The preparation of Fe<Superscript>3+</Superscript> ion-exchanged mesopore containing ZSM-5 molecular sieves and its high catalytic activity in the hydroxylation of phenol

A series of Fe³⁺ containing catalysts were synthesized using ion-exchange technique over hierarchically porous ZSM-5 (M-ZSM-5) and micro-mesoporous composite ZSM-5/MCM-41 (ZSM-5/MCM-41), respectively. The prepared catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, N₂ adsorption–desorption, UV–Vis spectroscopy, temperature programmed reduction and inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy. The characterization results exhibit that the hierarchically porous ZSM-5 was synthesized with intracrystalline mesopores, while the micro-mesoporous composite ZSM-5/MCM-41 was prepared with the well-ordered mesopores. Furthermore, the results also prove that the existence of iron in the catalysts was mainly presented in the form of Fe³⁺ ions. Catalytic performances of the samples for phenol hydroxylation were compared by using H₂O₂ as oxidant. Under the optimized conditions, Fe³⁺ ion-exchanged M-ZSM-5 (Fe-M-ZSM-5) shows that a phenol conversion of 42.3% obtained with 92.5% selectivity to dihydroxybenzenes, whereas Fe³⁺ ion-exchanged ZSM-5/MCM-41 (Fe-ZSM-5/MCM-41) give 46.2% phenol conversion and 90.1% dihydroxybenzenes selectivity, which are all better than most reported results. The recyclability tests show that Fe-ZSM-5/MCM-41 with ordered mesoporous structure and bigger surface area has better anti-deactivation performance than Fe-M-ZSM-5. The excellent catalytic performances were due to the improved diffusion performance with newly created mesopores and the highly active Fe³⁺ species obtained by ion-exchange technique.

Co-conversion of methanol and n-hexane into aromatics using intergrown ZSM-5/ZSM-11 as a catalyst

The conversion of n-hexane and methanol into value-added aromatic compounds is a promising method for their industrially relevant utilization. In this study, intergrown ZSM-5/ZSM-11 crystals were synthesized and their resulting catalytic performance was investigated and compared to those of the isolated ZSM-5 and ZSM-11 zeolites. The physicochemical properties of ZSM-5/ZSM-11 intergrown zeolite were analyzed using X-ray diffraction, N₂ isothermal adsorption-desorption, the temperature-programmed desorption of ammonium, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectra of adsorbed pyridine, and nuclear magnetic resonance of ²⁷Al , and compared with those of the ZSM-5 and ZSM-11 zeolites. The catalytic performances of the materials were evaluated during the co-feeding reaction of methanol and n-hexane under the fixed bed conditions of 400°C, 0.5 MPa (N₂), methanol:꞉n-hexane=7꞉:3 (mass ratio), and weight hourly space velocity=1 h^–1 (methanol). Compared to the ZSM-5 and ZSM-11 zeolites, the ZSM-5/ZSM-11 zeolite exhibited the largest specific surface area, a unique crystal structure, moderate acidity, and suitable Brønsted/Lewis acid ratio. The evaluation results showed that ZSM-5/ZSM-11 catalyst exhibited better catalytic reactivity than the ZSM-5 and ZSM-11 catalysts in terms of methanol conversion rate, n-hexane conversion rate, and aromatic selectivity. The outstanding catalytic property of the intergrown ZSM-5/ZSM-11 was attributed to the enhanced diffusion associated with its unique crystal structure. The benefit of using zeolite intergrowth in the co-conversion of methanol and alkanes offers a novel route for future catalyst development.     

甲醇制烯烃反应工艺、反应机理及其动力学研究进展

甲醇制烯烃工艺近年来已成为煤化工领域的研究热点。不同的甲醇制烯烃催化剂将导致不同的反应过程,以SAPO-34为催化剂时,甲醇主要遵循烃池机理,通过快速的平行反应直接生产乙烯和丙烯(MTO)等低碳烯烃;以ZSM-5为催化剂时,甲醇主要遵循双循环机理中的烯烃循环机理,通过甲基化-裂解等多步反应间接生产丙烯(MTP)。这种反应特征的不同也决定着反应器类型和工艺条件的不同:SAPO-34催化剂易失活的特性决定了工业MTO过程通常采用易再生的流化床反应器从甲醇一步生成乙烯和丙烯,而具有良好抗结焦能力的ZSM-5催化剂使得工业MTP过程通常选择易放大的固定床反应器,通过大量烯烃循环与分离逐步获得丙烯。针对SAPO-34催化剂上MTO过程以及ZSM-5催化剂上MTP过程的不同反应情况,综述了近年来甲醇制烯烃代表性的反应工艺、反应机理以及反应动力学等方面的研究进展,并根据其存在的问题提出了相应的发展方向。     

