摘要:
Oxidatively halogenate methane by placing a feedstream that comprises methane, a source of halogen, a source of oxygen and, optionally, a source of diluent gas in contact with a first catalyst (e.g. a solid super acid or a solid super base) that has greater selectivity to methyl halide and carbon monoxide than to methylene halide, trihalomethane or carbon tetrahalide. Improve overall selectivity to methyl halide by using a second catalyst that converts at least part of the feedstream to a mixture of methyl halide, methylene halide, trihalomethane, carbon tetrahalide and unreacted oxygen, and placing that mixture in contact with the first catalyst which converts at least a portion of the methylene halide, trihalomethane and carbon tetrahalide to carbon monoxide, hydrogen halide and water.
摘要:
An oxidative halogenation process involving contacting methane, a C1 halogenated hydrocarbon, or a mixture thereof with a source of halogen and a source of oxygen, at a molar ratio of reactant hydrocarbon to source of halogen in a feed to the reactor greater than 23/1, and/or at a molar ratio of reactant hydrocarbon to source of oxygen in a feed to the reactor greater than about 46/1; in the presence of a rare earth halide or rare earth oxyhalide catalyst, to produce a halogenated C1 product having at least one more halogen as compared with the C1 reactant hydrocarbon, preferably, methyl chloride. The process can be advantageously conducted to total conversion of source of halogen and source of oxygen. The process can be advantageously conducted with essentially no halogen in the feed to the reactor, by employing a separate catalyst halogenation step in a pulse, swing or circulating bed mode. The production of methyl halide can be integrated into downstream processes for manufacture of valuable commodity chemicals.
摘要:
Provided is a process for preparing partially or fully hydrogenated hydrocarbons through hydrogenation of aromatic hydrocarbons in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst. The hydrogenation catalyst comprises palladium deposited on carbon with optional acid wash and calcination treatments and with optional additions of silver and/or alkali metals.
