Adsorptive Removal of Dimethyl Disulfide in Olefin Rich C4 with Ion-Exchanged Zeolites

초록

The purpose of this study is to investigate the removal of dimethyl disulfide (DMDS) in the olefin rich Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) C4 hydrocarbon mixture with the ion-exchanged beta-zeolite. Effects of Si/Al ratio, metal cations, and the ion exchange level on the removal efficiency have been accessed by performing the breakthrough experiment with a model C4 mixture of 20 ppm DMDS in 40% n-Butane/60%1-Butene. The metal ions used for the preparation of ion exchanged zeolite are Ag(I), Ni(II), Fe(III), and Cu(I). The adsorption characteristics of 1-Butene and DMDS on the adsorbent have been studied through the temperature programmed desorption (TPD).