Methanol-to-Olefins Reaction over Large-Pore Zeolites: Impact of Pore Structure on Catalytic Performance

In the methanol-to-olefins (MTO) reaction, product flexibility is important for meeting the fluctuating chemicals demands. In this paper, the catalytic performance of recently reported zeolites having 12-ring pores, such as boroaluminosilicate CON-type zeolite ([Al,B]-CON), MCM-68, and YNU-5 zeolites, in the MTO reaction was compared to understand the relationship between zeolite framework and product selectivity. The catalytic performance of the synthesized zeolites was compared with that of Beta, mordenite, and ZSM-5. The highest selectivities for propylene and butylenes were achieved over MCM-68. The highest propylene-to-ethylene ratio in the products was obtained over [Al,B]-CON. ZSM-5 and [Al,B]-CON exhibited a superior ability to suppress coke formation compared to Beta, mordenite, MCM-68, and YNU-5.     

In situ synthesis, characterization and catalytic activity of ZSM-5 zeolites on kaolin microspheres from amine-free system

ZSM-5 zeolites were synthesized by an in situ hydrothermal crystallization method on kaolin microspheres from an organic template-free solution. The as-synthesized samples were characterized by using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared spectrometry, N₂ adsorption and desorption, and Temperature Programmed Desorption. The results showed that small-sized ZSM-5 crystallites with less than 1 micron in diameter were effectively formed on kaolin microspheres. The synthesized products indicated high hydrothermal stability and strong acidity. By mixing the H-type ZSM-5/CMK composite with a Fluid Catalytic Cracking base catalyst, the performance of the catalyst is then evaluated. The results of catalytic performance evaluation showed that with the addition of ZSM-5/CKM, it favored the production of light olefins such as propylene and butylenes by catalytic cracking of vacuum gas oil.     

Rapid preparation of hierarchically porous ceramic microspheres based on UV-curing-assisted molding

Ceramic microspheres have attracted significant attention, while the preparation of hierarchically porous ceramic microspheres with high porosity, good sphericity, and controllable size or shape in a short time remains a challenge. Herein, we developed a highly adaptable methodology for the preparation hierarchically porous ceramic microspheres with high porosity and favorable shape in a short time. The UV-curing assisted molding method combined with the Pickering emulsion method was utilized to prepare hierarchically porous ceramic microspheres. Under the irradiation of a UV-curing lamp (395 nm, 50 W), the Pickering emulsion can be cured within as short as 10 s. The microstructures of the three microspheres with different shapes were characterized by scanning electron microscopes (SEM). The as-prepared microspheres had a high sphericity, the interconnectivity of pores was as high as 54 %, and its porosity was as high as 73.4 % ± 3.0 %, while the density was quite low at ∼ 1.02 g/cm³.     

High efficient mesoporous HZSM-5 nanocatalyst development through desilication with mixed alkaline solution for methanol to olefin reaction

Methanol to olefin (MTO) process is a non-oil route for the light olefins production. We report the mesoporous and high siliceous HZSM-5 nanocatalyst development through the new desilication process including the mixed alkaline solution. The properties of nanocatalysts were characterized using TGA/DTA, XRD, ICP, FE-SEM, BET, FT-IR, and NH₃-TPD techniques. FE-SEM images represent the spherical morphology of parent nanocatalyst including smooth surface. The XRD analysis confirms that applied desilication does not change the typical MFI-type structure of ZSM-5 nanocatalysts. The BET and NH₃-TPD results show that mixed alkaline solution including 40 wt% TPAOH results in the best adjustment of textural (299.7 m²/g) and acidity (strong/weak ratio of 0.21) properties, respectively. The PHZ-NaTP0.4 nanocatalyst represents the highest methanol conversion (99.2%), propylene selectivity (48.3%), C₃ ⁼/C₂ ⁼ molar ratio (7.4) as well as lowest selectivity to C₁–C₄ alkanes (4.6%) for long time on stream (170 h). The low selectivity of light alkanes (C₁–C₄) and high total light olefins (ca. 75%) confirm the stable performance of nanocatalyst. Consequently, the developed PHZ-NaTP0.4 nanocatalyst is a high efficient MTO catalyst and can be candidate for commercial scale up.

