Microporous crystalline silicoaluminophosphates: Effect of synthesis conditions on the physicochemical and catalytic properties in the reaction of methanol to C-2-C-4 olefins conversion

摘要

Effect of the synthesis parameters (reaction mixture composition, crystallization temperature and duration) on the physicochemical and catalytic properties of microporous crystalline silicoaluminophosphates (SAPOs) has been studied. Methods for the directional control of phase composition, degree of crystallinity, morphology and size of SAPO crystals crystallized from colloidal silicoaluminophosphate sols stabilized in tetraethylammoniun hydroxide solution as a template have been developed. It has been determined that the use of more severe synthesis conditions (increase in temperature and duration of crystallization) leads to the formation of larger crystals and a growth in the concentration of medium strength sites in the samples, which causes a rapid deactivation of the samples in the reaction of methanol conversion to C-2-C-4 olefins. Crystallization under milder conditions (a decrease in pH and temperature) promotes the acid formation of CHA/AEI intergrowth crystals exhibited a high and steady performance in the methanol conversion for more than 8 h at a total yield of olefins of 95 wt %.
