While a large segment of the US industry,

including the petroleum, chemical,
pharmaceutical, automotive, and energy
industries makes and/or uses catalysts, there
has been no academic program focusing on
the operations required to make catalytic
materials. Thus, catalyst manufacturing
processes are often designed relying on
empiricism, leading to uncertain/suboptimal processes, decreased quality, and
increased cost. By combining the substantial
level of expertise in particle technology,
optimization, multi-scale simulation,
catalysis and molecular modeling available
at Rutgers, we are developing and promoting
science-based methods for designing and
optimizing catalyst manufacturing methods
and processes such as impregnation, drying,
slurry mixing, extrusion, calcination, etc.
This is integrated with a number of
educational activities including research
training of undergraduate students, graduate
students and postdoctoral fellows in the area
of Catalyst Manufacturing. A combination of
experiments and computer models has been
used to improve the understanding and
performance of the unit operations used to
make catalysts. This knowledge, and the
resulting methods and practices, have been
transferred to Industrial partners to help
transform this important segment of the
global economy into a science-driven
enterprise. The specific goals of the
consortium are:
To create a world-wide prime Center of
Excellence in catalyst manufacturing
research.
To enhance fundamental understanding
of catalyst manufacturing operations.
To develop new technology for efficient
catalyst manufacturing.
To provide a research, development, and
education resource for industry.
The consortium was founded on October 1,
2003. The Rutgers faculty that are currently
participating in the consortium and their
expertise areas are: Benjamin J. Glasser
(drying, fluidized beds), Johannes G.
Khinast (drying, catalysis), Fernando J.
Muzzio (particle technology, mixing), Arthur
Chester (industrial liaison, catalyst
preparation), William Borghard
(calcination, catalyst preparation), Silvina
Tomassone (impregnation, interfaces),
Alberto Cuitino (particle technology,

compaction), and Rohit Ramachandran

(particle technology, agglomeration).
The annual fee for membership in the
consortium is $35,000. These are
unrestricted funds for research. The
consortium members (companies and
faculty) meet every 6 months (October and
March) for project reviews. In the October
meeting, the consortium decides on
continuing with current projects or starting
new projects. Where consensus is not
possible, a vote is taken, with each company
getting one vote. Copies of the slides from
the talks at the consortium meeting are
made available to the consortium members.
In addition, each project provides a written
report on progress every six months.

Impregnation of Catalysts

and the allowance of catalyst support particles to
absorb the water, thus increasing weight and
density; Figure 1 shows an example of fluid spraying
onto a powder bed.
Furthermore, cohesive
properties have been taken into account and allow
for a linear increase as a function of maximum
support capacity. Experimental techniques are used
to validate computational models by measuring

Catalyst impregnation is a crucial process in the

preparation of industrial catalysts. In this process,
metal salts or complexes are dissolved in a typically
aqueous solution and contacted with a porous oxide
catalyst support such as alumina (Al2O3) or silica
(SiO2). During a contact time of typically 30-60
minutes the metal is adsorbed from the solution
onto the high surface area support. The
catalyst is dried and further pretreated to
transform the metal from its precursor
state into its active form. Generally, the
process of impregnation is performed in
rotating vessels with one or more nozzles
that distribute the solution with the
metal precursor into the catalyst
support. The process is typically referred
to as dry impregnation as the amount of Figure 2: Experimental impregnation study using 3 x 6 mm

conditions that are applied during impregnation

where the metal contacts the solid support for the
first time. However, experiments have shown that
drying may also significantly impact the metal
distribution within the support. Therefore, to
achieve a desired metal profile we need to
understand both impregnation and drying.
Controlling the drying conditions can enhance
catalyst performance.
The goal of this project is to develop a
fundamental understanding of unit operations
during catalyst preparation, and predict, control
and optimize metal distribution and dispersion of
supported catalysts. Therefore, we can provide our
partners with efficient tools to monitor and
control the final quality of supported catalysts. In
this work we have developed a theoretical model
for
drying
which
we
have
validated
experimentally. In this model, we have taken into
account heat transfer from the hot air to the wet
support, solvent evaporation in the support,
convective flow towards the support external
surface due to the capillary force, and metal
diffusion and metal deposition due to adsorption
and crystallization (see Figure 3a). In general, the
convective flow is the main driving force to
transport the metal component and the solvent
towards the support external surface (t=500s in
Figure 3b), while the back-diffusion causes metal
to transport towards the support center (t=1000s
in Figure 3b). Experiments have been carried out
to measure the distribution and dispersion of
metal in catalyst supports in order to validate our
modeling work. In Figure 3c, the metal profiles
after drying are plotted from the support center to
the surface for Ni/Alumina catalysts, where
symbols represent experimental data and solid
lines represent simulation results. It is clear that a
nearly uniform distribution is observed for low
drying temperature while egg-shell profiles can be
greatly enhanced with increasing the drying rate.
In this project, we have examined the distribution
and dispersion of Nickel, Copper, Barium, and/or
Palladium on Alumina and Silica. We are interested
in investigating the importance of the physical
properties of the solid support (porosity, pore size
distribution, particle size) and liquid solution (pH,

concentration), and the nature of interactions that

exist between the dissolved metal and the solid

Characterization
The goal of this project is to develop a fundamental
understanding of granular and powder flow and
shear properties, so that the behavior of
intermediate and final catalyst products during
manufacturing and processing can be predicted and
controlled. The techniques and
methods investigated in this project
could provide our partners with
valuable tools and ideas to
efficiently design and scale catalyst
manufacturing processes.

