Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing catalyst support particles containing zirconium dioxide and optionally silicon oxide, comprising the following steps: (i) a solution containing precursor compounds of zircon dioxide and optionally silicon dioxide is prepared; (ii) the solution(s) is/are converted into an aerosol; (iii) the aerosol is introduced into a pyrolysis zone that is directly or indirectly heated; (iv) pyrolysis is carried out; (v) the catalyst particles that have been formed are separated from the pyrolysis gas.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing catalyst particles comprising platinum and tin, in addition to at least one further element selected from lanthanum and caesium, on zirconium dioxide as a support, comprising the following steps: one or multiple solutions containing precursor compounds of Pt, Sn and at least one other element of La or Cs and ZrO2 is/are prepared; the solution(s) is/are converted into an aerosol; the aerosol is introduced into a pyrolysis zone that is directly or indirectly heated; the pyrolysis is carried out and the particles that have formed are separated from the pyrolysis gas. Suitable precursor compounds comprise zirconium(IV) acetyl acetonate, lanthanum(II) acetyl acetonate and caesium acetate, hexamethyl disiloxane, tin-2-ethyl hexanoate, platinum-acetyl acetonate, zirconium(IV) propylate in n-propanol and lanthanum(II)-acetyl acetonate. The invention also relates to catalyst particles obtained using the method according to the invention and to the use of said particles as dehydrogenation catalysts.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a reactor (1) in the form of a horizontal cylinder for carrying out autothermal gas phase dehydrogenbation of a hydrocarbon-containing gas flow (2) by means of an oxygen-containing gas flow (3), with a reaction mixture being obtained, on a heterogeneous catalyst in the form of a monolith (4), characterized in that the interior of the reactor (1) is divided by a detachable cylindrical or prismatic housing G, which is disposed in the longitudinal direction of the reactor (1), gastight in the circumferential direction and open at both end faces thereof, into an inner area A, having one or a plurality of catalytically active zones (5), in which are provided a packing of monoliths (4) stacked on, adjacent, and above one another, and, in front of each catalytically active zone (5), a mixing zone (6) having fixed installations, and an outer area B disposed coaxially to the inner area A.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for cleaning waste water by bringing the waste water to be cleaned in contact with a strand-shaped TiO 2 photocatalyst, which has a BET surface of 25 to 200 m 2 /g, a pore volume of 0.10 to 1.00 m L/g, and a mean pore diameter of 0.005 to 0.050 μm, while being irradiated with light. The invention further relates to the use of said strand shaped TiO 2 photocatalyst, which has a BET surface of 25 to 200 m 2 /g, a pore volume of 0.10 to 1.00 m L/g, and a mean pore diameter of 0.005 to 0.050 μm for cleaning waste water, while being irradiated with light.
Abstract:
A process for preparing alkanols (I) selected from the group consisting of isopropanol and 2-butanol from the corresponding alkanes (II) selected from the group consisting of propane and n-butane, comprising the steps of: A) a use gas stream a comprising the alkane (II) is provided; B) use gas stream a comprising the alkane (II) is fed into a dehydrogenation zone and the alkane (II) is subjected to a dehydrogenation to the alkene (III), to obtain a product gas stream b comprising the alkene (III), unconverted alkane (II), with or without high boilers, steam, hydrogen and low boilers; C) product gas stream b is at least compressed, and product gas stream b is optionally separated into an aqueous phase c1, a phase c2 which comprises the alkene (III) and the alkane (II), with or without high boilers, and a gas phase c3 comprising hydrogen and low boilers; D) product gas stream b or the phase c2 comprising alkene (III) and alkane (II) is reacted in an esterification zone with an organic acid (IV) to obtain a product mixture d comprising the corresponding alkyl ester (V) of the organic acid and the unconverted alkane (II); E) a gas stream e1 comprising alkane (II) is removed from the product mixture d and is optionally recycled into the dehydrogenation zone, and a product mixture e2 comprising the alkyl ester is obtained; F) product mixture e2 comprising the alkyl ester is reacted in a deesterification zone with water to give a product mixture f comprising the alkanol (I) and the organic acid (IV); G) the alkanol (I) and the organic acid (IV) are removed from the product mixture f, and the organic acid is optionally recycled into the esterification zone.
