Description générale

Choosing a Molecular Sieve:
1. The preferential adsorption of one molecule over another depends upon pore diameter and mesh size.
2. The dynamic capacity of the silica gel for adsorbing a particular compound is governed by the internal surface area; the greater the surface area, the greater the dynamic capacity.
3. Rate of adsorption and sharpness of resolution are dependent chiefly on particle size and column packing; a fine particle size gives optimum sharpness of resolution.
4. Liquids are most readily adsorbed from solvents in which they are least soluble; a good solvent makes a good desorbing agent.
5. Highly polar liquids are readily adsorbed. Compounds having hydroxyl groups, or containing oxygen are strongly adsorbed.
6. For similar compounds, the higher the molecular weight the higher the selectivity.
7. For hydrocarbons of similar molecular weight, adsorptivity increases with the number of double bonds.
Molecular sieves are crystalline metal aluminosilicates having a three-dimensional interconnecting network of silica and alumina tetrahedra. Natural water of hydration is removed from this network by heating to produce uniform cavities which selectively adsorb molecules of a specific size. The 5A form has divalent calcium ions in place of sodium cations give apertures of ~5Å, which exclude molecules of effective diameter >5Å (for example: all 4-carbon rings and iso-compounds). These molecular sieves can adsorb compounds such as n-butane, n-butyl alcohol, propane, docosane and dichlorodifluoro-methane.
Molecular sieves, 5Å are in the form of beads having a particle size in the range of 8-12mesh. Its chemical composition is Ca/nNa12-2n[(AlO2)12(SiO2)12]·xH2O. It is widely employed as an adsorbent. They have been reported to improve the synthesis of structurally diverse α, β-unsaturated esters. Also, they are promising scavengers of small alkynes. They effectively remove 2-butyne by-product formed during alkyne metathesis reactions.
Regeneration or Activation:
A saturated molecular sieve can be restored to its original capacity by regeneration, the principle of which involves changing the conditions surrounding the adsorbent to correspond to a very low equilibrium capacity. In general, the greater the difference between the equilibrium capacities of adsorption and regeneration, the more rapid and complete the regeneration.
The sieve may be regenerated in one of four ways:
1. Thermal reactivation –The maximum regeneration temperature for Silica is 300°C.
2. Pressure reactivation
3. Passing an appropriate fluid through the gel bed at normal temperature and pressure.
4. Displacement of adsorbates by passing a high concentration of molecules in a fluid through the bed.

Application

Molecular sieves, 5 Å may be used in the following processes:
  • Separation of normal paraffins from branched-chain and cyclic hydrocarbons.
  • Removal of hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide and mercaptans from natural gas.
