Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for aminating hydrocarbons with ammonia. Said method is characterized in that the amination process is carried out in the presence of an additive which reacts with hydrogen. At least one organic-chemical compound, N2O, hydroxylamine, hydrazine, and/or carbon monoxide is/are used as an additive.
Abstract:

Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing isocyanates through reaction of the corresponding amines with phosgene in the liquid phase, optionally in the presence of at least one inert medium, in which first the amine and the phosgene are mixed in a mixing chamber (1) to form a reaction mixture and the reaction mixture is fed to a reactor, wherein the amine is added through an opening (3) that is disposed coaxially to the mixing chamber (1) and wherein the phosgene is added through feed openings (5) in at least two planes (7, 9) disposed perpendicular to the axis (11) of the mixing chamber (1), or the phosgene is added through the opening (3) that is coaxial to the mixing chamber and the amine is added through the feed openings (5) in at least two planes (7, 9) disposed perpendicular to the axis (11) of the mixing chamber (1). At least one plane (9) is disposed upstream in the main flow direction of the reaction mixture and at least one plane (7) is disposed downstream relative to the opening (3) disposed coaxially to the mixing chamber (1).

Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing toluylenediamine by hydrogenating dinitrotoluene with hydrogen in the presence of a suspended catalyst in a vertically upright reactor (1), at the upper end of which a propulsion jet nozzle (2) is arranged, through which the reaction mixture drawn from the reactor sump is injected into the upper area of the reactor (1) through an external loop, the reaction mixture then flowing into a central insertion pipe (4), which is arranged in the longitudinal direction of the reactor, flowing through said insertion pipe from top to bottom and flowing upward again in an internal loop movement outside of the insertion pipe (4), having a heat exchanger (6) in the interior space of the reactor (1), through which cooling water flows, and in the process absorbs part of the reaction heat, the dinitrotoluene being fed at the upper end of the reactor (1) and the hydrogen being fed at the lower end of the reactor (1), and in addition to the heat exchanger (6) arranged in the interior space of the reactor (1), another heat exchanger (W) being inserted in the external loop, water absorbing the remaining reaction heat through indirect heat exchange with the reaction mixture, characterized in that the reaction heat is used to produce steam at an overpressure of at least 4 bar in that the hydrogenation of dinitrotoluene into toluylenediamine is performed at a temperature > 180°C.
