Abstract Tungstated Zirconia Nanocatalysts

Preparation of tungstated zirconia solid acid catalyst with enhanced activity

Advantages . Enhanced activity relative to solid acid catalysts . Enhanced selectivity, thermal stability, and resistance to deactivation . Environmentally friendly; Low environmental impact relative to liquid catalysts . Lower safety risk compared to liquid catalysts

Technology . A method for producing a new type of solid acid catalyst with a precisely synthesized nanostructure which offers enhanced activity and stability relative to conventional supported metal-oxide catalysts


Potential Applications Solid acid metal-oxide catalysts are widely used in the petroleum refining and chemical processing industries where they play an important role in such hydrocarbon conversion reactions as, for example, isomerization, hydrogenation, and alkylation.
