摘要

Selective propane dehydrogenation is one of the commercialized technologies for the production of propylene and hydrogen. Here, alkaline (K) modified Pt-Sn /γ-Al2O3 catalysts were prepared via sequential incipient wetness impregnation method for the propane dehydrogenation reaction. They were characterized by BET, TEM, TPR, TPD-NH3, CO-dispersion, and TPO analysis’s. The catalytic performance towards propane dehydrogenation was assessed at an hourly gas space velocity of 10,000 cm3 (g.cat)−1 h− 1 at 580 °C up to 5 h time on stream at an absolute pressure of 1 bar. Results showed that the parent Pt-Sn/γ-Al2O3 catalyst exhibits 54.2% propane conversion at 580 °C with a poor selectivity towards propylene of 83.8%. Incorporation of K element generally increased selectivity towards propylene and decreased propane conversion. For a constant Pt and Sn content of 0.4 and 0.8 wt%, respectively, different catalysts with a K element content of 0.0, 0.3, 0.8, 1.5 and 2.5 wt% were synthesized. Optimal catalytic performance was observed for a 0.8 wt% K element content. Compared to the Pt-Sn/γ-Al2O3 sample, the optimum catalyst resulted in a 48.2% increase in propylene yield and a minimal decrease of only 3.6% in propane conversion.
