Abstract

The invention relates to a process for producing a particulate, Si-bonded fluidized-bed catalyst having improved abrasion resistance, which comprises the steps
I. provision of an aqueous suspension comprising zeolite particles, II. addition of a silicone resin mixture comprising one or more hydrolyzable silicone resin precondensates and mixing of the aqueous suspension and the silicone resin mixture, III. spray drying of the mixture obtained from step II, with the mixture being homogenized before spray drying, and IV. calcination of the spray-dried fluidized-bed catalyst obtained from step III,

and an Si-bonded fluidized-bed catalyst which can be produced by this process and also its use for the nonoxidative dehydroaromatization of C 1 -C 4 -aliphatics.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A particulate fluidized-bed catalyst, obtained by a process comprising:
(I) forming an aqueous suspension comprising zeolite particles;
(II) adding a silicone resin mixture comprising a hydrolyzable silicone resin precondensate to the aqueous suspension and mixing the aqueous suspension and the silicone resin mixture, to obtain an intermediate mixture;
(III) homogenizing the intermediate mixture and then spray drying the intermediate mixture, to obtain a spray-dried fluidized-bed catalyst; and
(IV) calcinating the spray-dried fluidized-bed catalyst, to obtain a calcinated fluidized-bed catalyst comprising a zeolite having at least one structure selected from the group consisting of a pentasil structure and a MWW structure.

2. The particulate fluidized-bed catalyst according to claim 1 , comprising, based on a total weight of the fluidized-bed catalyst:
from 5 to 40% by weight of silicon dioxide; and
from 60 to 95% by weight of zeolite.

3. The particulate fluidized-bed catalyst according to claim 1 , comprising:
from 0.1 to 20% by weight of an active metal selected from the group consisting of Mo, W, Re, Ir, Ru, Rh, Pt, Pd and mixtures thereof, based on the total weight of the particulate fluidized-bed catalyst.

4. The particulate fluidized-bed catalyst according to claim 3 , further comprising:
at least one metal selected from the group consisting of W, Cu, Ni, Fe, Co, Mn, Cr, Nb, Ta, Zr, V, Zn and Ga.

5. A process for dehydroaromatizing a C 1 -C 4 -aliphatic, the process comprising:
reacting a feedstream comprising a C 1 -C 4 -aliphatic and less than 5% by weight of oxidants, based on a total weight of the feedstream, in the presence of a fluidized-bed catalyst according to claim 3 .

6. Aprocess for dehydroaromatizing a C 1 -C 4 -alipahtic, the process comprising:
reacting a feedstream E comprising a C 1 -C 4 -alipahtic in the presence of a fluidized-bed catalyst according to claim 4 .

7. The particulate fluidized-bed catalyst according to claim 2 , wherein the zeolite has at least one structure selected from the group consisting of a pentasil structure and a MWW structure.

8. The particulate fluidized-bed catalyst according to claim 1 , wherein at least one further Si-comprising binder selected from the group consisting of silica, silica suspensions and silica sols is further added to the aqueous suspension during the adding (II).

9. The particulate fluidized-bed catalyst according to claim 8 , wherein the zeolite particles are H-ZSM-5.
