摘要:
A process for producing a hydrogenation product of aromatic carboxylic acid which comprises continuously producing the hydrogenation product of aromatic carboxylic acid by hydrogenating an aromatic carboxylic acid having a melting point of 250° C. or higher in a solvent in the presence of a solid catalyst, wherein the hydrogenation is conducted in a condition such that substantially the entire amount of the aromatic carboxylic acid of a raw material is dissolved in the solvent by recycling a portion of a reaction liquid taken out of a reactor into the reactor. An aromatic carboxylic acid having a high melting point and hardly soluble in solvents can be hydrogenated at a suitable reaction temperature in accordance with a continuous process without using a great amount of a solvent and the reaction product of the object compound can be produced very efficiently.

Dialkylnaphthalene is oxidized to naphthalenedicarboxylic acid in a lower aliphatic carboxylic acid solvent in the presence of a catalyst comprising a cobalt compound, a manganese compound and a bromine compound having an atomic ratio of manganese to cobalt of 0.03 to 0.5. The catalyst is supplied to the oxidation reaction zone so that the total amount of cobalt and manganese is 0.025 to 0.1 gram atom based on 1 gram mol of the dialkylnaphthalene. An oxidation product slurry is subjected to solid-liquid separation when the concentration of the naphthalenedicarboxylic acid in the slurry is 8 to 30% by weight. The process prevents the by-production of benzotricarboxylic acid such as trimellitic acid, thereby drastically reducing the incorporation of heavy metal complexes with trimellitic acid into naphthalenedicarboxylic acid crystals. The process optionally includes the addition of a polymer flocculant, this forming crystal aggregates with a large particle size and facilitating the separation of the crystals from the mother liquor.

摘要:
A method for producing high purity terephthalic acid wherein a slurry having an acetic acid solvent and, dispersed therein, crude terephthalic acid crystals which has been prepared by subjecting a p-alkyl benzene to a liquid phase oxidation in a solvent of acetic acid is continuously converted to a water slurry by the mother liquid exchange, and then the resultant water slurry is subjected to a hydrogenation treatment, which comprises introducing the above acetic acid slurry to a tower having a center axis having a plurality of agitating blades at the top thereof, to form a region having a high concentration of terephthalic acid crystals in the tower through the sedimentation of the terephthalic acid crystals, supplying the water for substitution to the bottom of the tower in such a manner to form an upward water flow while generating a revolving flow of the high concentration region by the rotation of the agitation blade, to thereby subject said terephthalic acid crystals and said upward water flow to a counter-flow contact, and taking out the acetic acid from a portion being upper than the supply port for the acetic acid slurry while withdrawing the terephthalic acid crystals having contacted with the upward water flow together with the water for substitution from the tower bottom. The above method allows the substitution of the acetic acid solvent of the acetic acid slurry with water, with a high substitution percentage.

C. in the presence of trimethyl trimellitate as an essential solvent and optionally, at least one solvent selected from methyl benzoate, methyl toluate and dimethyl o-phthalate preferably by at least two-stage continuous reaction method. The above process is capable of enhancing the rate of esterification reaction and producing purified objective product in high yield for a long period of time in a stable operation without causing any operational trouble such as corrosion and clogging the production equipment.
摘要:
A memory unit stores maps of predetermined determination threshold values for detection values detected by a hydrogen sensor according to an operating state of a fuel cell such as a difference in pressure between reaction gases at an anode and a cathode, supply pressure of the reaction gases, supply flow rate of the reaction gases and generated current of the fuel cell. A control unit obtains a predetermined determination threshold value from the memory unit based on the operating state of the fuel cell. Then, the detection value outputted from the hydrogen sensor and the determination threshold value obtained from the memory unit are compared, and in the event that the detection value is determined to exceed the determination threshold value, a predetermined protecting process is implemented for the fuel cell.
摘要:
When a shutoff signal is entered to shut off a fuel gas manufacturing apparatus, it is determined whether a PSA mechanism is in a prescribed shutoff state or not. If the PSA mechanism is judged as not being in the prescribed shutoff state, the fuel gas manufacturing apparatus is continuously operated until the PSA mechanism is brought into the prescribed shutoff state. Then, if the PSA mechanism reaches the prescribed shutoff state, the fuel gas manufacturing apparatus is shut off.
