Methyl isobutyl ketone combustion over Pt/Al2O3 catalyst Autori: Anamaria Soare, Cristina Gheorghiu, Grigore Bozga, Magdalena BoşomoiuData aparitiei: May/June 2008 Revista: Environmental Engineering and Management Journal › Vol. 7 › Nr. 3 ISSN: 1843 - 3707 ![]() Abstract
Catalytic combustion of methyl isobutyl ketone in diluted air streams over Pt/Al2O3 commercial catalyst was experimentally investigated. The experiments were carried out at space velocities between 180 000 - 600 000 cm3/ (gcat·h) and ketone concentrations in the range of 900 - 2600 ppmv. On the studied domain of working parameters, carbon monoxide was not detected, although some organic intermediates were formed (especially acetic acid). Their presence was detected in the product mixture much behind the temperature corresponding to complete conversion of MIBK. The results evidenced that, depending on the gas flowrate, complete combustion to carbon dioxide occurs at temperatures of minimum 350 oC. |
