Abstract
An investigation study for conversion and trans-isomerization selectivity of sunflower oil hydrogenation on Pd/SiO2 and Pd-B/SiO2 catalysts was performed. The Pd/SiO2 catalyst was prepared by wet impregnation, then a chemical reduction was performed on Pd/SiO2 to produce Pd-B/SiO2 catalyst. Both catalysts were characterized by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area analysis, X-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The chemically reduced palladium catalyst (Pd-B/SiO2) showed different properties than Pd/SiO2 catalyst. Hydrogenation of sunflower oil was performed on both Pd/SiO2 and Pd-B/SiO2 catalysts at 383 K, hydrogen pressure of 500 kPa and agitation of 1450 rpm for 1 h. The Pd-B/SiO2 catalyst exhibited distinctive behaviour in terms of conversion and trans-isomerization selectivity. It achieved around a 12.8 % higher conversion and a 35 % lower tendency to form trans-fatty acids than Pd/SiO2. Furthermore, Pd-B/SiO2 exhibited higher overall activity than the Escat 1351 commercial catalyst and some other reported palladium catalysts. The chemical reduction for Pd/SiO2 catalyst enhances the catalyst activity and trans-isomerization selectivity. The chemical reduction of palladium supported catalyst using potassium borohydride has a noticeable effects on the catalyst morphology, conversion and tendency to form trans-fatty acids.
