Full Text | TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The invention relates generally to the alkylation of aromatic compounds and catalysts used for such alkylation. BACKGROUND [0002] Para-xylene is a valuable substituted aromatic compound because of its great demand for its oxidation to terephthalic acid, a major component in forming polyester fibers and resins. It can be commercially produced from hydrotreating of naphtha (catalytic reforming), steam cracking of naphtha or gas oil, and toluene disproportionate. [0003] Alkylation of toluene with methanol, which is also known as toluene methylation, has been used in laboratory studies to produce para-xylene. Toluene methylation has been known to occur over acidic catalyst, particularly over zeolite or zeolite-type catalyst. In particular, ZSM-5-type zeolite, zeolite Beta and silicaaluminophosphate (SAPO) catalysts have been used for this process. Generally, a thermodynamic equilibrium mixture of ortho (o)-, meta (m)- and para (p)-xylenes can be formed from the methylation of toluene, as is illustrated by the reaction below. (Formula Removed) [0004] Thermodynamic equilibrium compositions of o-, m-, and p-xylenes may be around 25, 50 and 25 mole%, respectively, at a reaction temperature of about 500 °C. Such toluene methylation may occur over a wide range of temperatures, however. Byproducts such as C9+ and other aromatic products can be produced by secondary alkylation of the xylene product. [0005] Para-xylene can be separated from mixed xylenes by a cycle of adsorption and isomerization. Such cycle may have to be repeated several times because of the low isomeric concentration in the equilibrium mixture. A high purity grade (99+%) p-xylene is desirable for its oxidation to terephthalic acid. The production cost for such a high purity grade p-xylene can be very high, however. A different method that employs crystallization techniques can be used and may be less expensive where the concentration of p-xylene is around 80% or higher in the initial xylene product. Thus, higher than equilibrium concentrations of p-xylene may be desirable. [0006] A significantly higher amount of p-xylene can be obtained in toluene methylation reaction if the catalyst has shape selective properties. Shape selective properties can be obtained in modified zeolite catalysts by narrowing zeolite pore opening size, inactivation of the external surface of the zeolite or controlling zeolite acidity. Toluene methylation may occur over modified ZSM-5 or ZSM-5-type zeolite catalyst giving xylene products containing significantly greater amounts of p-xylene than the thermodynamic concentration. [0007] In Kaeding, et al, Selective Alkylation of Toluene with Methanol to Produce para-Xylene, Journal of Catalysis, Vol. 67, pp. 159-174 (1981), a procedure of making a ZSM-5 catalyst by incorporating 5% phosphorus was described in which the catalyst was impregnated with a solution of diphenylphosphinous acid in toluene. The ZSM-5 catalyst thus modified showed toluene methylation activity with 84-90% para isomer in the xylene product. In another procedure, a catalyst was modified by incorporating 8.51% phosphorus from an aqueous phosphoric acid reagent. The catalyst showed p-xylene selectivity as high as 97%, however, the catalyst showed a decreasing activity within hours due to coke deposition. [0008] Unfortunately, there are a number of technical hurdles for toluene methylation to be commercially successful and improvements are needed. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS [0009] For a more complete understanding of the present invention, reference is now made to the following descriptions taken in conjunction with the accompanying figures, in which: [0010] FIGURE 1 shows 27A1 MAS NMR spectra of a P-modified ZSM-5 before steaming (spectrum a) and after steaming at 610 °C for 13 days (spectrum b). DETAILED DESCRIPTION [00111 Modification of ZSM-5-type zeolite catalysts with phosphorus-containing compounds has been shown to yield significantly greater amounts of p-xylene than the thermodynamic equilibrium value in toluene methylation using unmodified catalysts. Such modification has been shown to provide selectivity for p-xylenes of greater than 80%. Although such phosphorus-treated ZSM-5 catalysts may have a high selectivity for p-xylene, they tend to deactivate at a very fast rate, for example, the catalyst may lose greater than 30% of its initial activity within a day. This