Highly advanced catalyst for the transformation of methanol into hydrocarbons for the reliable production of e-gasoline
The aim of the project is to develop the structure and technology of production of a new generation of high-performance catalyst for the process of transformation of methanol into modern and sustainable fuels. Specifically, the project aims to develop nanostructured hierarchical zeolitic catalyst for the transformation of methanol to a C4-C10 hydrocarbon fraction with a high content of branched alkanes and cycloalkanes with a high-octane number. The catalysts will be characterized by high activity stability, regenerability and structural stability, and will allow economic transformation of methanol to C4-C10 with high atomic selectivity.
The project is co-financed by the Technology Agency of the Czech Republic and the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Czech Republic within the TREND Programme. This project and its outcome are funded under the National Recovery Plan from the European Recovery and Resilience Facility.
