There is provided a catalyst containing porous macrostructures comprised of: (a) a three-dimensional network of particles of porous inorganic material; and, (b) at least one metal. The particles of the at least one macrostructure occupy less than 75% of the total volume of the at least one macrostructure and are jointed together to form a three-dimensional interconnected network. The three-dimensional interconnected network will usually be comprised of pores having diameters greater than about 20 Å. The macrostructures can be made by forming an admixture containing a porous organic ion exchanger and a synthesis mixture capable of forming the porous inorganic material and the at least one metal; converting the synthesis mixture to the porous inorganic material; and removing the porous organic ion exchanger from the inorganic material. The metal-containing macrostructures find application in hydrocarbon conversion and in the reduction of emissions.
A catalyst suitable for use in hydrocarbon conversion, said catalyst comprising:
A process of preparing a catalyst comprising;
A process for converting hydrocarbons comprising contacting a hydrocarbon feedstream under hydrocarbon conversion conditions with a catalyst comprising:
52 The process recited in claim 51, wherein said at least one metal is present on the porous organic ion exchanger before forming the synthesis mixture of step (i).
A process for reducing emissions of hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen, or mixtures thereof in a gas stream comprising contacting said gas stream with a catalyst comprising:
