LID - 10.3390/ijms24032689 [doi] LID - 2689 AB - This paper presents the results of tests obtained for the transformation of geraniol in the presence of garnet as a catalyst by the response surface method (RSM). The method analyzed the influence of the following parameters: a temperature of 50-150 degrees C, a catalyst concentration (garnet) of 1.0-10.0 wt% and a reaction time of 0.25-24 h. Response functions included the conversion of geraniol (GA), selectivity for conversion to neral (NE) and selectivity for conversion to citronellol (CL). In addition, the influence of all control parameters on each of the response parameters is presented in the form of second-order polynomials. The optimal parameters of the geraniol transformation process were a temperature of 55 degrees C, a catalyst concentration of 5 wt% and a reaction time of 2 h, for which high values of the GA conversion function and the selectivity of conversion to NE and CL were obtained. For the GA conversion, the optimum was obtained at 94 mol% at 60 degrees C, a catalyst concentration of 5.0 wt% and a reaction time of 2 h. For NE selectivity, the optimum value was reached at 49 mol% at 60 degrees C, a catalyst concentration equal to 2.5 (5.0) wt% mole and a reaction time of almost 2 h. For CL selectivity, the optimum value of 49 mol% was obtained for control factors: a temperature equal to 20 degrees C, a catalyst concentration equal to 5.0 wt% and a response time equal to 2 h. The optimal set of control factors for all power factors is characterized by a temperature of 55 degrees C, a catalyst concentration of 5 wt% and a reaction time of 2 h.
