ORREGO-ROMERO, Andrés Felipe; ARBELAEZ-PEREZ, Oscar Felipe; BUSTAMANTE-LONDONO, Felipe e VILLA-HOLGUIN, Aída Luz. Pelletization of catalysts supported on activated carbon. A Case Study: clean synthesis of dimethyl carbonate from methanol and CO2. Rev.fac.ing.univ. Antioquia [online]. 2016, n.78, pp.38-47. ISSN 0120-6230. https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.redin.n78a05.
The synthesis of Cu-Ni bimetallic catalyst supported on pellets of activated carbon using carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) as a binder is reported. The effect of preparation conditions, such as binder concentration, AC/binder ratio, temperature, and pyrolysis heating rate on the surface area of the pellets, was evaluated. Cu and Ni metals were incorporated on the pellets by conventional incipient wetness impregnation. The support and the synthesized catalysts were characterized using N2 adsorption, H2-TPR, XRD and SEM-EDS techniques. The pelletized catalysts were evaluated for the direct synthesis of dimethyl carbonate DMC (case study). An improved catalytic activity (e.g., ca. 20% increase in conversion) in structured pelletized catalyst in comparison to the powdered catalyst was found.
