Abstract
The influence of the iron-exchanged zeolite catalysts on the product distribution and gas evolution behavior in the catalytic reforming of bio-oil model compound between 350 and 450 ℃ was examined in this study. The bio-oil model compound was prepared by dissolving 9 species of oxygen-containing reagents into deionized water. Four zeolites, Na-Y, NH_4-Y, Fe-Y1 (prepared from Na-Y), and Fe-Y3 (prepared from NH_4-Y), were used as catalysts in this study. By using zeolite catalysts, the product distribution changed slightly in the reforming of bio-oil model compound at 400 ℃. In the case of reforming by using Fe-Y1 catalysts, the liquid yields decreased with increasing reforming temperature.
