We present a thermodynamics model to evaluate zeolite synthesis prescriptions with first-principle calculations, which provide quick ways for prescription optimization. Taking MTW-type zeolites as an example, our results indicate that the framework and alkali ions selection follow the order: Al > Fe ≈ Ga > B, Li > Na ≈ K > NH4 > H. These results agree well with the reported experiments.
