Catalytic conversion of glycerol was performed for production of value-added liquid chemicals. In this work, a systematic study has been conducted to evaluate the effects of operating conditions such as glycerol conversion to liquid chemical products in the presence of acid catalysts. Experiments were performed in a fixed-bed reactor using HZSM-5, HY, silica-alumina and gamma-alumina catalysts. The temperature, carrier gas flow rate and weight hourly space velocity (WHSV) were maintained in the range of 350-500 degrees C, 20-50 mL/min and 5.40-21.60 h(-1), respectively. The main liquid chemicals detected in liquid product were acetaldehyde, acrolein, formaldehyde and hydroxyacetone. Under all experimental conditions complete glycerol conversion was obtained over silica-alumina and gamma-alumina. A maximum liquid product yield of approximately 83 g/100 g feed was obtained with these two catalysts when the operating conditions were maintained at 380 degrees C, 26 mt./min and 8.68 h(-1). Maximum glycerol conversions of 100 wt% and 78.8 wt% were obtained in the presence of HY and HZSM-5 at temperature, carrier gas flow rate and WHSV of 470 degrees C, 26 mL/min and 8.68 h(-1). HY and HZSM-5 produced maximum liquid product of 80.9 and 59.0 g/100 g feed at temperature of 425 and 470 degrees C, respectively. Silica-alumina produced the maximum acetaldehyde (similar to 24.5 g/100 g feed) whereas gamma-alumina produced the maximum acrolein (similar to 25 g/100 g feed). Also, silica-alumina produced highest formaldehyde yield of 9 g/100 g feed whereas HY produced highest acetol yield of 14.7 g/100 g feed. The effect of pore size of these catalysts was studied on optimum glycerol conversion and liquid product yield. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
