Abstract

Standard Y zeolite has been prepared from sodium aluminate as an alumina source and Cab-O-Sil or sodium silicate as a silicate source. This study in particular aimed to obtain a reliable procedure to produce Y zeolite with Si/Al ratio ≥5. The resulted zeolite was then converted into Ultra Stable Y Zeolite (USY) through hydrothermal dealumination at high temperature. The study managed to procure a formulae and procedure to produce a zeolite Y which has SiO2/Al2O3 > 5 and a very stable USY. The procedure succeeded in obtaining synthesized USY that is ready to use as an active phase of cracking catalyst by combining it with other components which are matrix (modified clay and active matrix) and additives (ZSM- 5).

Abstract

Kaolin is one of several types of clay minerals. The most common crystalline phase constituting kaolin minerals is kaolinite, with the chemical composition Al2Si2O5(OH)4. Kaolin is mostly used for manufacturing traditional ceramics and also to synthesize zeolites or molecular sieves. The Si-O and Al-O structures in kaolin are inactive and inert, so activation by calcination is required. This work studies the conversion of kaolin originating from Bangka island in Indonesia into calcined kaolin phase as precursor in NaY zeolite synthesis. In the calcination process, the kaolinite undergoes phase transformations from metakaolin to mullite. The Bangka kaolin is 74.3% crystalline, predominantly composed of kaolinite, and 25.7% amorphous, with an SiO2/Al2O3 mass ratio of 1.64. Thermal characterization using simultaneous DSC/TGA identified an endothermic peak at 527°C and an exothermic peak at 1013°C. Thus, three calcination temperatures (700, 1013, and 1050 °C) were selected to produce calcined kaolins with different phase distributions. The best product, with 87.8% NaY zeolite in the 54.7% crystalline product and an SiO2/Al2O3 molar ratio of 5.35, was obtained through hydrothermal synthesis using mixed calcined kaolins with a composition of K700C : K1013C : K1050C = 10 : 85 : 5 in %-mass, with seed addition, at a temperature of 93 °Cand a reaction time of 15 hours.

Abstract

Fatty alcohol (FAOH) can be produced by hydrogenating of fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) using the copper-based catalyst. Copper-Chrom (Cu-Cr) is the best catalyst for high-pressure reaction condition, which is copper (Cu) as the main active component and chrom (Cr) as a promoter. Since Cr is feared to be toxic, one of the best replacement candidates is manganese (Mn). The research aims is to find the kinetic equation of hydrogenation FAME to FAOH using a Cu-Mn commercial catalyst. FAME with methyl laurate and methyl myristate as the main compounds is used as feedstock. The main products are lauryl alcohol and myristyl alcohol. The reaction was carried out in an isothermal continuous fixed bed reactor under conditions of temperature 220 – 240 oC, pressure 50 bar, and liquid hourly space velocity (LHSV) 5-12.5 hr-1. The kinetic equation is determined using the power law model. The FAME hydrogenation on copper - manganese catalyst is the half order reaction. The activation energy value is 86.32 kJ/mol and the Arrhenius constant value is 5.87x106 M0.5/s.

Abstract

The increasing demand for oil fuel and the decline of crude oil reserves highlight the need for alternative energy sources. Palm oil, as a renewable resource, has potential for biofuel production through catalytic cracking. This study aims to develop and evaluate modified zeolite-based catalysts, particularly ZSM-5/HY, to produce palm oil-derived gasoline that meets European fuel standards. The research involved catalyst preparation, modification with ZSM-5 and phosphorus, and activity testing in a fixed-bed reactor. Gasoline yield and catalyst performance were analyzed using gas chromatography. The results showed nearly 100% conversion of palm oil under optimal conditions, with gasoline yield meeting European standard. The addition of ZSM-5 improved conversion and RON, while phosphorus modification reduced catalyst acidity, affecting yield and coke formation. This study concludes that modifying zeolite catalysts with ZSM-5 and phosphorus enables efficient palm oil-derived gasoline production with high RON and reduced aromatic content, contributing to sustainable energy solutions.

Abstract

Produksi BioBTX (Benzena, Toluena dan Xilena) dari Tandan Kosong Sawit menjadi suatu alternatif menarik dalam produksi bahan kimia berbasis biomassa. Pengaruh katalis dan sumber hidrogen dalam produksi BioBTX telah dipelajari dengan menggunakan reaktor hidrotermal. Dalam penelitian ini digunakan katalis bimetal Nikel-Molibdenum dengan penyangga H-Al-β sebagai asam Brønsted dan Sn-β sebagai asam Lewis dimana asam format dalam etanol (FA-EtOH) dan isopropil alkohol (IPA) digunakan sebagai agen transfer hidrogen. Percobaan dilakukan pada temperatur 300oC selama 1 jam untuk setiap percobaan sumber hidrogen dan katalis. Temperatur reaksi divariasikan pada 225oC, 255oC dan 300oC dengan variasi waktu reaksi 1 dan 2 jam. Berdasarkan hasil percobaan, sistem FA-EtOH memiliki keunggulan dibandingkan sistem IPA yaitu selektifitas eterifikasi pelarut yang lebih rendah baik pada katalis NiMo/H-Al-β dan NiMo/Sn-β. Dari segi katalis, katalis NiMo/H-Al-β memiliki kinerja yang lebih baik dibandingkan NiMo/Sn-β baik pada sistem FA-EtOH maupun sistem IPA. Konversi NiMo/H-Al-β tertinggi didapatkan pada sistem IPA sebesar 51,08% dan pada sistem FA-EtOH sebesar 48,66%. Namun pada sistem IPA reaksi cenderung ke arah alkilasi-C cincin aromatik sehingga secara sebaran produk sistem FA-EtOH lebih baik. Adapun pengujian pengaruh temperatur yang dilakukan menggunakan sistem FA-EtOH dengan katalis NiMo/H-Al-β menunjukan penurunan konversi guaiacol dari 48,66% pada 300oC menjadi 24,64% pada 255oC. Adapun pada suhu 225oC, tidak terjadi reaksi pada guaiacol. Toluena terdeteksi pada kondisi operasi 255oC selama 2 jam pada sistem FA-EtOH berkatalis NiMo/H-Al-β.
