Kinetic Study on the SO2 Adsorption using CuO/γ-Al2O3 Adsorbent
No full textAdsorbent CuO/g-Al2O3 for adsorption of SO2 were prepared by impregnating Cu(NO3)2.3H2O solution. Five types of adsorbent were obtained 5Cu (intended Cu concentration of 5%, actual of 4.92%), 8Cu (7.68%), 15Cu(14.13%), 22Cu (20.80%) and 27Cu (25.80%). For activity test, model gas containing SO2 with a concentration of about 0.755 mol/m3 were passed through the bed of 1 gram adsorbent at a flow rate in the range of 1.4-1.8 mL/s. Adsorption of SO2 were carried out at a constant temperature of 300, 350, 400 or 450 °C. Increasing sulfur loadings (gram of sulfur per gram of adsorbent) were observed with increasing adsorption temperatures, but not with increasing Cu content in the adsorbent. Among those types, adsorbent of 8Cu was considered as the best with respect to the sulfur loading (3 g of sulfur per 100 g of adsorbent). Adsorbent 5Cu had actually a better sulfur loading, but it was suspected being contributed also by adsorption of SO2 on Al2O3. The shrinking core model was used in the kinetic study of adsorption using 8Cu and with additional assumption of a spherical particle. Compared to film diffusion and pore diffusion controlling step models, the reaction rate limitation was the best to fit the experimental data. The reaction rate constant for this model at temperatures of 300, 350, 400 and 450 °C were 0.022, 0.038, 0.042, and 0.059 kg.m.mol-1.min-1, respectively. The activation energy was 21.25 kJ.mol-1 and the frequency factor was 2.02 min-1. Copyright © 2016 BCREC GROUP. All rights reserved

Deaktivasi Katalis Konverter-Hidrogen Di Pabrik Urea Kaltim-3
No full textDi pabrik urea, konverter-hidrogen adalah satu reaktor yang berfungsi untuk mengkonversi hidrogen yang terikut dalam karbondioksida dengan cara mengoksidasi dengan udara, sehingga karbondioksida umpan reaktor urea itu hanya mengandung tidak lebih dari 100 ppm hidrogen. Konversi dilangsungkan pada tekanan 145 kg/cm2 dan suhu umpan reaktor 130 C, menggunakan katalis platinum berpenyangga alumina (0,3%Pt/Al2O3). Dalam dua tahun terakhir, terjadi kenaikan kandungan hidrogen dalam karbondioksida umpan konverter-hidrogen Kaltim-3 yang menyebabkan peningkatan temperatur keluaran konverter dari biasanya sekitar 152oC menjadi sekitar 190 C. Hasil analisis kadar Pt, luas permukaan katalis dan dispersi Pt terhadap katalis-baru dan katalis-terpakai menunjukkan bahwa katalis konverter-hidrogen Kaltim-3 telah terdeaktivasi. Oleh karena itu, pada kesempatan perbaikan-tahunan Juli 2006 yang lalu, katalis tersebut telah diganti dengan yang baru. Selain itu telah dilakukan pula perbaikan kondisi operasi di pabrik amoniak Kaltim-3, sehingga kadar H2 dalam aliran CO2 umpan pabrik urea Kaltim-3 menjadi normal kembali (0,4%). Dengan tindakan-tindakan tersebut, sejak Agustus 2006 yang lalu konverter hidrogen Kaltim-3 dapat beroperasi secara normal kembali. © 2007 BCREC UNDIP.

KINETIKA HIDRODESULFURISASI DIBENZOTHIOPHENE (HDS DBT) MENGGUNAKAN KATALIS NiMo/γ-Al2O3
No full textEvaluasi kinetika reaksi hidrodesulfurisasi (HDS) dibenzothiophene dan simulasi nafta hydrotreater yang berada di PT. PERTAMINA Refinery Unit II Dumai menggunakan katalis NiMo/Al2O3 hasil pengembangan telah dilakukan. Kinetika reaksi HDS DBT dilakukan dalan sistem reaktor batch dengan variasi temperatur 280-320oC dan tekanan 30 bar. Data kinetika diolah dengan persamaan hukum pangkat (law power) dan persamaan kinetik mekanistik (Langmuir Hinshelwood, LH). Berdasarkan model hukum pangkat, kinetika HDS DBT menggunakan NiMo/Al2O3 hasil pengembangan merupakan orde satu terhadap DBT dengan konstanta Arhenius sebesar 165633 detik-1 dan energi aktivasi 69017 J/mol (16,56 kkal/mol). Model LH yang cocok untuk reaksi HDS DBT menggunakan NiMo/Al2O3 hasil pengembangan adalah model LH yang mengilustrasikan adanya kompetisi antara reaktan DBT dan H2 pada tipe pusat aktif yang sama, dengan DBT teradsorb secara kuat sedangkan H2 teradsorpsi secara lemah. Energi aktifasi dan konstanta Arhenius berdasarkan model LH ini ini berturut-turut adalah 81409 J/mol (19,34 kkal/mol) dan 1658133 s-1. Dengan menggunakan persamaan laju reaksi hukum pangkat, model memberikan hasil konversi sulfur yang sama dengan hasil keluaran reaktor nafta hydrotreater RU II-Dumai, yaitu mencapai 98%.</p

