Toluene disproportionation over a new ZSM-5 catalyst formulation shows better activity and stability compared to the current Mobil Toluene disproportionation (MTDP) catalyst. Subsequent adiabatic pilot plant operations confirmed the activity and stability of the new catalyst. This process flexibility is expected to translate into considerable economic advantages for the process using the new catalyst formulation.
