Patent ID: 10005965

Abstract:
A process for converting one or more C3-C12 oxygenates comprising oxygenates comprising: contacting a feed, which feed comprises one or more C3-C12 oxygenates, with hydrogen at a hydrogen partial pressure of more than 1.0 Mega Pascal in the presence of a sulphided carbon-carbon coupling catalyst; wherein the carbon-carbon coupling catalyst comprises equal to or more than 60 wt % of a zeolite and in the range from equal to or more than 0.1 wt % to equal to or less than 10 wt % of a hydrogenation metal, based on the total weight of the carbon-carbon coupling catalyst; and wherein the zeolite comprises 10-membered and/or 12-membered ring channels and a Silica to Alumina molar Ratio (SAR) in the range from equal to or more than 10 to equal to or less than 300.
