Dehydroaromatization of methane (MDA) under non-oxidative conditions is a promising reaction for direct valorization natural gas and biogas. Typically, Fe-modified ZSM-5 catalysts display low aromatic productivity high coke selectivity in the MDA reaction. Herein, we show benefit starting from isomorphously substituted Fe-sites [Fe,Al]ZSM-5 zeolites prepared by hydrothermal synthesis. Upon calc...

Perfluoroalkylglucosides comprise a very important class of fluorine-containing surfactants. These compounds can be synthesized by using the Fisher reaction, starting directly from glucose and the required perfluoroalcohols. We wish to report on the use of zeolite catalysts of different structure and composition for the synthesis of perfluoroalkylglucosides when using glucose and 1-octafluorope...

The production of aromatic hydrocarbons from cellulose by zeolite-catalyzed fast pyrolysis involves a complex reaction network sensitive to the zeolite structure, crystallinity, elemental composition, porosity, and acidity. The interplay of these parameters under the reaction conditions represents a major roadblock that has hampered significant improvement in catalyst design for over a decade. ...

Nano-sized protonated ZSM–5 ( H-ZSM-5nanozeolite) was successfully synthesized by the hydrothermal method using the bagasse ash (BGA) as a new silica source. Cultivated BGA in the south of the Caspian Sea (Mazandaran province, Iran) was used for extracting silica powder. H-ZSM-5 was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electronic microscopy (SEM...

The desorption of methanol and dimethyl ether has been studied over fresh and hydrocarbon-occluded ZSM-5 catalysts with Si/Al ratios of 25, 36 and 135 using a temporal analysis of products reactor. The catalysts were characterized by XRD, SEM, N2 physisorption and pyridine FT-IR. The crystal size increases with Si/Al ratio from 0.10 to 0.78 μm. The kinetic parameters were obtained using the Red...

The abundant C1 source CO2 can be utilized to produce value-added chemicals through hydrogenation technology. A bifunctional catalyst consisting of reducible metal oxide Cr2O3 and acidic zeolite ZSM-5 was designed for the direct conversion + H2 into valuable aromatics, especially para-xylene (PX), via methanol-mediated pathway. twin structure (ZSM-5T), with sinusoidal channels that are predomin...

The catalytic conversion of glycerol to aromatics (GTA, e.g ., benzene, toluene, and xylenes, BTX) over a shaped H-ZSM-5/Al 2 O 3 (60/40 wt%) catalyst was investigated in continuous fixed-bed reactor study the addition Al binder formulation on performance. experiments were performed under N at 550 °C, WHSV (pure) 1 h ?1 , atmospheric pressure. spent catalysts reused after an oxidative regenerat...

vanadium silicates such as v-al-analcime, v-analcime, v-magediite and v-zsm-11 were synthesized using vanadium pentoxide or vanadyl sulfates. vanadium silicates with analcime structure with and without aluminum (v-al-analcime, v-analcime) were prepared as pure phase by hydrothermal crystallization from a gel with molar composition of (1 sio2; 0.2 v2o5; 1 na2o; 0.034 al2o3; 35.7 h2o) and (1 sio2...

a novel modified ni-zsm-5 nanozeolite was fabricated via an organic template-free hydrothermal route. the average particle size of ni-zsm-5 nanozeolite was calculated to be 85 nm by scanning electronic microscopy. then, carbon paste electrode (cpe) was modified by ni-zsm-5 nanozeolite and ni2+ ions were then incorporated to the nanozeolite matrix. electrochemical behavior of this electrode was ...
