Mechanism of methanol conversion over zeolite

Conference · · Prepr. Pap. - Am. Chem. Soc., Div. Fuel Chem.; (United States)
OSTI ID:5841473
Details of the reaction mechanisms of conversions of methanol to various alkanes and alkenes were investigated. A discussion of the autocatalytic phenomena of the conversion of methanol over ZSM-5 zeolite was included. The temperature dependence and acidity aspects of the reaction rate were discussed. Also the use of Nafion-H and heteropolyacids as catalysts of conversion was also included. A detailed description of the self-condensation of methyl iodine over Ag/sub 3/PW/sub 12/O/sub 40/ was given. The distribution of hydrocarbon products on the reaction at various temperatures, reaction times, and molar ratios of reactants was given in tabular form.
