摘要:
Methods are provided for producing low oxygen biomass-derived pyrolysis oil from carbonaceous biomass feedstock. In an embodiment, hydrogen gas is produced in the presence of a low temperature reforming catalyst from hemicellulose extracted from the carbonaceous biomass feedstock. The carbonaceous biomass feedstock, both whole and hemicellulose-depleted, is pyrolyzed in the presence of a pyrolysis upgrading catalyst to produce char and pyrolysis gases comprising oxygenated hydrocarbons and steam. A portion of the oxygenated hydrocarbons are converted into hydrocarbons. A residual portion of the oxygenated hydrocarbons of the pyrolysis gases is deoxygenated with the hydrogen and optionally, additional hydrogen gas. A condensable portion of the pyrolysis gases is condensed into low oxygen biomass-derived pyrolysis oil.

A process for removing a metal from a vacuum gas oil feed includes contacting the vacuum gas oil feed comprising the metal with a VGO-immiscible ionic liquid to produce a vacuum gas oil and VGO-immiscible ionic liquid mixture, and separating the mixture to produce a vacuum gas oil effluent having a reduced metal content relative to the vacuum gas oil feed.

A process for denitrogenating diesel fuel includes contacting diesel fuel containing one or more nitrogen compounds with an acid ionic liquid in an extraction zone to selectively remove the nitrogen compound(s) and produce a denitrogenated diesel fuel effluent containing denitrogenated diesel fuel and acid ionic liquid containing nitrogen species; and separating denitrogenated diesel fuel from the denitrogenated diesel fuel effluent.

A solid material is presented for the partial oxidation of natural gas. The solid material includes a solid oxygen carrying agent and a hydrocarbon activation agent. The material precludes the need for gaseous oxygen for the partial oxidation and provides better control over the reaction.
摘要:
A process for the production of methanol from methane has been developed. The process involves reacting methane with an oxidant such as oxygen or a peroxide in the presence of a catalyst and a solvent in a reaction zone to produce an effluent stream comprising a methanol product. The effluent stream is next separated into a gaseous stream comprising unreacted methane and carbon dioxide and a liquid stream comprising the methanol product and solvent. Next the gaseous stream is further separated to provide a methane stream which is recycled to the reaction zone. Finally, a methanol stream is isolated and a solvent stream is recycled to the reaction zone.
摘要:
A process for converting methane to methanol using a homogeneous catalyst has been developed. The catalyst is a metal compound having an empirical formula of MxXm where M is a metal such as Pd, Cu, Co, and Mn, X is an anion such as acetate, trifluoroacetate, sulfate, propionate, “m” is the oxidation state of M, and “x” is the anion valence of X. Generally the process involves contacting a gas stream containing methane with the homogeneous catalyst and an oxidant such as hydrogen peroxide at oxidation conditions to produce methyl trifluoroacetate. Finally, the methyl trifluoroacetate is hydrolyzed to give a methanol product stream.

摘要:
A process for the alkylation of alkenes having from 2 to 6 carbon atoms with an alkane having from 4 to 6 carbon atoms to afford an alkylate comprises reacting in the liquid phase the alkene and alkane under alkylation conditions in the presence of a novel catalyst comprising: a) a refractory inorganic oxide, b) the reaction product of a first metal halide and bound surface hydroxyl groups of the refractory inorganic oxide, c) a second metal cation, and d) optionally a zerovalent third metal. The refractory inorganic oxide is selected form the group consisting of alumina, titania, zirconia, chromia, silica, boria, silica-alumina, and combinations thereof and the first metal halide is a fluoride, chloride, or bromide of aluminum or boron. The second metal cation is selected from the group consisting of: monovalent metal cations in an amount from 0.0026 up to about 0.20 gram atoms per 100 grams refractory inorganic oxide for lithium, potassium, cesium, rubidium, silver, and copper, and from 0.012 to about 0.12 gram atoms for sodium; and alkaline earth metal cations in an amount from about 0.0013 up to about 0.01 gram atoms per 100 grams of refractory inorganic oxide for beryllium, strontium, and barium, and in an amount from about 0.004 up to about 0.1 gram atoms per 100 grams support for magnesium and calcium, or combinations thereof. The third metal is selected from the group consisting of platinum, palladium, nickel ruthenium, rhodium, osmium and iridium, and any combination thereof.
摘要:
Paraffins and other hydrocarbons are alkylated using a solid bed catalyst in a process featuring a reaction zone operated at mixed-phase conditions which allow the heat of reaction to vaporize a portion of the liquid phase feed hydrocarbon passing downward through it thus facilitating recycling of the feed hydrocarbon. The feed hydrocarbon recovered from the reaction zone effluent is recycled as a liquid, preferably admixed with hydrogen, with the feed olefin being preferably introduced near the top of the reactor as a vapor. The catalyst preferably contains a metal hydrogenation function effective to selectively hydrogenate C.sub.6 -plus olefins produced as by-products.
摘要:
Catalytic composites of the reaction product of a metal halide having Friedel-Crafts activity with the bound surface hydroxyl group of inorganic oxides and containing a zerovalent metal with hydrogenation activity, often are effective catalysts in motor fuel alkylation which, however, undergo rapid deactivation. Deactivated catalysts are readily regenerable by treating the composite from which alkylate feedstock has been removed with hydrogen at temperatures in the range of 10 to 300.degree. C. Multiple regenerations are possible without appreciable activity loss.
摘要:
Alkyl aromatic compounds may be prepared by reacting an aromatic compound with an alkylating agent such as an olefin in the presence of an alkylation catalyst. The alkylation catalyst of the present invention comprises a composite which has been prepared by coextruding a clay component and at least one multi-valent metal component in which the metal is selected from the group consisting of Groups IIIA, IIIB and IVB of the Periodic Table, followed by drying the resultant extrudate and calcination thereof. By utilizing a catalyst which has been prepared by this method in an alkylation reaction it is possible to obtain an improved alkylate selectivity.
