摘要:
A combined process for treating heavy hydrocarbon feedstocks, such as resids that minimizes coke production and maximizes naphtha production, comprising the steps of thermally treating the feedstocks, in the absence of an added catalyst and either with or without hydrogen and steam, at a temperature of at least about 750.degree. F. (399.degree. C.) and under a pressure greater than about 400 psig to create significant chemical transformations without causing phase separation and consequent formation of sludge or a coke deposit; topping the thermally treated product to produce a distillate fraction and a bottoms fraction; coking the bottom fraction to produce gas, liquid products, and coke; and finally catalytically cracking the combined distillate fraction and liquid products to recover gas, gasoline, and light distillate products.
摘要:
An FCC or fluidized catalytic cracking process and apparatus for converting heavy metals laden crudes is disclosed. The heavy feed, conventional catalyst and an additive or vanadium getter contact the feed in a riser reactor. The additive is segregated from conventional FCC catalyst upstream of the conventional FCC regenerator. An elutriating, upflow riser reactor may be used with a coarse, rapidly settling getter. A fine, slowly settling getter may be used, with getter segregation achieved by using an elutriating cyclone on the riser outlet, an elutriating catalyst stripper, a sieve, or the like. The spent getter may be used once through, regenerated in a separate getter regenerator, or used as a source of fuel. Alumina and sponge coke are preferred getters.

A paraffin conversion process for hydroisomerizing a nitrogen and wax-containing hydrocarbon feedstock comprising contacting the feedstock with a catalyst including a ZSM-11 zeolite characterized by an alpha value from about 10 to 50, in combination with a Group VIII metal hydrogenation-dehydrogenation component of platinum or palladium at a temperature of about 400.degree. F. to about 850.degree. F. and at a pressure of from about 200 to about 2000 psig.

A process is described for preparing a binder-free Zeolite Beta containing catalyst which has a highly dispersed noble metal incorporated into the framework. The process comprises steaming Zeolite Beta, followed by noble metal incorporation and calcination. The present invention is also directed to an improved calcination process.
摘要:
This invention provides a novel hydrocracking catalyst composition that contains Zeolite Beta having a framework boron content, a solid source of alumina, and a hydrogenation component. It further provides a low-pressure hydrocracking process that uses such composition.
摘要:
An improved method which provides for an extended cycle length in catalytic lube dewaxing of residual lube oil feedstocks and easier catalyst regeneration. The method may incorporate catalytically dewaxing a feedstock in a fixed bed reactor with or without product recycle, or a series of reactors with interreactor separation of vapors from liquids. Improved performance is achieved by operating the reactor at a temperature between about 490.degree. and about 620.degree. F., employing a high activity crystalline zeolite catalyst having an alpha value between about 50 and about 900 based on the zeolite and a space velocity sufficiently low to produce a dewaxed effluent of desired pour point and to maintain an average catalyst aging rate of less than about 2.degree. F. per day. This relatively low temperature operation allows catalyst performance to be restored by simple hydrogen reactivation.
摘要:
There is disclosed an improved dewaxing process which will operate for longer periods of time involving contacting a feedstock having a 50 volume percent boiling point greater than 900.degree. F. with a crystalline aluminosilicate zeolite having a Constraint Index of from 1 to 12 and a silica-to-alumina ratio of at least 12. The crystalline aluminosilicate zeolite is composited with an inorganic oxide, such as alumina. The composite also containing a hydrogenation metal and the catalyst composite has a maximum diffusion distance of less than 0.025 inch.
摘要:
The high boiling fraction of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis is upgraded by contact with a catalyst comprising a high-silica, large pore zeolite and a hydrogenation component. The products are a distillate fraction characterized by low sulfur and nitrogen content, high isoparaffin content and low pour point and a lube fraction characterized by its high viscosity index and low pour point.
