摘要:
Reduction of SO.sub.x emissions from the regenerator associated with the fluidized catalytic cracking (FCC) unit for converting hydrocarbon feedstocks into more valuable products is achieved by introducing into the FCC cycle one or more organic, aluminum-containing compounds in dissolved form. In the catalytic cracking zone, the dissolved aluminum-containing compounds are converted to aluminum compounds that deposit relatively uniformly upon the catalyst particles. Also depositing upon the catalyst particles in the catalytic cracking zone are deactivating quantities of sulfur-containing coke. When such catalyst particles are introduced into the regenerator, wherein the sulfur-containing coke present on the catalyst surfaces is removed by combustion, thereby activating the catalyst particles, the SO.sub.x so produced reacts with the deposited aluminum compounds to form one or more stable, sulfur-aluminum oxidic compounds, thus desulfurizing the regenerator flue gas.Once deposited upon the catalyst particles, the aluminum compounds alternately react with the SO.sub.x compounds produced in the regenerator and then, by passage with the recycling catalyst particles through the catalytic cracking and steam stripping zones of the FCC unit, are converted to forms active for once again removing SO.sub.x compounds. Thus, just as the catalyst particles are alternately activated and deactivated for cracking hydrocarbons, the aluminum compounds dispersed on such catalyst particles undergo similar cyclical changes in activity with respect to SO.sub.x removal.
摘要:
A multi-catalyst system is provided which is effective for the conversion of nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons in near stoichiometric engine exhaust gases in a single conversion zone to which no additional air is admitted. The system comprises at least two separate but contiguous components. The first component comprises a porous inert support having dispersed thereon rhodium plus nickel and/or cobalt, and is essentially free of platinum and palladium. The second component comprises a porous inert support having dispersed thereon platinum and/or palladium, with or without nickel and/or cobalt, and is essentially free of rhodium.
摘要:
Certain crystalline aluminum borate catalyst supports containing about 8-25 weight-percent of B.sub.2 O.sub.3 are found to provide unusually stable and active catalysts for high-temperature chemical conversions, particularly exhaust gas conversion, when prepared by precalcining shaped composites of alumina and boria at temperatures between about 1250.degree. and 2600.degree.F, prior to the addition thereto of active metal or metals. Calcination at below 1250.degree. F is found to yield amorphous catalysts of inferior activity, while at temperatures above 2600.degree. F drastic reductions in surface area may occur.
摘要:
Process and catalyst for the catalytic conversion of nitrogen oxides (NO.sub.x), unburned hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide in internal combustion engine exhaust gases. The catalyst comprises essentially a composite of nickel and a minor proportion of iridium. This composite catalyst is found to be exceptionally resistant to poisoning by sulfur and lead compounds present in the exhaust gases.
摘要:
Reduction of CO and SO.sub.x emissions from regenerators associated with cyclical fluidized catalytic cracking (FCC) units used to convert hydrocarbon feedstocks into more valuable products is achieved by introducing particles of bastnaesite into the FCC unit. The bastnaesite particles recycle with the catalyst particles successively through a catalytic cracking reaction zone, a stripping zone, and a regeneration zone. The bastnaesite particles react with SO.sub.x produced in the regeneration zone of the FCC unit, thereby lowering the SO.sub.x content of the flue gas discharged therefrom. In the catalytic cracking and stripping zones of the FCC unit, the bastnaesite particles are at least partially reactivated so that upon returning to the regeneration zone yet more SO.sub.2 is removed. The bastnaesite particles also aid in lowering CO emissions from the FCC regenerator by catalyzing the reaction between CO and oxygen to yield CO.sub.2.

A porous catalytic composite is provided which is effective for the simultaneous conversion of nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons in engine exhaust gases. The composite comprises at least two physically separate but contiguous components. The first component comprises a porous inert support having dispersed thereon rhodium plus nickel and/or cobalt, and is essentially free of platinum and palladium. The second component comprises a porous inert support having dispersed thereon platinum and/or palladium, with or without nickel and/or cobalt, and is essentially free of rhodium.
