  • Hydrohalogenation of platinum palladium h zsm 5 catalysts for n hexane hydroconversion
    Petroleum Science and Technology, 2015
    Co-Authors: Ahmed K Aboulgheit, Noha A K Aboulgheit, Ahmed E Awadallah, S M Abdelhamid
    Abstract:

    Catalysts containing 0.3%Pt-, 0.3%Pd-, and 0.3%Pt-0.3%Pd-/H-ZSM-5 were prepared and modified via hydrochlorination or hydrofluorination and tested for n-hexane hydroconversion throughout a reaction temperature range of 250–500°C. Bifunctionality parameters of the current catalysts were characterized via acid site strength distribution by NH3-temperature programmed desorption, metal(s) component dispersion by H2 chemisorption, and temperature programmed reduction. Hydrochlorination was found to leach less structural zeolitic Al in the catalyst than hydrofluorination. HCl modification improved n-hexane hydroisomerization activity, whereas HF treatment was deteriorative via causing pore diffusion restriction by excessively formed debris. Acid sites density and strength were higher on hydrofluorination than on hydrochlorination. Surface area and metals dispersion were higher for hydrochlorinated catalyst but lower for the hydrofluorinated one. Maximum isohexanes production (70%) was realized on hydrochlorinat...

  • Reactions of Cyclohexane on Platinum, Palladium, or Iridium-loaded H-ZSM-5 Zeolite Hydrohalogenated Catalysts
    Petroleum Science and Technology, 2011
    Co-Authors: Ahmed K. Aboul-gheit, S. M. Abdel-hamid, Ahmed E Awadallah, D. S. El-desouki, Ateyya A. Aboul-enein
    Abstract:

    Abstract The catalytic hydroconversion of cyclohexane using catalysts containing H-ZSM-5 zeolite loaded with 0.35 wt% platinum, palladium, or iridium was studied in a pulse-type microreactor/GC system at atmospheric pressure. These catalysts were also either doped with 3.0% of HCl or HF. The activities of these catalysts and the distribution of the products formed were found to depend on the dispersion of the metallic component as well as on the acidity, acid sites number, and strength in the catalysts. TPD of ammonia and hydrogen chemisorption were applied to evaluate acid site strength distribution and metals dispersion, respectively, in the catalysts. In case of the Pt- and Pd-containing catalysts, hydrochlorination enhanced the isomerization and dehydrogenation activities and selectivities of cyclohexane, but decreased its hydrocracking activity. However, catalyst hydrofluorination resulted in the reverse effects. Nevertheless, for the Ir-loaded catalyst, both Hydrohalogenation treatments decreased th...

  • effect of Hydrohalogenation of metal zeolite catalysts for cyclohexene hydroconversion ii rhenium h zsm 5 catalysts
    Chinese Journal of Catalysis, 2008
    Co-Authors: Ahmed K Aboulgheit, Noha A K Aboulgheit, Ahmed E Awadallah
    Abstract:

    Abstract A post-preparation treatment of the Re/H-ZSM-5 catalyst with HCl or HF was performed, and its effect on cyclohexene hydroconversion reactions at 50-400 °C in a continuous flow reactor was investigated. The HF treatment significantly improved the catalytic activity for cyclohexene hydrogenation to cyclohexane and methylcyclopentenes to methylcyclopentane in comparison to the HCl treatment. This is principally attributed to the higher Re dispersion and enhancement of the acid site number and strength. Thereupon occurs the highest hydrocracking activity and the lowest dehydrogenation activity for cyclohexene to cyclohexadienes on Re/H-ZSM-5(HF) by virtue of the highest strength of acid sites. The untreated Re/H-ZSM-5 catalyst exhibited the highest dehydrogenation activity for aromatics production, which may be attributed to the lowest quantity of extraframework Al and Si depositing in the pores and cavities of the zeolite support. Industrially, the relative amounts of xylene isomers produced on the hydrohalogenated catalysts are of interest. The amount of p -xylene was higher than m -xylene on the HF-treated catalyst; m - and p -xylenes presented almost equal values on the HCl-treated catalyst; m -xylene exceeded p -xylene on the untreated catalyst. O-xylene was almost equal to the sum of p - and m -xylenes in all cases.

  • effect of Hydrohalogenation of ptre h zsm 5 for cyclohexene conversion
    Chinese Journal of Catalysis, 2012
    Co-Authors: Sameh M Aboulfotouh, Ahmed K Aboulgheit
    Abstract:

    Extended use of supported Pt catalysts causes thermal migration of Pt particles to form large agglomerates, thus decreasing the catalytic activity. The combination of Pt with Re protects Pt against migration. In addition, Cl− injection into the reactor assists Pt particles redispersion to prolong catalyst life. In this work, a PtRe/H-ZSM-5 catalyst was treated with either HCl or HF to investigate their role in activating or deactivating the catalyst. The conversion exceeded 90% in the whole temperature range with the PtRe/H-ZSM-5(HCl) catalyst, and its activity for the direct isomerization of cyclohexene to methylcyclopentenes (MCPEs) was the lowest but the activity for the hydrogenation of the MCPEs to methylcyclopentane was the highest. The reactivities of MCPEs and cyclohexadienes on the catalysts were similar because both are dehydrogenation reactions. Benzene production was significantly higher on the hydrochlorinated catalyst than on the other catalysts, and its hydrocracking activity was the lowest, which is a good characteristic for processing catalysts where cracking is undesired.

  • effect of hydrochlorination and hydrofluorination of h zsm 5 on the catalytic hydroconversion reactions of cyclohexene
    Applied Catalysis A-general, 2006
    Co-Authors: Ahmed K Aboulgheit, Sameh M Aboulfotouh, Samah M Abdelhamid, Noha A K Aboulgheit
    Abstract:

    Abstract Modifying the acid sites (number and strength) of H-ZSM-5 zeolite via doping with 3.0 wt.% HCl or HF for being used as catalysts for the hydroconversion of cyclohexene (CHE) in a flow-type fixed-bed reactor operated atmospherically in H 2 carrier gas at temperatures of 50–400 °C. The acid sites strength distribution in these zeolite forms was evaluated using temperature programmed desorption (TPD) of presorbed ammonia in a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). Either HCl or HF incorporation has increased both acid sites number and strength in the zeolite to varying extents. Hydrochlorination enhanced the acid sites number in the zeolite to a larger extent than hydrofluorination, whereas, the latter enhanced the acid sites strength to a larger extent than hydrochlorination. Nevertheless, not only the acid catalysed reactions ; i.e., isomerisation of the six-membered-ring of CHE to the five-membered ring compounds (methylcyclopentenes (MCPEs) plus methylcyclopentane (MCPA)) and hydrocracking reactions to lower molecular weight components, were enhanced via both Hydrohalogenation treatments of the zeolite, but also hydrogenation of CHE to cyclohexane and MCPEs to MCPA and dehydrogenation of CHE to cyclohexadienes (CHDEs) plus benzene were also enhanced.
