摘要:
Alkylate is produced by catalytically converting oxygenate feedstock, such as methanol, to lower olefins comprising C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 olefins. Ethene is separated by interstage sorption of C.sub.3 + components and an isoparaffin is alkylated with C.sub.3 -C.sub.4 olefins.The improved technique comprises fractionating an olefinic feedstream containing ethene and C.sub.3 + olefinic components by contacting the olefinic feedstream in a sorption zone with a liquid hydrocarbon sorbent to selectively sorb C.sub.3 + components; reacting C.sub.3 + olefins with excess isoparaffin in a catalytic alkylation reactor to produce C.sub.7 + alkylate hydrocarbons; fractionating the alkylation reactor effluent to provide a liquid hydrocarbon fraction rich in C.sub.4 + isoparaffin for recycle to the sorption zone as lean sorbent; and recovering C.sub.7 + alkylate product from the process.

摘要:
A catalytic process for converting an olefinic feedstock comprising lower olefin to heavier hydrocarbon product comprising the steps of:contacting the feedstock and a recycled hydrocarbon with shape-selective zeolite oligomerization catalyst in catalytic reaction zone at elevated temperature and pressure to provide a heavier hydrocarbon effluent stream comprising heavy, intermediate and light hydrocarbons;flashing the effluent stream between the reaction zone and a phase separation zone by reducing pressure of the effluent stream, thereby producing a heavy liquid stream rich in heavy hydrocarbons and a flashed effluent vapor stream containing lighter hydrocarbons;separating and recovering a recycle stream rich in intermediate range hydrocarbons from the separation zone and pressurizing the recycle stream for recycle to the reactor inlet;further fractionating the heavy liquid stream and flashed effluent vapor from the phase separation zone in first distillation tower to remove light hydrocarbons therefrom; andrecovering substantially all of the heavy hydrocarbons produced in the reaction zone in a fractionated liquid product stream.

A continuous process for upgrading C.sub.3 -C.sub.4 hydrocarbon feed containing olefins to produce heavier liquid hydrocarbons comprising converting a major portion of C.sub.3 -C.sub.4 olefins in an oligomerization zone by contacting a shape selective medium pore zeolite catalyst at elevated temperature and pressure to make distillate and olefinic gasoline; fractionating the oligomerization stage effluent to provide distillate and gasoline product and a C.sub.3 -C.sub.4 intermediate stream containing isobutane and unconverted propene and butylene; and combining the C.sub.3 -C.sub.4 intermediate stream with a portion of C.sub.3 -C.sub.4 feed and further converting the combined streams in an alkylation zone to make heavier paraffinic hydrocarbons.The olefin feed may be produced by catalytically converting methanol or similar oxygenated hydrocarbons in a known process.
摘要:
Alkylate is produced by catalytically converting oxygenate feedstock, such as methanol, to lower olefins comprising dominantly C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 olefins. Ethene is separated from primary stage effluent by interstage sorption of C.sub.3 + components which may be upgraded. Isoparaffin may be alkylated with C.sub.3 -C.sub.4 olefins in a secondary stage.The improved technique comprises fractionating an olefinic feedstream containing ethene and C.sub.3 + olefinic components by contacting the olefinic feedstream in a sorption zone with a liquid hydrocarbon sorbent to selectively sorb C.sub.3 + components;wherein the sorbent is obtained by condensing C.sub.5 + aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbon from the primary stage.

A process for converting synthol light oil product of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis to heavy distillate comprising the steps ofcontacting the light oil at elevated temperature and pressure with acid zeolite conversion catalyst to oligomerize olefins and convert oxygenated hydrocarbons contained in the light oil thereby providing an effluent containing light heavy distillate range hydrocarbon, hydrocarbon vapor and byproduct water;flashing and separating the effluent to recover a heavy distillate-rich liquid phase and a light hydrocarbon-rich vapor phase containing byproduct water;condensing the vapor phase to provide a liquid hydrocarbon recycle stream;removing byproduct water from the recycle stream;combining the light oil with the pressurized recycle stream as heat sink to prevent excessive reaction temperature during catalytic conversion.
摘要:
Alkylate is produced by catalytically converting oxygenate feedstock, such as methanol, to lower olefins comprising C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 olefins. Ethene is separated by interstage sorption of C.sub.3 + components and an isoparaffin is alkylated with C.sub.3 -C.sub.4 olefins derived from sorbate. The system comprises means for fractionating an olefinic feedstream containing ethene and C.sub.3 + olefinic components by contacting the olefinic feedstream in a sorption zone with a liquid hydrocarbon sorbent to selectively sorb C.sub.3.sup.+ components; means for reacting C.sub.3.sup.+ olefins with excess isoparaffin in a catalytic alkylation reactor to produce C.sub.7 + alkylate hydrocarbons; fractionating the alkylation reactor effluent to provide a liquid hydrocarbon fraction rich in C.sub.7.sup.+ alkylate. Liquid recycle or C.sub.5.sup.+ liquid coproduced with the lower olefin may be passed to the sorption zone as lean sorbent. C.sub.7.sup.+ alkylate product and C.sub.5.sup.+ gasoline are recovered from the process.

摘要:
An oligomerization system is provided for upgrading lower olefins to distillate hydrocarbons, especially useful as high quality jet or diesel fuels. Thye olefinic feedstock is reacted over a shape selective acid zeolite, such as ZSM-5, to oligomerize feedstock olefins and further convert recycled hydrocarbons. Reactor effluent is fractionated to recover a light-middle distillate range product stream and to obtain gasoline and heavy hydrocarbon streams for recycle.
