ZSM-5 (SiO_2/Al_2O_3=30) was loaded with different metals (Cr, Cu and Ga)according to the acidic ion-exchange method to produce metal-loaded ZSM-5 zeolite catalysts. XRD,NMR, FT-IR and N_2 adsorption analyses indicated that Cr and Ga species managed to occupy thealuminum positions in the ZSM-5 framework. In addition, Cr species were deposited in the pores ofthe structure. However, Cu oxides were deposited on the surface and in the mesopores of the ZSM-5zeolite. An acidity study using TPD-NH_3, FT-IR, and IR-pyridine analyses revealed that the totalnumber of acid sites and the strengths of the Broensted and Lewis acid sites were significantlydifferent after the acidic ion exchange treatment. Cu loaded HZSM-5 is a potential catalyst fordirect conversion of methane to liquid hydrocarbons. The successful production of gasoline via thedirect conversion of methane depends on the amount of aluminum in the zeolite framework and thestrength of the Broensted acid sites.展开更多

The results show that the acid site density, acid intensity and hydrothermal stability of ZSM-5 zeolite were improved by phosphorus modification. When P2O5 content in ZSM-5 zeolite is higher than 2.5%, phosphorus modification can prevent ZSM-5 zeolite crystal structure transformation from orthorhombic to monoclinic. In addition, the dealumination of ZSM-5 zeolite framework was moderated by phosphorus modification under high temperature hydrothermal treatment. The results of n-octane pyrolysis on phosphorus-modified ZSM-5 zeolites show that ethylene yields of zeolites with different phosphorus content are almost the same under the same n-octane conversion. However, the modified zeolites with higher pyrolysis activity give lower yield of propene, butene and total olefin than lower pyrolysis activity under the same n-octane conversion.展开更多

The catalysts were used to enhance the catalytic dehydration of lactic acid (LA) to acrylic acid (AA). The effects of cationic species on the structures and surface acid-base distributions of the ZSM-5 zeolites were investigated. The important factors that affect the catalytic performance were also identified. The modified ZSM-5 catalysts were characterized using X-ray diffraction, tempera- ture-programmed desorptions of NH3 and CO2, pyridine adsorption spectroscopy, and N2 adsorption to determine the crystal phase structures, surface acidities and basicities, nature of acid sites, specific surface areas, and pore volumes. The results show that the acid-base sites that are adjusted by alkali-metal species, particularly weak acid-base sites, are mainly responsible for the formation of AA. The KZSM-5 catalyst, in particular, significantly improved LA conversion and AA selectivity because of the synergistic effect of weak acid-base sites. The reaction was conducted at different reaction temperatures and liquid hourly space velocities (LHSVs) to understand the catalyst selectivity for AA and trends in byproduct formation. Approximately 98% LA conversion and 77% AA selectivity were achieved using the KZSM-5 catalyst under the optimum conditions (40 wt% LA aqueous solution, 365 ℃, and LHSV 2 h-1).展开更多

The catalysts were characterized by XRD, BET, NH_3-TPD and Py-IR to reveal the microstructure and acid property. The catalysis performances of methanol aromatization of catalysts were investigated in a fixed-bed reactor. The results show that the strength and distribution of acid center of these catalysts are significantly influenced by the species of transition metal. There are more mediate strong Lewis acid center in Zn modified HZSM-5 catalyst and therefore exhibits higher selectivity to aromatic, benzene, toluene and xylenes in the MTA reaction..展开更多
