Abstract

Kinetics of Henry reaction was performed to investigate the performance of fluorapatite. (FAP) catalyst. It was found that the catalyst showed the highest conversion and selectivity of 65% and 80%, respectively at 323 K. Kinetic model was validated, and the absence of mass-transfer resistance was proved by the Weisz Prater criterion. The as-synthesized catalyst is characterized using BET nitrogen adsorption-desorption, FTIR, FE-SEM, TPD-CO2, XPS, and XRD. Effect of catalyst loading, temperature, mole-ratio, speed of stirring, and solvents were studied. FAP catalyst showed good reusability up to four cycles.