ability of the characterization methods to predict the

Mulling/Extrusion of
Catalyst Supports
Mulling/Extrusion is one of the most efficient
techniques for producing objects with constant cross
section and with high symmetry such as rods, tubes,
honeycomb structures and channels. The extruded
products find applications in catalyst supports, heat
exchanger tubes etc. Most catalysts used in the
petrochemical and petroleum industries consist of
metals supported on -alumina pellets or spheres.
The -alumina is formed by calcination of boehmite
(-alumina monohydrate, AlOOH) at 500-550C.
Boehmite is one of the most widely used precursors

literature is available with regards to the

fundamental chemistry occurring during alumina
mulling prior to extrusion using a high shear mixer.
The purpose of the high speed granulation is to
improve the properties of the feed powder. It can
improve handling properties of a powder, reduce
dust formation, eliminate segregation of two
powders, improve powder solubility, and improve
the extruded product properties-porosity and
strength. Powder XRD line widths suggested that

were significantly decreasing. Of particular interest,
porosimetry indicated that the very high shear
(Fukae) mixer used in the lab produced a bimodal
pore distribution, whereas a larger scale industrial
mixer (Eirich) did not, as shown in Figure 9.

Slurry Mixing
The goal of this project is to study the mixing
dynamics of slurries used to make catalyst supports.
It is important to have homogeneity throughout the
mixing domain so that all the catalyst supports have
the same properties. To this end, it is necessary to
characterize exactly what is going on inside these
high solids loading, low moisture fluids. This will
help optimize available systems as well as potentially
help toward designing new ones.
In this project, we have produced experiments and
simulations to assess rates, optimal conditions, and

Newtonian fluid formulations. Figure 10 shows

typical results from numerous simulations and
experiments performed through the RutgersIndustry collaboration.
Findings of this research include the following.
-

Experiments reveal that zeolite and kaolin

powders do not mix well in suspension, and
appear to exhibit tendencies to separate
under vigorous agitation.

Fluid Dynamic (CFD) simulation of dye mixing in Poincare section: i.e. intersections of fluid

contained. (c) 3D CFD of flow following injection of a bolus of material near bottom of tank. The
bolus (red) is transported around the tank as the impellers turn, but vertical transport is considerably
slower. (d) Multiple dye injection experiment performed to validate simulations confirms that there is
a central compartment (red dye) that is separated from a second outer compartment (green dye).
Mixing within either compartment is comparatively fast, however mixing between compartments is
considerably slower. This compartmentalization persists across scales in both simulations and
experiments.

Research focused on mixing in tanks stirred with

include zeolite, kaolin, and power-law nonscale-up behaviors of slurry mixing.

Experiments and simulations both produce

with
strongly separated internal and external
mixing regions. Although mixing within
each compartment is comparatively efficient,
a bottleneck between the compartments
renders mixing between compartments
nearly nonexistent.
Empirical scaling relations were produced to
permit relating bench-scale experiments to
pilot-scale and larger mixing.
It was
determined that by by varying impeller speed
as well as mixing time, one can achieve
dynamical similarity in large as well as small
mixing tanks of similar geometric ratios.

Continuous Powder Blending

In the catalyst industry, quantification of
mixing rates and mixing performance
of
powders is crucial for final product properties
and performance, and online monitoring is
always more attractive than offline approaches.
In this project a new continuous mixer was
designed and implemented to examine
homogenization of materials used in catalyst
formulations. Experiments were carried out (1)
to identify formulations of variable cohesion,
consisting of mixtures of silica, alumina, and
zeolites with various particle sizes, selected in
collaboration with our sponsors, (2) to develop
analytical methods, based on NIR spectrometry,
suited for fast and inexpensive analysis of blend
samples, and adaptable for on-line monitoring,
and (3) to examine the performance of blending
operations as a function of essential process
parameters (processing flow rate, blend
composition, agitator speed). Results of this
project include: (1) Quantification of mixing
rates and mixing performance in new
processing equipment relevant to sponsor
members was determined as a function of blend
cohesion, fill level, blender speed, and flow rate.
(2) A family of standard formulations, suitable
for examining the effects of blend cohesion in
other systems and supplemented by validated

NIR analytical methods was developed as well as

analytical methods suitable for online monitoring.
The new continuous dry blender device used in this
project is shown in Figure 11a. As material enters the
mixer, the powder passes the pathway of several
impellers. Convection is the primary source of
mixing, since a series of impellers exist around the
axial length of the horizontal cylinder. The
equipment has three innovative design features: (1)
The system considered in this study has the
flexibility of adjusting the angle at which the mixer
processes (see Figure 11a). The combination of the
blender angle and blade angle controls the degree of
back-mixing to axial convection, and determines the
number of theoretical equivalent stirred tanks
along the axis of the mixer. (2) The powder is
discharged through a screen (see Figure 11a). This
feature ensures that agglomerates are destroyed in
the mixer. By varying the mesh of this screen,
different degrees of micro-homogeneity can be
accomplished. (3) The powders leaving the mixer

may also re-enter as a recycle stream. Standard

catalytic materials of varying cohesion were tested in
this work. The main observations are as follows: (1)
Mixing performance is largely limited by the quality
of the feeders. As shown in Figure 11(b), two Eriez
vibratory feeders were used to feed the powder into
the mixer. (2) Mixing quality improves with
residence time. (3) The number and spacing of
blades plays a critical role in minimizing stagnant
regions in the blender. (4) Mixing is better at higher
speeds. (5) Incline angle has an effect on
performance, but results at this point do not display
a simple trend. (6) Electrostatic agglomeration of
cohesive powders on the surface of blades was
observed. the cohesive powders then accumulated in
stagnant
regions,

affecting
the
concentration of the discharge stream (see Figure
11c).
