摘要:
Glyceride-containing feed for a base catalyzed transesterification with lower alkanol to make biodiesel is pretreated with glycerin separated during the transesterification to partially convert glycerides with lower alkanol contained in the separated glycerin using base catalyst in the separated glycerin while reducing the free fatty acid and phosphorus compound concentrations in the glyceride-containing feed. Unique producer compositions are provided by the pretreatment processes.
摘要:
The effluent from an acid esterification of free fatty acid with alkanol to produce alkyl ester of fatty acid is contacted with glycerin to remove water and alkanol. The alkanol separated with the glycerin can be recycled to the acid esterification by contacting the glycerin with fatty acid-containing feed being passed to the acid esterification.
摘要:
Basic metal salt of glycerin is used as transesterification catalyst or an intermediate to an anhydrous transesterification catalyst for the base catalyzed process for making biodiesel from fats and oils.
摘要:
The present invention relates to the use of at least one solid compound that when used with a polymerization catalyst in a polymerization process results in a phase change of the solid compound to a liquid that renders the polymerization catalyst substantially or completely inactive.
摘要:
Catalyst compositions and methods, useful in polymerization processes, utilizing at least two metal compounds are disclosed. At least one of the metal compounds is a Group 15 containing metal compound and the other metal compound is preferably a bulky ligand metallocene-type catalyst. The invention also discloses a new polyolefin, generally polyethylene, particularly a multimodal polymer and more specifically, a bimodal polymer, and its use in various end-use applications such as film, molding and pipe.
摘要:
An enhanced process for the production of a dianhydrosugar, such as isosorbide, from the corresponding sugar alcohol is described. The sugar alcohol is combined with an acid catalyst and reacted at elevated temperatures and at atmospheric pressure, eliminating the need for a vacuum. High selectivity and yields are achieved.

摘要:
The invention relates to a process for the polymerization of olifins in the presence of an activated catalyst composition comprising a single site catalyst precursor and an activating cocatalyst, which comprises contacting outside of a polymerization reactor a single site catalyst precursor with an activating cocatalyst before, during, or after contacting the single site catalyst precursor with a weakly coordinating electron donor that does not substantially polymerize during either contacting.
摘要:
This invention relates in part to processes for producing one or more substituted or unsubstituted hydroxyaldehydes, e.g., 6-hydroxyhexanals, which comprise subjecting one or more substituted or unsubstituted alkadienes, e.g., butadiene, to reductive hydroformylation in the presence of a reductive hydroformylation catalyst, e.g., a metal-organophosphorus ligand complex catalyst, and hydroformylation in the presence of a hydroformylation catalyst, e.g., a metal-organophosphorus ligand complex catalyst, to produce one or more substituted or unsubstituted hydroxyaldehydes. The substituted and unsubstituted hydroxyaldehydes produced by the processes of this invention can undergo further reaction(s) to afford desired derivatives thereof, e.g., epsilon caprolactone. This invention also relates in part to reaction mixtures containing one or more substituted or unsubstituted hydroxyaldehydes as principal product(s) of reaction.
