A process is presented for the removal of contaminants like sulfur compounds from hydrocarbons. The sulfur compounds are removed from hydrocarbons that may be a feed to cracking units. A feed stream is treated with a clinoptilolite or a barium exchanged zeolite adsorbent to effectively remove carbon disulfides from the feed hydrocarbon. The adsorbent may be regenerated by a hydrogen stream, a hydrocarbon stream or a mixture thereof.

One exemplary embodiment can be a process for producing a chemical feedstock. The process can include passing a feed to a hydrotreatment zone, passing an effluent from the hydrotreatment zone to a fractionation zone, passing a stream including one or more C5-C25 hydrocarbons from the fractionation zone to a fluid catalytic cracking zone to obtain an another stream including one or more C6-C10 hydrocarbons, and passing the another stream to an adsorption zone for removing at least one heteroatom compound having a sulfur or a nitrogen atom.

A method is disclosed for synthesizing MTW framework type zeolites via interzeolite transformation in the presence of polyethyleneimine.

A DLM-1 molecular sieve, a process for preparing the molecular sieve, and use thereof in treating an organic substance are provided. The DLM-1 molecular sieve is an Al-SBA-15 molecular sieve, and has a schematic chemical composition as represented by the formula first oxide*second oxide. The first oxide is silica, the second oxide is alumina, and the content by mass percent of alumina in the schematic chemical composition is 2% to 85%. The DLM-1 molecular sieve is suitable for the hydrodenitrogenation reaction of heavy distillate oil, and is favorable for improving the hydrodenitrogenation activity.

Systems and methods for the separation of classes of paraffins from a hydrocarbon sample can include a first column comprising a first zeolite adsorbent material for the isolation of one or more n-paraffins from the hydrocarbon sample and generation of a first eluate including one or more iso-paraffins and one or more one-ring or multi-ring naphthenes. The system can further include a second column, coupled to the first column, comprising a second zeolite adsorbent material for the isolation of one or more iso-paraffins or one-ring naphthenes from the first eluate and generation of a second eluate including one or more multi-ring naphthenes.

One exemplary embodiment can be a process for treating a hydroprocessing fraction. The process can include obtaining a bottom stream from a fractionation zone, and passing at least a portion of the bottom stream to a film generating evaporator zone for separating a first stream containing less heavy polynuclear aromatic compounds than a second stream.

A new crystalline aluminosilicate zeolite comprising a MTT framework has been synthesized that has been designated UZM-53. This zeolite is represented by the empirical formula:

M.sup.+.sub.mR.sub.rAl.sub.1xE.sub.xSi.sub.yO.sub.z

where M represents sodium, potassium or a combination of sodium and potassium cations, R is the organic structure directing agent or agents derived from reactants R1 and R2 where R1 is diisopropanolamine and R2 is a chelating diamine, and E is an element selected from the group consisting of gallium, iron, boron and mixtures thereof. Catalysts made from UZM-53 have utility in various hydrocarbon conversion reactions such as oligomerization.
