Abstract: A method for preparing a NaY molecular sieve having a high silica-to-alumina ratio, wherein deionized water, a silicon source, an aluminum source, an alkali source, and ILs as a template agent are mixed to obtain an initial gel mixture; the initial gel mixture is maintained at a proper temperature and aged, then fed into a high pressure synthesis kettle for crystallization; the solid product is separated and dried, to obtain the NaY molecular sieve having a high silica-to-alumina ratio, wherein the ILs is a short-chain alkylimidazolium ionic liquid, the template agent is less volatile, and the resultant high-silicon Y molecular sieve has a high crystallinity and a silica-to-alumina ratio of 6 or more.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing cresol from phenol and methanol via gas phase alkylation, in which phenol and methanol are preheated and mixed with diluent gas, then the mixture continuously go through a catalyst bed comprising the catalyst for alkylation of phenol with methanol, to produce cresol by gas phase reaction at the reaction temperature of 200˜500° C. and the weight hourly space velocity of 0.5˜20 h?1. The catalyst for alkylation of phenol with methanol is obtained by modification steps and using ZSM-5 zeolite, MCM-22 zeolite or Beta zeolite as an active composition. Using phenol and methanol as feedstock, the cresol selectivity can reach to 90%, and the p-cresol selectivity can reach to 58%. The catalyst is environmental friendly and non-corrosive to the equipment with a good stability and a broad prospect in industrial application.
