Abstract EN
The synthesis of zeolite NaX from locally available kaolin has been studied.
The operating conditions for zeolite NaX production from kaolin with good crystallinity were as follows ; a gel formation step of meta kaolin in alkaline medium in presence of additional silica to crystallize the zeolite was achieved at 60 oC for 1 hr, and with stirring.
In ageing step of the reactants at room temperature for 5 days and crystallization step at 87±2 oC for 24 hr.
The catalytic activity of catalyst prepared from local kaolin was studied by using cumene cracking as a model for catalytic cracking and compared with standard HY zeolite and HX zeolite catalysts.
The activity test was carried out in a laboratory continuous flow unit with fixed bed reactor at duration time in the range 10-240 minutes, temperature 823 K, and LHSV 1 h-1.
The prepared and the standard catalysts were characterized by atomic absorption, X-ray diffraction analysis, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, surface area and pore volume.
