Zeolites have been successfully applied as catalysts in the pyrolysis of plastics to obtain valuable lower molecular weight hydrocarbon compounds. In present work, mordenite was directly synthesized and chemically modified from commercial increase pore volume. For first time, performance these mordenites compared with that an alkali-treated ZSM-5 for assisting simulated urban plastic waste. The...

The use of H-ZSM-5 with various binders (Al 2 O 3 , SiO and kaolinite, 10 wt% on catalyst formulation) for the catalytic conversion glycerol to bio-based aromatics (GTA) was investigated in a continuous bench-scale unit at pyrolysis temperature 450 °C, upgrading 500 WHSV pure 1 h ?1 atmospheric pressure, their performance compared (SiO /Al molar ratio 28). latter gave peak BTX carbon yield ca. ...

The realization of biofuels and chemicals requires the development highly active selective catalysts, which are resistant to deactivation. A conventional ZSM-5 (SiO2/Al2O3 = 30) was modified with 0.2 M NaOH generate a mesoporous zeolite support. parent zeolite, mic-ZSM-5, hie-ZSM-5, silica support, SiO2, were impregnated 5% nickel characterized using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Brunauer–Emm...

A novel modified Ni-ZSM-5 nanozeolite was fabricated via an organic template-free hydrothermal route. The average particle size of Ni-ZSM-5 nanozeolite was calculated to be 85 nm by scanning electronic microscopy. Then, Carbon paste electrode (CPE) was modified by Ni-ZSM-5 nanozeolite and Ni2+ ions were then incorporated to the nanozeolite matrix. Electrochemical behavior of this electrode was ...

ZSM-5- and NaY-coated MCF materials as new acid catalysts for conversion of bulky molecules were prepared by the coating procedure using diluted clear zeolite gel solutions. The resulting materials have high acidity and improved steam stability as compared to that of the corresponding MCF aluminosilica. This could be due to the zeolitic nature and relative hydrophobicity of the mesopore surface.

The hierarchically porous and iron-functionalized zeolite ZSM-5 has been fabricated as a Fenton photocatalyst by a facile post-treatment process, which exhibits an excellent visible-light catalytic property in the adsorption/degradation of organic pollutants under mild reaction conditions.

Catalytic fast co-pyrolysis of sewage sludge and sawdust was performed using Py/GC-MS for pyrolytic product upgrades. Metal oxides (NiO MoO3) ZSM-5 catalysts had been introduced into single catalytic pyrolysis. The combination NiO + MoO3 in mixed metal (MMOs) modified with under a dual-catalyst different layouts. In the pyrolysis process, specifically promoted formation phenols, ketones, furans...
