Abstract
Methods for processing a hydrocarbon feedstock may include cracking at least a portion of the hydrocarbon feedstock by contacting the hydrocarbon feedstock with a modified zeolite in the presence of hydrogen to form an intermediate cracked product and steam cracking at least a portion of the intermediate cracked product to form a steam cracked product. The intermediate cracked product may include at least 30 wt. % of one or more linear alkanes. The modified zeolite may include a microporous framework. The microporous framework may include at least silicon atoms and oxygen atoms. The modified zeolite also includes a plurality of Group 4-6 metal atoms each bonded to four bridging oxygen atoms, wherein each of the bridging oxygen atoms bonded to the Group 4-6 metal atoms bridges one of the plurality of the Group 4-6 metal atoms and a silicon atom of the microporous framework.