PENGARUH PERBEDAAN SIFAT PENYANGGA ALUMINA TERHADAP SIFAT KATALIS HYDROTREATING BERBASIS NIKEL-MOLIBDENUM
No full textEFFECT OF ALUMINA SUPPORT PROPERTIES ON THE NICKEL-MOLIBDENUM BASE HYDROTREATING CATALYST. Effect of surface characteristics of three species of synthesized γ-alumina (alumina-1, alumina-2 and alumina-3) on characteristics NiMo catalysts has been studied. Those aluminas are derived from boehmite Catapal B by varying rasio mol nitric acid to boehmite. A sol-gel method is used to synthesize γ-Al2O3 support. The Nitrogen adsorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Temperature Programmed Reduction (TPR) of H2, Temperature Programmed Desorption (TPD) of NH3, and mechanical strength are used to characterize the supports and catalysts. The results showed that the surface area alumina affects the formation of crystalline MoO3 in the NiMo catalyst, while γ-Al2O3-3 support which has the highest surface area (about 195 m2/g) compared to the other two types of alumina (>195 m2/g) does not have a crystalline MoO3. The formation of crystalline MoO3 is not influenced by the acidity alumina. Based on the results of XRD, it is indicated that the supported alumina-3 NiMo catalyst (having the highest acid strength) shows that there is no presence of crystalline MoO3. Pore size distribution of support did not change significantly after the deposition of Ni and Mo oxides. Mechanical strength of support also affects the strength NiMo catalyst. Support alumina-3 which has the highest mechanical strength gives the mechanical strength of the highest NiMo catalyst. Pengaruh sifat penyangga γ-alumina hasil pengembangan (alumina-1, alumina-2 dan alumina-3) pada karakter katalis hydrotreating nikel-molibdenum (NiMo) telah dipelajari. Ketiga jenis γ-alumina diturunkan dari boehmite “Catapal B” dengan menvariasikan nisbah mol asam nitrat terhadap boehmite. Pembuatan γ-alumina menggunakan metoda sol-gel. Adsorpsi Nitrogen, X-ray difraksi (XRD), Temperature Programmed Reduction (TPR) H2, Temperature Programmed Desorption (TPD) NH3, dan kekuatan mekanik digunakan untuk mengkarakterisasi penyangga dan katalis. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa luas permukaan alumina mempengaruhi pembentukan kristalin MoO3 dalam katalis NiMo. Pada penyangga alumina-3 yang memiliki luas permukaan yang paling tinggi (sekitar 195 m2/g) di banding dua jenis alumina lainnya (>195 m2/g) tidak memiliki kristalin MoO3. Pembentukan kristalin MoO3 tidak dipengaruhi oleh sifat keasaman alumina. Berdasarkan hasil XRD ditunjukan bahwa pada katalis NiMo berpenyangga alumina-3 (memiliki kekuatan asam yang paling tinggi) tidak terdapat adanya kristalin MoO3. Distribusi ukuran pori peyangga tidak berubah signifikan setelah deposisi oksida Ni dan Mo. Kekuatan mekanik penyangga mempengaruhi pula kekuatan katalis NiMo. Penyangga γ Al2O3-3 yang memiliki kekuatan mekanik yang paling tinggi memberikan kekuatan mekanik katalis NiMo yang tertinggi. </p

Kinetika Reaksi Hidrogenasi Ester Lemak Menjadi Alkohol Lemak Dengan Katalis Tembaga- Mangan
No full textFatty alcohol (FAOH) can be produced by hydrogenating of fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) using the copper-based catalyst. Copper-Chrom (Cu-Cr) is the best catalyst for high-pressure reaction condition, which is copper (Cu) as the main active component and chrom (Cr) as a promoter. Since Cr is feared to be toxic, one of the best replacement candidates is manganese (Mn). The research aims is to find the kinetic equation of hydrogenation FAME to FAOH using a Cu-Mn commercial catalyst. FAME with methyl laurate and methyl myristate as the main compounds is used as feedstock. The main products are lauryl alcohol and myristyl alcohol. The reaction was carried out in an isothermal continuous fixed bed reactor under conditions of temperature 220 – 240 oC, pressure 50 bar, and liquid hourly space velocity (LHSV) 5-12.5 hr-1. The kinetic equation is determined using the power law model. The FAME hydrogenation on copper - manganese catalyst is the half order reaction. The activation energy value is 86.32 kJ/mol and the Arrhenius constant value is 5.87x106 M0.5/s
