Kinetic modeling and study of H-ZSM-5 coated silicon carbide ceramic foam in toluene methylation to produce xylene

Abstract This work deals with the toluene alkylation reaction with methanol catalyzed by commercial H-ZSM-5 coated over SiC foam. The main product is xylene which is a well-known building block of many petrochemicals. The foam has been purchased and H-ZSM-5 was coated on it by dip-coating method. Th...