may possibly be due to coke deposition on the catalyst. [0012] As used herein, the expression "ZSM-5-type" is meant to refer to those zeolites that are isostructurally the same as ZSM-5 zeolites. Additionally, the expressions "ZSM-5" and "ZSM-5-type" may also be used herein interchangeably to encompass one another and should not be construed in a limiting sense. As used herein, catalytic activity can be expressed as the % moles of toluene converted with respect to the moles of toluene fed and can be defined as: (Equation Removed) where, Ti is the number of moles of toluene fed and To is the number of moles toluene unreacted. As used herein, selectivity for mixed-xylenes may be expressed as: (Equation Removed) where, Xmx is the number of moles of total (o-, m- or p-) xylenes in the product. As used herein, selectivity for p-xylene may be expressed as: (Equation Removed) where, Xp is the number of moles of p-xylene. As used herein, selectivity for methanol may be expressed as: (Equation Removed) where, Xmx is the number of moles of mixed-xylenes, Mj is the number of moles of methanol fed and Mo is the number of moles methanol unreacted. [00131 The ZSM-5 zeolite catalysts and their preparation are described in U.S. Patent No. 3,702,886, which is herein incorporated by reference. In the present invention, the ZSM-5 zeolite catalyst may include those having a silica/alumina molar ratio of from 200 or more, more particularly from about 250 or more, and still more particularly from about 280 to about 1000 or more, prior to modification. The zeolite may have a crystal particle size of 0.5 micron or more, more particularly from about 0.5 to about 5.0 microns, and still more particularly from about 0.5 to 1.0 microns. The starting ZSM-5 zeolite may be a NH4-ZSM-5 zeolite or an H-ZSM-5 zeolite, or other cation-exchanged ZSM-5 zeolite. [0014] The ZSM-5 zeolite may be modified by treating with phosphorus (P)-containing compounds. Such modified catalysts may be treated to provide a phosphorus content in an amount of from about O.01 g P/g zeolite or more, more particularly from about 0.08 to about 0.15 g P/g zeolite, still more particularly from about 0.09 to about 0.13 g P/g zeolite. Such phosphorus-containing compounds may include, for example, phosphonic, phosphinous, phosphorus and phosphoric acids, salts and esters of such acids and phosphorous halides. In particular, phosphoric acid (H3PO4) and ammonium hydrogen phosphate ((NH2)2HPO4) are particularly well suited for use as the phosphorus-containing compound to provide a catalyst for toluene methylation with shape selective properties to give high p-xylene concentration. [0015] The phosphorus treatment may be carried out by various techniques. This may include slurry evaporation and wet incipient methods. In slurry evaporation, the phosphorus may be incorporated into the catalyst by preparing an aqueous slurry of the zeolite and an aqueous solution of the phosphorus compound. Heating of the slurry may be used to facilitate treatment of the zeolite and evaporation of liquids. Heating of the slurry to temperatures of 70 °C and higher is suitable, The slurry may also be stirred or agitated during this step to ensure uniform treatment. Heating the zeolite slurry to near complete evaporation of the liquid causes the formation of dough which can be dried or calcined to form powder or chunks. [0016] In the wet incipient method, an aqueous solution of the phosphorus pompound is added, such as by spraying, to dry the zeolite without forming a slurry. The dry zeolite, which may be initially in the form of a powder, may be mixed with the phosphorus compound to form a dough. If necessary, water may be added to the mixture to facilitate formation of the zeolite dough. The dough may then be dried or calcined to obtain the phosphorus-modified zeolite powder or particles. [0017] It should be noted that the ZSM-5 zeolite structurally contains Al, Si and 0, and may contain no or only trace amounts of any other metal (egs. B, Be, Ca, Cd, Co, Fe, Mg, etc.) other than phosphorus, including any metals of Groups IA, IIA, IIIA, IVA, VA, VIA, VIIA, VIIIA, IB, IIB, IIIB, IVB or VB of the Periodic Chart of the Elements that serve to enhance the para-selectivity properties of the catalyst. The ZSM-5 zeolite may undergo no treatment to provide any other such metals other than phosphorus to enhance the para-selective properties of the catalyst. If a metal other than phosphorus is provided from any