Dynamics of the Activity and Physicochemical Characteristics of Pt/WO42−–ZrO2 Catalysts in the Hydroisomerization of Heptane and Heptane–Benzene Mixtures
2017
Overview
The dynamics of the activity and selectivity of bifunctional platinum tungstated zirconia PtWZ catalyst in the hydroisomerization of n-heptane and heptane–benzene mixture is discussed in the paper. The change in the properties of the catalyst before and after reaction were characterized using different techniques. The catalyst showed high efficiency for the hydroisomerization of heptane and heptane–benzene mixture, however, deactivation occurred with time on stream, more significantly when benzene was present in the reaction mixture. The carbonaceous matter was deposited on the catalyst (up to 0.8%) during the hydroisomerization reaction. Predominantly aliphatic carbonaceous «poly-C

In the presence of benzene, the formation of «graphite-like» matter increased progressively as temperature increased. However, no appreciable changes in the bulk properties of the

reduction was detected by XPS spectra irrespectively of the reaction conditions. The deactivation of the PtWZ catalyst was suggested to result from the blocking the active centers by carbonaceous deposits, the deactivation of the acidic centers being more pronounced as compared to metallic ones. All the carbonaceous deposits were burned-off completely below 450–500 °C.
