Methods are provided for improving the yield of aromatics during conversion of oxygenate feeds. An oxygenate feed can contain a mixture of oxygenate compounds, including one or more compounds with a hydrogen index of less than 2, so that an effective hydrogen index of the mixture of oxygenates is between about 1.4 and 1.9. Methods are also provided for converting a mixture of oxygenates with an effective hydrogen index greater than about 1 with a pyrolysis oil co-feed. The difficulties in co-processing a pyrolysis oil can be reduced or minimized by staging the introduction of pyrolysis oil into a reaction system. This can allow varying mixtures of pyrolysis oil and methanol, or another oxygenate feed, to be introduced into a reaction system at various feed entry points. |

Methods and systems are provided for converting methane in a feed stream to acetylene. The hydrocarbon stream is introduced into a supersonic reactor and pyrolyzed to convert at least a portion of the methane to acetylene. The reactor effluent stream may be treated to convert acetylene to a process stream having aromatic compounds. The acetylene stream can be reacted to generate larger hydrocarbon compounds, which are passed to a cyclization and aromatization reactor to generate aromatics. The method according to certain aspects includes controlling the level of carbon oxides in the hydrocarbon stream. |

A catalyst for aromatizing a lower hydrocarbon, in order to increase the amount of production of useful aromatic compounds, such as benzene and toluene, by improving the methane conversion rate, the benzene formation rate, the naphthalene formation rate and the BTX formation rate (or a total formation rate of benzene, toluene and xylene) is such that molybdenum and silver are loaded on a metallosilicate as a substrate. It is more preferable to obtain the aromatizing catalyst by loading molybdenum and silver after modifying a zeolite formed of the metallosilicate with a silane compound that has a molecular diameter larger than a pore diameter of the zeolite and that has an amino group, which selectively reacts at a Bronsted acid point of the zeolite, and a straight-chain hydrocarbon group. |

A process for the production of aromatics through the reforming of a hydrocarbon stream is presented. The process utilizes the differences in properties of components within the hydrocarbon stream to increase the energy efficiency. The differences in the reactions of different hydrocarbon components in the conversion to aromatics allows for different treatments of the different components to reduce the energy used in reforming process. |
