Abstract
In this study, we synthesized eight palladium-based catalysts using two carriers, ZrO2 and MCM-41. These catalysts were used for the degradation of condensed tannins extracted from larch bark. The average polymerization degree and degradation rate of the products were used as indicators to evaluate the efficiency of degradation. The effects of different Pd:Cu loading ratios under the same carrier conditions and the effects of different carriers under the same Pd:Cu loading ratio were investigated. The results revealed that when the carrier was kept constant, the Pd:Cu ratio of 1:1 exhibited the highest efficiency in degrading condensed tannins. Moreover, when the Pd:Cu loading ratio was the same, the degradation efficiency was higher when ZrO2 was used as the carrier. Based on these findings, the catalyst (Pd1-Cu1)5/ZrO2 (where “1” are the molar ratios of Pd to Cu added during the preparation of the catalyst and where ‘5’ is the mass percentage of Pd/Cu metal to total catalyst, i.e., 5 wt%), with ZrO2 as the carrier and a Pd:Cu ratio of 1:1, demonstrated the highest degradation efficiency, with a degradation rate of 73.89%. This catalyst successfully reduced the average polymerization degree of condensed tannins from 9.5 to 2.48.
期刊介绍:
Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering is aimed at capturing current developments and initiatives in chemical engineering related and specialised areas. Publishing six issues each year, the journal showcases innovative technological developments, providing an opportunity for technology transfer and collaboration.
Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering will focus particular attention on the key areas of: Process Application (separation, polymer, catalysis, nanotechnology, electrochemistry, nuclear technology); Energy and Environmental Technology (materials for energy storage and conversion, coal gasification, gas liquefaction, air pollution control, water treatment, waste utilization and management, nuclear waste remediation); and Biochemical Engineering (including targeted drug delivery applications).
