Methods for producing multifunctional catalysts for upgrading pyrolysis oil
11027271 · 2021-06-08 · ·

A method of making a multifunctional catalyst for upgrading pyrolysis oil includes contacting a zeolite support with a solution including at least a first metal catalyst precursor and a second metal catalyst precursor, the first metal catalyst precursor, the second metal catalyst precursor, or both, including a heteropolyacid. Contacting the zeolite support with the solution deposits or adsorbs the first metal catalyst precursor and the second catalyst precursor onto outer surfaces and pore surfaces of the zeolite support to produce a multifunctional catalyst precursor. The method further includes removing excess solution from the multifunctional catalyst precursor and calcining the multifunctional catalyst precursor to produce the multifunctional catalyst comprising at least a first metal catalyst and a second metal catalyst deposited on the outer surfaces and pore surfaces of the zeolite support.

SYSTEM AND PROCESS FOR STEAM CRACKING AND PFO TREATMENT INTEGRATING SELECTIVE HYDROGENATION, SELECTIVE HYDROCRACKING AND NAPHTHA REFORMING
20210130717 · 2021-05-06 ·

A process for treatment of PFO from a steam cracking zone includes selectively hydrogenating PFO or a portion thereof for conversion of polyaromatics compounds contained in the PFO into aromatic compounds with one benzene ring to produce a selectively hydrogenated stream. The selectively hydrogenated stream is selectively hydrocracked for selective ring opening and dealkylation to produce a selectively hydrocracked BTX+ stream. In addition, a naphtha reformer is integrated, so that the selectively hydrocracked BTX+ stream and a reformate stream are separated into BTX compounds. Optionally the PFO is separated into a first stream containing C9+ aromatics compounds with one benzene ring, and a second stream containing C10+ aromatic compounds, whereby the first stream containing C9+ aromatics compounds with one benzene ring is passed to the selective hydrocracking step, and the feed to the selective hydrogenation step comprises all or a portion of the second stream containing C10+ aromatic compounds.

METHOD FOR ALCOHOL UPGRADING TO JET, DIESEL, GASOLINE, AND VALUABLE CO-PRODUCTS
20210130257 · 2021-05-06 ·

A method for converting an alcohol to a jet-diesel hydrocarbon fraction, comprising contacting the alcohol with a pillared two-dimensional zeolite catalyst at a temperature of at least 200 C. and up to 500 C. to convert the alcohol to hydrocarbons comprising: (a) a first mixed olefin fraction containing a mixture of C.sub.2-C.sub.5 olefins; (b) a first paraffin fraction containing C.sub.3-C.sub.5 paraffins; and (c) a gasoline fraction containing C.sub.6.sup.+ hydrocarbons; and the conversion of the alcohol is energy neutral or exothermic. The first mixed olefin fraction may be subjected to an oligomerization process to result in a second paraffin fraction containing C.sub.3-C.sub.6 paraffins along with a C.sub.7.sup.+ partially unsaturated fraction, and the first and second paraffin fractions combined into a total C.sub.3-C.sub.6 paraffin fraction, which can in turn be subjected to a dehydrogenation or aromatization process with hydrogen gas as byproduct, and the hydrogen gas recycled for use in producing the jet-diesel fraction.
