RESEARCH ON THE INFLUENCE OF SODIUM ON THE LPG AROMATIZATION PROCESS OVER Ga-Zn-ZSM11 CATALYST
Abstract
ZSMI1 is a new catalyst that has been recently used in the aromatization. The conversion of LPG over HZSMII is rather low so that various types of activating agents have been added to the zeolite. Ga and Zn loaded zeolite have a high aromatization The aromatization of liquefied petroleum gas reached excellent levels over Ga-Zn-ZSMII at temperatures between 550°C-640°C and 1 atm total pressure (5) from cheap resources. Our reseaching results show that metal clusters were formed at state GazZn, in bimetallic catalyst. Due to this formation, the activity and stability of this kind of catalyst have increased remarkably. In addition, Nat content added to catalyst also affects activity and durability of catalyst.
