The samples were annealed at 100-450 ℃ and were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, thermal gravity-DTG, brunauer emmett teller, and NHa-temperature programmed desorption. The results showed that the bmim-PW12 samples were crystal and maintained intact Keggin structure. The organic parts of those samples were partly decomposed at a temperature more than 350 ℃. The sample annealed at 400 ℃ exhibited nano-porous structure, strong acidity, and excellent catalytic activity on the esterification of n-butanol with acetic acid.

The crude lipase powder and fermentation broth were immobilized on a cheap fiber cloth carrier. The conditions of lipase-catalyzed esterification between long-chain fatty acids and methanol in a solvent system were investigated in detail, including the temperature, pH value, substrate concentration, solvent, absorbent agent, enzyme dosage and purity, immobilization method, the mode of addition of substrate. The results show that reaction temperature, pH of lipase micro-environment, substrate concentration, enzyme dosage and purity affect the esterification strongly. Several new methods and enzymatic procedures for improving the enzymatic reaction involving the process cost are also discussed, such as fossil diesel fuel as reaction solvent, immobilization method, multi-step gradient addition of methanol. The esterification degree of 92.8% was obtained with oleic acid and methanol under the optimal reaction condition after 12.5 h reaction time. The half-life of the immobilized lipase preparation from crude free lipase powder for esterification was 15 days.展开更多

The influences of catalyst loading, stirrer speed, catalyst particle size, initial reactant molar ratio and temperature on the reaction rate have been examined. Experimental kinetic data were correlated by using the pseudo-homogeneous, Langnluir-Hinshelwood and Eley-Rideal models. Nonideality of the liquid phase was taken into account by using activities instead of molar fractions. The activity coefficients were calculated according to the group contribution method UNIFAC. Provided that the nonideality of the liquid is taken into account, the esterification kinetics of lactic acid with isobutanol and n-butanol catalyzed by the acid ion-exchange resin can be described using all threemodels with reasonable errors.展开更多

The effects of substrate molar ratio, lipase dosage and water removal were investigated in a 50 ml flask incubated in a thermostatic cultivation cabinet. The optimized conditions were: temperature 40 ℃, shaking at 170 r·min-1, acid/alcohol molar ratio 1:0.9, lipase dosage in 10% (by mass) of oleic acid, and open reaction for water removal. As a result, the conversion rate reached 98% for reaction of 8 h. The volume of reactor was scaled up to 1 L three-neck flask. The optimized parameters were: 200 r·min-1 agitation speed, 2.5% (by mass) lipase dosage, others were the same as the parameters described above. The conversion rate reached 95% for reaction of 24 h. The lipase retained 46% conversion rate after reuse for 6, 7 batches. The products were purified by removing remained cetyl alcohol and fatty acids with ethanol and saturated sodium carbonate so-lution, respectively. The purity of the wax ester, cetyl oleate, was 96%. The physical and chemical properties of cetyl oleate were tested and compared with those of jojoba oil. The results show that the product cetyl oleate has great potential to use as the substitute of natural jojoba oil.展开更多

In this new type of reactor, direct esterification between ethylene glycol and adipic acid was accomplished efficiently and rapidly. A bench BRDT with the height of 2 m was applied for the esteriflcation process of l^oly (ethylene adlpate) (P'EA). In the continuous operation, Hn- ear oligomers were discharged from the bottom of the column, while water passed a few column trays and a pack- ing section as a condensation byproduct. The influence of major operating conditions on reactor performance was also simulated. Simulation results were in good agreement with experimental data, providing a strategy for devel- oping and optimizing this process.展开更多

The prepared sulfonated cata-lyst (SC) had aromatic structure, composed of carbon enriched inner core, and oxygen-containing (SO3H, COOH, OH) groups enriched surface. The SO3H, COOH, OH groups amounted to 0.74 mmol·g^-1, 0.78 mmol·g^-1, 2.18 mmol·g^-1, respectively. The fresh SC showed much higher catalytic activity than that of the traditional solid acid catalysts (strong^-acid 732 cation exchange resin, hydrogen type zeolite socony mobile-five (HZSM-5), sulfated zir-conia) in esterification of oleic acid. SC was deactivated during the reactions, through the mechanisms of leaching of sulfonated species and formation of sulfonate esters. Two regeneration methods were developed, and the catalytic activity can be mostly regenerated by regeneration Method 1 and be fully regenerated by regeneration Method 2, respectively.展开更多

