Abstract

A kinetic study of dimethyl ether (DME) combustion over Pt/ZSM-5 was performed below 423 K. Power law model and Langmuir-Hinshelwood model were established to predict the reaction rate. Reaction orders for DME and O2 were 0.28 and 2.30, respectively. Activation energies for the two models were 99.35 and 109.30 kJ/mol. The reaction orders and adsorption constants suggested DME was more strongly adsorbed on Pt/ZSM-5 than O2 at low temperatures. The reliability of the models was confirmed by the comparison between the predicted and experimental conversions of DME.
