A catalyst may include a metallic function derived from a metal constrained within cages and/or channels of a microporous material, wherein the cages and/or channels of the microporous material are defined by 8 tetrahedral atoms or fewer; and an acidic function derived from an additional zeolite having cages and/or channels defined by 10 or more tetrahedral atoms, wherein the microporous material providing the metallic function and additional zeolite providing the acidic function are coupled by a binder.

A process and catalyst are provided for the non-oxidative dehydrogenation of propane for the production of propylene as petrochemical building blocks. The process provides a direct single-step gas-phase dehydration of propane mixed with nitrogen in the presence and absence of steam/hydrogen over supported bimetallic alumina-silicates zeolites. The catalyst contains no precious metal entities and may contain one metal from group VIB in combination with another metal from group IIIA or IVA supported on FAU, MFI, KFI, BEA type alumina-silicates zeolites. The process provides a propane conversion of 18% to 52% with a propylene yield of 10% to 25%.

The beta-type zeolite of the invention has a substantially octahedral shape, has a Si/Al ratio of 5 or more, and is a proton-type zeolite. The Si/Al ratio is preferably 40 or more. This beta-type zeolite is preferably obtained by transforming a raw material beta-type zeolite synthesized without using a structure directing agent into an ammonium-type zeolite through ion exchange, then, exposing the beta-type zeolite to water vapor, and subjecting the exposed beta-type zeolite to an acid treatment.

A phosphorus-containing or phosphorus-modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve is characterized in that in its 27Al MAS-NMR, the ratio of peak area for the resonance signal having a chemical shift of 39±3 ppm to peak area for the resonance signal having a chemical shift of 54 ppm±3 ppm is ≥1; or in its surface XPS elemental analysis, the value of n1/n2 is ≤0.1. n1 represents the mole number of phosphorus, n2 represents the total mole number of silicon and aluminum. A cracking auxiliary or cracking catalyst contains the phosphorus-containing/phosphorus-modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve can be made using the phosphorus-containing or phosphorus-modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve.

The present invention provides a method of preparing a supported catalyst, preferably a hydrocracking catalyst, the method at least comprising the steps of: a) providing a zeolite Y having a bulk silica to alumina ratio (SAR) of at least 10; b) mixing the zeolite Y provided in step a) with a base, water and a surfactant, thereby obtaining a slurry of the zeolite Y; c) reducing the water content of the slurry obtained in step b) thereby obtaining solids with reduced water content, wherein the reducing of the water content in step c) involves the addition of a binder; d) shaping the solids with reduced water content obtained in step c) thereby obtaining a shaped catalyst carrier; e) calcining the shaped catalyst carrier obtained in step d) at a temperature above 300° C. in the presence of the surfactant of step b), thereby obtaining a calcined catalyst carrier; f) impregnating the catalyst carrier calcined in step e) with a hydrogenation component thereby obtaining a supported catalyst; wherein no heat treatment at a temperature of above 500° C. takes place between the mixing of step b) and the shaping of step d).

The application provides a catalyst for producing ethylene and propylene from methanol and/or dimethyl ether, and a preparation and application thereof. In the present application, a molecular sieve catalyst co-modified by rare earth metals and silanization is utilized. First, the material containing methanol and/or dimethyl ether reacts on the catalyst to generate hydrocarbons. The hydrocarbons are separated into a C.sub.1-C.sub.5 component and a C.sub.6.sup.+ component. Then the C.sub.6.sup.+ component is recycled to the feeding port and fed into the reactor after mixing with methanol and/or dimethyl ether. The above steps are repeated, to finally generate C.sub.1-C.sub.5 products, in which the selectivity for ethylene and propylene can reach more than 90 wt % in the C.sub.1-C.sub.5 component, so that the maximal yield can be achieved in the production of ethylene and propylene from methanol and/or dimethyl ether.