such treatment, the ZSM-5 zeolite may contain less than 0.05% by weight of the catalyst of such metal, more particularly, less than 0.01% by weight of the catalyst of such metal, and still more particularly less than 0.001% by weight of the catalyst of such metal. [0018] The catalyst may be bound or unbound. Examples of suitable binders include such materials as alumina, clay, and silica. Those techniques used for preparing the bound catalyst are well known in the art. The phosphorus-modified zeolite catalyst, bound or unbound, may be calcined at a temperature of 400 °C or more in an environment containing oxygen, typically air. Calcining may take place over time, typically from several minutes to one hour or more. Calcining may also take place by gradually increasing the temperature over time. [0019] The calcined P-modified ZSM-5 zeolite may have a BET surface area of 150-200 m /g determined by N2 adsorption techniques. The total pore volume may be in the range of 0.10-0.18 ml/g catalyst. The catalyst may have acidity showing broad peak(s) with peak maxima between 250°C and 350°C, as characterized by ammonia temperature programmed desorption (NH3-TPD) technique. [0020] The phosphorus-treated ZSM-5 zeolite catalyst is steamed at low or mild temperatures. The steaming may occur by contacting the zeolite catalyst with steam in the presence of hydrogen gas or air, or other inert gas. Steaming temperatures may range from about 150°C to about 250°C, 300°C or 350°C. This may be accomplished separately or in situ within the reactor, prior to any aromatic alkylation reaction or introduction of any reaction feed. Steaming may be carried out by contacting the catalyst in the presence of hydrogen or air or other inert gas. Steaming may be conducted from a few minutes to several hours. Such steaming of the phosphorus treated ZSM-5 zeolite causes no removal of aluminum (Al) from the zeolite framework as evidenced by 27A1 MAS NMR study. [0021] Where phosphorus-treated ZSM-5 zeolite catalysts have been steamed according to the present invention, increased catalyst activity and selectivity for the catalyst in aromatic alkylation reactions has been observed. This is compared to the same phosphorus-treated ZSM-5 zeolite catalyst used under the same or similar reaction conditions that has hot been steamed or where steaming is conducted at higher temperatures. Increases in para-selectivity have been observed, as well as increases in selectivity of the alkylating agent. In particular, significant increases in methanol selectivity have been observed for the catalyst when used in toluene methylation reactions. [0022] Further increases in selectivity and catalyst activity of the mildly steamed phosphorus-modified ZSM-5 zeolite catalyst can also be achieved by additionally introducing water or steam into the reactor as cofeed during the alkylation reaction. Such introduction of steam during the reaction has been described in copending U.S. Patent Application Serial No. 10/675,780, filed September 30, 2003, which is herein incorporated by reference. The water introduced into the reactor may be fed into the reactor at a ratio of from about 0.1 or more, and may be less than about 10 moles water per mole of aromatic hydrocarbon and alkylating agent, more particularly, from about 0.3 to about 5, 6 or 7 moles water per mole of aromatic hydrocarbon and alkylating agent. In certain instances, the water may be fed at a ratio of from about 0.2 to 1.2 moles water per mole of aromatic hydrocarbon and alkylating agent, more particularly, from about 0.3 to about 0.9 mole water per mole of aromatic hydrocarbon and alkylating agent. The addition of water (or steam) as cofeed may be done in combination with or without hydrogen cofeed or with the introduction of any inert gas. The water cofeed may be fed into the reactor wherein the conditions are such that substantially no structural aluminum loss of the catalyst results due to the presence of such additional water within the reactor. [0023] In carrying out the aromatic alkylation reactions with the P-modified ZSM-5 catalyst with or without catalyst steaming and both with and without water cofeed, the toluene and methanol feed may be premixed prior to introduction into the reactor as a single mixed feed stream. The feed may also contain small quantities of water, C9 + aromatics and other compounds. The liquid hourly space velocities presented herein, however, are based upon a toluene/methanol feed