Abstract:
A process comprising contacting under conversion conditions a hydrocarbon feed comprising hydrocarbons containing 2-16 carbon atoms per molecule with a catalyst composition comprising an acid treated zeolite; a zinc component; a boron component; and a phosphorous component, wherein said catalyst composition has been steam treated, wherein said conversion conditions include a reaction temperature in the range of from 400.degree. C. to about 800.degree. C., a contacting pressure in the range of from subatmospheric upwardly to about 500 psia, a charge rate of said hydrocarbon feed such that the weight hourly space velocity is in the range of from exceeding 0 hour.sup.-1 upwardly to about 1000 hour.sup.-1 to thereby provide a conversion product including aromatics and olefins.
