摘要:
Disclosed is a catalytic method for operating an oxygenate to olefins conversion reaction to provide a substantial quantity of prime olefin in the product. The product is provided by operating within desired parameters of weight hourly space velocity and oxygenate partial pressure. Operating the reaction to supply oxygenate at an oxygenate proportion index of at least 0.5, and controlling weight hourly space velocity and molar flow rate of oxygenate to the reactor to maintain a partial pressure-velocity compensation factor of at least 0.1 psia−1hr−1, a prime olefin selectivity of at least 45 wt. % can be maintained.
摘要:
Disclosed is a method for making olefin product from an oxygenate-containing feedstock. In the method, a silicoaluminophosphate molecular sieve catalyst is contacted with the oxygenate-containing feedstock in a reactor at an average catalyst feedstock exposure index of at least 1.0. The method produces lower coke yield and provides an olefin product which is low in C1-C4 paraffin content. The invention is particularly effective in producing an olefin product having a very low propane content.

Disclosed is a method for converting an oxygenate feedstock to an olefin product. In particular, the method incorporates the use of a silicoaluminophosphate molecular sieve catalyst in the manufacture of ethylene and propylene. The method includes contacting an oxygenate-containing feedstock with a silicoaluminophosphate molecular sieve catalyst to form the olefin-containing product in a fluidized bed reactor apparatus including at least a reaction zone and a recirculation zone. Certain ratios of the mass of catalyst in the reaction zone to that of the sum of the mass of catalyst in both the reaction zone and the recirculation zone within the reactor apparatus are specified.

Disclosed is a method of heat treating a molecular sieve. The method comprises providing a template-containing molecular sieve, heating the molecular sieve under conditions effective to remove a portion of the template from the molecular sieve, and cooling the heated molecular sieve to leave an amount of template effective to cover catalytic sites within the molecular sieve. A catalyst composition is also provided which comprises a molecular sieve having a microporous structure and a binder, wherein between 10 and 90 vol % of the microporous structure is occupied by a material, the material comprising a template or a carbonaceous residue of a template, and the catalyst composition exhibits a Davison Index of not greater than 30.

This invention is directed to a method of making an olefin product from an oxygenate feedstock and a method of protecting catalytic activity of a silicoaluminophosphate molecular sieve. The methods comprise providing a silicoaluminophosphate molecular sieve having catalytic sites within the molecular sieve; shielding the catalytic sites to protect from loss of catalytic activity; and contacting the protected sieve in its activated state with an oxygenate feedstock under conditions effective to produce an olefin product before undesirable loss of catalytic activity. Undesirable loss in catalytic activity occurs when activated molecular sieve contacting the oxygenate feedstock has a methanol uptake index of at least 0.15.

A method for converting heavy olefins present in a product stream exiting a first reaction zone into light olefins and carbonaceous deposits on a catalyst without separation of the heavy olefins from the product stream exiting the first reaction zone. The method comprises creating the product stream exiting the first reaction zone, the product stream exiting the first reaction zone comprising the heavy olefins, moving the product stream exiting the first reaction zone to a second reaction zone without separation of the heavy olefins from the product stream exiting the first reaction zone, and contacting the product stream exiting the first reaction zone with the catalyst under conditions effective to form the light olefins, the contacting causing the carbonaceous deposits to form on at least a portion of the catalyst.

The present invention provides a method for maintaining temperature during regeneration of an oxygenate to olefins catalyst using liquid water as a coolant in an amount sufficient either to reduce duty of a catalyst cooler or to avoid the need to use a catalyst cooler altogether. The method also may be used to hydrotreat fresh, non-hydrothermally treated catalyst which may be added to the regenerator and charged back to the conversion reactor along with the regenerated catalyst.
摘要:
A process for the separation and removal, of hydrogen, alone or together with carbon monoxide, if present, from a mixture of these gases with reactive unsaturated hydrocarbons, by contacting the mixture with oxygen over a catalyst at conditions sufficient to oxidize the hydrogen to form water while suppressing reaction of the reactive, unsaturated hydrocarbons. The catalyst contains at least one metal or metal oxide from Groups IB, IIB, IIIB, IVB, VB, VIB, VIIB, and VIII of the Periodic Table, and the temperature of the reaction may range from about 40.degree. C. to about 300.degree. C., the pressure of the reaction ranges from about 14.7 psig to 1,000 psig, and the flow rate of the entering feed ranges from about 1 GHSV to about 50,000 GHSV. Oxygen amounts less than the stoichiometric amount required to react with the hydrogen, and optionally any carbon monoxide, are used. In a second stage, any remaining carbon monoxide is reacted with water in a water gas-shift reaction to give carbon dioxide and hydrogen, and any small remaining hydrogen is reacted with a small portion of reactive unsaturated hydrocarbon present.
