Abstract

Hierarchical SAPO-34 molecular sieve was successfully synthesized by hydrothermal crystallization method with cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide as mesoporous generating agent. The influence of different addition amounts of CTAB on the crystalline structures, morphology features, textural properties and acidity of hierarchical SAPO-34 catalysts were characterized by XRD, SEM, BET and NH3-TPD techniques. The results exhibit that the crystal size, mesoporous structure and the total acid amounts of hierarchical SAPO-34 are affected greatly by the molar ratio of CTAB/Al2O3. The selectivity of light olefins (ethane and propylene) can achieve 80 % for all SAPO-34 samples tested in the conversion of chloromethane to light olefins. Compared with the conventional SAPO-34, the hierarchical SAPO-34 samples show better catalytic stability and less carbon deposit in this conversion due to the reduction in total acid sites and the increasing mesopore volume.
