A Study on the Effects of Fly Ash-Derived Zeolite on the Pyrolysis of Polypropylene
Zeolites were synthesized from fly ash and used as catalysts for pyrolysis of polypropylene(PP). Zeolite synthesis was carried out by fusion methods employing three different NaOH/Fly ash ratios in weight. The catalytic performance of the fly ash-derived zeolite was assessed in terms of the yield and simulated boling point distribution of the liquid pyrolysis products. The properties of the fly ash-derived zeolites were characterized by XRD, SEM, BET, NH3-TPD. It was found that the optimum NaOH/fly ash weight ratio was 1.2 in terms of the simulated boiling point distribution. The catalytic performance of the fly ash-derived zeolite was significantly improved by ion exchanging of zeolite from Na form(FAZ) to H form(HFAZ). The boiling point distributions of liquid pyrolysis products obtained over HFAZ were significantly lower than that obtained zeolite.
