This work shows how propane was catalytically converted to aromatic compounds over Zn-Ni/HZSM-5 investigate the synergistic role of nickel as a zinc stabilizer and promoter in aromatization. Co-impregnation method employed for Zn-Ni/ZSM-5 synthesis fixed 2 wt% 1, 3 nickel. Modified catalysts’ were fully characterized. Catalysts crystallinity, structure microporosity retained from analysis resul...

We have reported previously the excellent performance of Fe-exchanged ZSM-5 for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with ammonia at high temperatures (300–400 C). In this work, we found that the reaction temperature could be decreased to 200– 300 C when a small amount of noble metal (Pt, Rh, or Pd) was added to the Fe-ZSM-5. The SCR activity follows the order Pt/FeZSM-5 > Rh/Fe-ZSM-5 > Pd...

The selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO by methane in the presence of excess oxygen has been studied on a series of Pd catalysts supported on sulfated zirconia (SZ). This support is not as sensitive to structural damage by steaming as the acidic zeolites, such as H-ZSM-5 and H-Mor. In previous studies, it was shown that this type of acidic zeolites are able to stabilize Pd2+ ions and prom...

Mo2O5 2+-ZSM-5 (Mo/Alf = 0.4, Si/Alf = 20) samples prepared by sublimation of MoO3 were carburized in CH4 to form MoCx clusters active in CH4 pyrolysis and then exposed to different CO2/CH4 mixtures. CO2/CH4 reactant ratios between 0 and 0.1 increased catalyst stability but decreased pyrolysis rates, and ratios above 0.1 led to a sudden loss of activity that was reversed after removal of CO2. B...

The conversion of different biogenic feedstocks to hydrocarbons is a major challenge when ensuring hydrocarbon and fuel supply in spite the heterogeneity this feed. Flexible adaptation changing compositions mandatory for respective processes. In study, oxygenate model feeds, such as alcohols, aldehydes, carboxylic acids esters, were converted at 500 °C 5 barg H2 using H-ZSM-5 zeolite catalysts ...

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 absorption of carbon monoxide with H-ZSM-5 and metal-substituted Li-ZSM-5 zeolites has been investigated by Ž . using both cluster and embedded cluster approaches at the HFr6–31G d,p level of theory. For the H-ZSM-5 zeolite, the binding energy of CO on a 3T quantum cluster is predicted to be 2.25 kcalrmol for the C-bound complex. The O-bound complex was found to be less stable by about 0.84...

Methane, the main component of natural gas, is an interesting source chemicals and clean liquid fuels, a promising alternative raw material to oil. Among possible direct routes for methane conversion, its aromatization under non-oxidative conditions has received increasing attention, despite low conversions obtained due thermodynamic limitations, because high selectivity benzene. Mo/H-ZSM-5, fi...
