摘要:
Hydrothermal treatment of silicoaluminophosphate molecular sieves at temperatures in excess of about 700.degree. C. for periods sufficient to destroy a large proportion of their acid sites while retaining at least 80 percent of their crystallinity is found to result in a catalyst for converting methanol to lower olefins having increased catalyst life, increased selectivity for C.sub.2 -C.sub.3 olefins and decreased selectivity for paraffin production than the untreated SAPO-n starting composition.
摘要:
Catalyst particles which are employed in reactions involving the conversion of organic compounds should possess a desired configuration in order to maintain a desired voidage which will permit passage of the feedstock through the catalyst bed during the conversion reaction. Solid phosphoric acid catalysts which comprise an admixture of an acid of phosphorus and a solid binder such as a siliceous material may be formed into polylobular, tubular, ridged, fluted, or channeled cylindrical particles which will permit a sufficient amount of voidage in the catalyst bed to be maintained even though the catalyst particles will swell during the reaction due to the formation of coke on the surface thereof.

A continuous process is presented for the production and recovery of a high purity stream of 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene. The process comprises the general steps of: fractionating a hydrocarbon feed stream to recover a process stream rich in the various isomers of dimethylnaphthalene; subjecting the process stream rich in isomers of dimethylnaphthalene to a selective adsorption step to produce at least two streams of dimethylnaphthalene isomers, one lean in the 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene isomer and subjecting the stream of dimethylnaphthalene isomers lean in the 2,6 isomer to isomerization to increase the concentration of the 2,6 isomer of dimethylnaphthalene therein and directing the isomerized stream back to the fractionation zone to further processing.
摘要:
Superior aromatic alkylation and transalkylation performance is obtained with a novel catalytic composition comprising a hydrogen form mordenite incorporated with alumina. The superior performance is a direct result of the catalyst composition having a surface area of at least 580 m.sup.2 /g. A novel method of preparing a catalyst having a surface area of at least 580 m.sup.2 /g is characterized by contacting a formed catalytic composite with an acidic aqueous solution.
摘要:
This invention presents a novel treating process for the removal of trace quantities of olefinic impurities from a hydrocarbon process stream. Specifically, this process operates at liquid phase conditions treating hydrocarbon streams comprising substantially aromatics and naphthenes having Bromine Index values of about 50 to 2,000. A solid medium comprising a crystalline aluminosilicate zeolite and a refractory oxide is used to reduce the level of olefin impurities to Bromine Index values of 0.1 to 50.
摘要:
An alkylation-transalkylation process for the production of a monoalkylated aromatic compound is disclosed which maximizes the production of desirable monoalkylaromatic compounds, while limiting transalkylation catalyst deactivation. The process entails the combination of an alkylation reaction zone, a first separation zone, a second separation zone, and a transalkylation reaction zone wherein the alkylation catalyst and transalkylation catalyst are dissimilar and where the alkylation catalyst is comprised of phosphoric acid material and the transalkylation catalyst is comprised of a crystalline aluminosilicate material. The transalkylation catalyst deactivation is reduced by transalkylating only dialkylated aromatic compounds.
摘要:
Processes for the conversion, under conditions and with a catalyst system effective for olefin metathesis, of hydrocarbon feedstocks comprising an acyclic symmetrical olefin (e.g., butene-2) are described. Olefin products of lower and higher carbon numbers (e.g., propylene and pentene) are formed in the presence of a catalyst comprising a solid support and a tungsten hydride bonded to alumina present in the support. This occurs despite the olefin metathesis reaction mechanism leading to a degenerative result, without any expected production of different carbon number products from acyclic symmetrical olefins.
摘要:
Processes for the conversion, under conditions and with a catalyst system effective for olefin metathesis, of hydrocarbon feedstocks comprising butylene, for example all or a large proportion of a single C4 olefin isomer such as butene-1, are described. Olefin products, and particularly propylene, are formed in the presence of a catalyst comprising a solid support and a tungsten hydride bonded to alumina present in the support. This occurs despite the expectation that the olefin metathesis reaction mechanism leads to the formation of olefin products having other carbon numbers.

The present invention provides a reactor system having: (1) a first reactor receiving an oxygenate component and a hydrocarbon component and capable of converting the oxygenate component into a light olefin and the hydrocarbon component into alkyl aromatic compounds; (2) a separator system for providing a first product stream containing a C3 olefin, a second stream containing a C7 aromatic, and a third stream containing C8 aromatic compounds; (3) a first line connecting the separator to the inlet of the first reactor for conveying the second stream to the first reactor; (4) a second line in fluid communication with the separator system for conveying the C3 olefin to a propylene recovery unit, and (4) a third line in fluid communication with the separator system for conveying the C8 aromatic compounds to a xylene recovery unit.
摘要:
A catalyst for converting methanol to light olefins and the process for making and using the catalyst are disclosed and claimed. SAPO-34 is a specific catalyst that benefits from its preparation in accordance with this invention. A seed material is used in making the catalyst that has a higher content of the EL metal than is found in the principal part of the catalyst. The molecular sieve has predominantly a roughly rectangular parallelepiped morphology crystal structure with a lower fault density and a better selectivity for light olefins.
