Metal based-zeolite catalysts were successfully prepared by two different methods including ion-exchange and wet impregnation. HZSM-5 synthesized by hydrothermal method at 160 °C was used as a support for loading metals including Co, Ni, Mo, Ga and Pd. The metal/HZSM-5 had surface area and...

HZSM-5 with high surface area of 625 m2/g was successfully synthesized by hydrothermal method at 160 °C for 72 h. The metal promoted on HZSM-5 catalyst was prepared by liquid ion exchange method. From XRD results, the addition of metals such as Co and Ni did not change the HZSM-5 structure....
