Methane dehydro-aromatization (MDA) over zeolite supported molybdenumcatalysts is a novel way for direct catalytic conversion of methane into valuablechemicals.
Mo/HZSM-5 catalysts show good catalytic performance in MDA. However,the formation of carbonaceous deposits during the reaction results in thedeactivation of the catalyst. Modifying the catalyst and introducing anoxygen-containing reactant additive are two approaches to enhance the stability ofthe catalyst. In this work, we selected dimethy...