The membranes were characterized by SEM, ion-exchange capacity and swelling degree test. It is found that dodecanoic acid has the highest FFAs conversion among the four acids for its stronger acidic and reactivity. Different effects of membrane annealing temperature, reaction temperature, molar ratio of methanol to FFAs and catalytic membrane loading on the esterification were investigated by the esterification of dodecanoic acid with methanol. The dodecanoic acid conversion reaches 97.5% trader the optimal condition when the esterification reaction lasted for 8 h.展开更多

For this purpose, rhodium (Rh) nanoparticles were loaded on S02-/Ti02 via the photo-deposition method. It was found that S024-/Rh-Ti02 exhibited stronger catalytic activity than S02-/ Ti02. The new catalysts were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high-resolution (HRTEM), X-ray photoelectron spec- troscopy (XPS) and Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy (FrlR). Results from XRD and BET show that S02-/Rh-Ti02 has higher specific surface area and smaller pore size than S02-fri02. The distribution of loaded Rh was found to be uniform with a particle size of 2-4 nm. Data from XPS reveal that Rh primarily exists as Rh~ and Rh3 + in Rh-Ti02 and SO^-/Rh-TiO~. These valence forms of Rh likely contribute to the en- hanced catalytic activity. Furthermore, FT-IR spectra of the catalysts show an abundance of surface hydroxyl groups, which help the formation of hydroxyl radicals and the enhancement of surface acid density. The results show that more acid sites are formed on the sulfated Rh-Ti02, and these acidic sites are largely responsible for improving the catalytic performance. This superior SO]-/Rh-Ti02 catalyst has potential applications in reactions reouirinz efficient acid catalysts, includinz esterification reactions and waste water treatment.展开更多

文摘Fhnctionalized ionic liquid samples (bmim-PW12) were synthesized by 1-butyl-3-methyl- imidazolium bromide (bmimBr) and 12-phosphotungstic heteropolyacid (PW12). The samples were annealed at 100-450 ℃ and were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, thermal gravity-DTG, brunauer emmett teller, and NHa-temperature programmed desorption. The results showed that the bmim-PW12 samples were crystal and maintained intact Keggin structure. The organic parts of those samples were partly decomposed at a temperature more than 350 ℃. The sample annealed at 400 ℃ exhibited nano-porous structure, strong acidity, and excellent catalytic activity on the esterification of n-butanol with acetic acid. The higher ester yield was obtained when the mass ratio of catalyst over the reactants amount was 5% for bmim-PW12 catalyst annealed at 400 ℃.

The physical and chemical properties of cetyl oleate were tested and compared with those of jojoba oil. The results show that the product cetyl oleate has great potential to use as the substitute of natural jojoba oil.

文摘Based on the kinetic and thermodynamic equations, a comprehensive mathematical model for the con- tinuous esterification process of polyester polyols was developed, which was carried out in an innovational bub- bling reactive distillation tower (BRDT) at atmospheric pressure. In this new type of reactor, direct esterification between ethylene glycol and adipic acid was accomplished efficiently and rapidly. A bench BRDT with the height of 2 m was applied for the esteriflcation process of l^oly (ethylene adlpate) (P'EA). In the continuous operation, Hn- ear oligomers were discharged from the bottom of the column, while water passed a few column trays and a pack- ing section as a condensation byproduct. The influence of major operating conditions on reactor performance was also simulated. Simulation results were in good agreement with experimental data, providing a strategy for devel- oping and optimizing this process.

