Abstract

Abstract A combination operation is described and method for upgrading C2-C5 olefin rich streams with selective crystalline zeolite compositions in a fluidized catalyst system at relatively low pressures by reaction with hydrogen or a carbon-hydrogen fragment contributor, such as methanol, to form gasoline and light fuel oil boiling range products.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 166 words
A method for upgrading hydrocarbons which comprises converting a gas oil boiling range hydrocarbon material combined with methanol by contact with a ZSM-5 type zeolite and faujasite as a suspension in a first riser conversion zone at a temperature within the range of 960° F to about 1200° F, separating the product of said first riser conversion zone to recover a stream comprising C 2 -C 5 olefins from higher boiling components comprising gasoline, heavy naphtha, light cycle oil and heavy cycle oil, converting C 2 -C 5 light olefins combined with methanol by contact with a ZSM-5 type zeolite and faujasite catalyst as a suspension in a second riser conversion zone at a temperature in the range of 500° to about 900° F and a contact time of 1 to 30 seconds, separating the products of said second conversion zone in the presence of the products from the first conversion zone, recycling separated light olefins and separated methanol to at least said second conversion zone.
