The oligomerization of ethylene using a chromium catalyst having a heteroatomic ligand may be used to provide oligomerization products that are selective towards hexene and/or octene. However, such processes also typically produce some polymer as an undesirable by product. The present invention is directed towards improvements in the selective oligomerization of ethylene.

Heat management in ethylene oligomerization

ETS-10 type materials preferentially adsorb ethane and, if present, Cparaffins from mixtures comprising methane, ethane and optionally Cparaffins at pressures above 200 psia. A process in which ETS-10 type materials are used to separate ethane and Cparaffins from natural gas streams at over 200 psia is provided.
