Abstract

Direct conversion of ethanol to C3+ olefins is an attractive pathway to produce sustainable aviation fuels [1]. We recently reported a copper-containing catalyst supported on dealuminated (DeAl) beta zeolite that is capable of catalyzing cascade ethanol to olefins reactions with high olefins selectivity (88% C3+ olefin selectivity at 100% ethanol conversion). However, one of the deactivation mechanisms of the catalyst is copper sintering [2]. It was found that copper agglomerates can be redispersed through a simple oxidative treatment. To better understand the kinetics and process conditions conducive to redispersion, we studied the atmosphere and temperature dependent Cu species in Cu/DeAl-Beta catalyst under conditions matching those of the working catalyst.
