Abstract:
Palladium-containing catalyst based on binder-free granular sulfated zirconium oxide for n-butane isomerization has been investigated. It has been found that Pd content of 0.2–1.0 wt % slightly influences textural characteristics and other physicochemical properties of bifunctional catalysts; however, it determines their activity and selectivity in the reaction studied, with the optimal palladium content being 0.5 wt %. Parameters of the isomerization process have been studied depending on the composition of industrial n-butane fractions. It has been shown that impurities of isobutane, propane, neopentane, isopentane and pentane in an amount of no more than 2% do not exert a effect on isobutane production; nonetheless, the conversion of n-butane and selectivity for isobutane both increase when more pure n-butane fractions are used. It has been found that the process for isobutane production by isomerization of the n-butane fraction under the optimal conditions at H2 /n-C4 = 0.1 and 140–150°C makes it possible to obtain a high isobutane yield (up to 52 wt %) and avoid the undue formation of С1–С3 alkanes.
