ZSM-5 type zeolites have been prepared from cupola slag waste using both conventional hydrothermal and microwave syntheses at 130-200 degrees C. The ZSM-5 was synthesized by conventional heating by taking advantage of the high silica content of cupola slags. Microwave heating increased the rate of ZSM-5 formation by 4 times at 150 degrees C compared with conventional heating. The Si/Al ratio of the ZSM-5 produced by the conventional heating and the microwave crystallization were similar 28 and 29, respectively. The conventional-heating produced ZSM-5 particles 3 mu m in diameter, while, microwave-heating produced smaller ZSM-5 particles only 0.3 mu m in size. (C) 2007 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
