摘要:
Cracked naphtha feeds such as FCC naphtha and coker naphtha are upgraded to produce chemical grade BTX (benzene, toluene, xylene with ethylbenzene) while co-producing a low sulfur gasoline of relatively high octane number. The cracked, sulfur-containing naphtha is processed by hydrodesulfurization followed by treatment over an acidic catalyst, preferably a zeolite such as ZSM-5 or zeolite beta with a hydrogenation component, preferably molybdenum. The treatment over the acidic catalyst in the second step restores the octane loss which takes place as a result of the hydrogenative treatment and results in a low sulfur gasoline product to permit a low sulfur gasoline of blending quality to be obtained with the BTX. The BTX can be extracted from the second stage effluent, preferably from a C.sub.6 -C.sub.8 fraction of this effluent.

An improved process is provided for selectively synthesizing pyridine and 3-alkylpyridine in high yield by reacting ammonia and a carbonyl reactant selected from the group consisting of formaldehyde, an aldehyde containing from 2 to 4 carbon atoms, a ketone containing from 3 to 5 carbon atoms, and mixtures thereof under effective conditions in the presence of a catalyst comprising an active form of a synthetic porous crystalline MCM-49 or synthetic porous crystalline material characterized by an X-ray diffraction pattern including interplanar d-spacings at 12.36.+-.0.4, 11.03.+-.0.2, 8.83.+-.0.14, 6.18.+-.0.12, 6.00.+-.0.10, 4.06.+-.0.07, 3.91.+-.0.07, and 3.42.+-.0.06 Angstroms, e.g., MCM-22, and recovering from the resulting reaction mixture a product enriched in pyridine and 3-alkylpyridine.

The use of a catalyst containing Mn, a large pore crystalline molecular sieve, and optionally rare earths in catalytic cracking is disclosed. This catalyst gives high gasoline selectivity with low coke yields and is suitable for either gas oil or resid cracking applications.
摘要:
Metal poisoning of hydrodesulfurization catalysts is reduced by coating the catalyst surface with a hydrated clay mineral, hydrated alumina, hydrated silica, or mixtures thereof. The catalyst and process in which it is used are particularly useful for the desulfurization of residual oils to produce low-sulfur, fuel oil products.
摘要:
A method for making a mesoporous or combined mesoporous/microporous inorganic oxide includes reacting a source of inorganic oxide with a complexing agent at a complexation temperature to provide a complex; decomposing the complex to provide a porous material precursor having an inorganic oxide framework containing at least some organic pore-forming agent; and removing the organic pore forming agent from the inorganic oxide framework by solvent extraction and/or calcination.
摘要:
Mesoporous aluminum oxides with high surface areas have been synthesized using inexpensive, small organic templating agents instead of surfactants. Optionally, some of the aluminum can be framework-substituted by one or more other elements. The material has high thermal stability and possesses a three-dimensionally randomly connected mesopore network with continuously tunable pore sizes. This material can be used as catalysts for dehydration, hydrotreating, hydrogenation, catalytic reforming, steam reforming, amination, Fischer-Tropsch synthesis and Diels-Alder synthesis, etc.

A process for alkylation of a hydrocarbon compound includes providing a catalyst including a zeolite Y having a crystal size of no more than 100 nm, and reacting an alkylatable hydrocarbon with an alkylating agent in the presence of the catalyst under alkylation reaction conditions to provide a gasoline product having a Research Octane Number of over 99.5.

A process for the alkylation of paraffins with olefins includes contacting the paraffin with the olefin under alkylation conditions with a zeolite having an AAI number of at least about 1.0. In a preferred process isobutane is alkylated with cis-2-butene to produce a high octane (RON) gasoline product containing trimethylpentane isomers.
摘要:
Low acidity refractory oxide-bound zeolite catalysts, for example, silica-bound ultrastable Y zeolite, possessing physical properties, e.g., crush strength, similar to those of their alumina-bound counterparts are described. Since low acidity refractory oxide-bound catalysts are inherently less active than alumina-bound zeolite catalysts, the former are particularly useful in hydrocarbon conversion processes in which reduced coke make increases catalyst cycle length. Due to their stability in acid environments, the low acidity refractory oxide-bound zeolite extrudate herein can be acid treated without unduly compromising its structural integrity.
