Abstract:
Nanostructured catalysts play a key role in processes ranging from oil refining to synthesis gas conversion. Zeolites are crystalline, microporous alumino-silicates that are widely applied in catalysis and separation. In this talk we intend to unravel the 3D nanostructure of complex zeolite catalysts using a.o. electron tomography [1, 2]. Mesoporous zeolites [2] facilitate mass transfer and restrict secondary reactions in e.g. hydrocracking. Electron tomography is used to assess the mesopore network and its consequences for catalysis [3]. Trimodal porosity combining micropores (~1 nm), small mesopores (~3 nm) and large mesopores (20-50 nm) provided unique selectivity in hydrocracking [3]. The mesoporosity and microporosity of these zeolite Y samples has been quantified using advanced image ****ysis techniques [4]. Second, platinum loaded zeolite Y crystals have been studied. These Pt/Y crystals are widely used as bi-functional catalysts. In carefully synthesized Pt/Y crystals electron tomography revealed for the first time that within one zeolite Y crystal the Pt particles of 1-2 nm in size were uniformly dispersed, however, from one crystal to another the density of Pt particles varied up to a factor of 35 [5]. Third, we have varied the Pt location in Pt/Al2O3/Y catalysts. The control, characterization and impact of the location on hydrocracking of alkanes of will be presented [6].
