Abstract
Carane, C10H18, a new and unique saturated bicyclic hydrocarbon, can be produced by the continuous, three-phase, catalytic hydrogenenation of delta-3-carene in a trickle bed reactor. Among the various catalysts investigated, Harshaw 1404-T nickel catalyst was found to give the best results in a fixed bed flow tube reactor. The reaction conditions for maximum carane production in this study were found. Several methods of feed pretreatment to remove impurities which act as catalyst poisons were evaluated.
