Abstract
This invention relates to a process for converting acyclic C5 hydrocarbons to cyclopentadiene in a reactor system, wherein the process comprises: providing to the reaction system a feedstock comprising acyclic C5 hydrocarbons; providing to the reaction system a particulate material comprising a catalyst material; contacting the feedstock and the particulate material in at least one reaction zone under reaction conditions to convert at least a portion of the acyclic C5 hydrocarbons to a first effluent comprising cyclopentadiene; wherein the feedstock flows counter-current to a direction of a flow of the particulate material.
