Methanol conversion to light alkenes over SAPO-34 molecular sieves synthesized using various sources of silicon and aluminium
Depending on the various sources of Si and Al used for the synthesis, SAPO-34 materials with different degrees of crystallinity and density of acid sites, as shown by TPD of ammonia and TPD-TGA of 1-propanamine have been prepared. The effect of the different acidities on the activity, selectivity and lifetime of the catalysts in the reaction of methanol conversion to Light alkenes has been studied.
