Reaction kinetic constants for the complete hydrogenation of isoprene
Thread Content
Most of the literature focuses on catalyst research for the selective hydrogenation of isoprene, and does not mention the reaction kinetic constants. Moreover, complete hydrogenation does not possess great process value, and there is little research on it
Since you have recognized the existence of this problem, you can certainly conduct in-depth research on it, and provide future researchers with models and data references related to the kinetics of complete hydrogenation reactions. It is truly wonderful that you have done this work. Why don’t you consider that isopentane, which is produced by the complete hydrogenation of isoprene, has no other use other than as a component in gasoline? Selective hydrogenation yields isopentene, which can serve as a raw material component for polyolefins and can also be used conveniently as a precursor for isopentane derivatives; in other words, it can be utilized as various chemical raw materials. These are all chemicals with high added value, possessing a much higher value than when used as components in gasoline. That’s why it’s best for you to carry out this kind of research.
