Regulation mechanism of three key parameters on catalytic characterization of molybdenum modified bimetallic micro-mesoporous catalysts during catalytic fast pyrolysis of enzymatic hydrolysis lignin

Abstract

Novel preparation of molybdenum modified bimetallic micro-mesoporous catalyst was proposed innovatively to conduct catalytic fast pyrolysis of enzymatic hydrolysis lignin. The optimal catalytic characterization of the prepared catalyst was attributed to appropriate porous structure, the interaction between zeolite support and metal species, and the synergetic and stable mechanism of bimetallic active sites. With the incorporation of metal species into micro-mesoporous catalyst, the distribution of active sites experienced a regulation, which contributed to MAHs production and cracking of oxygen-containing substances. NiMo/AZM catalyst exhibited the most obvious coke inhibition effect (8.47 wt% of mass yield) and converted more high-ordered graphite carbon to low-ordered one, so as to make it easier to remove and prolong the catalyst lifetime, and obtained the highest mass yield of MAHs (13.15 wt%) as well as the minimum selectivity of bulky oxygenates (3.82%), which was the joint contribution of three key parameters.
