The samples were characterized by XRD, SEM, N2 adsorption-desorption, XRF, TG, 29Si MAS NMR and NH3-TPD techniques. The results indicated that the external surface acidity of SAPO-34 was finely tuned by oxalic acid treatment, and the selectivity to C2H4 on SAPO-34 and the catalyst lifetime in the methanol-to-olefin reaction were greatly improved.展开更多

However, a quantitative study of diffusion problems in SAPO-34 zeolites is lacking. In this paper, we performed a high-precision diffusion measurement of the diffusion behavior of ethane and propane, which represent ethylene and propylene respectively, over SAPO-34. The diffusions of ethane and propane over fresh and coked SAPO-34 zeolites with different crystal sizes were carefully studied. Ethane and propane show different diffusion behavior in SAPO-34. The diffusion of ethane is almost not influenced by the crystal size and coke percentage, whereas that of propane is strongly affected. A slower diffusion velocity was observed in bigger crystals, and the diffusion velocity decline signifcantly with the coke percentage increasing. The diffusion coefficient was calculated with both the internal and surface diffusion models, and the results show that the surface diffusion plays a key role in the diffusion process of both ethane and propane. We believe that this work would be helpful for understanding the diffusion of different molecules in SAPO-34 zeolites, and may lay the foundation of MTO research.展开更多
