Abstract
ZSM-5 type zeolites have been prepared from cupola slag waste using both conventional hydrothermal and microwave syntheses at 130–200 °C. The ZSM-5 was synthesized by conventional heating by taking advantage of the high silica content of cupola slags. Microwave heating increased the rate of ZSM-5 formation by 4 times at 150 °C compared with conventional heating. The Si/Al ratio of the ZSM-5 produced by the conventional heating and the microwave crystallization were similar 28 and 29, respectively. The conventional-heating produced ZSM-5 particles 3 μm in diameter, while, microwave-heating produced smaller ZSM-5 particles only 0.3 μm in size.
