摘要:
A method for the start-up of a process for the epoxidation of ethylene comprising: initiating an epoxidation reaction by reacting a feed gas composition containing ethylene, and oxygen, in the presence of an epoxidation catalyst at a temperature of about 180° C. to about 210° C.; adding to the feed gas composition about 0.05 ppm to about 2 ppm of moderator; increasing the first temperature to a second temperature of about 240° C. to about 250° C., over a time period of about 12 hours to about 60 hours; and maintaining the second temperature for a time period of about 50 hours to about 150 hours.
摘要:
A method to achieve a controlled start-up temperature of an expoxidation process which exceeds the maximum achievable temperature of the epoxidation reactor relative to using an external heat source. The method of the present invention employs an oxidation reaction within the reactor to bring the temperature of the reactor to a temperature that is suitable for conditioning a high selectivity catalyst. The method of the present invention includes first bringing a reactor including a high selectivity catalyst to a first temperature using the external heat source to the reactor, while staying within the reactor design limitations and maintaining a gas flow to the reactor that is within 25 to 100% of the design rates. Once the reactor has achieved the first temperature, at least an olefin, e.g., ethylene, and then oxygen are introduced to the reactor feed gas. The olefin and oxygen concentrations are adjusted to have a heat of reaction that will allow raising the reactor gas flow to 100% of design and then have sufficient heat of reaction to raise the reactor temperature to a second temperature which is greater than the first temperature and greater than the temperature of the reactor achievable by the external heat source.

A process for adiabatic, non-oxidative dehydrogenation of hydrocarbons including passing a hydrocarbon feed stream through a catalyst bed, wherein the catalyst bed includes a first layer of a catalyst and second layer of a catalyst, wherein the catalyst of the first layer has high activity but a higher capacity for producing coke than the catalyst of the second layer and the second catalyst also has high activity but a lower capacity for producing coke than the catalyst of the first layer.
摘要:
This invention relates to an improved process for preparing silver catalysts useful for the vapor phase production of ethylene oxide from ethylene and oxygen. An inert support is impregnated with a solution of a catalytically effective amount of a silver containing compound, a promoting amount of an alkali metal containing compound, and a promoting amount of a transition metal containing compound. The impregnated support is calcined by heating at a temperature of from about 200° C. to about 600° C. to convert the silver in the silver containing compound to metallic silver and to decompose and remove substantially all organic materials. The heating is conducted under an atmosphere comprising a combination of an inert gas and from about 10 ppm to about 5% by volume of a gas of an oxygen containing oxidizing component.
