Methanol conversion on ceramic honeycombs

Methanol Conversion on Ceramic Honeycombs Coated with Silicalite... [Pg.492]

A pentasil type zeolite (ZSM-5) is being used in a methanol to gasoline (MTG) conversion process (7) in a fixed bed reactor. This type of zeolite when washcoated on ceramic honeycomb substrates should offer the advantages of lower pressure drop and high geometric surface area in the reactor. Such washcoated zeolite catalysts must be strongly bound to the honeycomb substrate and should have the maximum number of active sites for highest catalytic activity for chemical process applications. [Pg.493]

Thus the objective of this study is to find the best combination of binder and zeolite composition for washcoating silicalite (a pentasil type zeolite) on a ceramic honeycomb substrate, and to evaluate the catalytic activity for methanol conversion. This will demonstrate the utility of zeolite honeycomb catalysts for chemical processing. [Pg.493]
