Dynamic and Steady State Evolution of Active Sites in H-ZSM5
Catalytic cracking of hexane over steamed ZSM-5 is studied under steady state and dynamic conditions to elucidate the role of the active sites on the product distribution. The product distribution from the riser simulator representing the dynamic state of the catalyst cannot be resembled from monocracking or bimolecular reactions by Bronsted acid sites alone. The catalyst promotes the hydride transfer function which controls the hexane conversion at 460–500 °C that flips into methanation function at 550 °C with a propene to ethene ratio of 1.04. In addition, hydrogen induction is observed in the first two pulses. Steady state data obtained from a fixed bed reactor, on the other side, shows that the product distribution is controlled by monomolecular cracking with low yield of methane and high propene to ethene ratio ranging from 4.3 to 3.3 depending on the temperature and conversion. We are not able to explain these data by considering the Bronsted acid sites alone and suggest that Lewis acid sites with short-lived activity are not inactive in the carbon-carbon activation before fading by coke deactivation. The reported findings are of importance to academia and industry and are very relevant to fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) processes
Composite zeolite catalysts for heavy reformate conversion into xylenes
A method of forming composite zeolite catalyst particles includes combining a silicon source, an aqueous organic structure directing agent having a polyquaternary ammonium compound, water and an aluminum source to form a catalyst gel. The method also includes heating the catalyst gel to form the composite zeolite catalyst particle having an intergrowth region with a mixture of both Mordenite crystals and ZSM-5 crystals. An associated method of making xylene includes feeding heavy reformate to a reactor, the reactor containing the composite zeolite catalyst particles, and producing xylene by simultaneously performing dealkylation and transalkylation of the heavy reformate in the reactor, where each composite zeolite catalyst particle is able to catalyze both the dealkylation and transalkylation reactionsPeer reviewedSaudi Arabian Oil Company, Consejo Superior de Investigaciones CientÃficas (España), Universitat Politecnica de ValenciaA1 Solicitud de patente con informe sobre el estado de la técnic
