| Resumo: | The unsustainability of the use of fossil materials generates the search for
alternative components capable of producing chemical products and energy from clean,
renewable and economically viable processes. In the context of chemical product production,
biomass is considered a source of platform molecules capable of synthesizing high value-added
chemicals. γ-Butyrolactone (GBL), for example, is an important platform molecule for the
production of 1,4-butanediol (BDO) and tetrahydrofuran (THF), these substances having
several industrial applications. Thus, the present work aimed to study the processes of catalytic
hydrogenation of γ-butyrolactone, employing bimetallic nanostructured catalysts based on
palladium and rhenium and supported on silica (PdRe/SiO2). The PdRe/SiO2 catalysts were
synthesized by the successive impregnation method and characterized in terms of their surface
and pore volume, quantity of metals, reduction temperature, crystalline structure and
morphology. The reactions were evaluated for the effect of temperature and pressure, from a
central rotational composite design, water effect (solvent) and supercritical CO2 (reaction
medium). The catalysts were characterized as mesoporous materials with narrow and uniform
pores. From the XRD of the catalyst, the Pd peaks were identified in different planes, only a
peak of Re and a characteristic peak of amorphous materials referring to silica. TEM images
showed agglomerated metal structures, but well distributed on the support. For the reactions,
only the linear temperature effect was significant for the GBL conversion, while for the BDO
selectivity, the quadratic effects of temperature and pressure were statistically significant.
Dimers of BDO and GBL were identified as products of the reactions and water had a great
influence on their formations. The effects of SC-CO2 were more expressive in increasing the
selectivity of THF. |
