Abstract
A method for the production of an adsorbent, having increased capacity for olefins and decreased catalytic activity for polymerization and isomerization, useful in the separation of olefins from a hydrocarbon mixture comprising olefins and paraffins. The methods basically comprises contacting a precursor mass comprising sodium X or sodium Y zeolite and amorphous material selected from the group consisting of silica, alumina and silica-alumina mixtures and compounds as a binder with an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution to increase the sodium cation content of the zeolite and to remove a small portion of silica and alumina; washing the zeolite with water to remove excess caustic solution; and, drying the zeolite to reduce the volatile content.
