Abstract

Various zeolites for preparing an active heterogeneous catalyst for the commercial alkylate production process were studied. NaX zeolites produced by Russian catalyst plants (powdered, granulated without binders, and formed with binders) were used in the experiments. The zeolites were converted to the active form by successive ion exchange with aqueous solutions of calcium, lanthanum, and ammonium salts at 140°C in a rotating autoclave. Isobutane alkylation with butylenes was performed on a flow-through laboratory installation in a fixed-catalyst-bed reactor. Comparative analysis of the physicochemical (crystal structure, acidity, mechanical strength) and catalytic (conversion of butylenes, alkylate yield, selectivity) properties of the synthesized catalysts in the CaLaHX form was performed. With respect to the set of the properties, the sample based on the NaX-ch catalyst and formed with a binder (clay) is the best catalyst. It exhibits good strength, high acidity, and high activity (conversion of butylenes 100 wt % , alkylate yields based on butylenes in the feed 99 wt % , selectivity with respect to trimethylpentanes 77.1 wt % ).
