This research describes the zeolite use in the oligomerization and catalytic ketonization steps of the MixAlco process. In this book, the following six products associated with the MixAlco process were studied: acetic acid, mixed acids, acetone, mixed ketones, isopropanol, and mixed alcohols. The effect of the temperature (T), weight hourly space velocity (WHSV), type of catalyst, feed composition, and pressure (P) were studied. For the isopropanol and mixed alcohol reactions, the following conditions were used: HZSM-5 (280, moles of silica per mole of alumina = 280), T = 300-510 C, and P =...
