摘要:
A process is described for preparing a binder-free Zeolite Beta containing catalyst which has a highly dispersed noble metal incorporated into the framework. The process comprises steaming Zeolite Beta, followed by noble metal incorporation and calcination. The present invention is also directed to an improved calcination process.

This invention provides a novel hydrocracking catalyst composition that contains Zeolite Beta having a framework boron content, a solid source of alumina, and a hydrogenation component. It further provides a low-pressure hydrocracking process that uses such composition.
摘要:
An improved method which provides for an extended cycle length in catalytic lube dewaxing of residual lube oil feedstocks and easier catalyst regeneration. The method may incorporate catalytically dewaxing a feedstock in a fixed bed reactor with or without product recycle, or a series of reactors with interreactor separation of vapors from liquids. Improved performance is achieved by operating the reactor at a temperature between about 490.degree. and about 620.degree. F., employing a high activity crystalline zeolite catalyst having an alpha value between about 50 and about 900 based on the zeolite and a space velocity sufficiently low to produce a dewaxed effluent of desired pour point and to maintain an average catalyst aging rate of less than about 2.degree. F. per day. This relatively low temperature operation allows catalyst performance to be restored by simple hydrogen reactivation.
摘要:
There is disclosed an improved dewaxing process which will operate for longer periods of time involving contacting a feedstock having a 50 volume percent boiling point greater than 900.degree. F. with a crystalline aluminosilicate zeolite having a Constraint Index of from 1 to 12 and a silica-to-alumina ratio of at least 12. The crystalline aluminosilicate zeolite is composited with an inorganic oxide, such as alumina. The composite also containing a hydrogenation metal and the catalyst composite has a maximum diffusion distance of less than 0.025 inch.

The high boiling fraction of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis is upgraded by contact with a catalyst comprising a high-silica, large pore zeolite and a hydrogenation component. The products are a distillate fraction characterized by low sulfur and nitrogen content, high isoparaffin content and low pour point and a lube fraction characterized by its high viscosity index and low pour point.
摘要:
A combined process for treating heavy hydrocarbon feedstocks, such as resids that minimizes coke production and maximizes naphtha production, comprising the steps of thermally treating the feedstocks, in the absence of an added catalyst and either with or without hydrogen and steam, at a temperature of at least about 750.degree. F. (399.degree. C.) and under a pressure greater than about 400 psig to create significant chemical transformations without causing phase separation and consequent formation of sludge or a coke deposit; topping the thermally treated product to produce a distillate fraction and a bottoms fraction; coking the bottom fraction to produce gas, liquid products, and coke; and finally catalytically cracking the combined distillate fraction and liquid products to recover gas, gasoline, and light distillate products.
摘要:
Conversion of hydrocarbons is conducted over low acidity zeolites such as the sodium form of zeolite ZSM-5 to yield products like those produced by hydrocracking but with substantially decreased proportion of light hydrocarbons having one to four carbon atoms. (Sulfiding of sodium zeolites activates such sodium zeolites for the present purpose.) The hydrocarbon conversion is conducted with mixed phase charge (Trickle mode) under hydrogen pressure or with liquid phase charge in a liquid-full reactor.A catalyst composition comprising a metallic hydrogenation catalyst on a refractory support and an alkali metal crystalline zeolite.

A process for the manufacture of high quality lubricating oils having a high viscosity index and low pour point is disclosed which comprises catalytically dewaxing a lubricating oil stock by contacting the same in the presence of hydrogen over a zeolite such as ZSM-5 which has been silica-modified.
摘要:
A catalytic heat balanced cyclic process is provided for converting a charge consisting essentially of methanol, dimethyl ether or mixtures thereof to a hydrocarbon product rich in ethylene and propylene by contact, under specified conditions of temperature and contact time, with a catalyst comprising a crystalline aluminosilicate zeolite characterized by pores, the major dimension of which is less than 6 Angstroms and the capability, under such conditions, of producing less than about 20 weight percent methane in said hydrocarbon product, regenerating the catalyst so employed at a temperature between about 1200.degree. and about 1400.degree. F. to remove accumulated carbonaceous deposit therefrom and provide a source of hot regenerated catalyst for further contact, under controlled temperature conditions, with said charge.
摘要:
Hydrocarbon lubricants having a high viscosity index (V.I.) and low pour point are produced by hydroisomerizing a waxy lube feed such as slack wax or a waxy gas oil over zeolite beta after which aromatic components are removed by extraction, e.g. with furfural. The raffinate is then dewaxed, preferably by solvent dewaxing to target pour point with a final hydrofinishing step. The hydroisomerization coupled with the aromatics extraction and dewaxing increases the range of crudes that can be processed into high V.I. lubes while maintaining equivalent product qualities. Hydrogen consumption in the process is relatively low.
