  • Patent number: 11229899
    Abstract: A catalyst composition comprising (a) carrier comprising (i) 5 to 95 wt % mordenite type zeolite having a mean crystallite length parallel to the direction of the 12-ring channels of 60 nm or less and a mesopore volume of at least 0.10 cc/gram, (ii) 5 to 95 wt % ZSM-5 type zeolite; and (iii) 10 to 60 wt % inorganic binder; and (b) 0.001 to 10 wt % of one or more catalytically active metals, wherein the inorganic binder comprises titania, its preparation and its use in alkylaromatic conversion.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 7, 2017
    Date of Patent: January 25, 2022
    Assignee: SHELL OIL COMPANY
    Inventors: Hong-Xin Li, Richard Berend Mauer, Gisela Sabater Pujadas
  • Patent number: 10722873
    Abstract: The invention relates to a catalyst composition which comprises a carrier material component and at least one metal component that is supported on the carrier material component. The carrier material component comprises a ZSM-12 type zeolite, a EU-1 type zeolite, and an inorganic binder. The metal component may include a Group VIII metal. The invention further relates to a process for preparing the catalyst and using it in a process for the isomerisation of alkylaromatics.
    Type: Grant
