METHOD FOR SYNTHESIS OF MOLYBDENUM CARBIDE CATALYST FOR HYDRODEOXYGENATION

摘要

The present invention relates to a molybdenum carbide catalyst which is used in a process of manufacturing hydrocarbons, especially diesel class hydrocarbons, through hydrodeoxygenation reaction from bio-oil and fatty acid produced from the bio-oil; and to a manufacturing method thereof. The molybdenum carbide supported catalyst of the present invention is able to obtain hydrocarbons in high yield from organic oxygen compounds since molybdenum carbide nanoparticles with high dispersion rate are easily manufactured using supercritical fluid; is environmentally-friendly by preventing the emission of sulfur during hydrodeoxygenation reaction since sulfur compounds are not used like existing catalysts in order to maintain performance and activation processes of the catalysts as stated above; and is economical since hydrogen consumption due to water-soluble gas shift reaction or methanation reaction caused by the intense side reaction of an existing noble metal catalyst is able to be reduced. Additionally, the present invention manufactures renewable fuel without oxygen, thereby being able to solve problems caused by using existing FAME biodiesel in addition to an existing gasoline or diesel engine.
