Abstract

Currently, the world is intensively exploring the possibility of obtaining highly active catalysts for hydrothermal processing of high-viscosity oils through the synthesis of new carriers, optimization of the composition, structural parameters in order to increase the degree of conversion of high-molecular hydrocarbons. The work is devoted to the study of the composition and properties of a montmorillonite intercalated with γ-Al13O4(OH)24(OH2)11(OH)6+ and containing catalytically active pillars agents γ-Al2O3 in the reactions of hydrothermal transformation of high-viscosity oils. Experiments conducted in a catalytic laboratory setup in a flow-down reactor with a stationary layer of pillared montmorillonite at a temperature above 450 °C and a pressure of not more than 0.5 MPa showed an increase in the conversion of high molecular weight n-alkanes 1.3 times, with the formation of low-boiling n-alkanes and alkanes branched structure.
