METHOD OF PREPARING MOLYBDENUM-CONTAINING ZEOLITE CATALYSTS FOR NON-OXIDATIVE CONVERSION OF METHANE

摘要

FIELD: petrochemical process catalysts.;SUBSTANCE: non-oxidative conversion of methane becomes more efficient owing to increased yield of desired product obtained on Mo-containing zeolite catalyst prepared by modifying zeolite with molybdenum in solid phase. In particular, molybdenum in the form of nano-size powder (obtained according to electric explosion technique in argon atmosphere) is mixed with ZSM-type zeolite and mixture is then calcined resulting in catalyst with molybdenum level 0.5 to 6.0%.;EFFECT: increased catalyst activity in methane-to-aromatic hydrocarbons conversion process.;1 tbl, 7 ex
