Abstract:Aromatics are one of the most highly demanded hydrocarbon raw materials for the chemical industry. In the present study, efforts are made to understand the promotional effect of silver together with gallium on ZSM-5 zeolite as a catalyst for the reforming reaction of realistic, full range commercial naphtha feed in a fixed bed reactor at atmospheric pressure and 550 °C temperature. The dual metal system showed a synergic effect to enhance the aromatic selectivity and liquid yield and decrease the off-gas forma… Show more
