Nickel catalyst deactivation

Figure 19.4 displays a picture obtained by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) for a nickel catalyst deactivated. A large amount of carbon filaments and agglomerates of coke can be easily identified on the catalyst surface. These filaments do not cause a direct deactivation since they consist of a-type carbon. They do, however, lead to reactor clogging. [Pg.444]

It has been shown that a small trace of sulphur on the inlet stream can reduce coke formation on the nickel catalyst. Deactivated sulphur-nickel sites inhibit the active carbon (Ca) polymerisation/isomerisation to less active carbon (Cj3) due to the lack of free sites. In other words, SR needs three to four nickel sites while carbon formation requires six to seven nickel sites. Thus, the SR catalyst loses some of its activity, but coke formation is minimal (Trimm, 1997,1999). [Pg.421]

The appHcations of supported metal sulfides are unique with respect to catalyst deactivation phenomena. The catalysts used for processing of petroleum residua accumulate massive amounts of deposits consisting of sulfides formed from the organometaHic constituents of the oil, principally nickel and vanadium (102). These, with coke, cover the catalyst surface and plug the pores. The catalysts are unusual in that they can function with masses of these deposits that are sometimes even more than the mass of the original fresh catalyst. Mass transport is important, as the deposits are typically formed... [Pg.182]

However, attempts to reuse the ionic catalyst solution in consecutive batches failed. While the products could readily be isolated after the reaction by extraction with SCCO2, the active nickel species deactivated rapidly within three to four batch-wise cycles. The fact that no such deactivation was observed in later experiments with the continuous flow apparatus described below (see Figure 5.4-2) clearly indicate the deactivation of the chiral Ni-catalyst being mainly related to the instability of the active species in the absence of substrate. [Pg.286]

Four pilot plant experiments were conducted at 300 psig and up to 475°C maximum temperature in a 3.07-in. i.d. adiabatic hot gas recycle methanation reactor. Two catalysts were used parallel plates coated with Raney nickel and precipitated nickel pellets. Pressure drop across the parallel plates was about 1/15 that across the bed of pellets. Fresh feed gas containing 75% H2 and 24% CO was fed at up to 3000/hr space velocity. CO concentrations in the product gas ranged from less than 0.1% to 4%. Best performance was achieved with the Raney-nickel-coated plates which yielded 32 mscf CHh/lb Raney nickel during 2307 hrs of operation. Carbon and iron deposition and nickel carbide formation were suspected causes of catalyst deactivation. [Pg.96]

Flame-Sprayed Raney Nickel Plates vs. Pellets of Precipitated Catalyst in a Packed Bed. Experiments HGR-13 and HGR-14 demonstrated that the performance of the plates sprayed with Raney nickel catalyst was significantly better than that of the precipitated nickel catalyst pellets. The sprayed plates yielded higher production of methane per pound of catalyst, longer catalyst life or lower rate of deactivation, lower CO concentration in the product gas, and lower pressure drop across the catalyst bed. [Pg.117]

The initial reactivities of the catalyst beds in experiments HGR-13 and HGR-14 are considered satisfactorily high however, the overall rate of deactivation of the Raney nickel catalyst bed (0.029% /mscf/lb) was... [Pg.117]

Nickel carbide, detected on the catalyst in experiment HGR-14, is another compound suspected of deactivating Raney nickel catalyst. However, the shutdown involved purging with hydrogen while the catalyst... [Pg.119]

Nickel catalysts were used in most of the methanation catalytic studies they have a rather wide range of operating temperatures, approximately 260°-538°C. Operation of the catalytic reactors at 482°-538°C will ultimately result in carbon deposition and rapid deactivation of the catalysts (10). Reactions below 260°C will usually result in formation of nickel carbonyl and also in rapid deactivation of the catalysts. The best operating range for most fixed-bed nickel catalysts is 288°-482 °C. Several schemes have been proposed to limit the maximum temperature in adiabatic catalytic reactors to 482°C, and IGT has developed a cold-gas recycle process that utilizes a series of fixed-bed adiabatic catalytic reactors to maintain this temperature control. [Pg.134]

