Abstract

A method of inducing surface ensembles on a transition metal catalyst used in the conversion of a reactant gas or gas mixture, such as carbon monoxide and hydrogen into hydrocarbons (the Fischer-Tropsch reaction) is disclosed which comprises adding a Lewis base to the syngas (CO + H/sub 2/) mixture before reaction takes place. The formation of surface ensembles in this manner restricts the number and types of reaction pathways which will be utilized, thus greatly narrowing the product distribution and maximizing the efficiency of the Fischer-Tropsch reaction. Similarly, amines may also be produced by the conversion of reactant gas or gases, such as nitrogen, hydrogen, or hydrocarbon constituents.

Method and catalyst for removing contaminants from hydrocarbonaceous fluids using a copper-group via metal-alumina catalyst

Patent Oleck, S.M.; Le, Q.N.; Neuman, D.J.

A particulate catalyst is described for dearsenating and demetallizing a hydrocarbonaceous fluid consisting essentially of from about 38 to 46 weight percent CuO and 7 to 9 weight percent MoO/sub 3/ on a porous alumina support, wherein the total weight of the CuO and the MoO/sub 3/ are present in an amount ranging from about 20 to 75 weight percent, based on the total catalyst, the remainder of the catalyst being essentially alumina.
Method for producing hydrocarbon fuels from heavy polynuclear hydrocarbons by use of molten metal halide catalyst. [hydrocracking of heavy hydrocarbons entrained on zinc halide catalyst]

Patent Gorin, E.

A process is claimed for hydrocracking heavy polynuclear carbonaceous feedstocks to produce lighter hydrocarbon fuels by contacting the heavy feedstocks with hydrogen in the presence of a molten metal halide catalyst. At least a substantial portion of the carbonaceous material associated with the reaction mixture is separated from the spent molten metal halide and the metal halide catalyst is regenerated. An improvement comprises contacting the spent molten metal halide catalyst after removal of a major portion of the carbonaceous material therefrom with an additional quantity of hydrogen.
Method for preparing a group IVb, Vb or VIb metal oxide on inorganic refractory oxide support catalyst and the product prepared by said method

Patent Grenoble, D. C.; Kim, C. J.; Murrell, L. L.

An acid catalyst comprising a catalytic component selected from the group consisting of oxides of tungsten, niobium and mixtures thereof and tungsten or niobium oxides in combination with one or more additional metal oxides selected from the group consisting of tantalum oxide, hafnium oxide, chromium oxide, titanium oxide and zirconium oxide on an inorganic refractory oxide support is prepared by depositing by means known in the art a metal oxide precursor salt on an inorganic refractory metal oxide which is not itself an acid cracking catalyst or by intimately mixing a metal oxide precursor salt with a refractory metal oxidemore »« less
