Abstract

This review discusses the modified hierarchical framework of zeolite ZSM-5 through top-down and bottom-up techniques, which progressed via a soft template through a combination of dealumination and desilication. Several experiments have been reviewed to increase the catalytic cracking performance of Z SM-5 zeolite, including fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) activity. Template-assisted or post-treatment procedures may be used to create hierarchical zeolites, with mesopores or macropores boosting the accessibility of acid sites in micropores and the hierarchical pore structure. The physiochemical characterization investigation revealed that the hierarchical catalysts had a substantial surface area and pore characteristics compared to the parent samples, making them an attractive alternative to be used in the FCC catalyst. It is important to develop a low-cost and effective process for manufacturing hierarchical zeolite.

Abstrak

Ulasan ini membincangkan kerangka hierarki zeolite ZSM-5 yang diubah melalui teknik atas ke bawah dan bawah ke atas, yang berkembang melalui templat lembut melalui gabungan dealuminasi dan desilikasi. Beberapa eksperimen telah dikaji untuk meningkatkan prestasi pemecahan pemangkin zeolite ZSM-5, termasuk aktiviti pemecahan pemangkin cecair (FCC). Prosedur yang dibantu templat atau pasca rawatan boleh digunakan untuk menghasilkan zeolite hierarki, dengan mesopori atau makropora meningkatkan capaian asid di mikropori dan struktur pori hierarki. Penyelidikan pencirian fisiokimia menunjukkan bahawa pemangkin hierarki mempunyai ciri luas permukaan dan liang yang besar jika dibandingkan dengan sampel induk, menjadikannya alternatif yang menarik untuk digunakan dalam pemangkin FCC. Dalam penghasilan hierarki zeolite,proses kos yang rendah dan berkesan adalah menjadi keutamaan.
