20150126782 | Process for Producing Cyclohexylbenzene - In a process for producing cyclohexylbenzene, hydrogen, and benzene are contacted in a first reaction zone under conditions effective to produce a product effluent containing residual benzene in the vapor phase and cyclohexylbenzene in the liquid phase. The product effluent is separated into a first stream that is rich in residual benzene in the vapor phase as compared to the product effluent and a second stream that is rich in cyclohexylbenzene in the liquid phase as compared to the product effluent. At least a portion of the first stream is cooled to condense at least a portion of the residual benzene in the vapor phase to the liquid phase and produce a condensate stream. At least a portion of the condensate stream is recycled to the first reaction zone. | 05-07-2015 |
20140371498 | Process of Producing Cyclohexylbenzene - In a process for producing cyclohexylbenzene, benzene is contacted with hydrogen under hydroalkylation conditions effective to form a first effluent stream comprising cyclohexylbenzene, cyclohexane, methylcyclopentane, and unreacted benzene. At least a portion of the first effluent stream is contacted with a dehydrogenation catalyst under dehydrogenation conditions to convert at least a portion of the cyclohexane to benzene thereby forming a second effluent stream. The amount of methylcyclopentane in the second effluent stream is different by no more than 65% of the total amount of the portion of the first effluent stream, said amounts being on a weight basis. A methylcyclopentane-containing stream is removed from either the first or the second effluent stream and at least a portion of the second effluent stream containing benzene is recycled to the hydroalkylation step. | 12-18-2014 |
20140336394 | EMM-23 Molecular Sieve Materials, Its Synthesis and Use - A new molecular sieve material is designated as EMM-23 and has, in its as-calcined form, an X-ray diffraction pattern including the following peaks in Table 1: | 11-13-2014 |
20140234207 | MCM-56 Manufacture - The present invention provides an improved method for manufacturing high quality porous crystalline MCM-56 material. It also relates to the MCM-56 material manufactured by the improved method, catalyst compositions comprising same and use thereof in a process for catalytic conversion of hydrocarbon compounds. One such conversion process involves production of monoalkylated aromatic compounds, particularly ethylbenzene and cumene, by the liquid or partial liquid phase alkylation of alkylatable aromatic compound, particularly benzene. | 08-21-2014 |
20130225866 | Processes for Producing Phenol - Disclosed herein are processes for producing phenol. The processes include oxidizing cyclohexylbenzene to produce an oxidation composition comprising cyclohexyl-1-phenyl-1-hydroperoxide. The cyclohexyl-1-phenyl-1-hydroperoxide in the oxidation composition may undergo a cleavage reaction to produce a cleavage reaction mixture comprising phenol, cyclohexanone and at least one contaminant. The cleavage reaction mixture may be contacted with a basic material to convert at least a portion of the contaminant to a converted contaminant, thereby producing a modified reaction mixture. | 08-29-2013 |

20130210996 | Shear-Stable High Viscosity Polyalphaolefins - A polyalphaolefin polymer, having a kinematic viscosity at 100° C. of 135 cSt or greater, is shear stable. The polymer either has not more than 0.5 wt % of the polymer having a molecular weight of greater than 60,000 Daltons, or after being subjected to twenty hours of taper roller bearing testing, the polymer has a kinematic viscosity loss of less than 9%. Such a shear stable polyalphaolefin is obtained by either mechanical breakdown of a high viscosity polyalphaolefin or by a selective catalyst system used in oligomerization or polymerization of the feedstock. | 08-15-2013 |
20130202904 | Sealable Polypropylene Films With Enhanced Stability - A multi-layered sealable film and method of storing and transporting a role of the film without buckling or starring, the film comprising a core layer comprising polypropylene sandwiched between at least a first and (optionally) second tie-layer on either side of the core; a sealable layer with two sides, one side adhered to the first tie-layer; wherein at least the first tie-layer comprising a blend of polypropylene and within the range of from 5 wt % to 40 wt % of a soft polymer additive, preferably a propylene-α-olefin elastomer having within the range of from 10 wt % to 30 wt % α-olefin derived units, wherein the blend is preferably partially or completely immiscible. A roll of the inventive films can be readily stored and transported without loss due to film defects. | 08-08-2013 |
20130115143 | Integrated Vacuum Resid To Chemicals Conversion Process - A process and apparatus for cracking a hydrocarbon feed containing resid, comprising: heating a hydrocarbon feedstock containing resid; passing said heated hydrocarbon feedstock to a vapor/liquid separator; flashing said heated hydrocarbon feedstock in said vapor/liquid separator to form a vapor phase and a liquid phase containing said resid; passing at least a portion of said resid-containing liquid phase from said vapor/liquid separator to a thermal conversion reactor operating at 649° C. or more, wherein the thermal conversion reactor contains coke particles; and converting at least a portion of said resid into olefins. | 05-09-2013 |
20080242908 | Recycle Of DME In An Oxygenate-To-Olefin Reaction System - This invention is directed to a process for producing one or more olefins from an oxygenate feed. According to the invention, an oxygenate stream is provided and a recycle stream is added to the oxygenate stream to form a feed stream to an oxygenate-to-olefin conversion system. The recycle stream comprises (i.e., contains) propane and dimethyl ether. | 10-02-2008 |
