Abstract

Aromatization of light hydrocarbons (propane, butane, propane-propene mixture, and cat-cracker off-gases) on ZnO-zeolite and lanthanide-zeolite catalysts based on zeolite TsVM (SiO2/Al2O3 = 62) and industrial catalyst SGK-1 was studied. It was shown that the modification of catalysts with lanthanides leads to an increase in both the total yield of xylenes and the p-xylene selectivity, a change that is explained by the formation of branched intermediates and steric specifics of their further conversion.
