  • Patent number: 4582949
    Abstract: This invention relates to a two-stage conversion of olefins into aromatic hydrocarbon mixtures by contacting them in the first stage with a crystalline metal silicate and in the second stage with a crystalline gallium silicate.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 17, 1985
    Date of Patent: April 15, 1986
    Assignee: Shell Oil Company
    Inventor: Eduard P. Kieffer
  • Patent number: 4579988
    Abstract: A process is disclosed for converting C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 paraffins into aromatic gasoline over a crystalline gallium silicate having a SiO.sub.2 /Ga.sub.2 O.sub.3 molar ratio between 25 and 250, which silicate has been subjected once or several times to a two-stage treatment comprising reduction at a temperature of 400.degree.-650.degree. C. and oxidation at a temperature of 350.degree.-700.degree. C. Optionally the gallium silicate is subjected to precalcining at a temperature of 600.degree.-1000.degree. C., the number of times of the two-stage treatment being determined by the fact whether or not said gallium silicates have been subjected to such precalcination.
