Methane Conversion to Liquid Hydrocarbons over W-ZSM-5 and W Loaded Cu/HZSM-5 Didi Dwi Anggoro; Nor Aishah Saidina Amin
ASEAN Journal of Chemical Engineering vol. 6 no. 2 (2006)
Publisher : Department of Chemical Engineering, Universitas Gadjah Mada

The direct conversion of natural gas-in particular, its principal component, methane into useful products has been the subject of intense study over the past decades. However, commercialization of this process is still not viable because its conversion and selectivity potentials remain low. Thus, the search continues to come up with a suitable catalyst that allows methane to be oxidized in a controlled environment to yield a high percentage of higher hydrocarbons. ZSM-5 zeolite has been known to be a suitable catalyst for olefin oligomerization. Previous studies, however, have indicated that ZSM-5 zeolites are not resistant to high temperatures. In this work, ZSM-5 was modified with copper and tungsten to develop a highly active and heat-resistant bifunctional oxidative acid catalyst. The oxidation of methane was performed over W/Cu/HZSM-5 catalyst and the results compared with the catalytic performance of W/ HZSM-5 and HZSM-5 catalysts. The metal oxide on the catalyst surface led to enhanced conversion of Hz and CO to CZ-3 ydrocarbons and, hence, reduced HzO selectivity. Inh the liquid hydrocarbons, Cs+ selectivity increased with increasing amount of surface Bn1Jnstedacid sites. The experimental results indicated higher methane conversion and liquid hydrocarbon selectivity than that of W/3.0Cu/HZSM-5 catalyst.

The production of glycerol and ester by alcoholysis of vegetable oils has been widely studied. Various catalysts, such as sodium and potassium hydroxide and sulfuric acid have been used to increase the rate of reaction. This preliminary research studied the possibility of using potassium carbonate catalyst. The experiment was conducted in an autoclave. A certain amount of nyamplung seed oil was poured into the autoclave and then the heater was switched on to heat up the oil to the required temperature of reaction. Besides, a mixture of ethanol and potassium carbonate was heated in a flask equipped with condenser to form ethanolate. As soon as the required temperature was reached, the ethanolate was quickly put into the autoclave containing the nyamplung seed oil. The temperature of the reaction was kept constant for a period of time. At the end of each process, a sample was withdrawn and analyzed for its glycerine content by acetin method. The variables studied were reaction time and catalyst concentration. The experimental data were evaluated by applying pseudo homogeneous approach. It was found that data were in good agreement with first order reaction with respect to nyamplung seed oil. Using an equivalent ratio of 5.1 ethanol to nyamplung seed oil, a temperature of lOQoC,and an agitation speed of 150 rpm, the favorable catalyst concentration was found to be at 0.008 gram of potassium carbonate per gram of nyamplung seed oil. Under this condition, the glyceride conversion was 0.5159 in 75 min.

Use of a Novel Algorithm to Determine Cyclic Steady State Luis E Razon
ASEAN Journal of Chemical Engineering vol. 6 no. 2 (2006)
Publisher : Department of Chemical Engineering, Universitas Gadjah Mada

A simple algorithm originally proposed by Choong, Paterson and Scott (2002) was tested on a model of an isothermal controlled-cycled stirred tank reactor with substrate inhibition kinetics, (r = 1 ~c). In previous work, this reacting system had been shown to exhibit steady-state multiplicity. The transition period of this system to the stable steady state is sometimes characterized by very slow change followed by a very rapid convergence to the stable steady state. Tests of the Choong-Paterson-Scott algorithm showed that the feature, which prevents premature termination of the calculations prior to reaching the true steady state, is very useful for this system. However, tests of the stopping criterion showed that the other feature of reducing the computing time was not realized in this system.

Decomposition of carbon dioxide (C02) by gliding arc plasma was examined. The plasma reactor was consisted of two triangles stainless steel plates which was connected to a 20 kV AC power supply. The gas entered through a nozzle tube from the upstream cylinder reactor and exit at the downstream of the reactor. The effect of total gas flow rates have been used to study the chemical process reaction in gliding plasma system. The model of active-chemical kinetic of C02 decomposition was built to explain the way of plasma reaction. Experiment results indicate the conversion of C02 reached 18% at the total gas flow rate of 1.5' 10.5m3s'1and produced CO and 02 as the main gaseous final products.

Base Case Simulation of a Semi-Batch Emulsion Copolymerization Process Iwan Harsono; Herman Hindarso; Nani Indraswati

Publisher : Department of Chemical Engineering, Universitas Gadjah Mada

It has been long recognized that emulsion polymerization is a complex heterogeneous process involving transport of monomers and other species and free radicals between aqueous phase and organic phases. Though there are a number of models available in the literature, most of them deal only with specific aspects in emulsion polymerization and are far from being general. To simulate this complicated process and to achieve an adequate level of understanding, a Polymer Plus' software from Aspen Technology, Inc. has been used. The objective of this work is to illustrate the principle use of Polymers Plus' and to simulate and analysis the free-radical seeded emulsion copolymerization of styrene-butadiene process model in a semi-batch reactor. The base case simulation can be used to gain process understanding by analyzing how process variables and operating conditions during the course of a semi-batch reactor affect product quality.

Silvlated MCM-41 Synthesized from RiceHusk N. Ketcome; N. Grisdanurak
ASEAN Journal of Chemical Engineering vol. 6 no. 2 (2006)
Publisher : Department of Chemical Engineering, Universitas Gadjah Mada

Mesoporous material, MCM-41, synthesized from rice husk (RH-MCM-41) was modified by loading silylating agent (either Trimethylchlorosilane (TMCS), Dimethyl- dichlorosilane (DMCS) or Phenyl-trichlorosilane (PTCS)) in different concentration (1-9 %wt), and aging time, varied from I, 6, 9 and 24 hr. Properties of samples were characterized by XRD, Nz adsorption, FfIR, and TPD and adsorption of water, hexane, and toluene. Chemical modification resulted smaller pore size average and less surface area of RH-MCM-41, from 2.9 to 2.2 nm and from 900 to 500 mZ/g, respectively. PTCS could affect RH-MCM-41 surface structure more than other two. Adsorption behavior of modified RH-MCM-41 was also reflected to comparatively higher hydrophobicity.

Effect of MgCI2 and CaCI2 on the Bubble Point of Mixed- Solvents (Toluene-Isopropyl Alcohol-H20 System) Nathaniel P. Dugos; Noel P. Cabigon; Yolanda P. Brondial

Publisher : Department of Chemical Engineering, Universitas Gadjah Mada

This study investigated the effect of CaCl2 and MgCI2,both alkaline earth metal salts on the boiling points of a mixed-solvent system composed of toluene, isopropyl alcohol and water. The effect of the concentration of the salt on the boiling point of this ternary system was also examined. Results showed that mixed- solvents added with CaCl2 boil at higher temperatures than those with MgCl2even though the latter salt is higher in molal concentration. This proves that MgCI2, which has a smaller ionic radius than CaCl2 is more effective in reducing the molecular affinity to polar and associating solvents (water and isopropyl alcohol) than to the non-polar solvent (toluene). The mixed- solvent system added with MgCl2 registered higher boiling point deviation than those with CaCI2, though both showed positive deviations. Based on the results, either of the two salts can be an effective mass separating agent. However it is shown that MgCl2is better than CaCl2 because the solutions with MgCI2 generally exhibited lower boiling points. Though the difference in temperature deviations of the two salts is statistically not significant, a difference in temperature of one degree is economically significant considering the cost of energy.
