Highly efficient binder-free catalysts, based on zeolite Y, for the liquid-phase alkylation of benzene with ethylene have been synthesized. The catalysts have been modified by treating with aqueous solutions of hydrochloric and citric acids to remove extra-framework aluminum formed during the partial dealumination of zeolite Y. The synthesized catalysts have been tested in the alkylation of benzene with ethylene at a temperature of 200 degrees C, a pressure of 2.5 MPa, a benzene : ethylene molar ratio of 5 : 1, and a benzene feed space velocity of 5 h(-1). Over the modified catalyst, the ethylbenzene (EB) content in the alkylate increases by 27% and the EB selectivity increases by 5% compared to the initial Y zeolite.
