摘要:
Porous metallosilicate catalyst (e.g. Zeolite Beta) is active at low temperature for converting lower alkanol (e.g. methanol) and C.sub.4 -C.sub.7 tertiary alkenes to high octane ether product. Such catalytic reaction is especially useful in multizone catalytic reactor systems employing catstill rectification.
摘要:
A condensation reaction process and reactor for converting a plurality of reactants to at least one reaction product having a vapor pressure less than the vapor pressure of the reactants. The process includes heating a liquid phase of the reactants to at least partial vaporization thus forming a vapor phase of the reactants. The vapor phase reactants are passed in a vapor and or condensed state through at least one catalyst bed spaced from the liquid state to form reaction product(s). The reaction product(s) is returned to the liquid phase without additional contact with catalyst.
摘要:
A multistaged fixed catalyst bed process for the production of diisopropyl ether and isopropanol is disclosed comprising a fixed bed of serially connected stages containing zeolite Beta catalyst. A feedstream of propylene and water equivalents selected from the group consisting of water, isopropanol and diisopropyl ether is introduced into each stage at a rate sufficient to provide a mole ratio of water equivalents to propylene equivalents that increases in increments by stage from at least 0.1 in a first stage to at most 1.2 in a final stage. The feedstream is introduced at a temperature between 50.degree. and 450.degree. C., pressure between 700 and 24000 kPa, and weight hourly space velocity between 0.10 and 30, based on catalyst, whereby a single non-aqueous liquid phase is maintained in the fixed bed. An effluent product stream is recovered comprising diisopropyl ether, isopropanol and water from the final stage. Isopropanol is recycled to the first stage when the preferred product is diisopropyl ether. When the preferred product is isopropanol, diisopropyl ether and water are recycled to the first stage.
摘要:
A fuel additive having detergency, solubility and thermal stability is a mixture of polyalkenyl succinimides, polyalkylenes, i.e., polyisobutylene or polypropylene, an ester and a polyether; namely a polybutylene oxide, polypropylene oxide or polybutylene/polypropylene oxide copolymer, and an optional amount of a mineral oil or synthetic oil.

Naphtha compositions with enhanced reformability are provided. The naphtha compositions can be derived from biomass, can exhibit improved N+2A values, and can be used as a reformer feedstock with little or no processing.
摘要:
Permselective separation of aromatic hydrocarbons from non-aromatic hydrocarbons in a feed stream is accomplished using improved asymmetric membranes. The preferred membranes are fashioned from a polyimide and conditioned with a lubricating oil. Feed streams containing a mixture of aromatic and non-aromatic hydrocarbons are contacted with the dense active layer side of the polyimide membrane under a pressure and temperature sufficient to selectively permeate the desired aromatic hydrocarbon.
摘要:
Low sulfur gasoline is produced from an olefinic, cracked, sulfur-containing naphtha by treatment over an acidic catalyst, preferably an intermediate pore size zeolite such as ZSM-5 to crack low octane paraffins and olefins under relatively mild conditions, with limited aromatization of olefins and naphthenes. This is followed by hydrodesulfurization over a hydrotreating catalyst such as CoMo on alumina. The initial treatment over the acidic catalyst removes the olefins which would otherwise be saturated in the hydrodesulfurization, consuming hydrogen and lowering product octane, and converts them to compounds which make a positive contribution to octane. Overall liquid yield is high, typically at least 90 percent of higher. Product aromatics are typically increased by no more than 25 weight percent relative to the feed and may be lower than the feed.
摘要:
Deposits on intake valves in gasoline internal combustion engines are reduced by an additive for fuel compositions comprising a mixture of (1) a polyalkylene succinimide, (2) a polyalkylene and (3) a mineral oil. The invention also comprises a fuel composition made up of a major amount of liquid hydrocarbon fuel such as gasoline or diesel and a minor amount of the aforesaid mixture. In still another aspect the invention comprises a method for removing and/or preventing engine deposits which adversely affect the performance of gasoline powered engines by running the engine with a fuel containing an effective amount of the previously described mixture.

Asphalt binder modifiers derived from the thermo-catalytic conversion of biomass are provided. The asphalt binder modifiers are useful as anti-stripping agents and in increasing tensile strength ratios for asphalt concrete, asphalt-containing roofing materials, and other asphalt applications.
摘要:
Disclosed is a process for the alteration of the ratio of the specific gravities of the oil and water phases resulting from the conversion of biomass to liquid products, the reduction of the conductivity and of metals of the product mixture, which each can aid in the removal of solids contained in the oil phase.
