Abstract: The catalytic properties of Mo/ZSM-5 catalysts extruded with ZnO and CeO2 as supports for non-oxidative dehydroaromatization of methane were examined. The Mo/ZSM-5 catalyst extruded with ZnO presented the optimal performance, and the aromatics yield over it increased by 9.8% compared with Mo/ZSM-5.
