Abstract:
The invention relates to a catalyst composition, a method of making the same and its use in the conversion of a feedstock, preferably an oxygenated feedstock, into one or more olefin(s), preferably ethylene and/or propylene The catalyst composition comprises a molecular sieve and at least one metal oxide, such as a magnesium oxide that, when saturated with acetone and contacted with said acetone for 1 hour at 25° C., converts more than 80% of the acetone.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to molecular sieve compositions and a process to synthesize such compositions. More particularly, this invention relates to a catalyst composition with metal oxide deposited on the exterior surface of the molecular sieve particles. The metal oxide can be deposited by contacting the molecular sieve particles with a solution of a metal-containing salt and a solvent, the metal-containing salt solution having an anion size larger than the pore size of the molecular sieve particles. The molecular sieve particles can then be dried and then treated under conditions sufficient to form a metal oxide, whereby at least a portion of the metal-containing salt can be converted to metal oxide.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a conversion process for making olefin(s) using a molecular sieve catalyst composition. More specifically, the invention is directed to a process for converting a feedstock comprising an oxygenate in the presence of a molecular sieve catalyst composition, wherein the feedstock is free of or substantially free of metal salts.

Abstract:
An oxygenate conversion catalyst useful in the conversion of oxygenates such as methanol to olefinic products may be improved by the use of a catalyst combination based on a molecular sieve in combination with a co-catalyst comprising a mixed metal oxide composition which has oxidation/reduction functionality under the conditions of the conversion. This metal oxide co-catalyst component will comprise a mixed oxide of one or more, preferably at least two, transition metals, usually of Series 4, 5 or 6 of the Periodic Table, with the metals of Series 4 being preferred, as an essential component of the mixed oxide composition. The preferred transition metals are those of Groups 5, especially titanium and vanadium, Group 6, especially chromium or molybdenum, Group 7, especially manganese and Group 8, especially cobalt or nickel. Other metal oxides may also be present. The preferred molecular sieve components in these catalysts are the high silica zeolites and the SAPOs, especially the small pore SAPOs (8-membered rings), such as SAPO-34. These catalyst combinations exhibit reduced coke selectivity have the potential of achieving extended catalyst life. In addition, these catalysts have the capability of selectively converting the hydrogen produced during the conversion to liquid products, mainly water, reducing the demand on reactor volume and product handling.
Abstract:
This invention relates to processes for converting oxygenates to olefins and olefins to polyolefins. The processes include a step of pretreating molecular sieve used in the conversion of oxygenate to olefin with a dimethyl ether composition. Fresh or regenerated molecular sieve, which is low in carbon content, is contacted or pretreated with the dimethyl ether composition to form a hydrocarbon co-catalyst within the pore structure of the molecular sieve, and the pretreated molecular sieve containing the co-catalyst is used to convert oxygenate to a lighter olefin product.
Abstract:
A catalyst composition comprises (i) a support; (ii) a dehydrogenation component comprising at least one metal or compound thereof selected from Groups 6 to 10 of the Periodic Table of Elements; and (iii) potassium or a potassium compound present in an amount of about 0.15 to about 0.6 wt % of potassium based upon the total weight of the catalyst composition, wherein the catalyst composition has an oxygen chemisorption of greater than 50%.
Abstract:
A converter system includes a first converter, a second converter, and a first inter-phase transformer. The first converter is electrically connected to the second converter in parallel between a first input terminal parallel end and a first output terminal parallel end. The first inter-phase transformer is disposed at the first input side parallel terminal or the first output side parallel terminal, and the first inter-phase transformer is operable to restrain a circulating current generated by the first converter and the second converter.
