Coking Mechanism of Mo/ZSM-5 Catalyst in Methane Dehydroaromatization
Applied catalysis A, General(2021)
摘要
Methane dehydroaromatization is a potential technique in converting natural gas into value-added aromatics and clean hydrogen. However, severe coking hinders industrial application of conventionally prepared Mo/ZSM-5 catalyst for methane dehydroaromatization. Usually, Bronsted acid sites (BAS) were considered the key for coking. To gain deeper insight into the coke, here we present a simple post-impregnation of Na+ to Mo/HZSM-5 to regulate its surface acidity. Influences of BAS on catalytic performance and coking behavior were thus exclusively studied. Na+ modified catalysts exhibit lower naphthalene and higher C2 selectivity, while selectivity for benzene is not obviously changed. These results contradict conventional bi-functional pathway that methane is dehydrogenated on Mo while BAS act as the center for intermediates cyclization. Characterizations and cal-culations indicate restricted growth of hydrocarbon pools confined in zeolite channels of Na+ modified catalysts. Hence, it is proposed that aromatization is the intrinsic property of Mo, and the Mo-associated carbonaceous species act as precursors for both coke and aromatics production.
