The catalytic effects of sulfur in ethane dehydroaromatization

Abstract

In this work, we investigated the catalytic effect of adding sulfur on Zn/ZSM-5 catalyst for direct conversion of ethane to aromatics.

Ethane oxidative dehydrogenation with CO2 on thiogallates

“…ZnS was used for the direct non-oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane at 550 o C, showing only about 10% of conversion. 5 The thermal stability of this materials was not sufficiently at higher temperatures, where ethane conversion could reach more significant level. Thus, up to now, there is not any report on the utilization of metal sulfides for ODH-CO2 of ethane.…”
