    The Kinetics of Citral Hydrogenation Over Pd Supported on Clinoptilolite Rich Natural Zeolite
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2005) Yılmaz, Selahattin; Uçar, Şule; Artok, Levent; Güleç, Hilal
    The liquid phase hydrogenation of citral has been investigated over Pd (2.42%) supported on clinoptilolite rich natural zeolite catalyst for different reaction conditions. The zeolite support did not affect the active metal properties. This was attributed to the large size of Pd particles on the support. High selectivity (90%) to citronellal was obtained at complete conversion of citral. The catalytic activity increased with reaction temperature (80, 100, 120°C) following an Arrhenius behaviour, while selectivity remained constant for a given conversion. Selectivity to citronellal increased from 78 to 90% with increase in the amount of catalyst in the reaction solution (Citral/Pd mole ratio 293, 176 and 105). The spent catalyst regained its fresh activity and selectivity upon regeneration.

    Direct Liquefaction of High-Sulfur Coals: Effect of the Catalyst, the Solvent, and the Mineral Matter
    (American Chemical Society, 2002) Gözmen, Belgin; Artok, Levent; Erbatur, Gaye; Erbatur, Oktay
    Two low-rank coals with high sulfur contents (Gediz subbituminous coal: 7.6 wt % S:dry basis. Çayirhan lignite: 5.7 wt% S:dry basis.) were subjected to hydroliquefaction. Liquefaction conditions included dry or solvent mediated runs under pressurized hydrogen without added catalyst or with the impregnated catalyst precursor ammonium heptamolybdate (AHM). Gediz coal having higher sulfur content gave 90% conversion in the absence of catalyst and solvent. Maximum conversion (98%) and maximum oil + gas yield (70%) from this coal were obtained by impregnating AHM onto coal and carrying out liquefaction in H 2/tetralin system at 450 °C for 30 min. Under the same conditions, Çayirhan lignite gave 85% conversion and 70.5% oil + gas yield. The superior hydrodesulfurization effect of impregnated AHM on the oil fraction when used in the absence of solvent (less than 0.1% S in lignite's oil and less than 1% S in subbituminous coal's oil following one-stage hydrogenation) is a promising finding of this work. AHM was found to be much more effective in liquefaction of Çayirhan lignite and this has been ascribed to the well-dispersion of AHM throughout this lignite's structure via a cation-exchange mechanism through oxygen functionalities. Strong evidence for the catalytic effect of clay minerals in coal structure on char-forming reactions during liquefaction was observed by making use of liquefaction reactions of demineralized coal samples. It was also observed that tetralin had a retarding effect on the condensation and subsequent cross-linking reactions.
