Abstract

The front cover artwork for Issue 19/2016 is provided by researchers from the Catalysis Engineering group at TU Delft (The Netherlands). The image shows that after impregnation with Ca, ZSM-5 becomes a “super-catalyst”, which is able to suppress formation of aromatics thus increasing selectivity to the desired propylene in MTO reaction.
