One deactivation run was completed during the last quarter using a catalyst prepared from a Harshaw/Filtrol titania support (JK02). This catalyst had a much lower surface area than the benchmark commercial catalyst (Amocat 1A) and consequent lower hydrogenation activity. The JK02 catalysts maintained its activity very well however and deactivation paralleled that of the benchmark catalyst. Silica-magnesia and nitrided activated carbon were tested as catalyst supports in batch reactor initial activity studies. Silica-magnesia did not perform well but a nitrided activated carbon supported catalyst has been selected for activity maintenance testing in the next quarter. 10 refs., 5 figs., 11 tabs.
