皮克林界面催化劑(PIC)近年來(lái)被廣泛應(yīng)用于液-液反應(yīng)中，它不僅能顯著減小液滴尺寸和擴(kuò)散距離來(lái)加強(qiáng)傳質(zhì)，而且為有價(jià)值活性位點(diǎn)的固定提供了一個(gè)靈活的平臺(tái)。然而，催化劑流動(dòng)性的限制在某種程度上降低了催化劑的活性。為了獲得良好的反應(yīng)效率，我們首次報(bào)道了一種利用Pickering乳液和超聲概念協(xié)同增強(qiáng)雙相反應(yīng)的方法，以高效生產(chǎn)生物柴油為目標(biāo)。采用基于Box-Behnken設(shè)計(jì)的響應(yīng)面方法對(duì)催化劑組成、反應(yīng)溫度、超聲功率、甲醇油摩爾比和催化劑用量等反應(yīng)條件進(jìn)行了優(yōu)化。超聲輔助皮克林界面催化在2.5 h內(nèi)可獲得98%以上的生物柴油，比超聲輔助均相酯交換體系提高2倍以上。與機(jī)械攪拌輔助Pickering乳液體系相比，超聲輔助Pickering乳液體系的反應(yīng)時(shí)間縮短了3.6倍。
Recently, Pickering interfacial catalyst (PIC) was widely applied for liquid-liquid reactions, in view of not only intensifying the mass transfer through significant reducing both the drop sizes and the diffusion distance, but also supplying a flexible platform for the immobilization of valuable active sites. However, the restriction of the mobility of catalyst somehow decreases the activity of a catalyst. To obtain a promise reaction efficiency, we firstly report a synergistic method to enhance the biphasic reaction by Pickering emulsion and ultrasound concepts, targeted at efficient production of biodiesel. Response surface methodology based on Box-Behnken design was applied to optimize the reaction conditions, such as composition of catalyst, reaction temperature, ultrasound power, methanol to oil molar ratio and catalyst amount. An over 98% yield of biodiesel could be achieved within 2.5 hours by ultrasound assisted Pickering interfacial catalysis, which is over two times higher than that of ultrasound assisted homogeneous transesterification system. Besides, the ultrasound assisted Pickering emulsion shortened the reaction time by 3.6 fold when compared to mechanical stirring assisted Pickering emulsion system.
