năng tích hợp sản xuất nhiên liệu sinh học và hóa phẩm từ nguồn nguyên liệu tái tạo sinh khối giầu triglyceride bằng công nghệ cracking xúc tác tấng sôi (FCC) trong nhà máy lọc dầu. Kết quả nghiên cứu cho thấy xúc tác có ảnh hưởng mạnh đến hiệu quả chuyển hóa triglyceride thành hydrocarbon. Tính acid của xúc tác càng mạnh thì độ chuyển hóa càng cao và thu được nhiều sản phẩm nhẹ hơn như xăng và các olefin nhẹ. Xúc tác vi mao quản trung bình như H-ZSM-5 có độ chọn lọc cao với hợp chất vòng thơm thuộc phân đoạn xăng và olefin nhẹ như propylen và ethylen. Với kích thước vi mao quản lớn, xúc tác công nghiệp FCC dựa trên zeolite Y ưu tiên hình thành C4 olefins và các olefin trong phân đoạn xăng. Ở điều kiện phản ứng của quá trình FCC, triglyceride chuyển hóa hiệu quả thành hydrocarbon mà có thể sử dụng làm xăng sinh học cho động cơ và olefin nhẹ làm nguyên liệu cho tổng hợp hóa dầu.

Low-carbon hydrogen production from waste plastics via pyrolysis and in-line catalytic cracking process / Vätgasproduktion med låga kolutsläpp av plastavfall via pyrolys kombinerad med katalytisk reformering

Jin, Yanghao January 2022 (has links)
This study develops a novel pyrolysis process combined with in-line catalytic reforming toproduce high purity hydrogen and carbon products from waste plastics. The input resource is waste plastic material in the form of discarded Covid masks. Results show that for the optimized pyrolysis followed by in-line biochar-based catalytic reforming process, the hydrogen yield is 98.2 mg/g-mask (up to 87% purity), and the carbonyield is 642.4 mg/g-mask, with over 70% of the waste plastic being completely cracked to elemental carbon and hydrogen. The overall process has virtually no CO2 emissions. The use of biomass char catalysts has been studied to contribute to increased hydrogen yield. This is because the unique porous structure of the biochar catalyst increases the residence time of the pyrolysis vapor in the catalytic layer, allowing sufficient cracking of the macromolecular vapor, therefore, increasing the hydrogen yield. The process is also facilitated by the cracking temperature, which increases the cracking of the pyrolysis vapor, resulting in an increase in char yield. However, high temperatures may breakdown the structure of the biomass char catalyst, causing more of the pyrolysis vapor to be converted to CH4, reducing the hydrogen yield. The optimum hydrogen yield was obtained at process parameters of a Biochar catalyst-to-Maskratio (C/M ratio) of 2 and a cracking temperature of 900 oC. / Detta examensarbete utvecklar en ny pyrolysprocess kombinerad med en katalytisk reformeringsprocess i följd för att producera högrenade väte- och kolprodukter från plastavfall. Resursen till processen består av avfallsprodukter i form av kasserade munskydd. Resultaten visar att för den optimerade pyrolys- och biokol-katalytiska reformeringsprocessen är vätgasavkastningen 98,2 mg/g plastavfall (upp till 87 % renhet) och kolavkastningen 642,4 mg/g plastavfall, med över 70 % av plastavfallet fullständigt knäckt till enkla kol- och vätemolekyler. Den genomgripande processen har praktiskt taget inga koldioxidutsläpp. Användningen av biokol-katalysatorer av biomassa har studerats för att bidra till ett ökat vätgasutbyte. Detta beror på att biokolkatalysatorns unika porösa struktur ökar uppehållstiden för pyrolysångorna i det katalytiska skiktet, vilket möjliggör tillräcklig krackning av de makromolekylära ångorna och därmed ökar vätgasutbytet. Processen underlättas också av krackningstemperaturen, som ökar krackningen av pyrolysångorna, vilket leder till ökad kolavkastning. Höga temperaturer kan dock bryta ned strukturen hos katalysatorn för biomassakol, vilket gör att en större del av pyrolysångorna omvandlas till CH4, vilket minskar vätgasutbytet. Det optimala vätgasutbytet uppnåddes vid C/M-parameter (katalysator-till-munskydd förhållande) = 2och en krackningstemperatur på 900 0C.

