摘要:
A process for preparing nitrogen-containing compounds which comprises contacting a carboxylated N-monosubstituted nitrogen-containing compound or a carboxylated N,N-disubstituted nitrogen-containing compound with a mixed metal oxide catalyst under conditions effective to produce the nitrogen-containing compound.
摘要:
Cyclic alkylene carbonates are produced by the homogeneous catalytic reaction of alkylene oxides with carbon dioxide during which process, polyglycols are formed. The catalyst is separated by distallation from the alkylene carbonate and is recycled to the reaction while associated with polyglycols. A purge stream is removed from the recycle to prevent an undue concentration of polyglycols in the reaction and catalyst is separated from the purge stream by acylation of the polyglycols enabling precipitation of the catalyst.

摘要:
A process is described for recovering polyester-grade ethylene glycol from crude ethylene glycol containing at least one component which has a normal boiling point below that of ethylene glycol, and which can form a UV absorber in the presence of ethylene glycol which comprises supplying to an ethylene glycol distillation system, preferably comprising a fractional distillation zone having an upper portion, a lower portion and an intermediate portion a crude ethylene glycol stream at a determined pH of less than about 7.5; maintaining within the intermediate portion of the fractional distillation zone a diluent having a boiling point below that of the at least one component, such as methanol, at a concentration sufficient to reduce the formation of UV absorber in the intermediate portion wherein at least ethylene glycol, the at least one component and the diluent, are present, and withdrawing ethylene glycol substantially free of the at least one component from the lower portion of the fractional distillation zone.
摘要:
A process for the removal of acid gases which are reactive with ethylene oxide from a gas mixture containing carbon dioxide, comprises contacting the gas mixture with ethylene carbonate containing sufficient amount of ethylene oxide, whereby the ethylene oxide reacts chemically with the acid gases to produce reaction products which are more easily removable from the gas mixture.
