Abstract

Abstract Superior tolerance to catalyst coking is obtained with a catalytic composite comprising a gallium component and a crystalline aluminosilicate incorporated with a phorphorus containing alumina. A five-fold reduction in the coke content of the spent catalyst of the instant invention is observed which is directly attributable to the phosphorus containing alumina. A novel method of preparing this catalyst is presented, along with a novel process for the dehydrocyclodimerization of C2-C5 aliphatic hydrocarbons.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 43 words
A process for the dehydrocyclodimerization of hydrocarbons which comprises contacting a feed stream containing aliphatic hydrocarbons in the presence of a catalytic composition comprising phosphorus containing alumina, a gallium component, and crystalline aluminosilicate having a silica to alumina ratio of at least 12.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 43 words
A process for the dehydrocyclodimerization of hydrocarbons which comprises contacting a feed stream containing aliphatic hydrocarbons in the presence of a catalytic composition comprising phosphorus containing alumina, a gallium component, and crystalline aluminosilicate having a silica to alumina ratio of at least 12.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 18 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the aliphatic hydrocarbons have from 2 to 5 carbon atoms per molecule.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 55 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the dehydrocyclodimerization conditions comprise a temperature in the range from about 350° to about 650° C., a pressure from about 1 to 20 atm, a liquid hourly space velocity of from about 0.2 to 5 liquid volumes of said aliphatic hydrocarbons per hour per volume of said catalyst composition.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 28 words