One of the most important members of this family is the MCM-41, which has a hexagonal array of mesopores with pore diameters ranging from 2 to 10 nm and a high surface area, enabling it to become very promising for the use as a catalyst in the refining of oil in the catalytic cracking process, since the mesopores facilitate the access of large hydrocarbon molecules, thereby increasing the production of light products, that are in high demand in the market. The addition of aluminum in the structure of MCM-41 increases the acidity of the material, making it more beneficial for application in the petrochemical industry. The mesoporous materials MCM-41 and Al-MCM-41 (ratio Si / Al = 50) were synthesized through the hydrothermal method, starting with silica gel, NaOH and distilled water. CTMABr was used as template, for structural guiding. In Al-MCM-41 the same reactants were used, with the adding of pseudoboehmite (as a source of aluminum) in the synthesis gel. The syntheses were carried out over a period of four days with a daily adjustment of pH. The optimum conditions of calcination for the removal of the organic template (CTMABr) were discovered through TG / DTG and also through analysis by XRD, FTIR and Nitrogen Adsorption. It was found that both the method of hydrothermal synthesis and calcination conditions of the studies based on TG were promising for the production of mesoporous materials with a high degree of hexagonal array. The acidic properties of the materials were determined by desorption of n-butylamine via thermogravimetry. One proved that the addition of aluminum in the structure of MCM-41 promoted an increase in the acidity of the catalyst. To check the catalytic activity of these materials, a sample of Atmospheric Residue (RAT) that is derived from atmospheric distillation of oil from the Pole of Guamar?- RN was used. This sample was previously characterized by various techniques such as Thermogravimetry, FTIR and XRF, where through thermal analysis of a comparative study between the thermal degradation of the RAT, the RAT pyrolysis + MCM-41 and RAT + Al- MCM-41. It was found that the Al-MCM-41 was most satisfactory in the promotion of a catalytic effect on the pyrolysis of the RAT, as the cracking of heavy products in the waste occurred at temperatures lower than those observed for the pyrolysis with MCM-41, and thereby also decreasing the energy of activation for the process and increasing the rates of conversion of residue into lighter products / No presente trabalho, foram sintetizados materiais mesoporos da fam?lia M41S que foram descobertos no in?cio dos anos 90 por pesquisadores da Mobil Oil Corporation, possibilitando assim novas perspectivas no ramo da cat?lise. Um dos mais importantes membros desta fam?lia ? o MCM-41, que possui um arranjo hexagonal de mesoporos com di?metros de poros entre 2 a 10 nm e uma alta ?rea superficial, tornando-o bastante promissor para ser utilizado como catalisador no refino do petr?leo para o craqueamento catal?tico, j? que seus mesoporos facilitam o acesso de mol?culas grandes de hidrocarbonetos, aumentando assim a produ??o de produtos leves com uma alta demanda no mercado. A adi??o de alum?nio na estrutura do MCM-41 aumenta a acidez do material, tornando-o mais positivo para aplica??o na ind?stria petroqu?mica. Os materiais mesoporosos do tipo MCM-41 e Al-MCM- 41 (raz?o Si/Al=50) foram sintetizados atrav?s do m?todo hidrot?rmico partindo da S?lica gel, NaOH e ?gua destilada. Como direcionador estrutural foi utilizado CTMABr. Para o Al- MCM-41 utilizaram-se os mesmos reagentes acrescentando a pseudobohemita (fonte de alum?nio) no gel de s?ntese. As s?nteses foram realizadas durante um per?odo de quatro dias com corre??o di?ria de pH. As melhores condi??es de calcina??o para remo??o do direcionador org?nico (CTMABr) foram otimizadas por TG/DTG e atrav?s de an?lises por DRX, FTIR e adsor??o de nitrog?nio verificou-se que tanto o m?todo de s?ntese hidrot?rmica como as condi??es de calcina??o baseado nos estudos por TG foram promissores para produ??o de materiais mesoporosos com alto grau de ordena??o hexagonal. As propriedades ?cidas dos materiais foram determinadas pela dessor??o de n- butilamina via termogravimetria. Comprovou-se que a adi??o de alum?nio na estrutura do MCM-41 promoveu um aumento na acidez deste catalisador. Para verificar a atividade catal?tica desses materiais utilizou-se uma amostra do Res?duo Atmosf?rico (RAT) que ? proveniente da destila??o atmosf?rica do petr?leo proveniente do P?lo de Guamar?