The skeletal isomerisation of I-pentene provides the feed stock 2-methyl-2-butene and 2-methyl-I-butene for the production of tertiary amyl methyl ether (TAME), an octane booster for petrol. Benzene, toluene, xylenes and ethylbenzene (BTX+EB) are good or even better octane boosters, although the use of benzene is limited due to its carcinogenic nature. From an industrial point of view, these compounds are therefore of importance. The conversion of I-pentene over H-ZSM-5 zeolite catalyst was studied in a fixed-bed micro reactor. 2014-07-31T11:13:18Z 2014-07-31T11:13:18Z 2002 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/5370 eng application/pdf Department of Chemical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town
