ABSTRACT:
A catalyst composition, a process for producing the composition, and a hydrotreating process for converting a hydrocarbon stream such as, for example, gasoline, to olefins and C.sub.6 to C.sub.8 aromatic hydrocarbons such as toluene and xylenes are disclosed. The catalyst composition comprises a zeolite, a clay, and optionally a coke suppressor and/or an activity promoter. The process for producing the composition comprises the steps: (1) optionally contacting a zeolite with steam whereby a steamed zeolite is formed; (2) optionally contacting a zeolite or the steamed zeolite with an acid to produce an acid-leached zeolite; (3) combining a zeolite, which can also be the steamed zeolite or the acid-leached zeolite, with a clay under a condition sufficient to bind the clay to the zeolite to produce a clay-bound zeolite; and (4) calcining the clay-bound zeolite to produce a calcined clay-bound zeolite. The hydrotreating process comprises contacting a hydrocarbon stream with the catalyst composition under a condition sufficient to effect the conversion of a hydrocarbon to an olefin and a C.sub.6 to C.sub.8 aromatic hydrocarbon.
