Definitions
- a typical steam cracker produces methane and hydrogen 18 percent, ethylene 32 percent, ethane 5 percent, propylene 18 percent, butadiene 5 percent, butylene 4 percent, and gasoline/fuel oil 18 percent (percent by weight of feed).
- catalyst compositions for steam cracking of hydrocarbons have been proposed. These compositions include combinations of zirconium oxide and one or more of a number of other oxides among which are oxides of the rare earth metals, antimony oxide, and inacv vtive oxides rich in magnesium oxide. Further oxides which might optionally be included in the catalyst composition in small amounts are iron oxide, aluminum ox ide, copper oxide, calcium oxide, barium oxide, silicium oxide, and titanium oxide. These catalysts are claimed to operate without carbon deposition at rather low space velocities.
- butadiene, and aromatics from saturated hydrocarbons which gives improved yield and thermal efficiencies while being capable of operating at high space velocity without significant carbon deposition on the catalyst.
- a process for the manufacture of unsaturated hydrocarbons by a gaseous catalytic reaction wherein a feedstock substantially comprising saturated hydrocarbons is contacted at a temperature below l,000C and a pressure of 0.1-50 atm.abs. in the presence of added steam with a catalyst comprising a major proportion of at least one oxide of zirconium or hafnium together with at least 5 percent of active aluminum oxide as well as at least 5 percent of at least one oxide of manganese, chromium or iron, and a small amount not exceeding l0 -percentof at least one compound of an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal.
- a catalyst for the manufacture of unsaturated hydrocarbons from saturated hydrocarbons in the presence of steam comprising a major proportion of at least one oxide of zirconium or hafnium, together with at least 5 percent of active aluminum oxide, as well as at least 5 percent of one oxide of manganese, chromium, or iron, and a small amount not exceeding 10 percent of at least one compound of an alkali metal or alkalineearth metal.
- the process is carried out at a temperature in the range 200"900"C, preferably in the range 500 850'C. it is also preferred to use pressures in the range 1-15 atm.abs. measured at the reactor outlet.
- the major component of the catalyst used in the A process according to the present invention is zirconium or hafnium oxide or both. This component should be present in an amount of at least 50 wt.% up to It should be noted that a catalyst substantially consisting of, for example, zirconium oxide is not very'practicable because such a catalyst does not possess adequate mechanical strength unless it is subjected to a heat treatment at high temperatures such as temperatures above l,000C. It has been found that the presence of active aluminum oxide in the catalyst composition facilitates its preparation so that a satisfactory strength can be obtained from a heat treatment at a temperature below l,000C.
- the reactive aluminum oxide is added during the preparation of the catalyst either as such or as a compound which on heating transforms into an active aluminum oxide such as for example precipitated aluminum hydroxide.
- the amount of active aluminum oxide is not very critical and an amount of at least 5 wt.% is satisfactory.
- the catalyst may contain up to 30 wt.% of active alumina, 10 wt.% being the preferred level.
- the catalyst used in the process accord ing to the present invention contains at least 5 wt.% up to about 40 wt.% of one or more of the oxides of manganese, chromium, or iron together with an alkali metal compound or an alkaline earth metal compound or both in a total amount of 0.1 to 10' wt.% calculated in the oxide. If an alkaline earth compound is present it ispreferred to have a compound of an alkali metal present also.
- the use of a potassium compound in an amount of 0.3 to 7 wt.% calculated as the oxide is especially preferred.
- Suitable saturated hydrocarbons include methane, ethane, propane, butane as well as liquid hydrocarbons such as light naphtha and even crude oil.
- Our process and catalyst readily tolerate the presence of sulphur which is even desirable since it can passivate the free metal surfaces in the reactor. The sulphur may -made on the equipment are accordingly reduced,
- the dried precipitate was mixed with 37 g graphite and 28 g cellulose fiber and ground for 6 hours in a ball mill, after which the mixture was tabletted. The tablets were then calcined for 2 hours at 850C.
- the resulting catalyst A had the following composition (percentages by weight):
- the resulting catalyst 13 had the following composition (by weight) 13% Al O 52% ZrO 27% MnO 8% K 0.
- the naphtha-water feed was first passed through a preheater and then through the reactor, the space velocity being 4.2 liq. vol./vol. catalyst/h.
- the feed passed downwards through the reactor, the temperature at the top of the catalyst bed being 590C and the tempera ture at the center and at the bottom of the bed being 750C.
- the reactor effluent was quenched by water injection in the reactor outlet and the composition of the effluent product gas determined on a gas-chromatograph. The results of these investigations are shown in the accompanying table I.
- Catalysts A, B, C, and D which are in accordance with the present invention, all gave an almost complete conversion of the hydrocarbon feed with about 1 percent or less unconverted hydrocarbon feed in the product.
- Catalyst E which is not in accordance with the present invention, gave a complete conversion right from the start, however, there was a gradual increase in unconverted hydrocarbon feed in the product, and after hours operation 20 percent of the hydrocarbon feed passed the catalyst almost unchanged.
- catalyst F which is in accordance with the present invention, the conversion was incomplete from the start, however, after a few hours operation the conversion became complete and during the remaining part of the experiment the amount of unconverted hydrocarbon feed in the product was insignificant.
- catalyst B was tested in a pilot plant reactor (Reactor Two) having a height of 6 m and an internal diameter of 0.09 m. A series of oilfired burners were provided to heat the reactor. To this reactor was fed a feed of 200 kg/h of naphtha of the same composition as before, together with 120 kg/h steam (i.e., a steam-naphtha ratio of 0.6).
- the inlet pressure was 7 kg/cm
- the outlet pressure 0.3 kg/cm
- the heat flux at the inner reactor wall was 80,000 Kcal/mlf
- Table II The results of investigations using 36 l of catalyst B in this reactor are shown in table II. Although a very high space velocity of 8.6 liq.vol./v0l.catalyst/h was used in this experiment only insignificant amounts of unconverted hydrocarbon feed appeared in the product, the liquid product consisting mainly of aromatics.
- reaction is carried out at a temperature in the range 3.
- reaction is carried out at a pressure of latm.abs. measuredat the reactor outlet. 7
- the feedstock consists entirely of a saturated hydrocarbon or a mixture of saturated hydrocarbons.
- a process for the manufacture of unsaturated hydrocarbons by a gaseous catalytic reaction wherein a feedstock substantially comprising saturated hydrocarbons is contacted at a temperature in the range 500850C and a pressure in the range l-15 atm.abs. measured at the reactor outlet in the presence of added steam with a catalyst comprising 50-80 wt.% zirconium and/or hafnium oxide, together with 5-30 wt.% active alumina,- as well as 5-40 wt.% of at least one oxide of chromium manganese and/or iron 'and 0.3-7.0 wt.% of at least one compound of an alkali metal and/or alkaline earth metal.
