Abstract:In the present study, silica‐alumina rich river clay calcined at different temperatures are used as low cost natural green catalyst for the production of valuable aromatics benzene, toluene and ethylbenzene (BTE) via multiphase/Mp‐type catalytic pyrolysis of waste expanded polystyrene (WEPS). The calcined river clay catalysts are designated as RHC‐600, RHC‐700, RHC‐800 and RHC‐900 after calcination at the temperature of 600 °C, 700 °C, 800 °C, and 900 °C, respectively. Whereas, the natural river harvested clay… Show more
