Process for making zeolite containing zinc borate composition, the composition and the use thereof in hydrocarbon conversion

摘要

A novel zeolite catalyst composition comprising a mixture of a zeolite, a binder, and a zinc borate compound wherein such mixture is calcined or treated with steam. Preferably, the zeolite has not been treated with an acid. Also provided is a process of making such composition, a product by such process, and the use thereof in the conversion of a hydrocarbon-containing fluid such as a gasoline-boiling range fluid or coker naphtha. Use of such zeolite in the conversion of a hydrocarbon-containing fluid also includes pre-treating such hydrocarbon-containing fluid with a nitrogen removal medium such as ion-exchange resin.
