    Abstract: A process is described for producing paraxylene, in which an aromatic hydrocarbon feedstock comprising benzene and/or toluene is contacted with an alkylating reagent comprising methanol and/or dimethyl ether in an alkylation reaction zone under alkylation conditions in the presence of an alkylation catalyst to produce an alkylated aromatic product comprising xylenes. The alkylation catalyst comprises a molecular sieve having a Constraint Index≤5, and the alkylation conditions comprise a temperature less than 500° C. The alkylation catalyst may be selectivated to produce a higher than equilibrium amount of paraxylene by using a molar ratio of alkylating agent to aromatic of at least 1:4.

    Abstract: A cyclohexane dehydrogenation process comprising a step of providing, as a benzene-containing stream, a vapor phase in equilibrium with a liquid phase at a condensation separation system; supplying benzene, hydrogen, and cyclohexane into a dehydrogenation reactor where at least part of the benzene supplied is from the benzene-containing stream. The use of a condensation separation system enables the control of the partial pressure of benzene in the material fed into the dehydrogenation reactor by controlling the temperature of the vapor phase, and hence the control of hydrogen to benzene molar ratio in the dehydrogenation reactor. The process results in a long life of the dehydrogenation catalyst due to reduced coking.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a process for producing mixed xylenes and C9+ hydrocarbons in which an aromatic hydrocarbon feedstock comprising benzene and/or toluene is contacted with an alkylating agent comprising methanol and/or dimethyl ether under alkylation conditions in the presence of an alkylation catalyst to produce an alkylated aromatic product stream comprising the mixed xylenes and C9+ hydrocarbons. The mixed xylenes are subsequently converted to para-xylene, and the C9+ hydrocarbons and its components may be supplied as motor fuels blending components. The alkylation catalyst comprises a molecular sieve having a Constraint Index in the range from greater than zero up to about 3. The molar ratio of aromatic hydrocarbon to alkylating agent is in the range of greater than 1:1 to less than 4:1.
