Phase Process

Ethylene glycol and propylene glycol are important representatives of polyols. On an industrial scale, they are obtained from petrochemical raw materials. Within a decade, significant efforts were made for the producing of polyols from biologically renewable raw materials - carbohydrates. The general trend for carbohydrate hydrogenolysis includes application of liquid-phase process with the use of modified metal-oxide catalysts, at 120-120 ° C and pressure of 3MPa or above. So high pressure is used for the reason to increase hydrogen solubility, and also due to the high partial pressure of low boiling solvents. We supposed that usage of high boiling solvents could allow hydrogenolysis to be performed at the lower pressure. Ethylene glycol and propylene glycol are of particular interest as such kind of solvent since they are both the main products of glucose hydrogenolysis. In this work, the process of hydrogenolysis of glucose and fructose over Cu / MgO-ZrO2 catalyst have been studied at temperature range of 160-200 °C and a pressure of 0.1-0.3 MPa in a flow reactor. The solvents were simultaneously the target products of the reaction - ethylene glycol and / or propylene glycol. Gas chromatography and 13C NMR were used for the reaction products identification. It was found that the solubility of glucose in propylene glycol is 21 % by weight, and in ethylene glycol 62% by weight. It was pointed out that the process of hydrogenolysis can take place at a pressure close to atmospheric. Under these conditions, the conversion of hexoses reaches 96-100 %. The reaction products are preferably propylene glycol and ethylene glycol. The total selectivity for C3-2 polyols is 90-94 %, that is higher than in the hydrogenolysis of glucose in aqueous solution.

Base Liquid

Ethylene glycol and propylene glycol are commonly used as thermal liquids in solar flat-plate collectors (FPCs). They are utilized as base liquid as well as for improving the stability of nanofluids in FPCs. The objective of the present paper is to introduce a renewable-derived bio glycol for use as base liquid in FPCs. The effect of base ratio (BR) of different glycol products on the performance of a conventional FPC and a nanofluidladen FPC is investigated in this paper to determine its suitability. MATLAB programming was employed for modeling the performance of the FPC operating with copper and cerium oxide nanomaterials. The results show that 20:80 bio glycol/water mixture is capable of enhancing the FPC’s energetic efficiency up to 72.1% which is higher than with either ethylene glycol and propylene glycol. The energy efficiency of a glycol-based nanofluid-filled FPC decreases with the base ratio of all three glycol products. Since bio glycol is a non-toxic and safe product, it can be utilized as a safe and environmentally-friend antifreeze and base liquid in nanofluid-filled FPCs.
