A catalyst composition comprises a self-bound zeolite and a Group 12 transition metal selected from the group consisting of Zn, Cd, or a combination thereof, the zeolite having a silicon to aluminum ratio of at least about 10, the catalyst composition having a micropore surface area of at least about 340 m2/g, a molar ratio of Group 12 transition metal to aluminum of about 0.1 to about 1.3, and at least one of: (a) a mesoporosity of greater than about 20 m2/g; (b) a diffusivity for 2,2-dimethylbutane of greater than about 1×10−2 sec−1 when measured at a temperature of about 120° C. and a 2,2-dimethylbutane pressure of about 60 torr (about 8 kPa).
Abstract:
Described herein are processes for production of hydrocarbon products comprising contacting a feed comprising methanol and/or dimethyl ether with a catalyst composition, which comprises a zeolite having a constraint index from 1-12 and an active binder comprising a metal oxide with a dehydrogenation function, under conditions sufficient to form the hydrocarbon product, wherein the hydrocarbon product comprises aromatics, olefins, and/or paraffins. Also described herein are catalyst compositions comprising a zeolite having a 10-/12-membered ring framework and a microporous surface area of at least 150 m 2 /g, and from ~1 wt% to ~10 wt% of a zinc oxide binder, the catalyst composition having a zinc to aluminum atomic ratio from ~0.08 to ~8.5.

Abstract:
Catalyst compositions suitable for use in the exhaust gas recycle stream of an internal combustion engine are provided. Such catalyst compositions typically provide significant amounts of methane in addition to syngas. A reformer incorporating such a catalyst for use in an exhaust gas recycle portion of an internal combustion engine powertrain is described. A powertrain incorporating such a reformer, a method of increasing the octane rating of an exhaust gas recycle stream, and a method of operating an internal combustion engine using methane-assisted combustion are also described.
