Study of Reverse Water Gas Shift reaction using bimetallic catalysts on active supports : The case of unpromoted and K-promoted FeCu/CeO2 / The case of unpromoted and K-promoted FeCu/CeO2 : Studie av icke-promoterad och K-promoterad FeCu/CeO2

Sala, Carlo January 2022 (has links)
Reverse Water Gas Shift Reaction (RWGS) är en attraktiv lösning för CO2-använding och minskning av utsläppen i atmosfären. Denna reaktion begränsas av termodynamiken och det finns problem med storskalig tillämpning. För att förbättra genomförandet av processen krävs utveckling av en effektiv katalysator. I mosats till typiska undersökningar som använder katalytiska metaller på en inert bärare, i denna undersökning användas en bimetallisk katalysator på en aktiv bärare.  RWGS-reaktionen studerades genom att använda Cu-Fe/CeO2-katalysator den K-promoterade motsvarigheten i olika mängder. Katalysatorerna testades i en fastbäddsreaktor. Katalysatorerna syntetiserades genom hydrotermisk metod och successiv impregnering av aktiva metaller. De framställda katalysatorerna analyserades med hjälp av BET-analys, H2-temperaturprogrammerad reduktion och röntgendiffraktion (XRD). Temperatur och H2/CO2 effekterna bedömdes. Experimentella resultat visade att Cu-Fe/CeO2 uppvisar avsevärd katalytisk aktivitet vid temperaturer högre än 500°C. Den CO2 omvandling med bimetalliska katalysatorn varierade mellan 24 % och 100 % avjämviktsvärdet med GHSV 360 000 h-1. Dessutom varierade CO selektivitet i intervallet mellan 70% och 95%. K-promoterad katalysator uppvisade lägre aktivitet antagligen på grund av partiell täckning av metalliska aktiva ytan, vilket resulterade i lägre omvandling (10%-~50% av jämviktsvärdet). Längre experiment (69-100 timmar) för de icke-promotoriserade katalysatorerna uppvisade inga avaktivering eller aktivitet/selektivitetsförlust i motsats till den K-promoterade katalysatorn som uppvisade en långsam aktivitetsavklingning troligen på grund av sintring. / Reverse Water Gas Shift Reaction (RWGS)is an attractive solution for CO2 utilizationand consecutive reduction of emissions in the atmosphere. This reaction is limited by thermodynamics while there are problems with its implementation at large scale. To improve the process implementation, development of an efficient and effective catalyst is required. Contrary to typical studies where catalytically active metals are deposited on inert supports, in this study the investigation of a bimetallic (Fe-Cu) catalyst on an active support was carried out. In particular, the RWGS reaction was studied over Cu − Fe/CeO2 catalyst with and without potassium promotion by means of catalytic activity tests in a fixed bed reactor. The catalysts were synthesized by hydrothermal method and successive impregnation of active metals. All the materials were characterized by means of BET analysis, H2 temperature programmed reduction and x-ray diffraction. The effects of temperature and H2/CO2 molar ratio were assessed. Experimental results showed that Cu −Fe and exhibit considerable catalytic activity at temperatures greater than 500°C. CO2 conversions of 24% to 100% of the equilibrium conversion were achieved at gas hourly space velocities of 360 000 h−1. Selectivity for CO varied between 70-95% Potassium promotion plausibly results to a partial coverage of active sites, and thus leading to lower conversion (10%-~50% of the equilibrium value). Longer runs (69-100h) showed no signs of deactivation and activity/selectivity loss for the unpromoted catalysts, while the K-promoted catalyst exhibited a slow activity decay probably due to sintering.
