An elementary reaction during cracking of a hydrocarbon in a nanoporous silicalite catalyst includes ejection of a hydrid ion as shown in the picture. The reaction was simulated by means of quantum molecular dynamics.

Abstract This study investigates the production of diesel fuels by integrated Fischer–Tropsch synthesis over a bifunctional cobalt catalyst consisting component (Co–Al 2 O 3 /SiO ) and zeolite-containing (ZSM-5). The catalytic properties were tested in continuous-flow reactor with stationary bed at 240–250°C, MPa, gas WHSV 1000 h –1 . effects SiO /Al ratio HZSM-5 zeolite on performance, deactiv...
