Natural zeolite from Klaten was activated using hydrothermal treatment at temperature 500 ℃ for 6 h (produced ZAAHd), the ZA sample was treated with hydrothermal followed by Microwave (produced ZAAHdM), the ZA sample was treated with HCI 3 N at temperature of 90 ℃ for 30 min (produced ZAAH), the ZAAH sample was heated in to microwave (produced ZAAHM), the ZAAHM was treated hydrothermal (produced ZAAHMHd), the ZAAHMHd sample was heated in to microwave (produced ZAAHMHdM), soaking of natural zeolit activated by HCl-microwave-hydrothermal-microwave in NH4NO3 1 N which was stirred using stirer at room temperature for 24 h (produced ZAAHMHdMN) and the ZAAHMHdMN sample was heated into microwave (ZAAHMHdMNM). The heating process by microwave was conducted at 550 watt for 15 rain. Catalyst characterization involved determination of the number of total acid sites using gravimetric method with vapour adsorption of NH3 and pyridine, catalyst crystallinity by XRD (X-ray diffraction) and TO4 (T= Si and AI) site by infra red spectrophotometer (IR). Hydrocracking of waste lubricants oil was performed in a fixed bed reactor of stainless steel at temperature of 450 ℃, H2 flow rate of 15 mL/min., feed/catalyst ratio of 5. Liquid products of the hydrocracking were analyzed using GC (gas chromatography). The characterization results showed that various modification of natural zeolite increased acidity and dealumination degree of the catalysts. Products of the hydrocracking were liquid, coke, and gas fractions. Liquid products consisted of gasoline fraction (C5-C12), diesel fraction (C12-C20), and heavy oil fraction (〉 C20).Thc conversion of liquid products was increased with the increase of catalyst acidity. The greatest liquid product conversion was produced by the ZAAHMHdMNM catalyst, i.e., 56.80%, with selectivity towards gasoline, diesel, and heavy oil fractions was 88.37%, 8.61% and 3.02%, respectively. The increase of catalyst acidity increased the selectivity of gasoline fraction.展开更多

A quadratic polynomial model relating the reaction variables with FFA reduction was developed, presenting a good coefficient of determination (R2= 0.893). For reducing FFA to less than 1%, the optimal combination was found to be 0.62 v.v^-1 ethanol-to-oil ratio (14.9 v.v^-1 ethanol-to-FFA ratio), 1.7% v.vI H2SO4 concentration, and 79 rain reaction time at a reaction temperature of 54℃. These results are of great relevance to maximize methyl esters formation by transesterification using an alkaline catalyst.展开更多
