Application of Co-Al Catalysts in Hydrogenation of Glycidol to 1,3-Propanediol

doi:10.7503/cjcu20200236

Abstract

Abstract: 1,3-propanediol(1,3-PDO) is an important intermediate for the synthesis of polytrimethylene terephthalate(PTT), and it is currently produced via the fermentation of glycerol. In this work, a series of Co_x/Al₂O₃ catalysts were prepared via the controlled calcination and reduction of Co-Al hydrotalcite, which were introduced to catalyze the hydrogenation of glycidol to produce 1,3-PDO. The best performance was obtained over Co₂/Al₂O₃ catalyst after 5 h of reaction at 80℃ and 2 MPa H₂. The conversion of glycidol was 99.8%, and the yield of 1,3-PDO was 68.0%. This result is not only higher than that of the Ni₂/Al₂O₃ and Cu₂/Al₂O₃ catalysts prepared by the same method, but also higher than that of the Al₂O₃ supported Pt, Pd, Ru catalysts. Characterization results indicated that the interaction between active site Co and the acid site of the Al₂O₃ support is of great importance to the activity of the catalyst and the selectivity towards 1,3-PDO.
