The comprehensive study delves into the intricate realm of zeolite catalyst deactivation within the context of biomass gasification, aiming to provide a thorough understanding of deactivation mechanisms, innovative strategies for mitigation and regeneration, and potential applications for deactivated zeolites. Key findings reveal reversible and irreversible deactivation processes, heavily influenced by physical and chemical interactions with contaminants such as nitrogen, sulfur, and heavy metals. Empirical data-driven mitigation strategies showcase the effectiveness of metal modifiers like nickel and cobalt in reducing coke yield, alongside novel approaches such as core-shell zeolite structures and the integration of redox metal oxides to maintain catalyst basicity and stability. Moreover, successful regeneration methods including thermal regeneration, chemical washing, and steaming demonstrate the restoration of catalytic activity post-deactivation. Despite reduced efficiency, deactivated zeolites exhibit promises in environmental remediation, achieving heavy metal removal efficiencies surpassing 90%, and enhancing durability while reducing permeability in construction materials and concrete additives. Furthermore, the review emphasizes the necessity for refined strategies adaptable to diverse conditions, promoting sustainable catalyst utilization in biomass gasification and beyond. Key contributions highlighted include the identification of deactivation processes, recognition of pivotal factors affecting zeolite catalysts, validation of data-driven mitigation strategies, demonstration of novel approaches, successful application of regeneration methods, and exploration of potential applications for deactivated zeolites. These findings signify significant progress in addressing zeolite catalyst deactivation mitigation and regeneration challenges and enhancing efficiency and sustainability in biomass gasification technologies.
