The primary aim of this thesis is to develop a fundamental, mathematical model for high pressure propene oligomerisation over H-ZSM-5. To this end, this introductory chapter first revises the characteristics and applications of catalysts which have been shown to be active for oligomerisation. This is further split into acid catalysts, heterogeneous nickel catalysts, other transition metal catalysts and finally homogeneous metal catalysts. The next section covers the various mechanisms of oligomerisation on different catalyst types since an understanding of these mechanisms is an important step in the modelling process. Following this, the modelling of oligomerisation reactions is reviewed with an additional section on other complex reaction models. Throughout this chapter heterogeneous acid catalysts are given the most emphasis, especially H-ZSM-5, since this thesis is concerned with modelling oligomerisation over acid catalysts. The final sections of this chapter cover the objectives of this study and the approach to studying this complex reaction in detail. 2014-11-05T17:33:46Z 2014-11-05T17:33:46Z 1996 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/9248 eng application/pdf Department of Chemical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town |
