Abstract:
Systems, processes, and catalysts are disclosed for obtaining fuel and fuel blends containing selected ratios of open-chain and closed-chain fuel-range hydrocarbons suitable for production of alternate fuels including gasolines, jet fuels, and diesel fuels. Fuel-range hydrocarbons may be derived from ethylene-containing feedstocks and ethanol-containing feedstocks.
Abstract:
Processes and systems for making cyclopentadiene and/or dicyclopentadiene include converting acyclic C5 hydrocarbon(s) into CPD in a first reactor to obtain a product mixture, washing the product mixture with a wash oil, separating the washed product mixture in a separation sub-system such as compression train to obtain a C5-rich fraction comprising CPD, dimerizing the C5-rich fraction in a dimerization reactor to obtain a product effluent, followed by separating the product effluent to obtain a DCPD-rich fraction. Wash oil can be recovered and recycled. Multiple-stage of dimerization and separation steps can be used to obtain multiple DCPD-rich fractions of various purity and quantity. C5-rich fractions from various stages of the process may be recycled to the first reactor, or converted into mogas components after selective hydrogenation. C5-rich fractions and mogas components may be optionally separated to produce value-adding chemicals.
Abstract:
The invention relates to converting non-aromatic hydrocarbon in the presence of CO2 to produce aromatic hydrocarbon. CO2 methanation using molecular hydrogen produced during the aromatization increases aromatic hydrocarbon yield. The invention also relates to equipment and materials useful in such upgrading, to processes for carrying out such upgrading, and to the use of such processes for, e.g., natural gas upgrading.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for converting methane to syngas are provided. Certain exemplary methods and systems involve reacting methane and carbon dioxide with a nickel oxide catalyst in a reaction chamber, thereby providing syngas and a reduced nickel species. The reduced nickel species can be regenerated by oxidation with air in a regeneration chamber, thereby generating a regenerated nickel oxide and heat. The regenerated nickel oxide and heat can be returned to the reaction chamber to drive the syngas reaction.
