Patent number: 7410928Abstract: The instant invention is directed to the preparation of a catalyst composition suitable for the hydroconversion of heavy oils. The catalyst composition is prepared by a series of steps, involving mixing a Group VIB metal oxide particularly molybdenum oxide and aqueous ammonia to form an aqueous mixture, and sulfiding the mixture to form a slurry. The slurry is then promoted with a Group VIII metal. Subsequent steps involve mixing the slurry with a hydrocarbon oil and combining the resulting mixture with hydrogen gas and a second hydrocarbon oil having a lower viscosity than the first oil. An active catalyst composition is thereby formed.Type: GrantFiled: January 26, 2007Date of Patent: August 12, 2008Assignee: Chevron U.S.A. Inc.Inventors: Kaidong Chen, Pak C. Leung, Bruce E. Reynolds

Patent number: 6218326Abstract: An entirely new class of catalysts called supported molten-metal catalysts, SMMC, which can replace some of the existing precious metal catalysts used in the production of fuels, commodity chemicals, and fine chemicals, as well as in combating pollution. SMMC are based on supporting ultra-thin films or micro-droplets of the relatively low-melting (<600° C.), inexpensive, and abundant metals and semimetals from groups 1, 12, 13, 14, 15 and 16, of the periodic table, or their alloys and intermetallic compounds, on porous refractory supports, much like supported microcrystallites of the traditional solid metal catalysts. It thus provides orders of magnitude higher surface area than is obtainable in conventional reactors containing molten metals in pool form and also avoids corrosion. These have so far been the chief stumbling blocks in the application of molten metal catalysts.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 1998Date of Patent: April 17, 2001Assignee: University of Iowa Research FoundationInventors: Ravindra Datta, Ajeet Singh, Istvan Halasz, Manuela Serban

Patent number: 5340553Abstract: A method is provided for removing residual amounts of oxygen and water vapor from the controlled atmosphere of an enclosed chamber. A small volume of high-purity silicon is heated in a crucible placed inside the chamber. The silicon is typically heated with a power source separate from that used for heating the chamber and its primary contents. The heated silicon functions as an effective oxygen getter for removing residual oxygen and water vapor from the controlled atmosphere before and/or during a process conducted in the chamber. Heating the silicon to a molten state can induce beneficial convective stirring that keeps the silicon surface fresh for effective, efficient, and continuous capturing of oxygen.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 1993Date of Patent: August 23, 1994Assignee: Rockwell International CorporationInventor: James E.
