The present invention relates to a catalyst for isomerization of alkylated aromatics such as mixed xylenes, using xylene isomerization catalyst particles including post-framework modified USY zeolite in which zirconium atoms and/or titanium atoms and/or hafnium atoms form a part of a framework of an ultra-stable Y-type zeolite.

A catalyst structure includes a porous support structure, where the support structure includes an aluminosilicate material. Any two or more metals are loaded in the porous support structure, the two or more metals selected from the group consisting of Ga, Ag, Mo, Zn, Co and Ce, where each metal loaded in the porous support structure is present in an amount from about 0.1 wt % to about 20 wt %. In example embodiments, the catalyst structure includes three or more of the metals loaded in the porous support structure. The catalyst structure is used in a hydrocarbon upgrading process that is conducted in the presence of methane, nitrogen or hydrogen.

The present invention relates to the catalytic processes for rendering harmless the flue gases of the power stations or more precisely to the catalysts for sulfur oxides reduction to elemental sulfur. The novel catalyst presents the binary polycations of copper and zinc or copper and manganese incorporated into the low silica faujasite X (LSX) having transition metals ratio Cu:Zn or Cu:Mn in the range of 2:1 to 4:1.

The processes and systems herein integrate hydroprocessing and coking in a manner to effectively upgrade/desulfurize crude oil feedstocks. An initial liquid hydrocarbon feedstock, such as crude oil, is upgraded by fractionating both the hydrocarbon feedstock and coker thermally cracked hydrocarbon products in a fractionating zone. A coker recycle stream is thermally cracked to produce coker thermally cracked hydrocarbon products that are passed to the fractionating zone. The hydrocarbon distillates are hydroprocessed under conditions effective for desulfurization and conversion into lighter hydrocarbon distillates to produce a hydroprocessed liquid hydrocarbon effluent, such as a bottomless synthetic crude oil.

A method including subjecting an ultra-stable Y-type zeolite having a low silica-to-alumina molar ratio (SAR), such as in a range of 3 to 6, to acid treatment and heteroatom incorporation contemporaneously to give a framework-modified ultra-stable Y-type zeolite.

An aspect of the present disclosure relates to a process for preparing a composite hydroalkylation catalyst including: (a) effecting impregnation of a hydrogenation metal on an inorganic oxide to form a metal impregnated inorganic oxide; (b) effecting calcination of the metal impregnated inorganic oxide to obtain a calcined metal impregnated inorganic oxide; (c) preparing a composite mixture comprising a molecular sieve, the calcined metal impregnated inorganic oxide and a binder; (d) preparing an extruded catalyst; and (e) effecting calcination of the extruded catalyst to obtain the composite hydroalkylation catalyst. The composite hydroalkylation catalyst prepared using this process affords dramatic improvement in conversion of mononuclear aromatic hydrocarbon and the yield of the hydroalkyled mononuclear aromatic hydrocarbon (e.g. CHB).
