Effect of UV activation on acid and catalytic properties of zeolite-containing catalysts in conversion of gas-condensate straight-run gasolines to high-octane gasolines

Refining of associated petroleum gases C<inf>3</inf>-C<inf>4</inf> into liquid hydrocarbons on zeolite-containing catalyst base

“…During the last few decades, there has been a significant shortage of hydrocarbon raw sources in Russia and abroad, which has necessitated intensive research in the development of effective catalysts and efficient technological processes to produce low molecular olefines, aromatic hydrocarbons, engine fuels and other valuable products from alternative crude hydrocarbon sources: natural, APG, condensate gases, bio-spirits and others [1][2][3][4][5]. It should be noted that until recently it was a common practice to flare natural gas and APGs due to the lack of corresponding technological equipment for their utilization, transportation and refining.…”

Processing high-octane gasoline from gas condensate on zeolite-containing catalysts base

“…However, during the last decades, there has been a significant decrease in oil production both in Russia and abroad, which, in its turn, has targeted the intensive development of high-efficient refining technologies of alternative energy sources, such as natural and associated petroleum gas and gas condensates to low-molecular olefines, aromatic hydrocarbons, engine fuels and other valuable products. The topical problem is to create and develop environmental friendly and low-waste technological processes, using alternative hydrocarbon sources [1][2][3][4]. The increase in demand for engine fuels, current intensive imposing requirements of their application, use of alternative hydrocarbon sources predetermined further research in the development and production of high-octane gasoline.…”

Technological-economic evaluation of industrial ZCC and conversion of associated petroleum gases into aromatic hydrocarbons

“…The most promising catalysts for processing light hydrocarbons are high-silica MFI zeolites, which are highly active and selective in terms of dehydrogenation, isomerization, oligomerization, dehydrocyclization of various hydrocarbon types due to their unique microcellular structure and molecular selective properties [1][2][3][4][5][6].…”
