摘要:
A supported particulate cobalt catalyst is formed by dispersing cobalt, alone or with a metal promoter, particularly rhenium, as a thin catalytically active film upon a particulate titania or titania-containing support, especially one wherein the rutile:anatase ratio of the support is at least about 3:2. This catalyst can be used to convert an admixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen to a distillate fuel constituted principally of an admixture of linear paraffins and olefins, particularly a C.sub.10+ distillate, at high productivity, with low methane selectivity. A process is also disclosed for the preparation of these catalysts.
摘要:
A reversibly deactivated, particulate catalyst in a slurry hydrocarbon synthesis slurry is rejuvenated by circulating the slurry from a slurry body through (i) a gas disengaging zone to remove gas bubbles from the slurry, (ii) a catalyst rejuvenation zone in which a catalyst rejuvenating gas contacts the catalyst in the slurry to rejuvenate it and form a rejuvenated catalyst slurry and, (iii) back into the slurry body. Removing at least a portion of the gas bubbles improves the rejuvenation process.
摘要:
Alkylates of enhanced product quality are prepared by isomerizing a mixed butenes-containing feed prior to alkylating said feed with a saturated hydrocarbon, preferably an isoparaffin, in the presence of a catalyst comprising a strong acid such as halosulfuric acid, trihalomethanesulfonic acid or mixtures thereof and a moderator containing at least one oxygen atom per molecule. A preferred catalyst is fluorosulfuric acid and water.
摘要:
A slurry catalytic hydrocarbon synthesis process which employs a catalyst comprising a supported cobalt component achieves a short term catalyst half life of more than 10 days, by using a syngas feed which contains less than fifty parts per billion of a combined total amount of HCN and NH3.
摘要:
Catalyst in a slurry phase reactor is rejuvenated in said reactor using a substantially vertical draft tube fully immersed in the slurry which utilizes a rejuvenating gas injected substantially near the bottom of the substantially vertical draft tube whereby catalyst near the bottom of the slurry phase reactor is drawn up the draft tube and discharged from the top of the draft tube near the top of the slurry phase in said reactor, control over the rejuvenation temperature in the substantially vertical draft tube being achieved by means of insulating the draft tube and/or fitting the draft tube with heating or cooling means.

摘要:
A process for regenerating an alkylation catalyst comprising fluorosulfuric acid, said catalyst being at least partially deactivated, which comprises:(1) contacting at least a portion of the fluorosulfuric acid with water to form an acid-water mixture, thereby converting at least a portion of the fluorosulfuric acid therein to hydrogen fluoride and sulfuric acid;(2) removing at least a portion of the hydrogen fluoride from said acid-water mixture formed in step (1) by contacting same with a stripping agent to form a gaseous phase containing hydrogen fluoride and said stripping agent and a liquid phase containing sulfuric acid and sludge;(3) cooling the gas phase formed in step (2) to a temperature sufficient to form a mixed phase comprising at least a liquid phase containing hydrogen fluoride; and(4) treating the mixed phase formed in step (3) with sulfur trioxide under substantially liquid phase conditions so as to regenerate the fluorosulfuric acid. In a preferred embodiment, at least a portion of the regenerated fluorosulfuric acid is recycled to the alkylation zone for use as an alkylation catalyst therein.
摘要:
Particulate solids and gas are removed from a three phase hydrocarbon synthesis slurry of solid catalyst particles, gas and liquid, by successively passing slurry from a slurry body through solids and gas disengaging zones in fluid communication, with the solids disengaging zone upstream of the gas disengaging zone. This is accomplished using a solids and gas disengaging downcomer immersed in the slurry wherein solids are disengaged in a quiescent zone adjacent the slurry body, from which the solids reduced slurry passes through an enclosed cup in which gas is disengaged and removed. The bottom of the cup terminates in a downwardly depending downcomer which hydraulically feeds the densified, solids and gas reduced slurry to the bottom of the reactor or to filtration.
摘要:
A method for treating a waste stream from an alkylation process is disclosed, where the waste stream comprises a fluoride, sulfuric acid, and an acid soluble oil. The method comprises combusting the waste stream, scrubbing the combustion products to remove, fluorine, and recovering sulfur from the combustion products.
摘要:
The deactivated fluorosulfuric acid catalyst in olefin-paraffin alkylation is regenerated by (1) contacting the acid phase with water to form an acid-water mixture (2) stripping the acid-water mixture with a paraffin to form a gaseous phase of hydrogen fluoride and paraffin (3) cooling the gaseous phase with liquid paraffin to form a liquid fluorosulfuric acid and a vapor containing fluorosulfuric acid, hydrogen fluoride and paraffin (4) treating the vapor with liquid SO.sub.3, and utilizing liquid fluorosulfuric acid in the treating step in countercurrent flow to the vapor to convert the hydrogen fluoride to regenerated fluorosulfuric acid, (5) the remaining gas phase containing paraffin and a minor amount of fluorosulfuric acid is cooled to condense all the fluorosulfuric acid to liquid and (6) the regenerated liquid fluorosulfuric acid is used as the countercurrent flowing liquid fluorosulfuric acid in treating step (4).
