LPG transformation into aromatic hydrocarbons using Zn2+ modified pentasil zeolites has been studied at 450–540 °C and 10–58 g h/mol. The conversion and selectivity to aromatics obtained over Zn-H-ZSM-11 catalysts with different degree of exchange suggest, the primary role of the Zn2+ species is in C-H activation and the transformation of the intermediates into aromatic hydrocarbons
