    Abstract: Aspects of the invention are associated with the discovery of processes for converting methane (CH4), present in a methane-containing feedstock that may be obtained from a variety of sources such as natural gas, to higher hydrocarbons (e.g., C4+ hydrocarbons) such as gasoline, diesel fuel, or jet fuel boiling-range hydrocarbons, which may optionally be separated (e.g., by fractionation) for use as transportation fuels, or otherwise as blending components for such fuels. Particular aspects of the invention are associated with advantages arising from maintaining reaction conditions that improve the yield of C4+ hydrocarbons. Further aspects relate to the advantages gained by integration of the appropriate reactions to carry out the methane conversion, with downstream separation to recover and recycle desirable components of the reaction effluent, thereby improving process economics to the extent needed for commercial viability.

    Abstract: A process may include selecting a zeolite, introducing phosphorus (P) to the zeolite, calcining the zeolite and obtaining a P modified zeolite. The process may include contacting an oxygen-containing, halogenide-containing or sulphur-containing organic feedstock in a first reactor with a first catalyst that includes the P-modified zeolite at conditions effective to convert at least a portion of the feedstock to form a first reactor effluent that includes light olefins and a heavy hydrocarbon fraction. The process may include separating the light olefins from the heavy hydrocarbon fraction, and contacting the heavy hydrocarbon fraction in a second reactor with a second catalyst that includes the P-modified zeolite at conditions effective to convert at least a portion of the heavy hydrocarbon fraction to light olefins. The first catalyst and the second catalyst may be the same or different.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for obtaining a metalloaluminophosphate (MeAPO) molecular sieve comprising the following steps in the order given: a) providing a homogeneous solution containing sources of at least 2 of the following: aluminium (Al), phosphorous (P), metal (Me); b) adding a first MeAPO molecular sieve to the solution and modifying the pH before and/or after the addition of the first MeAPO molecular sieve to obtain an amorphous precursor; c) separating the amorphous precursor from the water; d) optionally washing and drying at a temperature below 450° C. of the amorphous precursor; e) contacting the amorphous precursor with an organic template-containing aqueous solution and with a source of Al, P or Me, which is not already present in step (a), optionally additional sources of Al and/or P and/or Me and optionally in the presence of aliphatic alcohols; f) performing a crystallization of the amorphous precursor under autogeneous conditions so as to increase the concentration of the crystalline molecular sieve in respect to the initial precursor and so as to obtain a second MeAPO molecular sieve.
