摘要:
Implementations described herein generally relate to methods for purifying alpha-olefins. The alpha-olefins may be used to form drag reducing agents for improving flow of hydrocarbons through conduits, particularly pipelines. In one implementation, a method of increasing alpha-olefin content is provided. The method includes providing an olefin feedstock composition having an alpha-mono-olefin and at least one of a diolefin having an equal number of carbon atoms to the alpha-mono-olefin and/or a triolefin having an equal number of carbon atoms to the alpha-mono-olefin. The method further includes contacting the olefin feedstock composition with ethylene in the presence of a catalyst composition including an olefin metathesis catalyst. The method further includes reacting the olefin feedstock composition and ethylene at metathesis reaction conditions to produce an alpha-olefin product comprising the alpha-mono-olefin and alpha-olefins having fewer carbon atoms than the alpha-mono-olefin.

Catalysts and processes for producing catalysts for neopentane production are provided herein. A process includes reducing a catalyst precursor comprising a transition metal and an inorganic support at a temperature less than 500° C. to produce a catalyst. Also provided herein are processes to produce neopentane using the catalysts described herein and neopentane compositions produced therefrom.
摘要:
Disclosed herein is a process for producing isoprene that includes reacting a mixed C4 metathesis feed stream comprising isobutylene and at least one of 1-butene and 2-pentene in a first metathesis reactor in the presence of a first metathesis catalyst under conditions sufficient to produce an intermediate product stream comprising at least 30 wt. % 2-methyl-2-pentene based upon the olefin content of fresh feed in the mixed C4 feed stream, and at least one of ethylene and propylene, separating the 2-methyl-2-pentene, subjecting the separated 2-methyl-2-pentene to pyrolysis to produce a reaction product stream comprising isoprene, and separating the isoprene into an isoprene product stream using fractionation. A system used in producing isoprene is also disclosed.

A process to convert propane into ethylene, propene, and C.sub.4 olefins, is provided. This process comprises: contacting propane with a composition under converting conditions.
摘要:
Ethane is produced from alkanes by introducing a mixture of hydrogen and alkanes into a reactor at a spatial velocity V and a total pressure P on a catalyst at the temperature T. The catalyst is constituted by at least one metal selected from iridium and rhodium incorporated in a support of inert refractory oxide in which SO.sub.4.sup.-- sulphate ions are not present.
摘要:
A catalyst comprising a Group VIII metal selected from Pt, Ir, Os, Ru, Rh, or Pd supported on alumina is activated at an elevated temperature with an activating gas comprising a hydrogen halide such as HCl, a halosilane such as silicon tetrachloride, and an organic halide such as ethyl chloride. The resulting catalysts exhibit an outstandingly high isomerization rate constant in the isomerization of feedstocks such as n-butane to isobutane. These catalysts are also suitable for hydrocracking operations.

THERE IS DISCLOSED A METHOD TO IMPROVE THE SELECTIVITY OF A PROCESS WHEREBY CERTAIN OLEFINS WHICH ARE DIOLEFIN PRECURSORS, ARE DEMETHANATED OR DE-ETHANATED BY PYROLYSIS TO PRODUCE CERTAIN DIOLEFINS. THE IMPROVEMENT CONSISTS OF ADDING TO THE DIOLEFIN PRECURSORS SMALL AMOUNTS OF DIOLEFINS, CONTAINING THE SAME NUMBER OF CARBON ATOMS AND SIDE CHAINS IN THE SAME POSITION, IF ANY, AS THE DIOLEFIN PRECURSORS, PRIOR TO THE PYROLYSIS.
摘要:
HETEROGENEOUS CONVERSION CATALYSTS ARE PREPARED BY FORMING, IN AN INERT ATMOSPHERE, COMPLEXES BETWEEN A REDUCED TRANSITION METAL AND A SUPPORT, THE COMPLEX IS THEN STABILIZED BY HEATING. THE CATALYSTS SO FORMED MAY BE USED FOR THE CONVERSION OF ORGANIC FEED COMPOUNDS IN THE PRESENCE OF HYDROGEN.
