Embodiment 1

[0061] Alumina spheres were prepared using the well-known oil bath drop method described in US-A-2,620,314, which is incorporated herein by reference. The method includes forming an aluminum sol by dissolving aluminum in hydrochloric acid. Hexamethylenetetramine was added to the sol so that the sol gelled into a spherical shape when dispersed as droplets in an oil bath maintained at 93°C. The droplets were kept in the oil bath until they solidified to form hydrogel spheres. After the balls were removed from the hot oil, they were pressure-aged at 135°C, washed with dilute ammonium hydroxide solution, dried at 110°C and calcined at 650°C for about 2 hours to obtain γ-alumina balls. At this time, the calcined alumina is crushed into fine powder with a particle size of 200 microns or less.

[0062] Then, by adding 258 g of aluminum sol (20 wt % Al 2 O 3 ) and 6.5 g of a 50% aqueous solution of tin chloride and 464 g of deionized water and stirred to uniformly disperse the tin...

Embodiment 2

[0066] The procedure of Example 1 was repeated except that: a slurry was prepared by mixing 275 g of alumina sol into 431 g of deionized water with sufficient stirring, followed by addition of 289 g of gamma-alumina powder and using 5.36 g of tin chloride in 50% water solution , and after granulation and coating, the outer layer thickness of the layered spherical support was 99 μm. After coating, 248 g of slurry remained. Elemental analysis (wt % based on the entire catalyst) indicated that the catalyst contained 0.09 wt % platinum, 0.09 wt % tin and 0.23 wt % lithium. This catalyst is designated Catalyst B. Analysis of Catalyst B by EPMA showed that the platinum was only uniformly distributed throughout the outer layer.

Embodiment 3

[0072] A gamma-alumina slurry (1000 g) was prepared as in Example 1, except that no tin chloride was added to the slurry. This slurry was coated on 1000 g of alpha-alumina cores having a diameter of 1.054 mm as in Example 1 and calcined as in Example 1, resulting in a layered support with an outer layer of gamma-alumina with a thickness of 74 microns.

[0073] By diluting 50% tin chloride solution (Sn content: 0.144 g based on metal) and nitric acid (HNO) with deionized water 3 Content: 18.2 g) to a volume of 150 ml to obtain an aqueous solution, the above support (202 g) was brought into contact with the above aqueous solution, the mixture was dried in a rotary evaporator at a temperature of 150 °C for 2 hours, followed by calcination at a temperature of 615 °C 4 hours.

[0074] At this point, the tin-containing layered composition described in the previous paragraph was contacted with an aqueous solution containing chloroplatinic acid (Pt = 0.188 g), lithium nitrate (Li = 0...

Abstract

This invention relates to a layered catalyst composition, a process for preparing the composition and processes for using the composition. The catalyst composition comprises an inner core such as alpha-alumina, and an outer layer bonded to the inner core composed of an outer refractory inorganic oxide usch as gamma-alumina. The outer layer optionally has uniformly dispersed thereon a platinum group metal such as platinum and a promoter metal such as tin. The composition also optionally contains a modifier metal such as lithium. The catalyst composition shows improved durability and selectively for dehydrogenating hydrocarbons.

Description

background of invention [0001] The hydrocarbon conversion process is carried out with a catalyst comprising a zeolite and a support containing catalytic components. Platinum-based catalysts with or without cocatalysts and modifiers are commonly used. One such hydrocarbon conversion process is the dehydrogenation of hydrocarbons, particularly alkanes, such as the dehydrogenation of isobutane to isobutene. For example, US-A-3,878,131 (and related US-A-3,632,503 and US-A-3,755,481) disclose a catalyst comprising platinum metal, a tin oxide component and a germanium oxide component. All components are uniformly dispersed throughout the alumina support. US-A-3,761,531 (and related US-A-3,682,838) discloses a compound comprising a platinum group metal component, a Group IVA metal component (eg germanium), a Group VA metal component (eg arsenic, antimony) and A catalytic composition of alkali metal or alkaline earth metal components, all uniformly dispersed on an alumina support m...
