RESUMO

Concerns with environmental pollution have changed most intensively since Industrial Revolution. At the beginning, environmental pollution was faced as a simple effect of the progress of humanity, but lately, it has been considered a terrible global problem. Nowadays, severe legislation for environmental pollution control has given rise to a great variety of technologies for pollution treatment. One of the solutions being proposed is catalytic hydrodechlorination. Taking this in consideration, the aim of this work is to evaluate the reaction conditions for pentachlorophenol hydrodechlorination over palladium based catalysts. This evaluation was derived from catalytic tests using 5%Pd/C and 5%Pd/TiO2 catalysts. These tests were done according to a fractional fatorial design 26-2. The 5%Pd/C solid is a comercial catalyst while the 5%Pd/TiO2 catalyst was prepared by incipient wetness impregnation technique from an aqueous solution of PdCl2. After drying, this solid was divided into two parts: one fo them was calcined 300 °C and the another was only reduced 300 °C. Results of catalyst tests indicated that 5%Pd/C and 5%Pd/TiO2 both reduced catalysts do not show any catalytic activity for liquid phase entachlorophenol hydrodechlorination. On the other hand, under an oxide form, these catalysts were not deactivated during the reaction time under investigation. Moreover, these catalyst performance also showed that the 5%Pd/C not reduced catalyst is selective to cyclohexanol, while the 5%Pd/TiO2 calcined catalyst is selective to phenol
