METHOD FOR PREPARING A MESOPOROUS MATERIAL, MATERIAL OBTAINED THEREOF AND USE

摘要

A method to remove silica from a silica containing material characterized in that it comprises (i) contacting said silica containing material with a first metal ion carbonate, to obtain a first composition, and (ii) heating said first composition in a vessel at a temperature sufficient to increase the pressure above the atmospheric pressure in said vessel or at a pressure of at least 2 bara and at a temperature of at least 80°C, preferably 100°C wherein said pressure is preferably autogeneously generated, wherein the total amount of water of said first composition originating from (a) the silica containing material and from (b) the first metal ion carbonate is greater or equal to 4 mol of water per mol of metal ion carbonate, and wherein the first composition obtained at step (i) is not a suspension in water and is under solid state at standard temperature and pressure (STP), before the performance of step (ii) and wherein said silica containing material is a zeolite
