| abstract |
A process for production of kerosene and distillate useful as transport fuels, characterized by contacting a light olefin feedstock in the gaseous phase with a zeolite catalyst having pore sizes of at least eight-ring windows at moderate temperature and pressure, for example at temperature below 350 DEG and pressure less than 10 MPa, and under conditions that avoid development of hot spots within the catalyst bed, for example in a fluidized bed, whereby a product containing a substantial proportion of kerosene and distillate is obtained, and separating a kerosene and distillate fraction therefrom. |
