Abstract

A series of dealumination ultrastable Y-type zeolite (DUSY) supported Cu catalysts with different Cu loadings were prepared, characterized and tested in the hydrogenolysis of glycerol. The results showed that DUSY retained the Y zeolite structure and generated abundant of secondary mesoporous, which not only facilitated the 1,2-propanediol (1,2-PDO) to diffuse out the catalyst, but also improved the dispersion of Cu. Cu/DUSY catalyst exhibited single weak acid sites and unique reduced structure of Y type zeolite and resulted in a more concentrated product distribution, primarily 1,2-PDO with few glycols.
