Catalysts For Thermo-Catalytic Conversion Of Biomass, And Methods Of Making and Using

摘要

Disclosed are catalyst compositions including zeolite and silica components, methods of making, and processes of using in the thermo-catalytic conversion of biomass. Such disclosed methods of making include treating the zeolite with phosphorous during formation of the catalyst rather than prior to or after catalyst formation.

主权项

1. A method of preparing a biomass conversion catalyst comprising:
a) combining the following components in a mix vessel:
a phosphorous compound,a zeolite,a clay, andan aqueous silica precursor to thereby form an aqueous slurry; b) spray drying the aqueous slurry to thereby form spray dried particles; and c) calcining the spray dried particles to thereby form the biomass conversion catalyst.
