The invention relates to the production of aromatic hydrocarbon by the conversion of a feed comprising C.sub.2+ non-aromatic hydrocarbon, e.g., natural gas. The invention is particularly useful in converting natural gas to liquid-phase aromatic hydrocarbon, which can be more easily transported away from remote natural gas production facilities. The conversion is carried out in the presence of a dehydrocyclization catalyst comprising dehydrogenation and molecular sieve components. The dehydrocyclization catalyst has an average residence time of 90 seconds or less.

A method is disclosed making a molecular of TON framework type having unique properties. The method uses 1,3,4-trimethylimidazolium cations as a structure directing agent and a combined source of silicon and aluminum selected from alumina-coated silica and aluminosilicate zeolites. The obtained molecular sieve can be used in processes for dewaxing paraffinic hydrocarbon feedstocks.

The method includes preparing renewable feedstocks and introducing the renewable feedstocks as a reactant into a hydroprocessing reaction in the presence of a catalyst, in which the catalyst includes a metal and zeolite, and the zeolite is a one-dimensional 10 membered-ring (1D 10MR) zeolite. In addition, in the hydroprocessing reaction, the conversion of fractions having boiling points above an SAF boiling point range is lower than and equal to 50%.

Our invention relates to catalysts and their use in the synthesis and conversion of alpha-olefin-containing products, essentially alpha-olefins, primarily from paraffins of renewable origin, having a carbon number of 11-45, and mixtures thereof, which mixtures contain paraffins having a carbon number of 11-45. The main steps of the process are the heterogeneous catalytic dehydrogenation of paraffin with a new zeolite-supported catalyst based on Pt, Pd or Ni, and then the conversion of the resulting olefin-containing product mixture, containing mainly straight-chain internal monoolefins, to lower homologous alpha-olefinsnamely, the homogeneous or heterogeneous catalytic ethenolysis by using a ruthenium complex metathesis catalyst (i.e., metathesis using excess ethylene or ethylene metathesis), and/or tandem isomerization and metathesis reactions by using homogeneous or heterogenized homogeneous ruthenium complex metathesis catalyst in combination with a homogeneous or heterogeneous olefin isomerization catalyst (i.e., isomerization metathesis, hereinafter referred to as ISOMET), and/or tandem isomerization and ethylene metathesis by using a homogeneous or heterogenized homogeneous ruthenium complex metathesis catalyst in combination with homogeneous or heterogeneous olefin isomerization catalyst (i.e., isomerization ethylene metathesis, hereinafter referred to as ethylene ISOMET).

In one aspect, the disclosure relates to a method for depolymerizing plastics using radio frequency (RF) induction heating. The method can be conducted at low temperatures and does not require the addition of H.sub.2 or solvents. In one aspect, the method is tunable to produce commercially valuable C.sub.2-C.sub.20 compounds including, but not limited to, alkenes, cycloalkanes, cycloalkenes, hydrocarbon lubricants, and polymerizable monomers.
