Structure and Activity of Ni<sub>2</sub>P/Desilicated Zeolite β Catalysts for Hydrocracking of Pyrolysis Fuel Oil into Benzene, Toluene, and Xylene
The effects of desilication (DS) of the zeolite β on the hydrocracking of polycyclic aromatics were investigated using the Ni<sub>2</sub>P/β catalysts. The Ni<sub>2</sub>P/β catalysts were obtained by the temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) metho...
