2 Abstract The study of the aromatisation of methane was conducted at 750 o C over metalimpregnated H-ZSM-5 catalysts with a feed flow rate of 13 ml/min and the composition of the feed was 90% methane balance argon. Typical products that were detected from the outlet stream were ethene, ethane, benzene and toluene. The amount of coke produced was determined by using 10% argon as an internal standard. The effects of different parameters such as the type of the support material, the molybdenum content, the %XRD crystallinity and SiO 2 /Al 2 O 3 ratio of H-ZSM-5, the reaction temperature, the feed flow rate, the type of the molybdenum precursor, the catalysts preparation method, the addition of dopants, silanation and the regenerability of the catalysts were investigated. The results obtained showed that H-ZSM-5 was a better support for the preparation of catalysts used for the aromatisation of methane. Mo/H-ZSM-5 catalysts were more active when the molybdenum loading was between 2 and 4 wt% and loadings higher than 4% led to lower activities. The lower activities observed at higher molybdenum loadings was related to the poor dispersion and decrease in the pore volumes and surface areas observed due to the formation of MoO 3 crystallites. Furthermore, the zeolite structure collapsed under the reaction conditions when the molybdenum loading was more than 4 wt%. The study showed that the conversion of methane increased linearly with increasing reaction temperature and the apparent activation energy of the reaction was found to be 64.5 kj/mol. The results of the effect of the %XRD crystallinity of H-ZSM-5 on the performance of H-ZSM-5 catalysts showed that 2%Mo/H-ZSM-5 catalysts were more active when the crystallinity of the zeolite was between 50 and 70%. The conversion of methane decreased with an increase in the SiO 2 /Al 2 O 3 ratio of H-ZSM-5. Higher aromatisation activities were observed when the SiO 2 /Al 2 O 3 ratio of H-ZSM-5 was ii
3 60. The type of the molybdenum precursor used in the preparation of 2%Mo/H- ZSM-5 catalysts did not have a significant influence on the conversion of the catalysts, but higher selectivities for aromatics were observed when ammonium heptamolybdate was used as a source of molybdenum. The catalysts prepared by physical mixing of MoO 3 and H-ZSM-5 catalysts were more active than those prepared by impregnation with solutions of ammonium heptamolybdate. The presence of dopants such as boron, silver and alkali metal ions (Li +, Na + and K + ) in 2%Mo/H-ZSM-5 catalysts was also investigated. Boron ( wt%) did not affect the conversion level of the catalysts but changed their selectivity properties. The selectivity for C 2 hydrocarbons increased with boron content, while the selectivity for aromatics decreased. The addition of silver ions (0.5 wt%) significantly improved the conversion of the catalysts. This was attributed to the enhancement of the acvidity of the catalysts upon addition of silver ions which was observed by temperature programmed desorption of ammonia and pyridine adsorption studies of the infrared spectra of the catalysts. The addition of alkali metal ions in the Mo:Metal ratio of 0.5 led to decreased catalytic activities, due to the lowered acidities of the catalysts. The silanation of H-ZSM-5 improved the conversion of methane but lowered the selectivity for aromatics. A comparative study of the W-based and Mo-based catalyst at equivalent molar contents showed that molybdenum-based catalysts were more active than tungsten based catalysts. The study also showed that the catalytic performance of 2%Mo/H-ZSM-5 catalysts could be regenerated to appreciable levels by treatment of the catalysts in air at 600 o C. The possibility of using Mo/H-ZSM-5 catalysts for the aromatisation of propane was also evaluated at 530 o C, with consideration of three variables, namely, the molybdenum loading, the reaction temperature and %XRD crystallinity. The results indicated that impregnation H-ZSM-5 catalysts with molybdenum led to lower iii
4 propane aromatisation activities. This lower activity was attributed to the lower Brønsted acid sites in the Mo/H-ZSM-5. The activities of the catalysts could be improved by operation at higher temperatures, but the rate of deactivation was also improved at higher temperatures. In line with the observations from the conversion of methane, higher activities were observed when the %XRD crystallinity of the catalyst was 61%. iv
