Catalysis is an important tool in obtaining a range of derivative products from renewable sources, such as ethanol. Solid-state dealumination using ammonium hexafluorosilicate on the BEA zeolite under the treatment at temperature of 190 °C, 70 mol% dealumination in the presence of humidity and washing with buffer solution at 25 °C generated larger pores. The absence of washing procedure for the same sample resulted in pore blockage. Ethanol dehydration reactions showed conversion of 72% (64% ethylene and 8% diethyl ether) for this sample at 300 °C and high weight hourly space velocity (WHSV, 3247 h), whereas, at the same temperature but at a low WHSV (57 h), the conversion was 88% (49% ethylene and 39% diethyl ether). Dealuminated BEA zeolite presented better diffusion conditions, higher hydrophobicity and generated larger pores. Impregnation with H3PW12O40, H4SiW12O40 and Nb2O5 explained the selectivity, showing that Lewis acid sites from Nb2O5 favored the diethyl ether production.
