Definitions
- This invention relates to a process for the manufacture of a zeolite, especially to one suitable for use as an absorbent or catalyst, to the zeolite produced by the process, and to organic reactions, especially oxidations of hydrocarbons, catalysed thereby.
- Zeolite Beta is a large pore, high silica zeolite material first described in 1967, in U.S. Patent No. 3308069. Because of its large pore size, based on 12- membered rings, it is useful as a catalyst for reactions involving larger organic molecules than can be accommodated in the pore of the more commonly used ZSM-5, 10-membered ring, zeolite catalysts.
- alkali metal cations in the synthesis mixture is, however, disadvantageous, especially when the zeolite is to be used as an acidic catalyst, since any necessary post-calcination treatment is made longer by the presence of substantial alkali metal concentrations.
- the present invention is based on the observation that if ethene is present in contact with a Beta-forming synthesis mixture during the hydrothermal treatment Beta zeolite is obtained in good yields.
- the present invention accordingly provides in a first aspect a process for the manufacture of a Beta zeolite in which at least a part of a hydrothermal treatment of a Beta zeolite-forming synthesis mixture is carried out under an ethene-containing atmosphere at a pressure of at least 20 bar and advantageously under an ethene partial pressure of at least 5 bar.
- the invention provides a process for the manufacture of a Beta zeolite in which at least a part of a hydrothermal treatment of a Beta zeolite forming synthesis mixture is carried out in the presence of at least 0.1 mole of ethene per mole of tetraethylammonium cations.
- the mole ratio of ethene:tetraethylammonium is in the range 0.1 to 1:1.
- Beta forming synthesis mixture there is typically used a mixture comprising a source of silicon, a source of aluminium, water, and a source of tetraethylammonium cations.
- the aluminium may, however, be replaced wholly or in part by other cations, for example gallium, boron, or iron.
- the synthesis mixture is advantageously substantially free from alkali metal cations; by substantially free is meant the absence of more alkali metal than is inevitably present in commercial supplies of the essential components. If alkali metal ions, e.g., sodium or potassium ions, are present, they are advantageously present in a molar proportion of Si ⁇ 2 :M + of 1: at most 0.5.
- alkali metal ions e.g., sodium or potassium ions
- the synthesis mixture has a molar composition within the following ranges:
- the Si:Al molar ratio is within the range of from 50 to 200:1.
- Preferred sources of the components are: for silicon, colloidal silica, advantageously a colloidal silica substantially free from alkali metal cations, or a tetraalkylammonium orthosilicate; and for aluminium, aluminium powder. If the aluminium is replaced by other cations, suitable sources are, for example; gallium nitrate or oxide, boric acid or an alkoxide thereof, e.g., B(OC 2 H 5 )3, or ferric nitrate. The tetraethyl ammonium cations are advantageously provided by TEAOH.
- hydrogen peroxide may be present in the synthesis mixture.
- the synthesis mixture is aged between its formation and the hydrothermal treatment.
- Ageing may be carried out at room temperature or at elevated temperatures, for example at from 60 to 90°C, advantageously about 70°C, the ageing time being from 2 to 24 hours, depending inversely on the temperature.
- a preferred ageing treatment comprises initial room temperature ageing for from 12 to 18 hours, followed by elevated temperature ageing, e.g., at 70°C, for from 2 to 4 hours.
- Elevated temperature ageing also causes evaporation of water from the synthesis mixture, thereby producing a synthesis gel of a concentration advantageous for hydrothermal treatment.
- the aged gel may be diluted before treatment, e.g., with ethanol. If ethanol is added, it is advantageously present in the synthesis mixture subjected to hydrothermal treatment in a proportion of at most 2 moles per mole of Si0 2 .
- the synthesis mixture preferably aged, is advantageously subjected to hydrothermal treatment at a temperature within the range of from 120°C to 200°C, preferably from 130°C to 150°C, under the pressure regime as indicated above, advantageously for a time in the range of from 1 hour to 30 days, preferably from 6 days to 15 days, until crystals are formed.
- Hydrothermal treatment is advantageously effected in an autoclave.
- a higher zeolite yield may be obtained or a lower proportion of tetraethylammonium ions may be included in the synthesis mixture.
- ethene is present in the reaction vessel from the commencement of the hydrothermal treatment.
- the ethene partial pressure is at least 5 bar, preferably at least 20 bar, and most preferably at least 30 bar, for at least a part of the period of hydrothermal treatment.
- the total pressure is at least 30 bar, and preferably at least 40 bar.
- the ethene partial pressure is at least 80%, preferably at least 90%, of the total pressure.
- the synthesis mixture is cooled, and the crystals are separated from the mother liquor, washed and dried.
- the resulting calcined product may either be used as such or subjected to further treatment e.g., by acid, for example, HCl, or by cation exchange, e.g., to introduce nickel.
- the product may be post-treated, as by steaming.
- the Beta zeolite produced by the process of the invention may be highly crystalline and has the typical Beta zeolite IR absorption bands at 575 and 525 cm -1 and X-ray diffraction spectrum.
- the zeolite produced according to the invention is useful as a catalyst in all reactions where an acidic catalyst is effective, especially in the production and conversion of organic compounds, for example cracking, hydrocracking, dewaxing, isomerization (including e.g., olefin bond isomerization and skeletal isomerization e.g., of butene) , oligomerization, polymerization, alkylation, dealkylation, hydrogenation, dehydrogenation, dehydration, cyclization and aromatization.
- the present invention therefore provides a process for the production or conversion of an organic compound comprising the use of a zeolite catalyst prepared in accordance with the invention.
- the zeolite can also be used (either as initially prepared or in a modified form) in a selective adsorption process e.g., a separation or purification.
- the following Example illustrates the invention.
- Example 1 256 g of distilled H 2 0 were cooled to 5°C, and 103 ml of H 2 0 2 (35 wt% in H 2 0) were added. The resulting solution was stirred for 3 hours at 5°C.
- the aluminium source 0.3859 g Al powder, and 366 g of the template, TEAOH (40% in H 0) , were combined in a beaker, covered to prevent evaporation, and heated at 80°C for 2 hours. After dissolution of aluminium, 183 ml of distilled water were added. The resulting solution was cooled to 5°C.
- the autoclave was kept at 140°C without agitation. After 11 days, pressure had risen to 50 bar. The crystals were separated from the mother liquor and washed by centrifugation at 13,000 rp . After drying at 60°C, the organic template was removed from the zeolite pores by calcination at 550°C in air for 12 hours.