Isomerization of α-pinene oxide in the presence of methyltrioxorhenium(VII)

The catalytic performance of methyltrioxorhenium(VII) (MTO) has been investigated for the first time in the isomerization of α-pinene oxide (PinOx) into campholenic aldehyde (CPA). The high isomerization activity of MTO is coupled with high selectivity to CPA: CPA yield of up to 87% (100% conversion) was obtained by using α,α,α-trifluorotoluene as solvent at 15 °C. Catalyst recycling is possible in a relatively simple fashion by using MTO coupled to an appropriate ionic liquid. The catalytic application of MTO in the isomerization of PinOx versus the integrated epoxidation–isomerization process of the conversion of α-pinene into CPA is discussed.     

高岭土微球原位合成SAPO-34分子筛及其在流化床甲醇/二甲醚制烯烃过程中的应用(英文)

SAPO-34 zeolite is considered to be an effective catalyst for methanol or dimethyl ether conversion to olefins. In this study, we developed the in situ synthesis technology to prepare SAPO-34 zeolite in kaolin microspheres as a catalyst for fluidized methanol or dimethyl ether to olefins process. The silicoaluminophosphate zeolite was first time reported to be synthesized in kaolin microspheres. The SAPO-34 content of synthesized catalyst was about 22% as measured by three different quantitative methods (micropore area, X-ray fluorescence and energy dispersive spectroscopy element analysis). Most of the SAPO-34 zeolites were in nanoscale size and distributed uniformly inside the spheres. The catalytic performance was evaluated in fixed bed and fluidized bed reactors. Compared with the conventional spray-dry catalyst, SAPO/kaolin catalyst showed superior catalytic activities, better olefin selectivities (up to 94%, exclusive coke), and very good hydrothermal stability. The in situ synthesis of SAPO-34 in kaolin microspheres is a facile and economically feasible way to prepare more effective catalyst for fluidized MTO/DTO (methanol to olefins/dimethyl ether to olefins) process.     

多级孔ZSM-5分子筛的制备及其催化甲醇芳构化反应性能

采用晶种法,在合成体系中引入十六烷基三甲基溴化铵（CTAB）制备了具有多级孔道的ZSM-5分子筛。采用XRD、SEM、NH₃-TPD、XRF和氮气吸附等多种技术对其进行了表征,并考察了不同CTAB添加量对该分子筛结构、酸性及其在甲醇芳构化反应中催化性能的影响。结果表明,CTAB的添加显著影响分子筛的形貌、孔结构及分子筛的酸性,进而决定其在甲醇制芳烃反应中的稳定性和芳构化选择性。分子筛增加的介孔性提高了大分子化合物的扩散,进而提高了催化剂寿命。CTAB的添加抑制了铝源进入骨架进行配位,增加CTAB的用量导致Si/Al比提高,进而导致分子筛酸性下降以及芳烃选择性下降。     

Facile synthesis and catalytic applications of micro-mesoporous molecular sieve ZK-1

A micro-mesoporous molecular sieve ZK-1 was synthesized at 170 °C by a facile one-step hydrothermal method. The structure of ZK-1 can be controlled by the crystallization time. ZK-1(I), the KIT-1 containing ZSM-5 building units in the pore walls, is formed during 2–6 h. ZK-1(II), A mixture of ZSM-5 and KIT-1, is formed after 8 h. The framework structure, porosity, morphology and acidity of the obtained materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Transmission electron microscopy, N₂ adsorption, X-ray fluorescence, NH₃-temperature programmed desorption and ²⁷Al Magic angle spinning NMR spectroscopy. The samples exhibit good steam stability and better catalytic performances in the isomerization of o-ethyltoluene than KIT-1, suggesting their promising applications in the conversion of large molecules.     

Hierarchical ZSM-5 zeolite designed by combining desilication and dealumination with related study of n-heptane cracking performance

The effect of the basic (NaOH) and/or acid (citric acid and EDTA-2Na) treatment of ZSM-5 zeolite has been studied comparing the structural and acidic features and their catalytic performance in n-heptane cracking. The properties of the catalysts have been elucidated using XRD, N₂ low-temperature sorption, ²⁷Al and ²⁹Si NMR, pyridine adsorbed FTIR, NH₃–TPD, SEM and TEM analysis. The results showed that the degree of desilication and dealumination of ZSM-5 zeolites was greatly dependent on the agents. NaOH obviously created new mesopores on parent ZSM-5 zeolites by desilication. Citric acid contributed to the removal of nonframework Al species, causing the increase of micropore surface area. EDTA-2Na promoted desilication and simultaneously converted part of removed framework Al species into nonframework Al species. The treatment of ZSM-5 combined with those three agents was very effective to obtain a hierarchical structure with partial breakdown of the crystallites and high acid amounts of both Brönsted and Lewis acid sites. Catalytic tests showed that the post-treated ZSM-5 catalysts had higher activity and stability than parent ZSM-5 catalyst at the same reaction temperature. The synergetic effect of Brönsted acid and Lewis acid of ZSM-5 catalyst (Z5-ACE) probably facilitated n-heptane conversion, while more clean micropore and newly created mesopores facilitated the slight increase of olefin selectivity and suppressing the formation of coke deposition in its inherent micropores to some extent.     

