摘要:
A method of treating a spent potliner after use in an aluminium smelting process, the method comprising crushing and classifying the spent potliner, placing the classified and crushed spent potliner in a furnace at a temperature greater than 450° C., heating the spent potliner to a temperature greater than 450° C., mixing the heated spent potliner with water to produce reaction gases and residue, burning the reaction gases, mixing the residue with water in a well ventilated area for a period of weeks to cure the residue. The method also embraces blending the cured residue with other chemicals and minerals to provide specific mineral products.
摘要:
A continuous process for the dehydrogenation of a hydrocarbon and/or oxygenated hydrocarbon feed, comprising contacting the hydrocarbon and/or oxygenated hydrocarbon feed with a dehydrogenation catalyst at elevated temperature in a reaction zone characterised in that the catalyst is capable of retaining hydrogen and (a) is contacted with a feed to form a dehydrogenated product and hydrogen, at least some of the hydrogen formed being adsorbed by the catalyst and/or reacting therewith to reduce at least part of the catalyst; (b) the dehydrogenated product and any unadsorbed/unreacted hydrogen is removed from the reaction zone; (c) at least some of the adsorbed hydrogen is removed from the catalyst and/or at least some of the reduced catalyst is oxidised; and (d) reusing the catalyst from step (c) in step (a).
摘要:
Process for the liquid phase oxidation of butane to produce acetic acid in which oxygen and butane are reacted in the presence of a cobalt catalyst in a liquid reaction composition in an oxidation reaction zone at a temperature in the reaction zone in the range of 136.degree. to 150.degree. C., while continuously maintaining a concentration of oxygen throughout the reaction zone equivalent to a partial pressure of oxygen greater than two bar. The concentration of cobalt oxidation catalyst in the liquid reaction composition is at least 0.12% by weight cobalt and up to its limit of solubility in the liquid reaction composition.
摘要:
This invention relates to a fabric care composition comprising a thermoplastic elastomer and a textile compatible carrier, a method of treating fabric with such a composition as part of a laundering process and the use of a thermoplastic elastomer or a composition comprising a thermoplastic elastomer to improve the crease recovery properties and/or elasticity and/or shape retention of a fabric.
摘要:
Ethylene and propylene are recovered from a mixture thereof with other hydrocarbons by: (a) feeding the mixture to a separation zone with a top and a bottom; (b) feeding to the top above the mixture an aqueous complexing solution to form Cu(I) complexes of ethylene and propylene; (c) feeding below the mixture ethylene to strip propylene from the propylene complex; (d) removing from the bottom below the stripping gas a first liquid stream containing the Cu (I) ethylene complex; (e) recovering ethylene from the Cu(I) complex using reduced pressure and/or elevated temperature; (f) removing from the separation zone between the the gaseous mixture and the complexing solution, a second liquid stream comprising Cu (I) propylene complex; (g) recovering propylene from the Cu(I) complex and producing a liquid recycle stream comprising copper (I) salt; and (h) recycling the liquid recycle stream from step (g) to the separation zone.
摘要:
This invention relates to a fabric care composition comprising a polycarboxylic acid or a derivative thereof, a catalyst and a thermoplastic elastomer, a method of treating fabric with such a composition and the use of such a composition to increase the tensile strength (especially the tear strength) of a fabric, to reduce creasing and/or wrinkling of a fabric and/or to improve the elasticity and/or shape retention of a fabric.
