摘要:
The process disclosed herein is a process for producing phenyl-alkanes by alkylation of an aryl compound with an olefinic compound and which uses a mordenite catalyst and a silica-alumina catalyst. The selectivity of the process to 2-phenyl-alkanes can be varied over a wide range.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a process for the production of light olefins comprising olefins having from 2 to 4 carbon atoms per molecule from an oxygenate feedstock. The process comprises passing the oxygenate feedstock to an oxygenate conversion zone containing a metal alumninophosphate catalyst to produce a light olefin stream. The light olefin stream is fractionated and a portion of the products are metathesized to enhance the yield of the ethylene, propylene, and/or butylene products. Propylene can be metathesized to produce more ethylene, or a combination of ethylene and butene can be metathesized to produce more propylene. This combination of light olefin production and metathesis, or disproportionation provides flexibility to overcome the equilibrium limitations of the metal aluminophosphate catalyst in the oxygenate conversion zone. In addition, the invention provides the advantage of extended catalyst life and greater catalyst stability in the oxygenate conversion zone.
摘要:
An improved process is disclosed for the conversion of hydrocarbons, using a catalyst comprising a non-zeolitic molecular sieve which has been activity-moderated by controlled carbon deposition. It is of particular interest in skeletal isomerization to increase the proportion of olefins containing tertiary carbons in the product with low formation of undesirable by-products. Controlled carbon deposition increases selectivity to the desired olefin isomers. Product olefins may be further processed to obtain ethers, which enjoy high current interest as components for reformulated gasoline.
摘要:
Long chain alcohols and acids or other similar oxygenates such as esters are produced from paraffins of similar carbon number by a process comprising paraffin dehydrogenation, carbonylation, and separation. Preferably a mixture of paraffins extending over several carbon numbers and recovered from a kerosene fraction is processed, and unconverted paraffins are recycled to a dehydrogenation zone. Alternative reaction zone configurations, catalyst systems and product recovery methods are disclosed.

A process combination is disclosed to selectively upgrade naphtha to obtain products suitable for further upgrading to reformulated fuels. A naphtha feedstock is hydrogenated to saturate aromatics, followed by selective isoparaffin synthesis to yield light and heavy naphtha and isobutane; isobutane and isopentane in the product are obtained in superequilibrium concentrations. The heavy naphtha may be processed by reforming, light naphtha may be isomerized, and isobutane may be upgraded by dehydrogenation, etherification and/or alkylation to yield gasoline components from the process combination suitable for production of reformulated gasoline.
摘要:
Metal migration from molecular sieve particles to binder particles in agglomerates of molecular sieves bearing group VIII zerovalent metal occurs readily at temperatures above 350.degree. C. Such migration can seriously impair the performance of the catalyst whose effectiveness depends on the presence of the metal largely, if not exclusively, on the molecular sieve particle. Exposure of the catalyst, or a catalyst precursor, to temperatures facilitating group VIII metal migration can occur at various periods during the catalyst's history. Group VIII metal migration can be inhibited and often effectively prevented when chlorine or a chlorine-containing compound is present in the non-reducing atmosphere at temperatures which otherwise would bring about metal migration.
摘要:
A novel trimetallic catalytic composite, a method of manufacture and process use thereof is disclosed. The composite comprises a refractory support having a nominal diameter of at least 650 microns and having deposited thereon a uniformly dispersed platinum component, a uniformly dispersed Group IVA metal component and a surface-impregnated metal or metal-containing component selected from the group consisting of rhodium, ruthenium, cobalt, nickel, or iridium. When this catalytic composite is used in the reforming of hydrocarbons at low pressures, significant improvement in activity stability is observed compared to catalysts of the prior art.
摘要:
The present invention is a process for producing aryl-alkanes by paraffin isomerization followed by paraffin dehydrogenation and then by alkylation of an aryl compound by a lightly branched olefin. The effluent of the alkylation zone comprises paraffins that are recycled to the isomerization step or to the dehydrogenation step. This invention is also a process that that sulfonates phenyl-alkanes having lightly branched aliphatic alkyl groups that to produce modified alkylbenzene sulfonates. In addition, this invention is the compositions produced by these processes, which can be used as detergents having improved cleaning effectiveness in hard and/or cold water while also having biodegradability comparable to that of linear alkylbenzene sulfonates, as lubricants, and as lubricant additives. This invention is moreover the use of compositions produced by these processes as lubricants and lubricant additives.
摘要:
A process combination is disclosed to selectively upgrade naphtha to obtain gasoline which is in accordance with current standards for reformulated fuels. A naphtha feedstock is fractionated to selectively direct light naphtha to isomerization or blending, a head-cut fraction to reforming, and a heavy potion to selective isoparaffin synthesis to yield light and heavy synthesis naphtha and isobutane. The heavy potion of the synthesis naphtha is processed by reforming. Light naphtha may be isomerized, with or without recycle of low-octane components of the product. A gasoline component is blended from light, synthesis, and reformate products from the process combination.
