  • Patent number: 8202506
    Abstract: A porous, crystalline material is described having the framework structure of ZSM-12 and a composition involving the molar relationship: X2O3:(n)YO2 wherein X is a trivalent element, Y is a tetravalent element and n is less than about 45, e.g., less than about 40, wherein the average crystal size of the material is less than about 0.1 micron, which material is substantially free of impurities. The material is made by: (a) preparing a mixture capable of forming said material, said mixture comprising sources of alkali or alkaline earth metal (M), an oxide of trivalent element (X), an oxide of tetravalent element (Y), hydroxyl (OH?) ions, water, and an organic monoquaternary ammonium cation directing agent (R) and an organic diquaternary ammonium structure blocking agent (R?); (b) maintaining the mixture under sufficient conditions until crystals of said material are formed; and (c) recovering the crystalline material from step (ii). The material can be used as a hydrocarbon conversion process catalyst.

  • Patent number: 7902103
    Abstract: The invention relates to the use of particulate silicone resins in the absence of added organic solvents with particulate inorganic materials to form structured bodies and in particular molecular sieve containing structured bodies. The silicone resin is used in the form of a particulate with an average particle size of less than 700 um. Upon calcining, the silicone resin is converted to silica which acts as a binder.

  • Patent number: 7201838
    Abstract: Fischer-Tropsch hydrocarbon synthesis using a cobalt catalyst is used to produce waxy fuel and lubricant oil hydrocarbons from synthesis gas derived from natural gas. The waxy hydrocarbons are hydrodewaxed, with reduced conversion to lower boiling hydrocarbons, by contacting the waxy hydrocarbons, in the presence of hydrogen, with an unsulfided 10-ring, 1-dimensional zeolite catalyst that has been reduced and then treated by contacting it with the synthesized hydrocarbons containing one or more oxygenates, including indigenous oxygenate. Tail gas from the hydrodewaxing reactor can be used for the hydrocarbon synthesis.
