Preparation of alumina composite ZSM-5 catalysts and their performances in hydration of cyclohexene to cyclohexanol
such as phenol hydrogenation method and cyclohexane oxidation method
suffer from high energy consumptions and safety concerns. In contrast
the cyclohexene hydration method has attracted significant attention due to its high cyclohexanol selectivity and low hydrogen consumption. However
existing catalysts (such as ZSM-5 zeolite) for cyclohexene hydration to cyclohexanol face challenges including structural framework instabilities and uneven acid distributions during acid content regulation. A series of catalysts were prepared by compositing ZSM-5 zeolite with dry gel powder (primarily pseudo-boehmite) via extrusion molding. The structures of catalysts were characterized by XRD and N₂ physisorption-desorption
etc.
and their catalytic performances were evaluated in a fixed-bed reactor. The results show that reaction under optimized conditions of temperature of 110 °C
