Abstract

CATALYST BASED ON GAMMA ALUMINA, AND ITS METHOD OF PREPARATION

Abstract Or the Disclosure A catalyst based on gamma alumina, constituted by gamma alumina stabilised by silica containing oxides of bivalent or trivalent metals chosen from those of Group II A and/or VIII and/or III B
and/or lanthanides.
The catalyst is particularly active in isomerisation reactions.

Description

32~

This invention relates to a catalyst based on gam~a alumin~, and its method of preparation.
Catalyst$ based on ga~na alumina are known, but they h~ve ~ coc high ac;dity for cer~ain reactions, and in pa~ticular for bond isomerisation reactions~
Moreover, the acidi~y i5 increased when the gamma alumina is treated with silica in orde to ma1te it thermally stable, for example in accordance wi~h the methods described in USA patents R.E. 30668, 4,013,590 and 4,0l3,589.
On the other hand~ s~abilisation by means of silica is necessary in order to make the alumina sui~able for high temperature regenera~ion without it losing its ac~ivity.
It has now been surprisingly found possible on the one hand to reduce lS the acidity of ga~a alumina-based catalysts in such a manner as to also make them sui~able for bond isomerisation xeactions, while on the o~her hand not reducing their the~al stability charaeteristics, by addine one or more oxides of the metals of Group II A and/or VIII
and/or III B and¦or lanthanides to the silica~stabilised gamma alumina ~omposition, The catalyst based on gam~a alumina ace~ding to the present inYen~iGr satisfies the general formula a Al203. b SiO2~ o MexOy where MexOy is the oxide of one or more of the metals of Groups II A
and/or ~III and/orIII B and~or lan~hanides, and a. h~ c are the number oE Moles of Al~03, SiO2 and Me Oy respectivelyg b and e bein~
related by ~he rela~ionship c ~ m.b ~ B
. .

~3~

where B has a value greater ~han or equal to 0.01 and b has a valuc be~ween 0.020 and 0.250, the ra~io (b~c)/a being bet~een 0.01 and 9~0, and m being a number between 0.7 and 0.1.
In the specific case oE calciump the moles of CaO are related to the S moles of SiO2 by the relationship Moles CaO >~ 0.500 x moles SiO2 ~ 0.030 In the case of barium, the moles of BaO are related t~ the mole~ of SiO2 by the relationship Moles BaO ~ 0~500 x moles SiO2 ~ 0.020 ; 10 In the case of lanthanu~ the moles of La203 are related to th~ mo]es of SiO~ by the relationship Moles La203 ~ 0.257 x moles SiO~ ~ 0.014 In the case of iron, the moles of Fe203 are related to ~he moles of SiO2 by the rela~ionship Moles Fe203 ~ 0.290 x moles SiO2 ~ 0.018 Xn these four particular cases, the moles oE SiO2 and the ratio (~*c)/a are as heretofore indicated.
The catalyst according to the present invention is particularly uséful in olefin bond isomeris~tion reactions, and in particular in the i~o-merisatior. of bueene-2 to bu~ene 1~
To prepare the catalyst accordin8 to the invention, the gamma alumina stabilise~ by any one of the procedures described in the aforesaid USA patents is Lmpregnated with aqueous s~lutions of salts of the metals of Groups II A and/or VIIl andlor III B and/or lanthanides3 preferably a~ueous solutions of nitrates or acetatesO
Some examples are given hereinafter in order to betSer illustrate the ~nvention, but these are not ~ be taken as lLmi~in~ ~hereof, E~AMPLE 1 !

20g o~ gamma alumina (S.A. 200 m2/g) are t~eated ~ith 15 cc of an alcohol solution containing 0.75 ~ of Dynasil ~ ~0 (solution of ethylene orthosilicate at 40%).
The mixture is allowed to react for two hours at 50 Cs it is then drained off and treated with steam in order to hydrolyse the silanol ~roups. It is dried and calcined at SOO C for 4 hours.
The material obtained in this ~lanne~, containing 1.5% of SiO2, is impregnated with 15 cc oE an aqueous solution con~a ~ing 5.90 g oi lanthanum nitrate.
The imprecnated material i.s then dried and calcined at 500C for 4 hours, A ma~erial is obtained constituted by gamma alurnina stabilised by l,S% of SiO2, and contai.ning 107~ oE La2O3.
This catalyst is fed into a reactor, in ~hich trans butene-2 i.s isomerised by reaction at a temperature of b~70 C9 atmospheric pressure and a weigh~ hour space velocity (I~HSV) of 6h 1, The catalyst is able to produce butene-l with an i.sobutene content of only 140 ppmJ
After thermal treatment for 24 hours at 1000 C, the catalyst has a surEaoe area of 113 m /g, and shows no loss of activi.ty after 40 reaction cycles ~332 hours in total) and 40 regeneration cycles (152 . hours in total).
The regeneration is carried ou~ at a temperature of 54~ C.

~5 Follo~ing the method described in Examp}e 1, a catalyst is prepared constituted by 1~5~o oE SiO2 ~ 2.5% of CaO on gamma alumina.
The calci~ll is impregnated usi.ng an aqueous solution (15 cc) of calcium nitrate (~-40 g)O

- l, -Dryin~ and calcining is again effected at 500 C for 4 hours.
The catalyst is fed into a reactor where trans butene-2 is isoraerised by reaction at a temperature of 470 C, atmospheric pressure and a ~eight hourly space v~locity (WHSV) of 6h The catalyst is able to produce butene-l with an isobutene content of only 150 ppm.
After thermal treatment for 24 hours at 1000 C, the catalyst has a surface area of 183 ra2/g~ and sho~s no loss of activity after 40 reaction cycles (332 hours in total) and 40 regeneration cycles (152 ho~rs n total)~
Regeneration is effected at a temperature of 540 C.
