In situ reforming of lignite pyrolysis volatiles for enriching light aromatics over Ga substituted HZSM-5

HZSM-5 was hydrothermally synthesized by Ga substitution to regulate the texture properties for light aromatics such as benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylenes and naphthalene (BTEXN) during the lignite volatiles catalytic upgrading process. High BTEXN yield was obtained over xGa/H5(A) (added NaOH in crystallization) and the value increased with raising the amount of Ga incorporation when the Ga content was
