Research on Oxidation of Phenanthrene to Phenanthrenequinone and Its Kinetics
Journal Title: Current Journal of Applied Science and Technology - Year 2017, Vol 20, Issue 2
Abstract
The oxidation of phenanthrene with TBHP into phenanthrenequinone and its kinetics have been studied. Reaction conditions were investigated by orthogonal test. For the oxidation of phenanthrene to phenanthrenequinone the optimum conditions as follows: molar ratio of TBHP to phenanthrene: 5:1; MoO2(acac)2 (catalyster) content: 0.05 g(per 5 g phenanthrene); reaction time: 4 h. And for its kinetics a laboratory scale completely mixed reactor was used. By using the orthogonal test and mathematic ways, such as Runge-Kutta’s integral and revised simplex for optimization, estimation of kinetic parameters was conducted. The chemical kinetic equations were obtained. These parameters could be utilized for the design, operation and optimization of the reactor in oxidation of phenanthrene to phenanthrenequinone.
