A series of nano ZnO/MoO3-ZrO2 catalysts with different ZnO loading (1.0, 2.5, 5.0 wt%) were prepared by impregnation method for n-pentane photoisomerization under hydrogen or nitrogen atmosphere. The properties of the catalysts were characterized with X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Brunauer Emmett Teller (BET), Transmission Electron microscope (TEM) and FTIR. The XRD result showed that the fraction of tetragonal phase of ZnO/MoO3-ZrO2 was about 0.67 for all samples. While, the specific BET surface area was about 24 m2/g. Pyridine adsorbed FTIR results showed that all samples possessed high concentration of strong Lewis acid sites and small concentration of weak Bronsted acid sites. The interaction of hydrogen and surface samples at 298-523 K formed protonic acid sites with the concomitant of the partial elimination of Lewis acid sites. Whereas no changes of the concentration of acid sites were observed in the presence of nitrogen atmosphere. The activity of all samples in the n-pentane photoisomerization was strongly determined by the presence of hydrogen gas. In fact no activity was observed in the absence of hydrogen________________________________________GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT

Aromatization of n-hexane over zinc-modified ZSM-5 zeolites was investigated. It was shown that incorporation of zinc by ion exchange into cationic positions of NH4-ZSM-5 zeolite causes acid-site strength redistribution and generation of new relatively strong Lewis acid sites in zeolite increasing the selectivity of n-hexane aromatization in comparison with the parent NH4-ZSM-5 zeolite. Simultaneous presence of Lewis and Broensted acid sites in ZSM-5 zeolite does not affect the strength of Broensted acid sites in zeolite. For the activity/selectivity of aromatization of n-hexane on Zn-modified ZSM-5 zeolites, the amount of Zn and its localization in the cationic positions are decisive. The reaction of n-hexane can be also initiated by the Zn species alone in the cationic positions. ZnO species alone as an extraframework phase was found inactive in the catalyst for aromatization of n-hexane. The influence of ZnO addition on the performance of pure ammonium forms of ZSM-5 zeolites in n-hexane conversion is a result of partial migration of zinc into cationic positions of zeolite by solid-state ion exchange.

A unique method to prepare Zn-P co-modified hierarchical ZSM-5 zeolites was developed. The ZSM-5 zeolite was directly synthesized by a dry gel conversion without adding any templates or seeds. Afterwards, the hierarchical structure was endowed to the ZSM-5 zeolite by the sequential desilication-dealumination. Zn and P species were then introduced into the hierarchical ZSM-5 zeolites by the impregnation method and their activity in methanol to aromatics process was investigated. It was found that the Zn-P co-modified hierarchical ZSM-5 zeolites possessed more Zn-related Lewis acid sites, and the ratio of Zn(OH)+/ZnO was increased. The catalytic evaluation results revealed that the benzene, toluene and xylene (BTX) and aromatics selectivity were significantly improved from 20.59% and 29.41% of pristine ZSM-5 zeolite to 28.12% and 41.88% of Zn-P co-modified hierarchical counterpart (1.5Zn0.3P/HZSM-5), respectively. Owing to the introduced highly stable Zn-P co-modified hierarchical structures, the lifetime (conversion not less than 99%) of ZSM-5 zeolite during methanol to aromatics reaction was increased from 6 h to 18 h.

Zeolitic Materials

The effect of the thermal treatment of some zeolitic materials was studied on oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of n-octane. Gallium containing faujasite catalysts were synthesized using isomorphic substitution, specifically, a galosilicalite (Ga-BaY(Sil)) and an aluminosilicalite substituted with gallium (Ga-BaY(IS)), with constant Si/M ratio. The catalysts were thermally treated at different temperatures (250, 550, and 750 °C) before catalytic testing. The quantification of total and strength of acid sites by FT-IR (O-H region), pyridine-IR, and NH3-temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) confirmed a decrease in the number of Brønsted acid sites and an increase in the number of Lewis acid sites upon increasing the calcination temperature. Isothermal n-octane conversion also decreased with the catalysts’ calcination temperature, whereas octene selectivity showed the opposite trend (also at iso-conversion). The COx selectivity showed a decrease over the catalysts calcined from 250 to 550 °C and then an increase over the 750 °C calcined catalysts, which was due to the strong adsorption of products to strong Lewis acid sites on the catalysts leading to the deep oxidation of the products. Only olefinic-cracked products were observed over the 750 °C calcined catalysts. This suggested that the thermal treatment increases Lewis acid sites, which activate n-octane using a bimolecular mechanism, instead of a monomolecular mechanism.