Fig. 3 showed the catalyst stability of Ni-Mg/HY, Ni-Mn/HY, and Ni/HY catalysts in the methme reforming with carbon dioxide at 700°C. Nickel and promoter contents were fixed at 13 wt.% and 5 wt.%, respectively. Initial activities over M/HY and metal-promoted Ni/HY catalysts were almost the same. It is noticeable that the addition of Mn and Mg to the Ni/HY catalyst remarkably stabilized the catalyst praformance and retarded the catalyst deactivation. Especially, the Ni-Mg/HY catalyst showed methane and carbon dioxide conversions more thrm ca. 85% and 80%, respectively, without significant deactivation even after the 72 h catalytic reaction. [Pg.192]

Figure 8.7 confirms that this is correct A single nickel catalyst used for steam reforming of n-butane deactivates steadily and gains weight due to the accumulation of carbon, but a Ni-Au catalyst maintains its reforming activity at a constant level [F. Besenbacher, I. ChorkendorfF, B.S. Clausen, B. Hammer, A.M. Molenbroek, J.K. Norskov and I. Stensgaard, Science 279 (1998) 1913]. [Pg.309]

Nickel catalysts used in steam reforming are more resistant to deactivation by carbon deposition if the surface contains sulfur, or gold. Explain why these elements act as promoters. Would you prefer sulfur or gold as a promoter Explain your answer. [Pg.410]

In CO2 reforming, most of the reported research has been focused on non-noble metal catalysts, particularly nickel, because nickel has activity and selectivity comparable to those of noble metals, at much less cost. However, thermodynamic investigations indicated that the nickel-containing catalysts are prone to carbon deposition in CO2 reforming, resulting in catalyst deactivation (5). Therefore, an important challenge is to increase the resistance of nickel-containing catalysts to deactivation by carbon deposition. [Pg.346]

Recently, it has been shown that ultrasonic agitation during hydrogenation reactions over skeletal nickel can slow catalyst deactivation [122-124], Furthermore, ultrasonic waves can also significantly increase the reaction rate and selectivity of these reactions [123,124], Cavitations form in the liquid reaction medium because of the ultrasonic agitation, and subsequently collapse with intense localized temperature and pressure. It is these extreme conditions that affect the chemical reactions. Various reactions have been tested over skeletal catalysts, including xylose to xylitol, citral to citronellal and citronellol, cinnamaldehyde to benzenepropanol, and the enantioselective hydrogenation of 1-phenyl-1,2-propanedione. Ultrasound supported catalysis has been known for some time and is not peculiar to skeletal catalysts [125] however, research with skeletal catalysts is relatively recent and an active area. [Pg.151]

While the reductive elimination is a major pathway for the deactivation of catalytically active NHC complexes [127, 128], it can also be utilized for selective transformations. Cavell et al. [135] described an interesting combination of oxidative addition and reductive elimination for the preparation of C2-alkylated imida-zohum salts. The in situ generated nickel catalyst [Ni(PPh3)2] oxidatively added the C2-H bond of an imidazolium salt to form a Ni hydrido complex. This complex reacts under alkene insertion into the Ni-H bond followed by reductive elimination of the 2-alkylimidazolium salt 39 (Fig. 14). Treatment of N-alkenyl functionalized azolium salts with [NiL2] (L = carbene or phosphine) resulted in the formation of five- and six-membered ring-fused azolium (type 40) and thiazolium salts [136, 137]. [Pg.110]

In acetylenes containing double bonds the triple bond was selectively reduced by controlled treatment with hydrogen over special catalysts such as palladium deactivated with quinoline [565] or lead acetate [56], or with triethylam-monium formate in the presence of palladium [72]. 1-Ethynylcyclohexene was hydrogenated to 1-vinylcyclohexene over a special nickel catalyst (Nic) in 84% isolated yield [49]. [Pg.45]
