7 Mechanocatalytic Reactions Reactants, catalysts, and milling balls are mixed. No solvents are used during the milling. Separation of products can become more efficient. Shaker Mill Q. Zhang, and F. Jerome, ChemSusChem 6 (2013) 2042.

8 Catalytic Sites in Ball Milling Shaker Mill C + 1/2 2 C 2 over Cr 2 3 The rate of C oxidation over a Cr 2 3 catalysts increased dramatically when the shaker mill is running. The effect is completely reversibly and repeatable. Milling creates short lived but highly active catalytic sites. Shaker Mill Plug Flow Reactor S. Immohr, M. Felderhoff, C. Weidenthaler, F. Schüth, Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 52 (2013)

10 ydrolysis of Carbohydrates 2 [ + ] Carbohydrates can be depolymerized by addition of water to the glycosidic bond. ydrolysis of carbohydrates is catalyzed by acids or enzymes.

11 Mechanocatalytic Conversion of Cellulose Solid acid can be used to depolymerize cellulose in a ball mill. Grinding provides intimate contact between reactant and catalytically active sites. Water-soluble compounds are obtained as main products. Dealuminated kaolinite is an efficient catalyst. S.M. ick, C. Griebel, D.T. Restrepo, J.. Truitt, E.J. Buker, C. Bylda, R.G. Blair, Green Chem. 12 (2010) 468. Blair, R. G.; ick, S. M.; Truitt, J.., US patent 8,062,428 (2011).

12 Mechanocatalytic Conversion of Cellulose ESI-MS spectrum of water-soluble products from cellulose Very high yields of water-soluble products can be obtained when cellulose is impregnated with mineral acid before ball milling. ligosaccharides are the main products. Formation of branched oligosaccharides indicates re-polymerization. Monosaccharides can be obtained by hydrolysis under mild conditions. N. Meine, R. Rinaldi, and F. Schüth, ChemSusChem 5 (2012) J. ilgert, N. Meine, R. Rinaldi, and F. Schüth, Energy Environ. Sci. 6 (2013)

13 Lignin Structure J. Zakzeski, P.C.A. Bruijnincx, A.L. Jongerius, B.M. Weckhuysen, Chem. Rev. 110 (2010) 3552.

14 Conversion of Lignin Lignin can be cracked over solid acid catalysts at 350 to 400 C. Initial conversion of non-volatiles to volatiles. Volatiles can be further converted to light gases and chars. Moderate yields of valuable aromatics. Strong bases catalyze hydrolysis of ether linkages. Significant amounts of basic waste are formed. Few processes for the conversion of lignin are economically viable. J. Zakzeski, P.C.A. Bruijnincx, A.L. Jongerius, B.M. Weckhuysen, Chem. Rev. 110 (2010) 3552.

15 Possible Products from Lignin Propyl benzene has an octane rating of and could be used to improve the quality of gasoline. Benzene, toluene, xylene (BTX) are used in many processes in the chemical industry. For example terephthalic acid is produced from p-xylene.

16 Mechanocatalytic Conversion of Lignin Base assisted ball milling facilitates cleavage of β--4 linkages in lignin. Depolymerization of carbohydrates is observed in parallel. Currently the amounts of base (Na) required are too large for an attractive process. T. Kleine, J. Buendia, C. Bolm, Green Chem. 15 (2013) 160.

17 Clay Based Catalysts Natural clays are generally cheap. Certain natural clays are solid acids and bases. Thermal treatments can enhance acid-base properties. Ion exchange of clays can add Lewis acid and base sites. Addition of reduced metal particles (e.g. Ni, Cu) can facilitate reaction involving hydrogen.

18 Adsorption of Probe Molecules bjectives: Quantification of the concentration of acid and base sites on solids Characterization of strength of sites Absorbance / a.u Approaches: Adsorption of probe molecules (e.g. pyridine, C 2 ) on solid acid and bases just before the ball mill is turned of Analysis by IR spectroscopy Analysis of desorption temperatures to obtain a strength distribution Wavenumber / cm -1 Lewis acid sites IR band at 1450 cm -1 IR band at 1540 cm -1 Brønsted acid sites J.R. Copeland, I.A. Santillan, S.M. Schimming, J.L. Ewbank, C. Sievers, J. Phys. Chem. C 117 (2013) M.W. ahn, J.R. Copeland, A.. Van Pelt, C. Sievers, ChemSusChem 6 (2013) Y. Kuwahara, D.-Y. Kang, J.R. Copeland, N.A. Brunelli, S.A. Didas, P. Bollini, C. Sievers, T. Kamegawa,. Yamashita, C.W. Jones, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 134 (2012)

19 Mechanocatalytic ydrotreating Metal sites can dissociate molecular hydrogen to atomic hydrogen. Atomic hydrogen can spillover to other sites. W.C. Conner, J.L. Falconer, Chem. Rev. 95 (1995) 759.

20 Mechanocatalytic ydrotreating Atomic hydrogen can quench dangling bonds and prevent radical reactions like graphitization. + 2 Removal of oxygen containing functional groups is facilitated when bonds angles are distorted. Shear force

21 Continuous Removal of Products 2 feed Lignin feed 2 recycle Ball mill Condenser Liquid products Small and deoxygenated lignin fragments are volatile and can be removed as vapors. ydrogen can be separated from the products using a condenser or membrane.
