Aromatics assume a paramount role as indispensable organic chemical feedstock within diverse industrial domains. Simultaneously, the global aromatics market is scarce, particularly with the exorbitant demand for high-value aromatics. Generating aromatics via coal-based methanol and low-carbon hydrocarbon coupling reactions has become a novel green and sustainable development trajectory. In this study, HZSM-5 catalysts featuring different Si/Al ratios and active metal-functionalized modifications were utilized to explore the aromatization effect in light of the Si/Al ratio, types of active components, and metal-loading content in a fixed-bed reactor. The outcomes were that the conversion ratios for methanol and n-pentane attained 99.9% and 83.1%, respectively. Remarkably, an oil phase yield of 32.1% was accomplished, along with an aromatic content of approximately 74.2%, while xylene selectivity reached approximately 37.6% for the 1.0%-ZnO/ZSM-5 (50) catalyst. Ultimately, a reaction mechanism for the coupling of methanol and n-pentane to yield aromatics using a 1.0%-ZnO/ZSM-5(50) catalyst is postulated.
