摘要:
A process for controlling the hydrogenation activity of a catalyst comprised of a crystalline molecular sieve and at least one hydrogenation metal selected from the group consisting of a Group VIIB metal, a Group VIII metal, and mixtures thereof. The process is carried out by contacting the catalyst with hydrogen under sufficient conditions of temperature and pressure and for sufficient time to reduce the hydrogenolysis activity of the catalyst. The catalyst prepared by the process finds application in the catalytic conversion of organic compounds, such as ethylbenzene dealkylation, xylenes isomerization, and the transalkylation of polyalkylaromatic hydrocarbons.

In a process for converting C9+ aromatic hydrocarbons to lighter aromatic products a feed comprising C9+ aromatic hydrocarbons is contacted under transalkylation reaction conditions with a catalyst composition comprising (i) a first molecular sieve selected from the group consisting of ZSM-12, mordenite and a porous crystalline inorganic oxide material having an X-ray diffraction pattern including d-spacing maxima at 12.4±0.25, 6.9±0.15, 3.57±0.07 and 3.42±0.07; and (ii) a second molecular sieve having a constraint index ranging from 3 to 12. At least the first molecular sieve has a hydrogenation component associated therewith and the first and second molecular sieves are contained in the same catalyst bed. The C9+ aromatic hydrocarbons are converted under the transalkylation reaction conditions to a reaction product containing xylene.

摘要:
A method for increasing the efficiency of xylene isomerization by using a two stage isomerization process. In the first stage of the process, a C.sub.9.sup.+ aromatics feedstock is subjected to ethylbenzene conversion and xylene isomerization. Non-C.sub.8 aromatics are removed from the effluent, which is then processed in a second stage of the process to remove para-xylene and isomerize the para-xylene depleted effluent. The effluent from the second stage isomerization unit is then recycled into the inlet of the second stage of the process and a slip stream from the para-xylene separator is recycled to the feedstock and to the effluent of the ethylbenzene conversion unit. In this way, the production of para-xylene is maximized. In a preferred embodiment, toluene is co-fed into the feedstock to minimize the loss of xylenes during the ethylbenzene conversion reaction.

A process for integration of a steam reforming unit and a cogeneration power plant in which said steam reforming unit comprises two communicating fluid beds; the first fluid bed comprising a reformer containing catalyst and which is used to react steam and light hydrocarbons at conditions sufficient to produce a mixture comprising synthesis gas hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide, the second fluid bed comprising a combustor-regenerator which receives spent catalyst from the first fluid bed and which provides heat to heat the catalyst and balance the reaction endotherm, by combusting fuel gas in direct contact with the catalyst producing hot flue gas; said cogeneration power plant comprises a gas turbine equipped with an air compressor and a combustor; said integration which comprises drawing off a portion of compressed air from the power plant gas turbine air compressor leaving remainder compressed air; introducing the drawn off compressed air to the combustor-regenerator; mixing the hot flue gas from the combustor-regenerator with the remainder of the compressed air to produce a recombined gas stream and feeding this recombined gas stream to the combustor of the cogeneration gas turbine power plant.

In a process for reducing the Bromine Index of a feed containing a linear alkylbenzene and bromine-reactive olefinic hydrocarbon contaminants, the feed is contacted under conditions effective to remove bromine-reactive olefinic hydrocarbon contaminants with a catalyst comprising zeolite Y catalyst having an alpha value of about 2 to about 30. The feed will normally also contain benzene and linear paraffin remaining from the alkylation process used to produce the linear alkylbenzene.

The invention relates to a process for producing a desired dialkylbenzene isomer having a formula R2C6H4, where R is an alkyl substituent, by contacting a polyalkylbenzene compound of formula RnC6H6-n, where n is an integer between 2 and 4, with a monoalkylbenzene compound of formula RC6H5 in the presence of a molecular sieve catalyst under reaction conditions sufficient to produce said dialkybenzene isomer.

摘要:
A method for minimizing the loss of xylenes in an ethylbenzene conversion/isomerization process by adding toluene to the feedstock. The concentration of toluene in the feedstock is increased by co-feeding toluene or by recycling toluene separated from the ethylbenzene conversion reactor effluent. The increased toluene concentration reduces the loss of xylenes during the ethylbenzene conversion reaction and under preferred operating conditions increases the amount of xylenes in the product.
