Abstract
AbstractCatalytic isobutyl alcohol oligomerization to generate hydrocarbon liquid fuels over zeolite has been investigated over H−Y, SAPO‐34, H‐MOR zeolite and Al‐MCM‐41 catalysts, as a new way to direct conversion of isobutyl alcohol to hydrocarbon liquid fuels, considering the fact that isobutyl alcohol can be obtained from biomass by microbes. In this study, all of the zeolite samples showed good reactivity, especially H‐MOR, achieving 94 % conversion of isobutyl alcohol and 63 % selectivity of C5+ liquid fuels in all products. The effects of reaction conditions including reaction temperature and reaction time were also discussed. The physicochemical properties of the catalysts were characterized by XRD, Nitrogen adsorption‐desorption, NH3‐TPD, TG/DTA, and GS/MS. The reaction system discussed here involves two reactions, i) isobutyl alcohol dehydration reaction via a typical acid catalysis, ii) a polymerization reaction of small molecules into large ones, according to the experimental and characterization results, the pore size and acid property of the zeolite are the two main factors controlling this catalytic dehydration and oligomerization reaction.
