Abstract:
In a process for removing oxygen from a C4-hydrocarbon stream comprising free oxygen by catalytic combustion, in which the hydrocarbon stream comprising free oxygen is reacted by catalytic combustion over a catalyst bed in the presence or absence of free hydrogen to give an oxygen-depleted hydrocarbon stream, the catalytic combustion is carried out continuously, the entry temperature in the catalyst bed is at least 300° C. and the maximum temperature in the catalyst bed is not more than 700° C.
Abstract:
The catalyst comprises from 0.01 to 0.5% by weight of platinum, based on the catalyst, and optionally tin, with the weight ratio of Sn:Pt being from 0 to 10, on zeolite A as support.
Abstract:
A process for preparing butadiene from n-butane by two-step dehydrogenation and removal of the residual oxygen comprised in the gas stream by means of a catalytic combustion stage which is carried out in the presence of a catalyst which comprises a monolith which comprises a catalytically inert material having a low BET surface area and a catalyst layer which has been applied to the monolith and comprises an oxidic support material, at least one noble metal selected from the group consisting of the noble metals of group VIII of the Periodic Table of the Elements, optionally tin and/or rhenium, and optionally further metals, where the thickness of the catalyst layer is from 5 to 500 μm, is described.
