Hydrodechlorination of alachlor in water using Pd, Ni and Cu catalysts supported on activated carbon
چکیده انگلیسی

The hydrodechlorination of alachlor with hydrogen in aqueous phase was studied in a trickle bed reactor using different activated carbon-supported catalysts. The reactor was continuously fed with a 50 mg/L solution of alachlor in water and a H2/N2 gas stream. The variables studied were space-time (44.8–448.3 kgcat h/mol), H2:N2 volumetric ratio in the gas phase (1:1–1:4), temperature (308–373 K) and pressure (0.24–0.6 MPa). The results of the hydrodechlorination experiments were evaluated in terms of alachlor conversion and ecotoxicity of the exit stream. High conversion values and important reductions of ecotoxicity were obtained working under mild conditions of temperature (323–348 K) and pressure (0.24 MPa). Palladium catalysts supported on activated carbon were found as the most active in the hydrodechlorination of alachlor, although copper and nickel catalysts led also to high conversions in the 80–93% range. The hydrodechlorination of alachlor was performed successfully with metal loads between 0.5 and 2.5 wt.% on the catalysts. A significant metal leaching was observed from the nickel and copper catalysts, which negatively affected the ecotoxicity of the final effluents. Oxidative treatment of the activated carbon supports with nitric acid previous to the impregnation with the metal precursor improved the anchorage of the active phase and reduced leaching dramatically. Likewise, the activity was not influenced by the oxidation of the supports and reductions of ecotoxicity by more than 90% were observed.
