Abstract:

Hydroxyapatite (HAP) has been one of the most researched ceramic materials for application in bone implants and as a catalyst system. In this context, HAP has been used as a material system for ethanol conversion, like for n-butanol and for Butadiene. In this context, the present work aims to carry out a conversion reaction using the HAP obtained from hen skin with sucrose as a porogenic agent and ethanol as the catalytic system. The conversion reactions will take place at a temperature of 300 °C at rest and it will be conducted in a 30 mL steel alloy autoclave. The autoclave will be sealed and placed in a preheated oven at 240 °C, with different reaction times, weight and temperature, as experimental variables. The reaction products will be evaluated by chromatography, BET, SEM and XRD techniques and it is expected that its behavior would reach a high reaction yield.
