Abstract:
An improved process for preparing dihydrocarbyl substituted dithiocarbamates of molybdenum wherein an alkali metal hydroxide is reacted with a mixture of a dihydrocarbyl substituted amine and carbon disulfide in an aqueous solution to produce an alkali metal salt of dithiocarbamate and the alkali metal salt then reacted with an alkali metal molybdate in the presence of acid to produce the dihydrocarbyl substituted dithiocarbamate of molybdenum. The process is completed in an inert atmosphere and within a relatively narrow range of temperatures so as to avoid the production of by-products which have heretofore reduced both the yield and purity of the final product. The preparation of the alkali metal salt of dithiocarbamate is completed at a temperature generally within the range from about -5 to about 30.degree. C. The acidification of the alkali metal salt of dithiocarbamate is completed, generally, at a temperature within the range from about -5 to about 5.degree. C.
Abstract:
Contacting deactivated hydrodesulfurization catalyst, such as Co-Mo supported on alumina, with a heteropoly acid, such as molybdophosphoric acid or tungstosilicic acid, to which dilute hydrogen peroxide is added, results in a significant enhancement in the rate and extent of carbon and metals removal. Forms of deposited vanadium intractable by other treatments are also removed. The process results in substantially complete regeneration of catalytic activity.
Abstract:
This invention relates to novel liquid membrane formulations which are water-in-oil emulsions wherein the oil phase comprises a sulfonated polymer having a backbone which is substantially nonaromatic, for example, less than 10 mole % aromatic, and uses thereof in high temperature liquid membrane processes. The emulsions are useful in liquid membrane water treating processes, especially in water treating processes which are desirably run at high temperatures. In the most preferred embodiment, these compositions are used in a liquid membrane sour water treating process wherein a waste water stream containing ammonium sulfide is contacted with a liquid membrane emulsion, i.e., the emulsions of the instant invention, at conditions whereby ammonia permeates through the external phase of the emulsion into an acidic internal phase wherein it is converted to a nonpermeable form, e.g., ammonium ion, while H.sub.2 S is continuously stripped out of the waste water solution by means of an inert gas, e.g., steam. Processes of this sort are most effectively carried out at temperatures greater than 80.degree.C. wherein the emulsions of the instant invention have excellent stability.

A catalyst composition comprised of: about 0.005 to 5.0 wt. % noble metal, about 0.5 to 5 wt. % of at least one Group VIII metal, and about 3 to 18 wt. % of a Group VI metal, and a refractory support, wherein the noble metal is incorporated into the refractory support by use of a precursor represented by ML.sub.2 when the noble metal is Pt or Pd and ML.sub.3, when the noble metal is Rh or Ir, where M is the noble metal and L is a ligand selected from the dithiocarbamates, dithiophosphates, dithiophosphinates, xanthates, thioxanthates, and further wherein L has organo groups having a sufficient number of carbon atoms to render the noble metal complex soluble in oil.
Abstract:
An improved process for preparing dihydrocarbyl substituted dithiocarbamates of molybdenum (VI) wherein an alkali metal ammonium or substituted ammonium salt of a dihydrocarbyl substituted dithiocarbamate is reacted with an alkali metal molybdate in the presence of an organic acid. The process is carried out in an inert atmosphere and within a relatively narrow range of temperatures. The dihydrocarbyl substituted dithiocarbamate of molybdenum (VI) may be recrystallized after preparation to increase its purity. The dihydrocarbyl substituted dithiocarbamate of molybdenum (VI) is produced at a temperature within the range from about -10.degree. C. to about +25.degree. C. at a pH during neutralization within the range from about 5.0 to about 8.0.
Abstract:
Metal constituents are recovered from the heavy bottoms produced during the liquefaction of coal and similar carbonaceous solids in the presence of a catalyst containing metal constituents by reducing the carbonaceous content of the heavy bottoms, contacting the resultant heavy bottoms deficient in carbonaceous material with an aqueous solution of a mineral acid in the presence of an added alcohol and an added oxidizing agent to extract the metal constituent from the insoluble catalyst residues into the aqueous solution, and using the metal constituents extracted as constituents of the catalyst. Preferably, the metal constituent comprising the catalyst is molybdenum, the mineral acid is sulphuric acid, hydrochloric acid or phosphoric acid, the oxidizing agent is hydrogen peroxide and the alcohol is methanol. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the carbonaceous content of the heavy bottoms is reduced by subjecting the heavy bottoms to a solvent extraction at elevated temperature and pressure with a hydrocarbon solvent in the presence of molecular hydrogen.
Abstract:
The instant invention relates to novel liquid membrane formulations, i.e., emulsions, which comprise an aqueous interior phase and a water-immiscible exterior phase; said water-immiscible exterior phase comprising an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer and a solvent for this polymer. These compositions may additionally contain a water insoluble surfactant to stabilize the emulsions. In the most preferred embodiment, the aqueous interior phase comprises a strong acid, for example from about 1 to 10 percent by weight sulfuric acid. These emulsions are useful in liquid membrane processes for the separation of dissolved components from aqueous solution. Emulsions of the instant invention are characterized as showing very low swelling when contacted with aqueous solutions, especially at higher temperatures and thus are especially effective for use in the treatment of sour water feed streams by the liquid membrane technique.