- RN previamente caracterizado por v?rias t?cnicas como: Termogravimetria, FTIR e FRX, realizando-se atrav?s da an?lise t?rmica um estudo comparativo entre a degrada??o t?rmica do RAT, pir?lise do RAT+MCM-41 e RAT+Al-MCM-41. Verificou-se que o Al-MCM-41 promoveu um efeito catal?tico mais satisfat?rio na pir?lise do RAT, j? que o craqueamento dos produtos pesados presentes no res?duo ocorreu em temperaturas inferiores ?s observadas para a pir?lise com MCM-41 e com isso diminuindo tamb?m a energia de ativa??o para o processo, bem como aumentando os valores de convers?o do res?duo em produtos leves

These solids were characterized by X-ray fluorescence (XRF), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TG/DTG), infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), nitrogen porosimetry and ethanol dehydration, aiming to active sites identify. Taken together, the analyses indicated that the synthesis method has employed to obtain materials highly ordered mesostructures with large average pore sizes and high surface area, besides suggested that the lanthanum was incorporated in the SBA-15 both into the framework as well as within the mesopores. Catalytic dehydration of ethanol over the LaSBA-15(pH) products has shown that they have weak Lewis acid and basic functionalities, indicative of the presence of lanthanum oxide in these samples, especially on the La75SBA-15(pH) sample, which has presented the highest selectivity to ethylene. The buriti oil thermal and thermal catalytic cracking, realized from the room temperature to 450 ?C in a simple distillation system, has allowed obtaining two liquid fractions, each consisting of two phases, one aqueous and another organic, organic liquid (OL). The OL obtained from first fractions has shown high acid index, even in the thermal catalytic process. One the other hand, OL coming from second ones, called green diesel (GD), have presented low acid index, particularly that one obtained from the thermal catalytic process realized over LaSBA-15(pH) samples. The acid sites presence in these samples, associated to their large average pore sizes and high surface areas, have allowed them, especially the La75SBA-15(pH), to present deoxygenating activity in the buriti oil thermal catalytic cracking, providing an oxygenates content reduction, particularly carboxylic acids, in the GD. Furthermore, the GD comes from the second liquid fraction obtained in the buriti oil thermal catalytic cracking over this latest solid sample has shown hydrocarbons composition and physic-chemical properties similar to that mineral diesel, beyond sulfur content low / Com o objetivo de obter um biocombust?vel semelhante ao diesel mineral, materiais nano-estruturados do tipo SBA-15 com lant?nio incorporado, LaSBA-15(pH), com raz?es molares Si/La = 75, 50 e 25, foram sintetizados em dois est?gios, com ajuste do pH do gel de s?ntese a 6, e utilizados como s?lidos catal?ticos no craqueamento termocatal?tico de ?leo de buriti. As amostras s?lidas foram caracterizadas por fluoresc?ncia de raios-X (FRX), difra??o de raios-X (DRX), an?lise termogravim?trica (TG/DTG), espectroscopia na regi?o do infravermelho (FTIR), adsor??o-dessor??o de nitrog?nio e desidrata??o de etanol, para identifica??o dos s?tios ativos. Os resultados destas caracteriza??es indicaram que o m?todo de s?ntese empregado proporcionou a obten??o de materiais mesoestruturados altamente ordenados com grande di?metro m?dio de poros e elevada ?rea superficial, al?m de sugerir que o lant?nio foi incorporado na SBA-15 tanto no interior das paredes, quanto dentro dos mesoporos. A desidrata??o catal?tica de etanol sobre os s?lidos LaSBA-15(pH) mostrou que eles apresentam s?tios ?cidos e b?sicos de Lewis, indicativo da presen?a de ?xido de lant?nio nestes, especialmente na amostra La75SBA-15(pH), que apresentou a