Study of the copper leaching in the wet oxidation of phenol with CuO-based catalysts: Causes and effects
چکیده انگلیسی
Catalytic wet oxidation of phenol as a model pollutant has been performed in a three phase fixed-bed reactor (FBR) by using a commercial catalyst based on copper oxide in order to analyze the variables affecting significantly the copper leaching. It has been found that temperature has an almost negligible influence in the range studied (70-160 °C). On the contrary, an important effect of the pH value was noticed. The copper leaching reduces when the pH of the solution fed to the reactor increases, being almost negligible at pH ≥ 5. Moreover, the composition of the reaction media also influences the leaching. Higher copper concentrations than those expected by the effect of the acid aqueous media have been measured in the reactor effluent when phenol, catechol, hydroquinone, p-benzoquinone and maleic acid are present in the reaction media. On the contrary, oxalic acid has a negative influence on the leaching, since it captures the copper in solution to form copper oxalate which precipitates on the catalyst surface. For a previously acidified medium, the acetic and formic acids do not have any other effect on the copper leaching. It has been also demonstrated that as copper in solution decreases, so does phenol conversion, because the homogeneous catalysis contributes significantly to the oxidation reactions even in fixed-bed reactors.