without the inclusion of any other components. The toluene/methanol molar ratio in the feed can range from 0.5 to 10.0, more particularly 1.0 to 5.0. Optionally, a cofeed gas can be added with the toluene/methanol and steam. The cofeed gas may include hydrogen, nitrogen, helium or other inert gas. The cofeed gas may be provided at a molar ratio of less than about 10 with respect to toluene and methanol. The reactor temperature used herein referred as catalyst bed inlet temperature and a reactor temperature between 400 °C and 700 °C is provided. [0024] The reactor inlet pressure may remain generally constant during the catalytic test run. The reactor inlet pressure may be about 10 psig or more. [0025] The reaction may be carried out in a fixed bed, continuous flow-type reactor in a down flow mode. Single or multi reactors in series and/or parallel are suitable for carrying out the reaction. The reactor temperature can be gradually increased. Initially, upon introduction of feed into the reactor, the reactor temperature may be about 200 °C or above. The temperature may then be increased to the desired temperature. This temperature may be increased gradually at a rate of from about 0.1 °C/min to about 10 °C/min to provide a temperature of from about 400 °C to about 700 °C. [0026] The following examples better serve to illustrate the invention. EXAMPLES [0027] Using the procedure described below, phosphorus treated zeolite Catalysts A, B, and C were prepared using ZSM-5 zeolite powder as starting material. Phosphoric acid was used to treat the zeolite. The starting zeolite powder was a NH4-ZSM-5 zeolite powder having a SiO2/Al2O3 mole ratio of about 280. The crystal particle size of the starting zeolite powder was from about 0.5 to 1.0 micron. Catalyst A A phosphorus-modified ZSM-5 Catalyst was made by a slurry method as follows. A slurry containing 450.0 g of NH4-ZSM-5 zeolite and 900 ml of deionized water was prepared in a 2000 ml beaker. The beaker was placed on a hot plate and the zeolite suspension was stirred using a mechanical (overhead) stirrer at 250-300 rpm. The temperature of the suspension was slowly raised to about 80-85 °C at which time phosphoric acid was added slowly. Phosphoric acid in an amount of 205.2 g (85 wt% in aqueous) was added to the slurry. The slurry temperature was further increased to between 95-100 °C and heating was continued until all liquid was evaporated to form a dough. The phosphoric-acid modified zeolite was calcined in a convection oven in air at the following temperature program: 90°C to 120 °C for four hours; at 340 °C to 360 °C for three hours; and 520 °C to 530 °C under air for 10 hours. The calcined zeolite was then crushed and sized using 20 and 40 mesh screens. The phosphorus-modified ZSM-5 zeolite catalyst contained 0,0901 g P/g zeolite, Catalyst B A phosphorus-modified ZSM-5 catalyst was made by impregnation method as follows. Zeolite powder in an amount of 50.01 g was placed in a 500 ml beaker. To this was slowly added 22.68 g of H3PO4 acid (85% in aqueous) while mixing vigorously. Water was sprayed to moisten the zeolite powder and to form a dough, The catalyst dough Was transferred to a ceramic dish and was calcined in a convection oven in air at the following temperature program: 90°C to 120 °C for four hours; at 340 °C to 360 °C for three hours; and 510 °C to 530 °C under air for 10 hours, The calcined zeolite was then crushed and sized using 20 and 40 mesh screens, The phosphorus-modified ZSM-5 zeolite catalyst contained 0.0902 g P/g zeolite. Catalyst C A phosphorus-modified ZSM-5 bound catalyst was prepared as follows, A slurry containing 450.0 g of NH.,-ZSM-5 zeolite and 900 ml of deionized water was prepared in a 2000 ml beaker. The beaker was placed on a hot plate and the zeolite suspension was stirred using a mechanical (overhead) stirrer at 250-300 rpm, The temperature of the suspension was slowly raised to about 80-85 oC at which time phosphoric acid was added slowly. A weighted 205.2 g of phosphoric acid (85 wt% in aqueous) was added to the slurry, The slurry temperature was further increased to between 95-100 °C and heating was continued until all liquid was evaporated to form a dough. The phosphoric-acid modified zeolite was calcined in a convection oven in air at the following temperature program: 90°C to 120 °C for four hours; 340 CC to 360 °C for three hours; and 510 °C to 520 °C under air for 10 hours, A part of the calcined zeolite was then crushed