- WHSV weight hourly space velocity
- Figure 1 shows the catalytic properties of the spherical catalysts according to the invention in comparison with catalysts in the form of extrudates.
- the reported values for the primary crystallites are the average dimensions (arithmetic mean of the largest and the smallest dimension, averaged over a plurality of crystallites, preferably at least 25 crystallites are used). These values are measured using a LEO Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (LEO Electron Microscopy Inc., USA) using powder samples of the
- Catalyst which had previously been redispersed in acetone, ultrasonicated for 30 seconds and then applied to a support (Sample Current Range: 4 pA to 10 nA).
- the measurement usually at 20000x magnification (magnifications of 80,000 or even 10,000 are also suitable). The values could be confirmed at 253,000 times magnification.
- the pore diameter results from the mercury porosimetry
- the pore volume is determined using the
- a catalyst was prepared according to Example 1 of EP 1 424 128 with an average diameter of the primary crystallites of about 0.03 ⁇ m (Si / Al ratio 105). The process and the physical and chemical properties of the product specified therein are expressly incorporated by reference into the present specification.
- aluminosilicate zeolites having a primary crystallite size of ⁇ 1 ⁇ m were produced.
- the catalysts were prepared with the addition of alumina as a binder.
- a reaction mixture was prepared by intimately mixing two solutions at room temperature in a 40 liter autoclave.
- the two solutions were designated solution A and solution B.
- Solution A was prepared by dissolving 2218 g of TPABr in 11 kg of deionized water. In this solution, 5000 g of a commercial silica were added.
- Solution B was prepared by dissolving 766 g of NaOH and then 45.6 g of NaAlO 2 in 5.5 liters of deionized water. The still warm solution B was added to solution A.
- the autoclave was then closed and stirred at about 60 rpm. immediately brought to the reaction temperature. The reaction was stopped as soon as the average diameter of the primary crystallites was 0.03 ⁇ m.
- the filter cake was slurried in about 40 liters of deionized water, added with about 5 liters of a 0.4 wt% aqueous suspension of a commercially available flocculant, and decanted after stirring and settling the pre-agglomerates of the solid.
- the described washing process was repeated until the wash water had a pH of 7 to 8 and a Br concentration of less than 1 ppm.
- Filter cake was then dried at 120 ° C for 12 hours.
- the dried filter cake was comminuted with a commercial granulator to a grain size of 2 mm.
- the granules were brought at a heating rate of 1 ° C / min under nitrogen (1000 Nl / h) to 350 ° C and calcined at 350 ° C for 15 hours under nitrogen (1000 Nl / h). Then, the temperature was raised to 540 ° C at a heating rate of 1 ° C / min, and the granules were calcined in air at this temperature for 24 hours to burn off the remaining template.
- the calcined Na zeolite was suspended in a 5-fold amount of a 1-molar HCI aqueous solution and brought to 80 °. At this Temperature was stirred for one hour. Then, about 1 liter of a 0.4% by weight suspension of the flocculant was added and the supernatant was decanted off after the solid had settled. The process thus described was repeated once more.
- the solid was suspended in about 10 washings in 60 liters of deionized water with stirring and mixed with an average of 100 ml of a 0.4 wt .-% suspension of the flocculant. After the zeolite had settled, the supernatant solution was decanted. When the content of CI " in the washing water ⁇ was 5 ppm, the suspension was filtered off and dried at 120 ° C for 15 hours.
- the dried H-zeolite was crushed with a commercial granulator to 2 mm and placed under air at a heating rate of 1 ° C / min to 540 ° C and calcined at this temperature under air for 10 hours.
- This mixture was kneaded for about 30 minutes until plating and extruded in a commercial extruder into cylindrical shaped articles having a diameter of about 1.5 mm and a length of about 3 mm.
- the final calcination was carried out at 650 ° C for 3 hours.
- Example B The composition of the cylindrical extrudate of Comparative Example A is shown in Table I.

- Gas phase and liquid phase at the outlet of the CMO catalyst reactor were determined by the usual gas chromatographic analysis method.
- the catalysts (also the catalyst according to the invention) can be regenerated after completion of a first cycle by first stopping the MeOH flow. Nitrogen is then fed to displace residual MeOH. Finally, oxygen is slowly added to the nitrogen in gradually increasing concentrations to burn off the hydrocarbon deposited on the catalysts. The regeneration of the catalysts is complete when the oxygen content of the nitrogen stream at the inlet and outlet of the catalyst bed is the same.
