The recyclable synthesis of hierarchical zeolite SAPO-34 with excellent MTO catalytic performance

A facile and green route has been developed for the synthesis of hierarchical zeolite catalysts by recycling of waste mother-liquors. After three recycles of mother-liquors, the obtained hierarchical SAPO-34 zeolites retain high crystallinity, texture properties, and acidity, as well as excellent MTO catalytic performance as compared to the initially prepared catalysts.
