Abstract

Abstract A process is provided for converting feedstock comprising C2+ olefins, C2-C7 paraffins or a mixture thereof to conversion product comprising C5+ hydrocarbon compounds over a catalyst composition prepared by compositing a high-silica zeolite having a Constraint Index of from 1 to 12 with binder, followed by treating the composite under conditions effective for increasing the catalytic activity of the composition.

Claim 1
Independent Claim 98 words
A process for converting a feedstock comprising C 2 + olefins, C 2 -C 7 paraffins or a mixture thereof to conversion product comprising C 5 + hydrocarbon compounds which comprises contacting said feedstock at conversion conditions sufficient to convert said feedstock to said product with a catalyst composition prepared by a method which comprises forming a composite of a crystalline zeolite having a silica:alumina mole ratio of at least 100:1 and a Constraint Index from 1 to 12, a binder comprising alumina, and water, and contacting the composite with steam to enhance the activity of the catalyst.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 98 words
A process for converting a feedstock comprising C 2 + olefins, C 2 -C 7 paraffins or a mixture thereof to conversion product comprising C 5 + hydrocarbon compounds which comprises contacting said feedstock at conversion conditions sufficient to convert said feedstock to said product with a catalyst composition prepared by a method which comprises forming a composite of a crystalline zeolite having a silica:alumina mole ratio of at least 100:1 and a Constraint Index from 1 to 12, a binder comprising alumina, and water, and contacting the composite with steam to enhance the activity of the catalyst.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 18 words
