Kinetics of Decomposition Reactions of Acetic Acid Using DFT Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
Excessive amount of oxygen content in unprocessed bio-oil deteriorates the quality of bio-oil which cannot be used in transportation vehicles without upgrading. Acetic acid (CH3COOH) is a vital component of ‘acids’ catalogue of unprocessed bio-oil produced from thermochemical conversions of most of biomass feedstocks such as switchgrass, alfalfa, etc. In this study, the decomposition reactions of acetic acid are carried out by two reaction pathways, i.e., decarboxylation and dehydration reactions. In addition, the reaction rates of decomposition are analysed in a wide range of temperatures, i.e., 298-900 K and at atmospheric pressure.

In the present work, impact of Lewis acid (LA) catalysts BF3, BCl3, and BBr3 on the kinetics andregioselectivity of 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (1,3-DC) reaction between azidobenzene and acroleinwas theoretically studied using B3LYP/6-31G* level. Our results indicate while the uncatalyzed 1,3-DC reaction under investigation takes place via a non-polar, non-regioselective, and lowasynchronous proc...
متن کاملExperimental and DFT studies of the conversion of ethanol and acetic acid on PtSn-based catalysts.
Reaction kinetics studies were conducted for the conversions of ethanol and acetic acid over silica-supported Pt and Pt/Sn catalysts at temperatures from 500 to 600 K. Addition of Sn to Pt catalysts inhibits the decomposition of ethanol to CO, CH4, and C2H6, such that PtSn-based catalysts are active for dehydrogenation of ethanol to acetaldehyde. Furthermore, PtSn-based catalysts are selective ...
