Abstract

Methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK) was synthesized from acetone (Ac) and hydrogen over Pt-HZSM5 bifunctional catalysts. The reaction was carried out at 160°C, atmospheric pressure, and with a PH2/PAc molar ratio = 0.33, using a fixed bed and dynamic flow reactor. The results show that catalytic properties and coke formation largely depend on the ratio between the number of accessible hydro-dehydrogenation sites and the number of theoretical acidic sites (nPt/nA).
