RESUMO

Organic-chlorine compounds are chemicals which main characteristic is high toxicity and persistence, both in live organisms and in the environment. Such is the case of pentachlorophenol, used as herbicide and pesticide for harvest protection and as biocide for treating woods and leathers. A very promising treatment method is the catalytic hydrodechlorination of these products using palladium based catalysts. In this context, the following work is aimed at studying the Pd/TiO2 preparation conditions and the behavior of bimetallic Pd-Ni/TiO2, Pd-Ru/TiO2 and Pd-Ti/TiO2 systems. Within the preparation variables of Pd/TiO2 catalysts, the effects of the activation treatment as well as the influence of Pd content in the solid on the catalysts performance were studied. Therefore, Pd/TiO2 catalysts were prepared by means of the dry impregnation method, and the bimetallic catalysts were prepared by co-impregnation method. The so obtained solids were characterized by the N2 adsorption technique (BET), Xray spectrometry analysis (EDX), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), temperatureprogrammed reduction (TPR), Fourier transformed-infrared spectroscopy of the chemisorbed CO (FTIR) and CO adsorption microcalorimetry. Catalysts performance was evaluated in the entachlorophenol hydrodechlorination reaction using a slurry Parr reactor. The reaction was conducted at 5 bar pressure and at 383 K temperature. Catalytic test results show that the non calcinated and non reduced 3% Pd/TiO2 catalyst allows to attain higher values for yield and for phenol selectivity, with a relatively high catalytic activity. Bimetallic catalysts with Ni and Ti are selective in the phenol formation, while the catalyst with Ru is likely more selective to attain the cyclohexanol by means of the benzene ring hydrogenation
