Olefins up to C4 include ethylene, propylene, butylene, and isobutylene. Zeolites used in the present invention include X type and Y type, and Al2O3 vs. SiO
The ratio of 2 differs as follows. X type Al2O3 /SiO2 ratio 2~3Y type
Al2 O3 /SiO2 Ratio 3-6 Usually synthetic zeolites are synthesized in their sodium form with sodium ions in close proximity to each aluminum tetrahedron and a matching charge. When used in this reaction, zeolite is synthesized by treating it with an acid to exchange sodium ions and protons, or by treating it with degradable cations (generally ammonium ions) to produce sodium ions and their degradable ions. After that, heat is applied to this zeolite to synthesize proton type zeolite and use it. Generally, a sodium ion type zeolite is treated with ammonium hydroxide to remove sodium ions, and then the zeolite is heated at a temperature of 300 to 400°C to remove ammonia.
