ZSM-5 zeolite membranes can be tuned for hydrophilicity with varied Si/Al ratio allowing dehydration of various organic-water mixtures. α-Al2O3 supports were dip coated by silicalite-1 seed particles, dried (180°C for 12h) and calcined (450°C for 5h) for the secondary growth process. Hydrothermal synthesis of ZSM-5 zeolite membranes was carried out at 180 °C for 48 h. SEM and XRD results indicate excellent crystal morphology with high purity and preferred orientation. Prepared membranes showed a maximum perm-selectivity of 24 at 30°C for H2/SF6 separation. At that condition, H2 and SF6 permeance was 212 and 9 GPU, respectively. It was found that the permeance was higher at low Si/Al ratios, so it is expected that prepared membrane can be applicable for acetic acid dehydration.

Ga-MFI was synthesized by a hydrothermal process at atmospheric pressure. The effect of mole ratios of reactants on crystallization was also investigated thoroughly. The characteristics of synthesized Ga-MFI was compared with ZSM-5. The synthesis of Ga-MFI was carried out with five different mole-compositions of _aSiO2-_bGa2O3-_cNa2O-_dTPA2o-_eH2O. The synthesized Ga-MFI and ZSM-5 were characterized by XRD and FT-IR. The inorganic cation (Na+) and water played an important role in crystallinity and the organic cation (TPA+) as a template played a great influence on yields. With the increase in the amount of Ga3+, crystallization time was increased. With a fixed SiO2/Ga2O3 ratio of 400, the optimum reaction condition was obtained at H2O/SiO2=30~35, Na2O/SiO2=0.5~0.6, and TPA2O/Na2O=1~1.25. In these cases, the crystallinity and yield were more than 95% and 90%, respectively. By comparing IR spectrum of Ga-MFI with those of ZSM-5 and silicalite, it was found that Ga-MFI showed a unique peak at 970 cm-1, which may be used to identify Ga-MFI from ZSM-5 and silicalite.

The selective catalytic reduction(SCR) of nitric oxide by ethane in the presence of oxygen was investigated on Cu-ZSM-5, Co-ZSM-5 and Ga-ZSM-5 catalysts over a range of 400, 450 and 500℃. The catalysts were prepared by ion-exchange method. The composition of the reactant gases were 1000 ppm of NO, 1000 ppm of C2H6 and 2.5% of O2, and the reaction was conducted in a fixed-bed reactor at 1 atm. For the 20wt% Co-ZSM-5(50) catalyst, the NO conversion reached up to 100%, while the C2H6 conversion and the CO selectivity were about 50% and 25%, respectively, at 450℃. For the 20wt% Cu-ZSM-5(50) catalyst, the NO conversion and the C2H6 conversion were about 80% and 100%, respectively, but there was no CO produced. The metal ion-exchanged ZSM-5 catalysts exhibited a tendency to increase the NO conversion with the Si/Al ratio of the ZSM-5, that is, NO conversion was inversely proportional to the acidity of the catalysts. But, the effect of the acidity on NO conversion was not so large. From the XRD results of the catalysts before and after SCR reaction it was found that there was no structural change.

transition metals(Cu, Co)/ZSM-5 catalyst was made by mechanical alloying method, and their microstructures and repeated usage-properties were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The conversions ability of NO in the catalyst was measured. A part of ZSM-5 in CO/ZSM-5 composite powders was amorphous and the amorphous phase became less stable with increasing Co content. Conversion ability of NO in 10Cu/ZSM-5 powders decreased from 89% to 12% and that in 10Co/ZSM-5 decreased from 22% to 17% by 7 times conversion tests.

The exhaust gas from vehicle engines and industrial boilers contains considerable amount of harmful nitrogen monoxide(NO) which causes air pollusion and acid rain. To remove NO catalytic reduction processes using Cu ion exchanged ZSM-5 zeolite have been widely studied. In this study, an attempt was made to fabricate Cu/zeolite catalyst by using high energy ball mill. The catalytic performance of ball milled Cu/ZSM-5 zeolites is analyzed and optimum copper contents was determined. The processing variables were reaction temperature and copper contents. Complete removal of NO gas was obtained at the temperature of 553 K on 10wt.% CU/ZSM-5 mechanically alloyed composite powders. Mechanically alloyed CU/ZSM-5 catalyst showed homogeneous distribution of Cu in ZSM-5.
