Abstract
A method for producing a hierarchical mesoporous beta includes mixing a beta zeolite with an aqueous metal hydroxide solution and heating the beta zeolite and the aqueous metal hydroxide mixture to produce a desilicated beta zeolite, contacting the desilicated beta zeolite with an ammonium salt solution to produce an intermediate hierarchical mesoporous beta zeolite, and treating the intermediate hierarchical mesoporous beta zeolite with an acidic solution to produce the hierarchical mesoporous beta zeolite. The hierarchical mesoporous beta zeolite includes a molar ratio of silicon to aluminum of greater than 12.5, a total pore volume of greater than or equal to the total pore volume of the intermediate hierarchical mesoporous beta zeolite, and an average mesopore size of greater than or equal to the average mesopore size of the hierarchical mesoporous beta zeolite. The method may also include calcining the intermediate hierarchical mesoporous beta zeolite.
