Separation of Branched Alkane Feeds with Metal-Organic Frameworks

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:The production of high-quality gasoline is currently achieved through the Total Isomerization Process that separates n/iso-paraffins in the pentane (C5) and hexane (C6) range while not reaching the ultimate goal of a research octane number (RON) higher than 92. This work demonstrates two promising alternatives/strategies using metal-organic frameworks (MOF) that lead to a novel adsorptive separation process to overcome this limitation. Here, the efficient discrimination of C5/C6 alkane isomers into valuable fractions of high RON (HRON – 2,3-dimethylbutane (23DMB; RON 105), 2,2-dimethylbutane (22DMB; RON 94), and isopentane (iC5; RON 93.5)) and low RON (LRON – n-pentane (nC5; RON 61.7), (nC6; RON 30), 2-methylpentane (2MP; RON 74.5), and 3-methylpentane (3MP; RON 75.5)) compounds is achieved.
