The present disclosure is directed to novel germanosilicate compositions and methods of producing and using the same. Included among the new materials are the new germanosilicates of CIT-5 topology having Si:Ge ratios either in a range of from 3.8 to 5.4 or from 30 to 200, with and without added metal oxides. The disclosure also describes methods of preparing and using these new germanosilicate compositions as well as the compositions themselves.

This invention belongs to the technical field of green preparation of environmentally friendly catalysts, and discloses a preparation method and application of mesoporous FeCu—ZSM-5 molecular sieve, in particular to a method for synthesizing mesoporous FeCu—ZSM-5 molecular sieve by one-pot method and the application in selective catalytic reduction (SCR) denitration reaction. This invention firstly proposes to combine the two calcinations after demolding and ion exchange into one, that is, the original powder is directly calcined to prepare a FeCu—ZSM-5 molecular sieve. The molecular sieve has several advantages such as window with wide temperature window, low cost, good hydrothermal stability and high SCR denitrification activity. Besides, the synthesis process does not use a (large) pore template, nor does it use a post-treatment method to construct the mesopores. Therefore, the method of the invention not only has the advantages of simple process, simple operation, but also good economic and environmental benefits.

Described herein is a process for producing a zeolitic material having an MWW framework structure containing YO.sub.2 and B.sub.2O.sub.3, in which Y stands for a tetravalent element. The process includes the steps of (i) preparing a mixture containing one or more sources for YO.sub.2, one or more sources for B.sub.2O.sub.3, one or more organotemplates, and seed crystals, (ii) crystallizing the mixture obtained in (i) for obtaining a layered precursor of the MWW framework structure, and (iii) calcining the layered precursor obtained in (ii) for obtaining the zeolitic material having an MWW framework structure. Also disclosed herein are synthetic boron-containing zeolites obtain by the process and uses thereof.

In accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, a catalyst composition includes a catalyst support and at least one hydrogenative metal component disposed on the catalyst support. The catalyst support includes at least one USY zeolite having a framework substituted with titanium and zirconium and at least one beta zeolite also having a framework substituted with titanium and zirconium. A method of using such a catalyst in a hydrocracking process is also disclosed.

The invention relates to a catalyst which comprises a carrier substrate, palladium, and a zeolite, the largest channels of which are formed by 10 tetradrically coordinated atoms; to the use of said catalyst as a passive nitrogen oxide adsorber, an exhaust gas system which contains said catalyst and an SCR catalyst, and to a method for purifying the exhaust gas of motor vehicles using said exhaust gas system.

Provided is a beta zeolite also having exceptional catalytic activity as a catalyst other than an olefin epoxidation catalyst. This beta zeolite is synthesized without using an organic structure-directing agent and has titanium in the structural skeleton thereof, the Ti content being 0.10 mmol/g or higher. This beta zeolite preferably has an Si/Ti molar ratio of 20-200. Also, the Si/Al molar ratio is preferably 100 or higher.

Methods for cracking a hydrocarbon oil include contacting the hydrocarbon oil with a catalyst system in a fluidized catalytic cracking unit to produce light olefins and gasoline fuel. The catalyst system includes a FCC base catalyst and a catalyst additive. The FCC base catalyst includes a Y-zeolite. The catalyst additive includes a framework-substituted *BEA-type zeolite. The framework-substituted *BEA-type zeolite has a modified *BEA framework. The modified *BEA framework is a *BEA aluminosilicate framework modified by substituting a portion of framework aluminum atoms of the *BEA aluminosilicate framework with beta-zeolite Al-substitution atoms selected from titanium atoms, zirconium atoms, hafnium atoms, and combinations thereof. The FCC base catalyst may include a framework-substituted ultra-stable Y (USY)-zeolite as the Y-zeolite. The framework-substituted USY-zeolite has USY aluminosilicate framework modified by substituting a portion of framework aluminum atoms with titanium atoms, zirconium atoms, hafnium atoms, or combinations thereof.

An AFI-CHA hybrid crystal molecular sieve and an NH.sub.3—SCR catalyst using the AFI-CHA hybrid crystal molecular sieve as a carrier, and preparation methods thereof are disclosed. The AFI-CHA hybrid crystal molecular sieve includes an AFI-type SAPO-5 molecular sieve and a CHA-type SAPO-34 molecular sieve, with hybrid crystal grains of AFI and CHA. The hybrid crystal molecular sieve is synthesized by a hydrothermal synthesis method and can be obtained by changing the structure directing agent, the heating rate and the calcinating temperature in the preparation process. Further, copper is loaded on the basis of the hybrid crystal molecular sieve to prepare copper-based NH.sub.3—SCR catalyst and corresponding monolithic catalyst. The catalytic activity and hydrothermal stability of the catalyst are significantly improved by the hybrid crystal molecular sieve.

A family of crystalline aluminosilicate zeolites has been synthesized that is a layered pentasil zeolite. These zeolites are represented by the empirical formula:

M.sub.m.sup.n+R.sub.r.sup.p+Al.sub.1-xE.sub.xSi.sub.yO.sub.z

where M is an alkali, alkaline earth, or rare earth metal such as sodium or strontium, R can be a mixture of organoammonium cations and E is a framework element such as gallium, iron, boron, or indium. These zeolites are characterized by unique x-ray diffraction patterns and compositions and have catalytic properties for carrying out various hydrocarbon conversion processes.

A small crystal size, high surface area aluminogermanosilicate molecular sieve material, designated SSZ-120, is provided. SSZ-120 can be synthesized using 3,3′-[2,6-naphthalenebis(methylene)]bis[1,2-dimethyl-1H-imidazolium] dications as a structure directing agent. SSZ-120 may be used in organic compound conversion reactions and/or sorptive processes.
