Abstract |
Partial hydrogenation of palm biodiesel fuel (BDF) over 0.5wt%Pd/SBA-15 and 0.5wt%Pd/Zr-SBA-15 catalysts was examined by using a continuous fixed-bed reactor at 100 °C and 0.3 MPa under an atmosphere of H2, in comparison to the commercial 0.5wt%Pd/γ-Al2O3 catalyst. The results showed that the 0.5wt%Pd/SBA-15 catalyst with high Pd dispersion and fast molecular diffusion through the short channeling pores gave the highest activity and selectivity in partial hydrogenation of polyunsaturated fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) as unstable components of palm BDF into cis-mono-unsaturated FAME as a target component of upgraded palm BDF with excellent oxidation stability and cold flow properties, which makes the addition of antioxidants unnecessary. By contrast, the 0.5wt%Pd/Zr-SBA-15 catalyst with strongly and moderately acidic sites gave low selectivity toward cis-mono-unsaturated FAME. The commercial 0.5wt%Pd/γ-Al2O3 catalyst displayed much lower polyunsaturated FAME conversion and cis-mono-unsaturated FAME selectivity, associated with poor Pd dispersion and slow molecular diffusion through the disordered pores.