文摘A carbon-based sulfonated catalyst was prepared by direct sulfonation and carbonization (in moderate conditions:200 °C, 12 h) of red liquor solids, a by-product of paper-making process. The prepared sulfonated cata-lyst (SC) had aromatic structure, composed of carbon enriched inner core, and oxygen-containing (SO3H, COOH, OH) groups enriched surface. The SO3H, COOH, OH groups amounted to 0.74 mmol·g^-1, 0.78 mmol·g^-1, 2.18 mmol·g^-1, respectively. The fresh SC showed much higher catalytic activity than that of the traditional solid acid catalysts (strong^-acid 732 cation exchange resin, hydrogen type zeolite socony mobile-five (HZSM-5), sulfated zir-conia) in esterification of oleic acid. SC was deactivated during the reactions, through the mechanisms of leaching of sulfonated species and formation of sulfonate esters. Two regeneration methods were developed, and the catalytic activity can be mostly regenerated by regeneration Method 1 and be fully regenerated by regeneration Method 2, respectively.

文摘Cation ion-exchange resin particles (CERP)/polyethersulfone (PES) hybrid catalytic membranes were prepared by immerse phase inversion for the esterification of different free fatty acids (FFAs) (such as, dodecanoic acid, tetradecanoic acid, hexadecanoic acid and octadecadienoic acid) with methanol. The membranes were characterized by SEM, ion-exchange capacity and swelling degree test. It is found that dodecanoic acid has the highest FFAs conversion among the four acids for its stronger acidic and reactivity. Different effects of membrane annealing temperature, reaction temperature, molar ratio of methanol to FFAs and catalytic membrane loading on the esterification were investigated by the esterification of dodecanoic acid with methanol. The dodecanoic acid conversion reaches 97.5% trader the optimal condition when the esterification reaction lasted for 8 h.

文摘A unique Rh/TiO2 solid acid catalyst modified with H2S04 was synthesized and evaluated in the esterification reaction of propylene glycol methyl ether and decomposition of methyl orange (MO) in aqueous phase under halogen lamp irradiation. For this purpose, rhodium (Rh) nanoparticles were loaded on S02-/Ti02 via the photo-deposition method. It was found that S024-/Rh-Ti02 exhibited stronger catalytic activity than S02-/ Ti02. The new catalysts were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high-resolution (HRTEM), X-ray photoelectron spec- troscopy (XPS) and Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy (FrlR). Results from XRD and BET show that S02-/Rh-Ti02 has higher specific surface area and smaller pore size than S02-fri02. The distribution of loaded Rh was found to be uniform with a particle size of 2-4 nm. Data from XPS reveal that Rh primarily exists as Rh~ and Rh3 + in Rh-Ti02 and SO^-/Rh-TiO~. These valence forms of Rh likely contribute to the en- hanced catalytic activity. Furthermore, FT-IR spectra of the catalysts show an abundance of surface hydroxyl groups, which help the formation of hydroxyl radicals and the enhancement of surface acid density. The results show that more acid sites are formed on the sulfated Rh-Ti02, and these acidic sites are largely responsible for improving the catalytic performance. This superior SO]-/Rh-Ti02 catalyst has potential applications in reactions reouirinz efficient acid catalysts, includinz esterification reactions and waste water treatment.

文摘A model of the continuous melt transesterification process of bisphenol-A and diphenyl carbonate in a continuous stirred tank reactor to produce polycarbonate is presented. The model is developed by using the molecular species model of polycarbonate melt polycondensation and the modeling method of reactive flash. Liquid phase is treated as perfect mixed flow and the vapor phase is assumed following the ideal gas law. With this model, the continuous melt transesterification process of bisphenol-A and diphenyl carbonate is examined with respect to different orocess parameters.
文摘A series of indium oxide‐modified Cu/SiO2catalysts were synthesized and used to produce ethanol via methyl acetate hydrogenation.In‐Cu/SiO2catalyst containing1.0wt%In2O3exhibited the best catalytic activity and stability.The physicochemical properties of the synthesized catalysts were investigated using several characterization methods and the results showed that introducing suitable indium to Cu/SiO2increased the copper dispersion,diminished the copper crystallite size,and enriched the surface Cu+concentration.Furthermore,the Cu/SiO2catalyst gradually deactivated during the stability test,which was mainly attributed to copper sintering and the valence change in surface copper species.In contrast,indium addition can inhibit the thermal transmigration and accumulation of copper nanoparticles to stabilize the catalyst.?2018,Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics,Chinese Academy of Sciences.Published by Elsevier B.V.All rights reserved.