maior seletividade para etileno. Os craqueamentos t?rmico e termocatal?ticos do ?leo de buriti, realizados da temperatura ambiente a 450 ?C em um sistema de destila??o simples, possibilitaram a obten??o de duas fra??es l?quidas, compostas por duas fases, uma aquosa e outra org?nica, l?quido org?nico (LO). O LO obtido a partir das primeiras fra??es apresentou ?ndice de acidez muito elevado, at? mesmo nos processos termocatal?ticos. Por outro lado, o LO oriundo das segundas fra??es, denominado de diesel verde (DV), apresentou baixo ?ndice de acidez, particularmente aquele obtido nos processos realizados sobre as amostras LaSBA-15(pH). Os s?tios ?cidos presentes nestas amostras, associados aos seus grandes di?metros m?dios de poros e ?s elevadas ?reas superficiais, permitiram que elas, especialmente a La75SBA-15(pH), apresentassem atividade desoxigenante no craqueamento temocatal?tico do ?leo de buriti, ocasionando uma diminui??o da concentra??o de oxigenados no DV, particularmente ?cidos carbox?licos. Al?m disso, o DV obtido sobre esta ?ltima amostra s?lida apresentou composi??o de hidrocarbonetos e propriedades f?sico-qu?micas semelhantes ?s do diesel mineral, al?m de um baixo teor de enxofre

Desenvolvimento de materiais híbridos micro-mesoporosos do tipo ZSM-12/MCM-MCM-41 para utilização no craqueamento de frações de petróleo

Santana, Joselaine Carvalho 27 June 2014 (has links)
The development of micro-mesoporous hybrid aims to obtain materials with improved characteristics, since it tries to bring together to high acidity and thermal and hydrothermal stability of zeolites, with larger pore system and consequently better chance of diffusion of molecules within the mesoporous materials. Micro-mesoporous hybrid materials of ZSM-12/MCM-41 type with different micro and mesoporosity contributions were prepared by a procedure that uses the desilicalization of the zeolite in an alkaline medium, followed by recrystallization on the mesostructure, where the zeolite is used as the silica source in the formation of mesoporous phase. The ZSM-12 pure zeolite and MCM-41 pure were also prepared. The materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, nitrogen adsorption-desorption at 77 K, scanning electron microscopy, infrared absorption spectroscopy and thermal analysis. The catalytic activity of these was analyzed in the catalytic cracking of cumene. The results shown that the methodology utilized is efficient to obtain hybrid materials of ZSM-12/MCM-41 type with micro-and mesoporosity optimized, and catalytic tests showed that the hybrid have the potential for cracking reactions, showing better results than the pure materials, pointing to it, the existing synergistic effect in these. / O desenvolvimento de híbridos micro-mesoporosos visa a obtenção de materiais com características melhoradas, uma vez que busca unir a elevada acidez e estabilidade térmica e hidrotérmica das zeólitas, com o maior sistema de poros e consequentemente melhor possibilidade de difusão de moléculas dos materiais mesoporosos. Materiais híbridos micro-mesoporosos do tipo ZSM-12/MCM-41 com diferentes contribuições de micro e mesoporosidade foram preparados por meio de um procedimento que se utiliza da dessilicalização de zeólitas em meio alcalino, seguida de recristalização em mesoestrutura, onde a zeólita é utilizada como fonte de sílica na formação da fase mesoporosa. A zeólita ZSM-12 pura e o MCM-41 puro também foram preparados. Os materiais foram caracterizados por difratometria de raios-X, adsorção-desorção de nitrogênio a 77 K, microscopia eletrônica de varredura, espectroscopia de absorção na região do infravermelho e análise termogravimétrica. A atividade catalítica destes foi analisada no craqueamento catalítico do cumeno. Os resultados obtidos através das técnicas de caracterização mostraram que a metodologia utilizada é eficiente para a obtenção de materiais híbridos do tipo ZSM-12/MCM-41 com contribuição de micro e mesoporosidade otimizadas, e os testes catalíticos mostraram que os híbridos têm potencial em reações de craqueamento, apresentando melhores resultados que os materiais puros, evidenciando com isso, o efeito sinérgico existente nestes.
