Catalytic conversion of ethanol and ethanol-water mixture to ethylene on Cu-containing catalysts supported on 20 % Al2O3-80 % H-ZSM-5 was investigated. Acidic characteristics were determined by infrared spectroscopy of ammonia and a specific surface – by BET method. Optimal conditions for the catalytic conversion of ethanol and ethanol-water mixture to ethylene with 93 % and 96 % yields were found.
