  • Patent number: 11655158
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a novel staged-synthesis method for introduction of various metals in the structure of zeolite frameworks by isomorphous substitution. This new method is based on a hydrothermal synthesis in which the metal addition to the precursor suspensions (gel) is delayed. This so-called “staged-synthesis method” allows to obtain nanosized silanol highly homo-geneous crystalline zeolite structures with a control of the metal location.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 13, 2020
    Date of Patent: May 23, 2023
    Assignees: TOTALENERGIES ONETECH, CENTRE NATIONAL DE LA RECHERCHE SCIENTIFIQUE (CNRS)
    Inventors: Svetlana Mintova, Jean-Pierre Gilson, Nikolai Nesterenko, Delphine Minoux, Cindy Aquino, Julien Grand, Florent Dubray
  • Publication number: 20220371904
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a novel method for introducing various metals in the structure of zeolite frameworks by isomorphous substitution. This new method is based on a hydrothermal reaction of the metal with the zeolite. This method allows obtaining zeolite with a structure and with control of the metal location.
    Type: Application

  • Patent number: 11498890
    Abstract: Process for the conversion of non-oxidative coupling of methane to ethylene, under non-oxidative conditions, comprising: providing a first stream containing at least 50 vol. % of methane based on the total volume of said first stream; providing a catalyst; putting in contact said first stream with said catalyst at a weight hour space velocity ranging from 0.5 to 100 h?1, a temperature ranging from 500° C. to 1100° C. and a pressure ranging from 0.1 MPa to 5 Mpa in the absence of oxygen; recovering a second stream containing unconverted methane if any, ethylene and hydrocarbons having at least 2 carbon atoms. Said process is remarkable in that said catalyst is a synthetic zeolite material, containing at least one metal M with silicon to metal M molar ratio Si/M as determined by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry ranging from 100 to 65440 and in that said metal M is incorporated inside of the zeolite tetrahedral sites.
