We have attempted a green alternative to reuse the spent fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) catalyst that is used in petroleum refining industry for the upgradation and purification of various petroleum streams and residues. The spent FCC zeolite–based catalyst modified by enhancing the acidic properties by incorporating Zn and In metals in the matrix. The various prepared catalysts were systematically characterized by X-ray powder diffraction and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET; adsorption isotherm) surface area. The acidity of the materials was studied by temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia (NH3-TPD). The well-characterized catalysts were applied for liquid phase benzylation of o-xylene using benzyl chloride.

In this study, the characterization of In-exchanged CHA zeolite (In-CHA (SiO2/Al2O3 = 22.3)) was conducted by in-situ X-ray diffraction (XRD) and ammonia temperature-programmed desorption (NH3-TPD). We also prepared other In-exchanged zeolites with different zeolite structures (In-MFI (SiO2/Al2O3 = 22.3), In-MOR (SiO2/Al2O3 = 20), and In-BEA (SiO2/Al2O3 = 25)) and different SiO2/Al2O3 ratios (In-CHA(Al-rich) (SiO2/Al2O3 = 13.7)). Their catalytic activities in nonoxidative ethane dehydrogenation were compared. Among the tested catalysts, In-CHA(Al-rich) provided the highest conversion. From kinetic experiments and in-situ Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, [InH2]+ ions are formed regardless of SiO2/Al2O3 ratio, serving as the active sites.

AbstractWe have examined the adsorption of simple alcohols and 2-propanamine on H-ZSM-5 zeolites with Si/Al2 ratios between 38 and 520. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) demonstrated that most of the molecules display a clearly defined adsorption state corresponding to a coverage of one molecule per Al site. Temperature programmed desorption (TPD) and transmission infrared spectroscopy results for each of the molecules in this 1:1 adsorption state are consistent with adsorption being due to the transfer of a proton from the zeolite to the adsorbed molecule. These results provide additional evidence that carefully prepared H-ZSM-5 is a Bronsted acid, with one acid site per framework Al atom, in which all of the acid sites are identical in strength.
