The invention relates to a catalyst system for oligomerizing olefins over a catalyst comprising nickel, to the use of this catalyst and to a method for dimerizing olefins.

The present invention discloses catalyst and method for producing light olefins directly from synthesis gas by a one-step process, and particularly relates to method and catalyst for directly converting synthesis gas into light olefins by a one-step process. The provided catalysts are composite materials formed of multicomponent metal oxide composites and inorganic solid acids with hierarchical pore structures. The inorganic solid acids have a hierarchical pore structure having micropores, mesopores and macropores. The metal composites can be mixed with or dispersed on surfaces or in pore channels of the inorganic solid acid and can catalyze the synthesis gas conversion to a C.sub.2-C.sub.4 light hydrocarbon product containing two to four carbon atoms. The single pass conversion of CO is 10%-60%. The selectivity of light hydrocarbon in all hydrocarbon products can be up to 60%-95%, wherein the selectivity of light olefins (C.sub.2.sup.?-C.sub.4.sup.?) is 50%-85%.

Systems, processes, and catalysts are disclosed for obtaining fuels 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.

This disclosure is directed to a novel crystalline molecular sieve designated as SSZ-107, its synthesis using 1,1-diethylpyrrolidinium cations as a structure directing agent, and its use as an adsorbent and/or a catalyst.

A membrane reactor includes a separation membrane complex and a catalyst. The separation membrane complex includes a separation membrane and a porous support. The catalyst accelerates a chemical reaction of a starting material. The support has a column-like shape extending in the longitudinal direction. The support has a membrane-formed cell (i.e., a first cell) having both longitudinal ends open. The first cell has an inner surface on which the separation membrane is arranged. The catalyst is arranged in the first cell of the separation membrane complex 1. The ratio of the average granule diameter of the catalyst to the inside diameter of the first cell is higher than or equal to 0.75 and lower than 1.
