AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

For example, amorphous binders degrade the adsorptive properties of zeolite agglomerates since binder amounts are typically as high as about 60% by weight of the bound catalyst.
Furthermore, because bound zeolites are prepared by extrusion or other shaping of the zeolite with the amorphous binder followed by drying and firing the extrudate, the amorphous binder can penetrate into the pores of the zeolite or block the Zeolite pores, or slowing the rate of mass transfer into and out of the pores of zeolites, which can reduce the effectiveness of zeolites when used in hydrocarbon conversion processes and other applications
In addition, when bound zeolites are used in catalytic conversion processes, the amorphous binder may interfere with the chemical reactions taking place in the zeolite, and may itself catalyze undesired reactions, resulting in the formation of undesired products

[0121] Dissolve components 2 and 3 in component 4 and stir until a clear solution is obtained. The template used in the transformation, tert-butylammonium bromide, was specifically chosen in order to transform the amorphous silica into the MEL structure type. Component 1 was then added to the solution. Then the synthesis mixture was placed in a stainless steel autoclave and heated at 150° C. for 20 hours (heating time was 2 hours). The molar composition of the synthesis mixture is:

[0122] 0.47 Na 2 O / 0.95TBABr / 10SiO 2 / 209.5H 2 o

Embodiment 3

[0129] A zeolite-bound zeolite prepared as in Example 1 was used for toluene disproportionation.

[0130]1 gram of zeolite-bound zeolite was mixed with 1 gram of 80-100 mesh ultrapure quartz sand before loading into the stainless steel reactor. The catalyst was pretreated with hydrogen at 500°C for 2 hours, followed by co-feeding with toluene and hydrogen. The total pressure of the reaction was controlled at 45 psig. The partial pressure of the toluene feed was 5.4 psig and the partial pressure of hydrogen was 54 psig. The toluene flow rate was 36.7 mmol / h. The hydrogen flow was controlled with a Brook mass flow controller and the toluene feed was pumped by a high pressure liquid pump. The experiments were performed in a differential state so that the reaction rate could be measured. All products were analyzed by on-line HP6890GC gas chromatography, equipped with Chirasil DEX CP and DBI columns.

Embodiment 4

[0132] To compare the performance of zeolite-bound zeolite catalysts, HZSM-5 catalyst and HZSM-22 catalyst were used for toluene disproportionation, respectively. The HZSM-5 catalyst has a silica / alumina molar ratio of 34 and contains crystals with a particle size of 0.2-1.0 microns. The HZSM-22 catalyst has a silica / alumina molar ratio of 63 and contains crystals with an average length of 1 micron. The test was carried out as described in Example 2, except that each catalyst was mixed with 2.5 grams of 80-100 mesh ultrapure quartz sand prior to loading into the stainless steel reactor to improve feed-catalyst contact.

[0133] image 3 The graph compares the reaction rate as a function of temperature for the zeolite-bound zeolite catalyst, the HZSM-5 catalyst, and the HZSM-22 catalyst, showing a comparison of the performance of the three catalysts. It is clear from the figure that the zeolite-bound zeolite catalyst is about 10 times more active than the HZSM-22 and HZSM-5 c...

Abstract

A zeolite-bound zeolite catalyst free of substantial amounts of non-zeolite binders, which can be tailored to optimize performance, and a hydrocarbon conversion process using the zeolite-bound zeolite catalyst are provided. The zeolite-bound zeolite catalyst comprises a core crystal of a first crystal of a first zeolite and optionally a second crystal of a second zeolite different in composition or structure type or both from said first zeolite and Binder crystals comprising third crystals of a third zeolite and optionally fourth crystals of a fourth zeolite different in composition or structure type or both from said third zeolite. If the core crystals do not contain the second crystals of the second zeolite, the binder crystals must contain the fourth crystals of the fourth zeolite. Zeolite-bound zeolite catalysts are suitable for various hydrocarbon conversion processes such as cracking, alkylation, toluene disproportionation, isomerization and transalkylation reactions.
