Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
99 words
A method for converting a feed material selected from the group comprising methanol, dimethylether, and mixtures thereof to aliphatic and aromatic gasoline boiling components which comprises, passing the feed material at a temperature selected from within the range of 500° F to 1000° F and a pressure below 750 psig in contact with a special class of crystalline zeolite conversion catalysts represented by ZSM5 wherein the crystalline zeolite is used with a binder support material substantially free of aluminum oxide and, recovering an aromatic gasoline product of desired low durene concentration further controlled by using a low operating pressure.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
99 words
A method for converting a feed material selected from the group comprising methanol, dimethylether, and mixtures thereof to aliphatic and aromatic gasoline boiling components which comprises, passing the feed material at a temperature selected from within the range of 500° F to 1000° F and a pressure below 750 psig in contact with a special class of crystalline zeolite conversion catalysts represented by ZSM5 wherein the crystalline zeolite is used with a binder support material substantially free of aluminum oxide and, recovering an aromatic gasoline product of desired low durene concentration further controlled by using a low operating pressure.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
50 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the crystalline zeolite is supported by a binder or matrix material selected from the group consisting of a Group IVB metal oxide alone a Group IVB metal oxide combined with one of a Group IIB metal or a mixture of Group IVB metal oxides.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
17 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the matrix material comprises a mixture of titanium and zirconium oxides.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
15 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the feed material comprises a mixture of lower alcohols.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
21 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the catalyst comprises a mixture of ZSM5 crystalline zeolite and a titanium-zirconium oxide matrix material.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
21 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the catalyst comprises a mixture of ZSM5 crystalline zeolite and a zinc-titanium oxide matrix material.
