Abstract
Two series of zeolites, vis., the MEL and MFI types, with different Si/Al molar ratios were synthesized by a steam-assisted crystallization method, specifically dry gel conversion (DGC). Their physicochemical properties were characterized by low-temperature nitrogen adsorption, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray fluorescence analysis. The acidic properties were examined by IR spectroscopy of adsorbed pyridine and 2,6-di-tert-butylpyridine as well as by ammonia temperature-programmed desorption. The DGC-synthesized zeolites were distinguished by high crystallinity, small crystal size, and well-developed surface. All the samples exhibited high activity and deactivation resistance in the oligomerization of a butane–butylene fraction. A comparative assessment of the catalytic performance the MEL and MFI samples demonstrated that the structural difference between the MEL and MFI types barely affects their deactivation resistance. Therefore, MEL zeolite is a valid alternative to the MFI type in the development of oligomerization catalysts.
期刊介绍:
Petroleum Chemistry (Neftekhimiya), founded in 1961, offers original papers on and reviews of theoretical and experimental studies concerned with current problems of petroleum chemistry and processing such as chemical composition of crude oils and natural gas liquids; petroleum refining (cracking, hydrocracking, and catalytic reforming); catalysts for petrochemical processes (hydrogenation, isomerization, oxidation, hydroformylation, etc.); activation and catalytic transformation of hydrocarbons and other components of petroleum, natural gas, and other complex organic mixtures; new petrochemicals including lubricants and additives; environmental problems; and information on scientific meetings relevant to these areas.
Petroleum Chemistry publishes articles on these topics from members of the scientific community of the former Soviet Union.
