“…Selectivity to aromatic products or value-added chemicals was determined to be af unction of catalyst/biomass weightr atio, heating rate, pore size, reactorc onfiguration, and reactiontemperature. [16,17,[60][61][62][63][64][65] It was demonstrated that H-ZSM-5, with aS i/Al ratio of roughly3 0, gives the best selectivity to aromaticsc omparedt oa morphous silica-aluminas, other zeolites,a nd other supported metal or metal oxide catalysts. [60,63,[66][67][68][69][70][71] However, physical mixtures of Siral 5, an amorphous silica-alumina, and H-ZSM-5 was shown to have as ynergistic effect on the yield of aromaticsr elative to either catalystalone.…”
