\nAbstract<\/strong> \u2014 MCM-22 (MTW) is among a unique class of mul\u00adti\u00addi\u00admen\u00adsion\u00adal pore shape selec\u00adtive zeo\u00adlites where\u00adin the prin\u00adci\u00adpal locus for catal\u00ady\u00adsis is in 12 mem\u00adber ring (12-MR) sur\u00adface pock\u00adets. The zeo\u00adlite con\u00adtains two inde\u00adpen\u00addent pore sys\u00adtems, both of which are accessed through rings com\u00adprised of ten tetra\u00adhe\u00addral (T) atoms (such as Si, Al, and B). One of these pore sys\u00adtems is defined by two-dimen\u00adsion\u00adal, sinu\u00adsoidal chan\u00adnels and the oth\u00ader is defined by large 12-MR supercages with an inner free diam\u00ade\u00adter of 0.71 nm and a height of 1.82 nm. Vir\u00adtu\u00adal\u00adly all acid cat\u00adalyzed reac\u00adtions take place in pock\u00adets formed from the sur\u00adface ter\u00admi\u00adna\u00adtion of the 1.82 nm high and 0.71 nm diam\u00ade\u00adter supercages. The zeo\u00adlite has been eval\u00adu\u00adat\u00aded and found promis\u00ading for a num\u00adber of acid-cat\u00adalyzed reac\u00adtions. Most impor\u00adtant\u00adly, it has been found to be unusu\u00adal\u00adly selec\u00adtive for aro\u00admat\u00adic alky\u00adla\u00adtion in the pres\u00adence of a wide range of olefins under liq\u00aduid phase con\u00addi\u00adtions. This pre\u00adsen\u00adta\u00adtion will describe the dis\u00adcov\u00adery, devel\u00adop\u00adment and com\u00admer\u00adcial deploy\u00adment of this zeo\u00adlite that is used wide\u00adly in sev\u00ader\u00adal aro\u00admat\u00adic alky\u00adla\u00adtion process\u00ades.
