Molecular sieves with beta zeolite topology are promising catalysts for various reactions as they exhibits extraordinary Lewis acidity. However, their industrial application and related research in academica is hindered because their synthesis is time consuming and typically involves toxic chemicals as hydrofluoric acid. Therefore, tetraethylammonium fluorid was tested as a non-toxic fluotide source for the synthesis of beta zeolites. In combination with the previously reported nano-seeded growth method, a fast synthesis of beta zeolites only involving non-toxic chemicals was possible. Synthesized zeolites show comparable selectivity in the Bayer-Villinger oxidation as conventional zeolites synthesized with hydrofluoric acid.<br>

AbstractA natural saponite was acid activated at room temperature or 90°C with different acid/clay ratios and the products were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetry. The leaching of Mg from the octahedral sheets is enhanced by an increase in the acid/clay ratio and by an increase in temperature of activation. Textural properties are reported, and it appears that they are strongly correlated to the presence of a noncrystalline silica phase which is formed during the acid activation process. The desorption of cyclohexylamine indicates that for samples activated at 90°C the number of acid sites in the acidactivated saponites decreases following severe acid treatment. Infrared spectroscopy of adsorbed pyridine on samples after calcination at 500°C suggests that acid activation at 90°C produces a single type of Bronsted site but two types of Lewis sites whereas activation at room temperature results in only one type of Lewis site in addition to a Brønsted site. The two Lewis sites are suggested to originate from residual Al in the clay structure and to AI exsolved from the layers during activation. The dehydration of pentan-1-ol has been used as a further probe to measure acidity by monitoring the degree of conversion and selectivity for the different samples.

Quinoline was synthesized via the typical Skraup approach with a vapor-phase process. The mesoporous Ni/beta zeolite catalyst exhibited high-efficiency catalytic activity and an enhanced ability of anti-deactivation.

Zeolite beta, a large-pore zeolite, was investigated in this study with a view to examining it as a potential adsorbent for the removal of aniline from aqueous solutions. Two different metal-loaded zeolites were prepared by exchanging H-beta zeolite (SiO2/Al2O3 = 75:1) with copper. The influence of exchanged copper on the uptake level was assessed. The effect of varying the silica-to-alumina ratio of the H-beta zeolite on the aniline uptake level was also examined, using three different H-beta zeolites with ratios of 25:1, 75:1 and 150:1 as adsorbents. The sorption experiments indicated an uptake level of ca. 110–120 mg/g for each zeolite and this level was also adsorbed by the copper-modified H-beta zeolites (SiO2/Al2O3 = 75:1). In all cases, the adsorption process followed the Langmuir model for adsorption and the level of aniline adsorbed was largely unaffected by a change in temperature or the presence of extra framework copper. The stability of the exchanged copper on these zeolites was then examined by measuring the quantity of copper leached from each zeolite into solution as a function of pH. Minimum copper leaching was observed in the pH range 5–11. This provided a stable pH working range for the adsorbent materials.
