Abstract: A process for the dehydrogenation of a C2 or C3 alkyl aromatic compound to a corresponding vinyl aromatic compound in a tubular reactor incorporating a spiral flow path. Preferred embodiments of the invention provide processes for the production of styrene or divinylbenzene by the catalytic dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene or diethylbenzene, respectively. A feedstock containing a C2 or C3 alkyl aromatic and steam is supplied into the inlet of a tubular reactor containing a dehydrogenation catalyst and comprising a hydrogen permeable outer wall. The alkyl aromatic compound is dehydrogenated to a corresponding vinyl aromatic compound with the attendant production of hydrogen. The feedstock and products of the dehydrogenation reactor are flowed along a longitudinal spiral flow path providing for an outward radial flow of hydrogen to provide a pressure gradient through the hydrogen permeable outer wall of the reactor with the flow of hydrogen therethrough. Hydrogen is removed from the outer wall of the reactor. The resulting vinyl aromatic product is recovered from the tubular reactor.

Abstract: A process for the regeneration of a deactivated zeolite beta catalyst such as rare earth promoted zeolite beta catalyst deactivated in the course of an aromatic alkylation reaction. A zeolite beta conversion catalyst deactivated with the deposition of coke is heated to a temperature in excess of 300° C. in an oxygen-free environment. An oxidative regeneration gas is supplied to the catalyst bed with oxidation of a portion of a relatively porous coke component to produce an exotherm moving through the catalyst bed. At least one of the temperature and oxygen content of the gas is progressively increased to oxidize a porous component of the coke. Regeneration gas is supplied having at least one of an increased oxygen content or increased temperature to oxidize a less porous refractory component of the coke. The regeneration process is completed by passing an inert gas through the catalyst bed at a reduced temperature.

Abstract: It has been discovered that certain nitrogen-containing thiols other than mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT) perform equivalently as accelerators in preparing asphalt polymer compositions. Typically, the crosslinker in these compositions is sulfur. Nitrogen-containing thiols containing at least one functional group —N═(SH)— have been found to be useful alternate accelerators along with activators such as zinc oxides. Particular nitrogen-containing thiols include, but are not necessarily limited to, 2-mercaptobenzoxazole (MBO), 2-mercapto-5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole (MMTD), and combinations thereof.

Abstract: A process for the alkylation of aromatic hydrocarbons in a reaction zone containing a crystalline silica polymorph silicalite catalyst. The feed stock to the reaction zone comprises an alkylating agent and an aromatic substrate contains sulfur in an amount, greater than 2 ppm, which heretofore has considered to be unacceptable to zeolite catalysts. A steam cofeed may also be applied to the reaction zone in an amount sufficient to reduce the deposition of coke on the catalyst due to the presence of sulfur. Sulfur may be present as a contaminant in the aromatic substrate or the alkylating agent.

Abstract: A tableted form of fibrous triethylaminoethyl cellulose suitable for the removal of heparin from heparin-containing blood plasma. The tablet is composed of granular microcrystalline cellulose and fibrous triethylaminoethyl cellulose in a ratio of from about 5.4:1 to about 10:1. The triethylaminoethyl cellulose tablet, which is formulated to provide from about 5 to about 26 mg. of triethylaminoethyl cellulose per milliliter of plasma sample, is added to a heparin-containing blood plasma sample, the sample is agitated or allowed to stand for a time sufficient to permit adsorption of substantially all heparin present. The sample is then centrifuged and the remaining heparin-free plasma can be subjected to coagulation testing in order to determine the true clotting time.