Yield of gasoline-range hydrocarbons as a function of uniform ZSM-5 crystal size

Uniform ZSM-5 nanocrystals were synthesized by a single-templating procedure. The samples were then characterized by a variety of physical techniques such as XRD, SEM, BET, ICP and TPD. The dehydration of methanol over synthesized ZSM-5 zeolite was studied in a fixed-bed continuous flow reactor at 370 °C and WHSV of 2.6 gg⁻¹ h under ambient pressure. The effect of crystal size of zeolite catalysts on product distribution in methanol dehydration reaction was investigated. Good correlation was observed between catalytic performance, product distribution and size of ZSM-5 crystals. It was found that the decrease in crystal size significantly influences light olefins (ethylene and propylene) and paraffins (C₁–C₄) selectivity in methanol dehydration reaction. Furthermore, nanocrystal ZSM-5 showed long-term catalytic stability compared with conventional ZSM-5 provided that the reaction activity is strongly dependent on the crystal size in methanol dehydration process. The results indicated that crystal size significantly affects the catalyst lifetime and hydrocarbon distributions in product stream. Based on the obtained results, it is concluded that the use of uniform ZSM-5 nanocrystals improves the yield of propylene and alkyl aromatics in methanol conversion reaction at mild conditions.     

ZSM-5@t-ZrO2制备及其对甲硫醇催化合成影响机制

采用水热包覆法和物理共混法分别制备了ZSM-5@t-ZrO₂和ZSM-5/t-ZrO₂复合催化剂,并以ZSM-5和t-ZrO₂为对比参考,研究了不同结构催化剂的物化性质和催化性能。在此基础上,借助漫反射傅里叶变换红外光谱,考察了反应温度和预硫化操作对ZSM-5@t-ZrO₂复合催化剂上甲醇和硫化氢反应分子吸附转化的影响。结果表明,水热包覆环境修饰了ZSM-5@t-ZrO₂复合催化剂的物化性质,提升了甲醇硫醇化反应的催化性能和抗积碳积硫失活能力。在反应压力1 MPa、反应温度380 ℃、预硫化1 h、N₂流量100 mL/min的条件下,甲醇转化率、甲硫醇选择性及甲硫醇收率分别达到92.02%、90.56%和82.76%。硫化氢分子在ZSM-5@t-ZrO₂催化剂的碱位上吸附解离为巯基,进而攻击甲氧基,这是甲硫醇合成反应的速率控制步骤。380 ℃的反应温度和预硫化操作有助于构建形成匹配的甲氧基和巯基生成速率,在提高催化性能的同时还可有效降低积碳积硫形成速率。     

The effect of hierarchical single-crystal ZSM-5 zeolites with different Si/Al ratios on its pore structure and catalytic performance

Hierarchical single-crystal ZSM-5 zeolites with different Si/Al ratios(Hier-ZSM-5-x,where x=50,100,150 and 200)were synthesized using an ordered mesoporous carbon-silica composite as hard template.Hier-ZSM-5-x exhibits improved mass transport properties,excellent mechanical and hydrothermal stability,and higher catalytic activity than commercial bulk zeolites in the benzyl alcohol self-etherification reaction.Results show that a decrease in the Si/Al ratio in hierarchical single-crystal ZSM-5 zeolites leads to a significant increase in the acidity and the density of micropores,which increases the final catalytic conversion.The effect of porous hierarchy on the diffusion of active sites and the final catalytic activity was also studied by comparing the catalytic conversion after selectively designed poisoned acid sites.These poisoned Hier-ZSM-5-x shows much higher catalytic conversion than the poisoned commercial ZSM-5 zeolite,which indicates that the numerous intracrystalline mesopores significantly reduce the diffusion path of the reactant,leading to the faster diffusion inside the zeolite to contact with the acid sites in the micropores predominating in ZSM-5 zeolites.This study can be extended to develop a series of hierarchical single-crystal zeolites with expected catalytic performance.
