Exploring the regeneration of mordenite catalyst in dimethyl ether carbonylation reaction
(Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana, Unidad Iztapalapa, 2020)
Dimethyl ether carbonylation (DME) to produce methyl acetate (MA) over mordenite catalysts is attracting much attention because of its high selectivity. However, acidic mordenite suffers from a fast deactivation (coking) ...
