A facile and eco-friendly approach for the synthesis of mesopore-containing ZSM-5 zeolite with small crystal size was proposed by subtly making use of a coke-deposited spent zeolite catalyst. When used in the methanol to propylene reaction again, the refabricated ZSM-5 catalyst exhibited a much higher propylene selectivity and a longer catalytic lifetime.
