Neutron scattering methods observed complete room temperature conversion of methanol to framework methoxy in a commercial sample of methanol-to-hydrocarbons (MTH) catalyst H-ZSM-5, evidenced by methanol immobility and vibrational spectra matched by ab initio calculations. No methoxylation was observed in a commercial HY sample, attributed to the dealumination involved in high silica HY synthesis.

This study developed an upgrading process focusing on acid transformations of water phase pyrolysis bio-oils to esters of oxygen-containing fuels via ZSM−5 catalyst. Temperature was set as a factor with five levels ranging from 60 to 135 °C with reaction time from 1 to 8 h. The results showed that 89% of high acid conversion and over 90% of ester selectivity was obtained from the feedstock via ...

Due to crude oil is limited, new resources for fuel and petrochemicals are important to be developed. Biogas or NG (Natural Gas) can be easily converted into methanol which can be reacted over zeolite to produce olefins and gasoline. HZSM-5 zeolite catalyst has been used in this study and its modification by (0.5wt%, 1wt%, 2wt% and 4wt %) Ni to convert methanol to hydrocarbons (MTH). Catalysts ...

The interactions of water with H-ZSM-5, Cu-ZSM-5, and Co-ZSM-5 have been investigated by density functional theory (DFT). Calculations were also performed to determine the thermodynamics of metal removal from the zeolite. For all three forms of ZSM-5, water adsorbs by direct interaction of the O atom with the cation and hydrogen bonding of one of the two H atoms with an oxygen atom in the zeoli...

To improve the yield of propylene in fluidized catalytic cracking, a series different Au/ZSM-5-TOS catalysts were prepared by modifying ZSM-5, using an external surface modification method and Au nanoparticles. The modified catalyst maintained MFI structure whereas pore-opening size zeolite relatively decreased, without affecting its internal structure. acidity especially Brønsted acidity, redu...

The effect of Ga, V, and Zr content on the structural properties catalytic behavior H-ZSM-5 monolithic catalysts-supported gallium oxide, vanadium zirconium oxide in oxidative dehydrogenation propane (ODHP) have been investigated a continuous tubular microreactor using CO2 as mild oxidant. SEM-EDX confirmed homogeneous distribution metal oxides within printed oxide/H-ZSM-5 catalysts ODHP reacti...

The shape selective catalysis based on ZSM-5 zeolite has found widespread application (1,2) in refining and petrochemical industry since long time. The product distribution associated with hydrocracking and hydroisomerization processes on ZSM-5 are predominantly controlled by the pore geometry and component diffusion. The various aspects of diffusion inside ZSM-5 pore structure have been widely...

lamno3 and lamno3/zsm-5 nano catalysts were synthesized by pechini method and their physical-chemical properties were characterized using xrd, ftir, sem-edx, uv-vis drs, bet surface area and tpr. the correlation between characteristic properties and activity of catalysts were investigated. the catalytic performance of the catalysts was evaluated in combustion of 2-propanol and compared with 1% ...

The catalytic fast pyrolysis (CFP) of bio-derived furans offers a promising approach for sustainable aromatic production. ZSM-5 modified by different metal species (Zn, Mo, Fe, and Ga) was employed in the CFP enhancing effects species, loadings, weight hourly space velocity (WHSV) on product distributions from 2-methylfuran (MF) were systemically investigated. It is found that introduction Zn, ...
