A study has been carried out on the effect of acid catalyst properties and operating conditions (methanol/n-butane ratio in the feed, temperature, space time, time on stream) on the yield of light olefins (C2-C4) in the simultaneous cracking of n-butane and methanol. The operation has been carried out in an isothermal fixed bed reactor in the 400-575 °C range, using catalysts prepared based on HZSM-5 zeolites (with different Si/Al ratio), HY, Ni/HZSM-5 and SAPO-18. The results are evidence of a synergism between the transformation reactions of both reactants, whose consequence is an increase in the yield of olefins that correspond to the transformation of methanol and the cracking of n-butane. Furthermore, catalyst deactivation by coke is significantly attenuated compared to the corresponding transformation of methanol. Based on the effect of operating conditions on product distribution, a kinetic model is proposed by combining the schemes corresponding to the transformation of individual components.

The synthesis of pyridine bases from acetaldehyde, formaldehyde and ammonia through aminocyclization continues to provide the best prospect for meeting growing demand. A proper selection of catalyst and standardization of process parameters are vital to achieve a market friendly product distribution and reactor operation. In this work, the major responsible factors for enhancing the activity and selectivity of HZS-5 catalysts have been identified and their individual and combined effects on aldehyde conversion, coke formation and selectivity to pyridine formation have been assessed. A priori assessment of catalyst time on stream behavior has been achieved by modeling the catalyst deactivation process.

Five different types of silica catalyst (SBA-15, SBA-15-PO3H2, and three different Si/Al ratio of commercial zeolites (30, 80 and 280) were used to study the transformation of methanol to hydrocarbon (MTH). The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of pore diameter and acidity in the structure of silica catalysts on the process performances in terms of methanol conversion and hydrocarbon selectivity. The mesoporous silica catalysts were prepared by co-condensation method. The catalysts samples were characterized by GC-MS, XRD, BET, and NH3-TPD techniques. The catalytic performance of synthesized and commercial catalysts for MTH process was evaluated using a homemade fixed bed reactor at temperature (300°C). It was found that the liquid hydrocarbon product provided by zeolite catalysts is aromatic hydrocarbons-rich. High Si/Al zeolites with larger pore size lead to higher selectivity and yield to paraffins (C1-C7). In contrast to commercial zeolite catalyst, SBA-15 and its modification with phosphorus species showed no conversion under studied condition. These results indicate that both pore diameter and acidity influence the product distribution in methanol to hydrocarbon process.

The Prins reaction between propene and formaldehyde was studied over H-BEA, H-FAU, H-MFI and H-MOR zeolites at 150 °C in liquid phase. It was found that the H-BEA sample is the most active and selective toward buta-1,3-diene; the H-MFI is a potential catalyst for 3-buten-1-ol synthesis, while H-FAU can be used for 4-methyl-1,3-dioxane production. It had been confirmed that zeolite textural and acidic properties influence catalyst behaviour: the acidic properties influence sample activity, while product distribution is controlled by pore volume and effective pore diameter. The sample’s deactivation process had been studied and the kinetic model of deactivation was proposed. It was shown that the deactivation rate for the H-MFI catalyst is four times greater than for the H-BEA catalyst, probably because its strong/weak acid sites ratio is much more high than for the H-BEA.
