Catalyst Deactivation During One-Step Dimethyl Ether Synthesis from Synthesis Gas
Dadgar, Farbod; Myrstad, Rune; Pfeifer, Peter; Holmen, Anders; Venvik, Hilde Johnsen (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)Catalysts for direct synthesis of dimethyl ether (DME) from synthesis gas should essentially contain two functions, i.e., methanol synthesis and methanol dehydration. In the present work, the deactivation of both functions ... -
Deactivation of Co-Based Fischer−Tropsch Catalyst by Aerosol Deposition of Potassium Salts
Gavrilovic, Ljubisa; Brandin, Jan; Holmen, Anders; Venvik, Hilde Johnsen; Myrstad, Rune; Blekkan, Edd Anders (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)A 20%Co/0.5%Re/γAl2O3 Fischer−Tropsch catalyst was poisoned by four potassium salts (KNO3, K2SO4, KCl, and K2CO3) using the aerosol deposition technique, depositing up to 3500 ppm K as solid particles. Standard characterization ... -
Direct dimethyl ether synthesis from synthesis gas: The influence of methanol dehydration on methanol synthesis reaction
Dadgar, Farbod; Myrstad, Rune; Pfeifer, Peter; Holmen, Anders; Venvik, Hilde Johnsen (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Direct dimethyl ether (DME) synthesis from synthesis gas is studied with regard to potential effects of methanol dehydration on methanol formation and copper-based catalyst performance. For this, the influence of the ... -
The effect of aerosol-deposited ash components on a cobalt-based Fischer–Tropsch catalyst
Gavrilovic, Ljubisa; Brandin, Jan; Holmen, Anders; Venvik, Hilde Johnsen; Myrstad, Rune; Blekkan, Edd Anders (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The effect of ash salts on Co-based Fisher–Tropsch catalysts was studied using an aerosol deposition technique. The major elements in the ash were found to be K, S and Cl. The ash was deposited on a calcined catalyst as ... -
Effects of sulphur on a Co/Mn-based catalyst for Fischer-Tropsch reactions
Enger, Bjørn Christian; Walmsley, John; Svenum, Ingeborg-Helene; Tolchard, Julian R; Yang, Jia; Myrstad, Rune; Gjervan, Torbjørn; Khan, Asad Ahmad; Mutairi-Al, Abdulkarim; Karim, Khalid (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)The long term effect of up to 10 ppm H2S was studied for Fischer–Tropsch conversion of syngas by catalytic testing at 240 °C, 5 bar, H2/CO = 2.1 and GHSV = 2400 Nml/gcat h. Sulphur was dosed after ~ 300 or ~ 1000 h time ... -
Fischer-Tropsch synthesis—Investigation of the deactivation of a Co catalyst by exposure to aerosol particles of potassium salt
Gavrilovic, Ljubisa; Brandin, Jan; Holmen, Anders; Venvik, Hilde Johnsen; Myrstad, Rune; Blekkan, Edd Anders (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The influence of potassium species on a Co based Fischer-Tropsch catalyst was investigated using an aerosol deposition technique. This way of poisoning the catalyst was chosen to simulate the actual potassium behaviour ... -
