Abstract
The components of the standard catalyst globally used for natural gas direct conversion (6% Mo/H-ZSM-5) have been separately prepared and examined to represent: (a) monofunctional metallic component (6% Mo/SiO2) and (b) acidic component (H-ZSM-5 zeolite) to numerically investigate the extent of activity of each catalytic component in comparison to the activity of the standard catalyst in a fixed-bed flow-type reactor. The temperature and gas hourly space velocity are 700°C and 1500 mLg−1 h −1, respectively, which are very close to those used in the industrial gas conversion reactions. Time on stream up to 240 min was examined. The gaseous products were ethylene, propylene, and hydrogen, whereas the liquid products were benzene, toluene, and naphthalene. Carbon was also produced as deposited particles on the catalyst.
