摘要:
The invention relates to the production of synthesis gas by means of particularly a series arrangement of heat exchange reforming and autothermal reforming stages, in which the heat required for the reforming reactions in the heat exchange reforming stage is provided by hot effluent synthesis gas from the autothermal reforming stage. More particularly, the invention relates to optimisation of the operation and control of an arrangement of heat exchange reforming and autothermal reforming stages and introduction of an additional waste heat boiler.
摘要:
The invention pertains to a catalyzed particulate filter provided in its entire dispersion side and within its partition walls with a first catalyst being active in selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides, and in its entire permeate side with a second catalyst combination with a catalyst being active in oxidation of ammonia mixed with a catalyst being active in oxidation of carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons and a method for its preparation. The mean particle size of the first catalyst is smaller than the mean pore diameter of the longitudinal porous walls, and the mean particle size of the second catalyst combination is larger than the mean pore diameter of the longitudinal walls. In the example, the first catalyst is a silica aluminum phosphate SAPO-34 promoted with 2% copper and the second catalyst is a mixture of platinum and palladium (molar ratio 3:1) supported on alumina particles and beta zeolite powder with 1.0% copper.
摘要:
Improved design of a catalytic reactor for the production of methanol at equilibrium conditions whereby methanol as it is formed is separated from the gaseous phase into the liquid phase within the reactor, without reducing the catalytic activity of the methanol catalysts This is achieved by adjusting the boiling point of a liquid cooling agent being in indirect contact with the catalyst particles and by providing a specific ratio of catalyst bed volume to cooling surface area. Thereby, condensation of methanol as it is formed in the gaseous phase takes place at the cooling surface arranged evenly distributed within the reactor and within a very limited region of the catalyst bed.

Process for the production of concentrated sulphuric acid and oleum from feed gases with up to 70 % SO 2 + SO 3 (SO x ) and a content of H 2 O corresponding to H 2 O/SO 3 molar ratios up to 1.6, particularly in the range of 0.5 to 1.6 upstream an intermediate sulphuric acid condenser comprising an air recycling loop with water addition. The process of the invention minimizes power consumption of the sulphuric acid plant by reducing the consumption of cooling water and obtaining maximum possible recovery of the heat liberated in the process for production of high pressure steam for power production. Up to 99.95% of the SO x in the feed gas can be recovered as typically 98.5-99.5 wt% concentrated sulphuric acid and/or oleum with up to 25 wt% SO 3 .

摘要:
Process for the production of acetic acid comprising the steps of: (a) passing a feed stream containing ethanol and water together with a predetermined feed rate of an oxygen containing atmosphere in presence of one or more catalysts being active in simultaneous non-oxidative and oxidative conversion of ethanol to a product stream with acetic acid; (b) recovering from the product stream a stream of acetic acid; (c) optionally recovering reactive derivatives of acetic acid and recycling these to step (a). A reactor for use in the process comprises a first and at least a second fixed catalyst bed with a catalyst being active in simultaneous non-oxidative and oxidative conversion of ethanol to acetic acid; inlet means for a fed stream comprising ethanol, water and a first portion of an oxygen containing atmosphere to the first catalyst bed; between the first and at least second catalyst bed inlet means for a second portion of the oxygen containing atmosphere and means for distributing and mixing the second portion of the oxygen containing atmosphere into an effluent of partly converted feed stream from the first catalyst bed; and means for passing the partly converted feed stream and admixed with the oxygen containing atmosphere into the at least second catalyst bed.
