摘要
The Grand Canonical Monte Carlo(GCMC) simulation method was used to investigate the adsorption properties of quinoline homologues(quinoline, 2-methyl quinoline, and 2,4-dimethyl quinoline) on the FAU zeolite. The adsorption heat, adsorption isotherms, and adsorption sites of them were obtained. At the temperature ranging from 673.15 to 873.15 K, the Henry constant of quinoline homologues calculated on the FAU zeolite was applied to simulate their adsorption heat. And its value was more in accordance with the related data reported in the literature. The results showed that their isosteric heat decreased in the following order: 2,4-dimethyl quinoline(118.63 kJ/mol) > 2-methyl quinoline(110.45 kJ/mol) > quinoline(98 kJ/mol), and complied with the order of their adsorbate basicity. The competitive adsorption of three components of quinoline homologues on the FAU zeolite was calculated numerically at a temperature of 773.15 K and a pressure range of 0.1—100 MPa under the Universal force field. Their adsorption capacity decreased in the following order: quinoline > 2-methyl quinoline > 2,4-dimethyl quinoline. The smaller the molecule size of the adsorbate, the greater the saturated adsorption capacity would be. It was found that the quinoline homologues could be adsorbed in the main channels of 12- membered-ring framework of the zeolite. Simultaneously, the influence of silica/alumina ratio on the adsorption property of quinoline homologues in FAU zeolite was studied. The smaller the silica/alumina ratio, the greater the isosteric heat and adsorption capacity would be.
