Abstract: | In this study, were studied the degradation of pure sunflower oil and mixed with H-Beta zeolite. This zeolite was synthesized
by the hydrothermal method, followed by calcination and ion exchanged. The characterization of the zeolite was performed by
X-ray diffraction and nitrogen adsorption/desorption by the method of BET. The analysis showed that H-Beta zeolite presented
a good crystallinity and the template was completely removed from the catalyst. The thermal and catalytic degradation study
was carried out using the TG/DTG method in multiple heating rates of 5, 10, and 20 °C min−1. The isoconversion method proposed by Vyazovkin was applied to determine the kinetic parameters for degradation of the sunflower
oil. The activation energy for the degradation process of pure sunflower oil was 193 kJ mol−1, while for sunflower oil mixed with 20% of H-Beta zeolite was equivalent to 88 kJ mol−1. It was verified that for the degradation of 90% of the sunflower oil mixed with H-Beta, for a period of 1 h, a temperature
of 356 °C was required, whereas for the pure vegetable oil, this value was of 387 °C, at the same time period, showing that
the catalyst was effective for the degradation process of sunflower oil. |
