1-Butene oligomerization over ZSM-5 zeolite: Part 1 – Effect of reaction conditions

Reaction pathway and kinetics of C3–C7 olefin transformation over high-silicon HZSM-5 zeolite at 400–490°C

“…Compared to the previous studies on olefin transformation [2,8,10,14,15,31,32], the temperature investigated in this work is in moderate range. The temperature dependence indicates that, under the high temperature, the bimolecular cracking will be insignificant and the monomolecular cracking becomes dominant.…”

“…The transformation of olefins over acid zeolite, including cracking and oligomerization, is a significant process with impact in many chemical and petrochemical processes [1][2][3][4][5]. Particularly, catalytic oligomerization is more relevant in processes that upgrades light olefinic gases into hydrocarbons in the gasoline (C 5 -C 10 ) and diesel (C 10 -C 20 ) ranges, such as the MOGD process (mobile olefin to gasoline and distillate) [6].…”

“…The multimolecular reactions, e.g., dimerization, trimerization and etc., of the parent olefin are initiated and followed by the secondary reactions such as isomerization or cracking, yielding a variety of derivative olefins [2,13]. Lin et al [14] found the catalyst acid strength had great effect on the reaction pathways and product distribution for 1-butene over ZSM-5.…”

Alternative thermochemical routes for aviation biofuels via alcohols synthesis: Process modeling, techno-economic assessment and comparison

“…Recently, Coelho et al [71] investigated the influence of process parameters in 1-butene oligomerization with HZSM-5 revealing the existence of secondary reactions such as cracking after a certain temperature increase (200°C) that deteriorate the oligomers selectivity (mainly C 8 ). High pressure and short contact time favor the heavier products formation.…”

Controlling coke deactivation and cracking selectivity of MFI zeolite by H3PO4 or KOH modification

“…In addition, the transformation of 1-butene into other more interesting light olefins is an alternative to the oligomerization for the production of middle distillates [36]. The literature reports the complexity of the 1-butene cracking reaction scheme (including oligomerization-cracking, dehydrogenation-aromatization and hydrogen transfer reactions) [37,38] and the significant effect of MFI zeolite properties on product distribution and stability [5,31,39].…”
