Description

It was foudd that palladium (II) chloride is a highly active catalyst for the synthesis of alkali formate from carbon dioxide and hydrogen in an aqueous alkali solution under pressure. For example, potassium formate, in 82.6 mol% yield, was obtained under the following condition: pressure of carbon dioxide being 40 atm, pressure of hydrogen being 106 atm, concentration of palladium(II) chloride being 1.0 g/l, concentration of potassim hydroxide in aqueous solution being 1.9 mol/l, temperature being 240deg;C, and period of reaction being 3 hrs.<BR>The effect of following variables on the rate of formation of formate was examined in view of kinetics: starting amount of catalyst, alkali concentration, partial pressure of carbon dioxide or hydrogen, and temperature. Assuming that the reaction substances involved hydrogencarbonate ion and active catalyst-hydrogen complexes, following initial rate equation has been derived:: Solubility constant of 112, Pressure of H2, M: Palladium-catalyst, V0: Initial rate. This equation reasonably agreed with experimental results.<BR>The values of the apparent rate constant k', the equilibrium constant Ks, and the overall activation energy Ea, were found to be 2.90×10-2(160deg;C) 4.97×10-2 la g-cat-2min-1(200°C), 28.4 (160°C) 13.2 ismol-i (200°C), and 7 kcal. mol-1 respectively.
