Synergy effect between hierarchical structured and Sn-modified H[Sn, Al]ZSM-5 zeolites on the catalysts for glycerol aromatization

Synergy effect between hierarchical structured and Sn-modified H[Sn, Al]ZSM-5 zeolites on the catalysts for glycerol aromatization
Hierarchical H[Sn, Al]ZSM-5 zeolites were successfully prepared by hydrothermal method with directly incorporating Sn species into framework of HZSM-5 zeolites followed by alkali treatment. The prepared samples were characterized by XRD, BET, SEM-EDX, TEM, NH3-TPD, FT-IR and Py-IR. The results indicate that Sn species were successfully incorporated into HZSM-5 zeolites. The catalytic performances of all prepared zeolites were evaluated by glycerol aromatization. The highest catalytic performance of GTA synthesis was observed with H[Sn, Al]ZSM-5 treated with 0.3 M NaOH (32.1% carbon yield of BTX aromatics and 13 h catalyst lifetime), which was prior to the pure HZSM-5 (17.8% carbon yield of BTX aromatics and 3 h catalyst lifetime). The remarkably improved performance in catalytic activity and stability of H[Sn, Al]ZSM-5/0.3AT zeolitize could be attributed to synergy effect between Sn species doped into HZSM-5 zeolite and the generated micro-mesoporous structure by alkali treatment.
