摘要:
A catalyst, of especial usefulness in simultaneously reducing the pour point and the organosulfur and/or organonitrogen content of waxy shale oils, comprises a Group VIB metal component on a support comprising a porous refractory oxide and a crystalline silica, such as silicalite.
摘要:
A process for treating a molecular sieve-containing alkylation catalyst to increase its selectivity for monoalkylation in which the alkylation catalyst is contacted with a feedstock comprising at least one organic compound under conditions such that a sufficient amount of carbonaceous material evenly deposits on the alkylation catalyst to substantially suppress its alkylation activity. The carbon-containing catalyst particles are then subjected to combustion by contacting them with a gaseous oxidizing agent at an elevated temperature to remove at least a portion of the carbonaceous material, preferably substantially all of the carbonaceous material, thereby increasing the selectivity of the catalyst for monoalkylation by at least about 1.0 percentage point. The resulting alkylation catalyst an be used to alkylate benzene and other aromatic compounds with ethylene, propylene or other olefins to produce high yields of ethylbenzene, cumene and other alkylated products. Preferably, the alkylation catalyst contains an ammonium-exchanged and steam stabilized Y zeolite.
摘要:
A waxy hydrocarbon feedstock is converted into a product hydrocarbon of reduced normal paraffin content by either dewaxing or hydrodewaxing the feedstock in the presence a dewaxing or hydrodewaxing catalyst under conditions such that the normal paraffin content of the feedstock is reduced by selectively converting waxy paraffins into lower molecular weight hydrocarbons. At least a portion of the effluent from the dewaxing or hydrodewaxing zone is then passed to a hydrocracking zone where it is contacted with a hydrocracking catalyst in the presence of hydrogen under conditions such that a further reduction in the normal paraffin content is effected. When the desired product is a lube oil base stock, the overall conversion of components in the feed boiling above about 650.degree. F. to components boiling at or below about 650.degree. F. that takes palce in the dewaxing or hydrodewaxing step and the hydrocracking step combined is no more than about 20 volume percent, preferably no more than about 10 volume percent. When the desired product is a middle distillate, the overall conversion of feedstock constituents in the dewaxing or hydrodewaxing step and the hydrocracking step combined to components boiling below about 300.degree. F. is no more than about 25 volume percent, preferably no more than about 15 volume percent.
摘要:
A spindle oil is hydrotreated and then hydrodewaxed in the presence of a catalyst containing at least 70 percent by weight of an intermediate pore molecular sieve in the support so as to produce a selected fraction having a low pour point and viscosity comparable to the original spindle oil, said fraction being then suitable as a "cutter stock" for lowering the pour point of fuel oils.
摘要:
Y Zeolites are prepared with rare earth cations and Group VIII metal cations exchanged thereinto, such zeolites being especially useful in hydrocracking catalysts. The zeolites of the invention are prepared by exchanging a sodium Y zeolite with cations of one or more rare earth elements followed by a calcination, an ammonium ion exchange, and a Group VIII metal cation exchange. The resultant zeolite is not only highly active for catalytically promoting hydrocracking reactions but is also, after use in hydrocracking environments resulting in coke deposition, essentially completely regenerable by combustion of the coke.
摘要:
A novel catalytic absorbent composition is prepared with a synthetic copper or silver carbonate-containing material. The absorbent is useful for removing hydrogen sulfide and mercaptan sulfur from hydrocarbon oils, especially from feedstreams to a reformer.
摘要:
Catalysts comprising bismuth and vanadium components are highly active and stable, especially in the presence of water vapor, for oxidizing hydrogen sulfide to sulfur or SO.sub.2. Such catalysts have been found to be especially active for the conversion of hydrogen sulfide to sulfur by reaction with oxygen or SO.sub.2.
摘要:
A hydrocarbon conversion catalyst useful for hydrocracking hydrocarbons to more valuable products comprises one or more hydrogenation components supported on a base containing (1) a crystalline aluminosilicate zeolite having activity for cracking hydrocarbons and (2) a dispersion of silica-alumina in an alumina matrix.
摘要:
A hydrocarbon feedstock containing organo-sulfur compounds, such as a naphtha containing mercaptans, is desulfurized by contact, under non-hydrogenative conditions, with a reduced catalytic absorbent comprising one or more nickel components and one or more platinum group metal promoters composited with a porous refractory oxide.
