Abstract:
The invention pertains to a zeolite catalyst, methods of making same, and its use in the catalytic cracking of naphtha for the production of lower molecular weight olefins and alkanes, while minimizing production less desirable products. A zeolite is modified by base leaching and by the addition of a metal cation, thereby lowering the Si/Al2 ratio and improving the stability of the formed catalyst.

Methods and systems for improved catalytic reforming are disclosed. A method of catalytic reforming includes feeding a feedstream comprising C6-convertibles to one or more reactors; contacting the feedstream with a reforming catalyst; selecting values for a LHSV, a H2/HC ratio, and a conversion of C6-convertibles from a deactivation kinetic model so as to maximize a net present amount of benzene produced over a run-length of the reforming catalyst; operating the one or more reactors at the selected LHSV, the selected H2/HC ratio, and the selected conversion of C6-convertibles; and recovering an effluent from the reactor, wherein the effluent comprises at least about 40 wt % benzene.
Abstract:
A method for producing a linear alkylbenzene product from a bio-renewable feedstock having a mixture of naturally-derived hydrocarbons includes separating the mixture of naturally-derived hydrocarbons into a naphtha portion and a distillate portion, reforming the naphtha portion, and using a high purity aromatics recovery process on the reformed naphtha portion to produce benzene. The method further includes separating a normal paraffins portion from the distillate portion and dehydrogenating the normal paraffins portion to produce mono-olefins. Still further, the method includes reacting the benzene and the mono-olefins to produce the linear alkylbenzene product.

Abstract:
Processes and apparatuses for preparing aromatic compounds are provided. In an embodiment, a process of preparing aromatic compounds includes providing a heavy reformate stream including C7 hydrocarbons, xylenes, styrene, and compounds having more than 8 carbon atoms. The xylenes and styrene are separated from the compounds that have more than 8 carbon atoms in the heavy reformate stream to form a mixed xylene stream including the xylenes and styrene and a C9+ stream including compounds with less volatility than C8 aromatics. The styrene within the mixed xylene stream is selectively hydrogenated to form a hydrogenated xylene stream including xylenes and ethylbenzene. At least some of the xylenes are separated from the ethylbenzene in the hydrogenated xylene stream to form a C8 raffinate stream including the ethylbenzene and a xylene product stream including one or more xylene species.