and was sieved using 80 mesh screen. The P/ZSM-5 catalyst contained 9,36 g P/g zeolite. The powder P/ZSM-5 was bound with 10 wt% alumina (commercial grade alumina, Alcoa, HiQ-40, pseudoboehmite type alumina). The alumina was first peptized with nitric acid (3:1 wt ratio) and then mixed with the P/ZSM-5 powder and mixed vigorously and sprayed with water to form a dough. The dough was calcined by using the same calcination temperature profile used for the P/ZSM-5. The calcined zeolite was then crushed and sized using 20 and 40 mesh screens for testing for reactions. The bound catalyst contained 0.084 g P/g catalyst. Example 1-4 Catalyst A was used in toluene methylation. A catalyst charge of 5.4 ml of Catalyst A was placed within a ½-inch tubular reactor at about its midpoint. Layers of silicon carbide (SiC) were added to both ends of the catalyst bed. The reactor was tested for leaks in the system at 60-80 psig. The catalyst was then dried at 200°C under H2 flow for at least one hour before use, In Examples 1 and 3, the reactor feed was introduced without any further catalyst pretreatment, that is, without catalyst pre-steaming. In Examples 2 and 4, however, in order to examine the effect of catalyst steaming, the catalyst was first dried and then was steamed by flowing hydrogen eras containing H2O (1.0-12 mole%) at 200oC overnight. The feed was made by mixing toluene and methanol at a molar ratio of 4.5. The pre-mixed toluene/methanol liquid feed were introduced at a LHSV of 2,0-2.1 hr-1. Where water was optionally added to the reactor feed, the water was introduced at a H2O/(toluene+methanol) molar ratio of 0,8 (see Examples 2 and 4). Hydrogen gas was added to the feed at a predetermined rate to maintain a selected H2/(toluene+methanol) molar ratio of 7-8. The catalyst bed inlet temperature was raised to approximately 550°C. When catalyst performance reached steady conditions, conversion and selectivity were calculated using Equations 2-4, Conversion and selectivity obtained in Examples 1-4 are 2-4. Conversion and selectivity obtained in Examples 1-4 are presented below in Table 1, TABLE 1 (Table Removed) Examples 5-6 [0032] The effect of catalyst steaming temperature was examined on Catalyst A. In all cases, the catalyst was first dried at 200°C for an hour under hydrogen gas flow. The catalyst was then steamed overnight by flowing hydrogen gas containing from 10-12 mole% H2O at either 200°C, 300°C or 500°C. The same reaction conditions as those of Example 4 were used. The results are summarized in Table 2 below. TABLE 2 (Table Removed) Examples 7-8 [0033] The effect of catalyst steaming was examined on Catalyst B. In all cases, the catalyst was first dried at 200°C for an hour under hydrogen gas flow. In Example 7, the catalyst was not pre-steamed. In Example 8, after drying the catalyst it was then steamed overnight by flowing hydrogen gas containing from 10-12 mole% H2O at 200°C. The same reaction conditions as those of Example 4 were used. The results are summarized in Table 3 below. TABLE 3 (Table Removed) Examples 9-10 [0034] The effect of catalyst steaming was also examined on Catalyst C. In all cases, the catalyst was first dried at 200°C for an hour under hydrogen gas flow. In Example 9, the catalyst was not pre-steamed, whereas in Example 10, after drying the catalyst it was then steamed overnight by flowing hydrogen gas containing from 10-12 mole% H2O at 200°C. The same reaction conditions as those of Example 4 using a water cofeed were used. The results are summarized in Table 4 below. TABLE 4 (Table Removed) Example 11 [0035] The 27A1 MAS NMR spectra were recorded for P-modified ZSM-5 catalyst (e.g., catalyst A). Steaming was carried out by placing about 5.4 ml of sized catalyst (20-40 mesh) in a stainless steel reactor. The catalyst was dried at 200°C under H2 or N2 flow at 50 cc/min for at least one hour. The gas flow was increased to 459 cc/min, and liquid water was introduced at 0.04 ml/min through a vaporizer at 200°C. The reactor temperature was then increased to desired steaming temperature and steaming was continued usually for overnight. Referring to Figure 1, 27A1 MAS-NMR spectrum of non-steamed catalyst showed a weak peak at 50-55 ppm attributed to the zeolite framework aluminum. A strong peak was observed at around -12 ppm assigned to extraframework aluminum (EFA1). The 27A1 MAS NMR of catalyst A after steaming at 610 °C (for13 days), showed no or little change in framework Al or EFA1.
