Abstract:
ITQ-40 (INSTITUTO DE TECNOLOGÍA QUÍMICA number 40) is a new crystalline microporous material with a framework of tetrahedral atoms connected by atoms capable of bridging the tetrahedral atoms, the tetrahedral atom framework being defined by the interconnections between the tetrahedrally coordinated atoms in its framework. ITQ-40 can be prepared in silicate compositions with an organic structure directing agent. It has a unique X-ray diffraction pattern, which identifies it as a new material.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for hydroprocessing hydrocarbon feedstocks, said process comprising contacting a hydrocarbon feedstock under hydroprocessing conditions with a bulk catalyst composition comprising bulk metal particles that comprise at least one Group VIII non-noble metal, at least one Group VIB metal and nanoparticles. The bulk metal catalyst composition comprises bulk metal particles that may be prepared by a manufacturing process comprising the steps of combining in a reaction mixture (i) dispersible nanoparticles having a dimension of less than about lμm upon being dispersed in a liquid, (ii) at least one Group VIII non-noble metal compound, (iii) at least one Group VIB metal compound, and (iv) a protic liquid; and reacting the at least one Group VIII non-noble metal compound and the at least one Group VIB metal in the presence of the nanoparticles.
Abstract:
A method for hydrodesulfurizing FCC naphtha is described. More particularly, a Co/Mo metal hydrogenation component is loaded on a silica or modified silica support in the presence of organic ligand and sulfided to produce a catalyst which is then used for hydrodesulfurizing FCC naphtha. The silica support has a defined pore size distribution which minimizes olefin saturation.
Abstract:
A process for producing lube oil basestocks wherein a wax containing lube oil boiling range feedstream is converted into a basestock suitable for use in motor oil applications by contacting it with a hydrodewaxing catalyst containing a medium pore molecular sieve having deposited thereon an active metal oxide and at least one hydrogenation metal selected from the Group VIII and Group VIB metals.
Abstract:
Methods are provided for modifying hydrogenation catalysts having silica supports (or other non-alumina supports) with additional alumina, and using such catalysts to achieve unexpectedly superior hydrogenation of feedstocks. The modified hydrogenation catalysts can have a relatively low cracking activity while providing an increased activity for hydrogenation.
Abstract:
Described herein is a catalyst precursor composition comprising at least one metal from Group 6 of the Periodic Table of the Elements, at least one metal from Groups 8-10 of the Periodic Table of the Elements, and a reaction product formed from (i) a first organic compound containing at least one amine group and at least 10 carbon atoms or (ii) a second organic compound containing at least one carboxylic acid group and at least 10 carbon atoms, but not both, wherein the reaction product contains additional unsaturated carbon atoms, relative to the first or second organic compound, wherein the metals of the catalyst precursor composition are arranged in a crystal lattice, and wherein the reaction product is not located within the crystal lattice. A process for preparing the catalyst precursor composition is also described, as is sulfiding the catalyst precursor composition to form a hydroprocessing catalyst.
Abstract:
A method is provided for preparing a supported cobalt-containing catalyst having substantially homogeneously dispersed, small cobalt crystallites. The method comprises depositing cobalt nitrate on a support and then subjecting the support to a two-step decomposition protocol. In the first step, the support is heated in an oxygen-containing, substantially water-free atmosphere to about 16OºC to form an intermediate decomposition product. This intermediate product is then or hydrolyzed and reduced, or hydrolyzed, calcined and reduced.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a process for upgrading hydrocarbonaceous feedstreams by hydroprocessing using bulk bimetallic catalysts. More particularly, the invention relates to a catalytic hydrotreating process for the removal of sulfur and nitrogen from a hydrocarbon feed such as a fuel or a lubricating oil feed. The catalyst is a bulk catalyst comprising a Group VIII metal and a Group VIB metal.
Abstract:
A process for producing Tube oil basestocks wherein a wax containing Tube oil boiling range feedstream is converted into a basestock suitable for use in motor oil applications by contacting it with a hydrodewaxing catalyst containing a medium pore molecular sieve having deposited thereon an active metal oxide and at least one hydrogenation metal selected from the Group VIII and Group VIB metals.
