Modeling of Side Reactions in Propane Dehydrogenation Over Pt-Sn/γ-Al2O3 Catalyst, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Khorasheh, Farhad (Supervisor)
Abstract
The kinetics of side reactions in dehydrogenation of propane over a supported platinum catalyst modified by tin was investigated. Catalytic dehydrogenation over a commercial Pt-Sn/γ-Al2O3 was carried out in a laboratory-scale plug-flow reactor at 580 to 620oC under atmospheric pressure. Several kinetic models derived from different reaction mechanisms were tested using experimental data obtained over a range of reaction conditions. It was found that the kinetics of the main dehydrogenation reaction was best described in terms of a Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism where adsorption of propane was the rate controlling step. Simple power low rate expressions were used to express the kinetics of...
