Abstract:
A process for producing naphthalene or methylnaphthalenes from an alkane-containing stream. In an embodiment, the produce includes providing an alkane-containing feed stream to a reactor, and contacting the ethane-containing stream with an aromatization catalyst within the reactor. The aromatization catalyst comprises molecular sieve, and a dehydrogenation component. In addition, the process includes producing a reactor effluent stream from the reactor, and separating a product stream from the reactor effluent stream. The product stream comprises at least one or both of naphthalene and methylnaphthalene.

Claim (Index 19):
The process of  claim 18 , further comprising:\n (g) providing the residue stream and at least a portion of the second stream to a transalkylation unit; (h) contacting the residue stream and the at least a portion of the second stream with a transalkylation catalyst within the transalkylation unit; (i) producing a transalkylation effluent stream from the transalkylation unit that comprises either a greater amount of naphthalene or a greater amount of methylnaphthalenes than the residue stream; and (j) recycling the transalkylation effluent stream to the second separation unit.
