Alkylation reaction of isobutane with ethylene was performed over modified beta zeolite catalysts with a semi-batch reaction system at 100℃ and 2.5MPa. Three kinds of metal (Pt, Pd, and Cu) added zeolite catalysts were used in this study. The Copper-added catalyst showed the highest alkylation activity among them. Lower Cu loading and lower SiO2/Al2O3 ratio of beta zeolite were favored for the formation of alkylate products such as C6 and C8 hydrocarbons.
