Kinetic Model for Electrochemical Hydrodechlorination of 2-chlorobiphenyl on a Palladium-Modified Nickel Foam Electrode in a Plug Flow Reactor

摘要

A reactor model was established to describe the electrochemical hydrodechlorination of 2- chlorobiphenyl (2-ClBP) in a plug flow reactor. This model was based on the pseudo-first-orderreaction rate constants obtained under various temperatures (T), current densities (J), initialconcentrations of 2-ClBP (C2-ClBP,0), and Pd loadings (M). The simple global power-law rate (r2-ClBP)6 0.0141 equation, with Arrhenius dependency, was determined to be r2-ClBP = .0982 10 C2-ClBP,00.9307 1.3461 4615/RT M J e C2-ClBP. Results predicted by using the model are in good agreement withexperimental values, showing deviation of <8.9%.
