摘要:
A process for the production of an ether-rich additive for gasoline, and more particularly, the production of MTBE, TAME and mixtures thereof from light hydrocarbon streams comprising passing the light hydrocarbon stream, preferably from an FCC feedstock, through a superactivated alumina medium so as to remove nitrogen compounds, mercaptan and water prior to contacting the feedstock with a catalyst under etherification process conditions. The present invention further includes a process for regenerating the spent superactivated alumina mediums used for purifying the feedstock employed in the process for the production of ether-rich additives for gasoline.
摘要:
A method is disclosed for separating impurity components, UV absorbers and/or UV absorber precursors contained in an ethylene glycol-water stream thereby desirably allowing the recovery of the glycols contained in such stream in an economical and efficient manner. Specifically, these undesirable components are separated by contacting the ethylene glycol-water stream with a suitable semi-permeable membrane to effect such separation.
摘要:
A process for preparing an alkyl-tert-alkyl ether wherein an olefin having a double bond on a tertiary carbon atom and a primary alcohol are reacted in the presence of a catalyst under conditions sufficient to produce an azeotropic alcohol/ether/hydrocarbon mixture containing the alkyl-tert-alkyl ether. The azeotropic alcohol/ether/hydrocarbon mixture is subjected to a cyclic liquid phase adsorption process sequence to selectively remove the alcohol. The resulting non-azeotropic ether/hydrocarbon stream can then be easily separated by distillation to provide the desired alkyl-tert-alkyl ether product and a hydrocarbon product. The cyclic adsorption process employed to separate the alcohol from the ether/hydrocarbon mixture comprises introducing the alcohol/ether/hydrocarbon mixture into a plurality of adsorption colums containing an alcohol selective adsorbent, wherein each respective absorption column undergoes successive steps of adsorption and desorption.
摘要:
A feedstock selected from the group consisting of polyoxyethylene glycols, polyoxypropylene glycols and monoalkyl ethers thereof having molecular weights of about 200 to about 5,000 and contaminated with more than about 100 ppm of alkali metal or alkaline earth metal ions is purified by bringing said feedstock into contact with a basic ion exchange resin in the presence of about 2 to about 10 wt. % of water, based on the weight of the feedstock at a temperature of about 25.degree. to about 100.degree. C. and a pressure of about 0 to about 100 psig. for a period of time sufficient to lower the impurity level of said ions by at least about 90% to a level of less than about 100 ppm,the basic ion exchange resin being a fully hydrated boron specific basic styrene-divinyl benzene ion exchange resin in the free base form having an apparent density of about 40 to 45 lbs. per cubic foot.

Mixtures containing methanol and dimethyl carbonate or methanol and methyl t-butyl ether may be treated by pervaporation to cover product containing decreased quantity of methanol.
摘要:
A bioactive compound obtained from A. cinnamomea mycelium is prepared. The A. cinnamomea mycelium is solid-state cultivated. The bioactive compound is 2,3,6-trimethoxy-4-methylphenol and is called Leader 1. Leader 1 effectively suppresses movement, migration and invasion of lung cancer cells. Leader 1 achieves the effect of anti-metastasis and shows excellent resistance to physiological activity and mechanism on cancer metastasis.
摘要:
A separation apparatus using a membrane for diafiltration, which provides precise fractionation of a target substance by monitoring and regulating permeability of the target substance based on measurement values and analytical values indicating separation status, such as physical values and concentration of a permeate liquid, a circulating liquid and an internal circulating liquid in a membrane device. A diafiltration process including adding a cleaning liquid to an treating liquid which contains multiple target substances and extracting a target substance into the permeate liquid supplied from a membrane separation apparatus to fractionate the target substance from other target substances remaining in a residual liquid. In the present invention, permeability of the target substance is controlled by regulating or controlling at least one operating parameter, such as a flow rate of the permeate liquid, operating pressure and temperature of the membrane separation apparatus, and concentration and amount of a circulating liquid, to a predetermined range based on a separation status index and/or a progress index of a separating operation.
