摘要:
A radial flow catalyst reactor designed to provide maximum area of exposure of catalyst to a fluid feed while yet providing for rapid removal of effluent of the reaction from the reactor. For larger reactors, an internal space-occupying thumb reduces fluidflow space and increases the rapidity of escape of the effluent. The reactor and catalyst cases are designed to allow for overfill to permit settling of catalyst particles in the cases without bypassing of the catalyst.
摘要:
An improved catalyst suitable for the dehydration of an alkanolamine in the vapor phase to produce an alkylenimine which catalyst contains an oxide of niobium or tantalum. Optionally an alkaline earth oxide is employed as a promoter. The catalyst is generally used on an inert low surface area support at a concentration of less than 5% of the tantalum or niobium oxide and less than 0.5% of the promoter oxide.
摘要:
A highly selective oxidation process for preparing pyridin-carboxylic acids from pyridine compounds nucleus substituted with alkyl groups, through a carbon-carbon bond, and oxidizable to carboxyl, and from hydrosoluble hexavalent chromium compounds, in the presence of an acid.Particularly described is the oxidation of beta-picoline with sodium bichromate to obtain the sodium salt of nicotinic acid and 99.5% pure free acid, respectively.
摘要:
Dehydrogenatable hydrocarbons are dehydrogenated by contacting them, at dehydrogenation conditions, with a catalytic composite comprising a combination of catalytically effective amounts of a platinum or palladium component, a rhodium component, and a rhenium component with a porous carrier material. A specific example of the nonacidic catalytic composite disclosed herein is a combination of a platinum or palladium component, a rhodium component, a rhenium component, and an alkali or alkaline earth component with a porous carrier material in amounts sufficient to result in a composite containing about 0.01 to about 2 wt. % platinum or palladium, about 0.01 to about 2 wt. % rhodium, about 0.01 to about 2 wt. % rhenium and about 0.1 to about 5 wt. % alkali metal or alkaline earth metal. A preferred modifying component for the disclosed catalytic composites is a sulfiding reagent.
