Production of High-Octane Gasolines from Bioethanol on Zn-Modified HZSM-5 Zeolite

Moscow University Chemistry Bulletin Aims and scope

Abstract

The influence of the concentration of zinc introduced into HZSM-5 on its acidic and catalytic properties in the conversion of ethanol into high-octane components of motor fuels in the temperature range of 350 to 450°C is studied. Based on the IR spectroscopy data, it is shown that an increase in the zinc content in the zeolite from 1.0 to 3.0 wt % leads to a redistribution of the acid sites, i.e., to a decrease in the concentration of strong Brønsted acid sites (B) and an increase in the concentration of medium strength Lewis ones (L) (a decrease in the B/L ratio from 3.53 to 0.44). All this has a decisive influence on the isomerizing and aromatizing selectivity of the catalyst. The maximum selectivity for isoparaffins (43.9%) has been achieved on the zeolite containing 2.0 wt % of zinc and a B/L ratio of 0.66. The catalyst obtained at 300–350°C corresponds to the Euro-5 standard in terms of the content of benzene (<1.0 wt %), aromatic (<30.0 wt %), and olefinic (<2.0 wt %) compounds.
