This study investigates the stability and activity of HZSM-5 doped with metals such as molybdenum, nickel, copper, and iron under hydrothermal conditions used for the direct liquefaction of microalgae. Catalysts have been prepared by ion-exchange techniques, and MoZSM-5 was also prepared by wet incipient impregnation for comparison. Hydrothermal liquefaction is considered a potential route to c...

Three kinds of HZSM-5 nanoparticles with different acidity were tailored by impregnating MgO or varying Si/Al ratios. Both the textural and acidic properties of the as-prepared nanoparticles were characterized by nitrogen adsorption-desorption measurements, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), ammonia temperature-programmed desorption (NH3-TPD) and Fourier transform infr...

The catalytic degradation of chlorinated volatile organic compounds (CVOCs) at low temperatures is a great challenge. In this work, Pt-Co/HZSM-5 ternary catalysts were synthesized and used for the oxidation dichloromethane (DCM). By adding only trace amounts Pt (0.01 wt. %), catalyst exhibits better CO2 yield lower by-product than Co/HZSM-5 catalyst. Besides, it maintained stable activity least...

The ammoxidation of ethane over the conventional metal oxide and Co/zeolite catalysts faces challenge inadequate selectivity owing to formation CO2, N2, NOx. Here we report that Sn modified ZSM-5 catalyst is highly selective for ammoxidation. C- N-based acetonitrile selectivities are up 80 % 70 Sn/HZSM-5, but they below 60 20 %, Co/HZSM-5. We suggested (IV) cations critical active sites formati...

The alkylation of benzene by propane to yield isopropylbenzene (iPrPh) was studied using bifunctional Pd-acid catalysts, such as Pd-heteropoly acid and Pd-zeolite, in a fixed bed reactor at 300 ◦C and 1 bar pressure. Keggin-type tungstosilicic acid H4SiW12O40 (HSiW) and zeolite HZSM-5 were used as the acid components in these catalysts. The reaction occurred most efficiently over 2%Pd/25%HSiW/S...

The promotional effect of Zn was investigated relative to the calcining activation HZSM-5. It found that lignin separated from walnut shell could be liquefied into small molecular ethers such as anisole by modified catalyst. Experimental results showed that, after loading Zn, HZSM-5 catalyst retained its original crystal structure, which exhibited good metal dispersion. Besides, due existence ...

This study investigated on the co-pyrolysis of microalgae Chlorella vulgaris and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) waste mixtures which was performed with three types catalysts, namely limestone (LS), HZSM-5 zeolite, novel bi-functional LS/HZSM-5/LS. Kissinger-Kai (K-K) model-free method coupled Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) model-fitting using thermogravimetric experimental data. A global s...

The formation of carbonaceous deposits (coke) in zeolite pores during catalysis leads to temporary deactivation of catalyst, necessitating regeneration steps, affecting throughput, and resulting in partial permanent loss of catalytic efficiency. Yet, even to date, the coke molecule distribution is quite challenging to study with high spatial resolution from surface to bulk of the catalyst parti...
