چکیده

در این پژوهش، زئولیت­های EU-1 و موردنیت سنتز شده، توسط روش آلومینیوم­زدایی با اسید نیتریک، اصلاح شدند و تغییر ویژگی­های آن­ها از جمله مساحت سطح، قطر، حجم حفره­ها و نسبت سیلیسیوم/آلومینیوم بررسی شد. عملکرد کاتالیزوری این دو زئولیت در فرآیند ایزومری شدن زایلن در یک رآکتور بستر ثابت بررسی و با یکدیگر مقایسه شد. نتایج نشان داد که در اثر اصلاح کاتالیزورها با اسید، بعلت حذف بسیاری از اتم­­های آلومینیوم از شبکه زئولیت­ها، نسبت سیلیسیوم/آلومینیوم و مساحت سطح زئولیت­ها افزایش یافته است که در نتیجه، فعالیت و گزینش­پذیری آن­ها در فرآیند ایزومری­شدن زایلن افزایش می­یابد. چنان که انتظار می­رفت، در فرآیند ایزومری شدن زایلن، زئولیت های اصلاح شده دارای نسبت پارا زایلن/اورتو زایلن، پارا زایلن/زایلن و نیز درصد تبدیل متازایلن بسیار بیشتری بودند.

چکیده [English]

The synthesized zeolites of EU-1 and mordenite were modified via dealumination process with Nitric acid and changes of their properties including surface area, diameter, pore volume and Si/Al ratio were investigated. The catalytic performance of these two zeolites was tested and compared together in xylene isomerization process at a fixed bed reactor. The results showed that due to modification of catalysts with acid, because of the removal of a large number of aluminum atoms from the zeolite network, the Si/Al ratio and surface area of zeolites were increased, which resulted in their activity and selectivity of xylene isomerization process. As expected, the modified zeolites had much higher para xylene/ortho xylene, para xylene/xylene and m-xylene conversion than before in xylene isomerization process.
