Encapsulation of cobalt complexes in zeolite Y for use as hydroformylation catalysts
… the catalysts within the cages of a zeolite, maintaining the activity of the catalyst while allowing it to be easily removed from the reaction medium ( eg. by filtration). However, all research reported so far has only considered rhodium catalysts (1,66-71,87). Furthermore, in most …

The deactivation of Zeolite-Y and mordenite during hexane cracking and propene oligomerisation
The objective of this study was to determine the effect that the type of catalyst and reaction would have on the rate of deactivation, properties of coke and transport properties of the catalyst. HY and HM were chosen because of their different pore structures and acid site distributions. Hexane …

Vanadium interaction with FCC catalysts
… cracking catalysts, which contain a form of zeolite-Y as the main catalytically active component, are widply used commercially for the conversion of crude oil into more profitable product streams. During the cracking reaction, these catalysts are contaminated with vanadium which has a marked …

Gravimetric, neutron scattering and computational studies of the sorption and diffusion of gases in zeolites
Zeolites are a class of aluminosilicate materials with many important industrial applications as catalysts, ion exchange materials and sorbents. A novel dynamic Monte Carlo program has been written that allows both the kinetic and equilibrium properties of zeolitic systems such as CaNa zeolite A …

Catalytic conversion of Ethylbenzene over acid zeolites
… was employed to compare the acidity of various zeolites, viz. lanthanum/sodium-exchanged zeolite Y (LaNaY-72), hygrogen/sodium-exchanged zeolote Y (LZY-52, LZY-62, LZY-82), hydrogen-exchanged zeolite Beta (H-BEA-15, H-BEA-25) and hydrogen-exchanged ZSM-5 (H-MFI-45).

The oligomerization of propene over cobalt catalysts
… silica alumina, synthetic mica montmorillonite, zeolite Y and NH₄⁺-ZSM-5. A cobaltmolybdenum hydrodesulphurization catalyst was also tested. The synthesis procedures used in this work included double ammoniation (Co-C), incipient wetness impregnation (Co-C, alumina, NH₄⁺-ZSM-5), ion-exchange …

Inclusion of Molybdenum into microporous and mesoporous materials
… using porous supports. The supports were zeolite Y types, large microporous cloverite, and mesoporous MCM-41. The large pore supports were used to produce catalysts that can accommodate catalysis reactions involving large molecules. The objective of this work is to study the preparation …

Heterogeneous Photooxidation of Trichloroethene on Titanium Oxides Encapsulated in Zeolites L and Y
… on titanium particles (TiOx) encapsulated in zeolite pores was studied using Transmission FT-IR. The decomposition was performed by utlizing two distinctly different pore structures. These were the interconnected supercages of zeolite Y and the parallel channeled system of zeolite L. The …

Gas-solid chromatographic studies of two well-known catalysts
… responsible for the dehydration of alcohols. Zeolite catalysts are well-known and in this work the catalytic cracking of alkanes over zeolite Y was studied. The reaction mechanism was found to be complex and catalyst deactivation due to build-up of highly carbonaceous deposits occurred. All …

Conversion of methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) to valuable chemicals over multifunctional supported catalysts
… over supported copper catalysts (Cu-Al₂O₃, Cu-zeolite Y sodium (Cu-ZYNa) and Cu-zeolite Y hydrogen (Cu-ZYH)) in a fixed bed reactor. In this reaction, MEK is hydrogenated to 2-butanol over metal sites, and further dehydrated on acid sites to produce butene. Experimental results showed that the …

Zeolite encapsulated metal complexes as heterogeneous catalysts for oxidation reactions
… or modify the framework or structure of the zeolite, confirming successful immobilization of Schiff-bases through the voids of zeolite Y.These encapsulated complexes were screened as heterogeneous catalysts for various oxidation reactions such as such as phenol, benzene, styrene and …

An investigation into the use of synthetic zeolites for in situ land reclamation.
… study to determine the feasibility of using zeolite addition for the in situ treatment of soils contaminated with heavy metals. The aim of the present work was to examine the effectiveness of three synthetic zeolites to reduce plant available metal pools in contaminated soils. Three …
