摘要:
A process for preparing a catalyst for the oxidation of sulfur dioxide comprising:(a) intimately contacting a siliceous support with a mixture of a water-insoluble vanadium (V) compound, a potassium (K) salt so that the K/V molar ratio is maintained between about 2.5 and about 4.0, a source of sulfite anion, a water-insoluble sodium (Na) salt of an acid having a pKa between about 3 and about 7 so that the K/Na molar ratio is between about 4 and about 8, and water to form an intermediate product;(b) drying the intermediate product;(c) calcining the dried intermediate product; and(d) sulfating the calcined intermediate product; thus providing a catalyst with high durability and high catalytic activity with an alpha-cristobalite content between from about 1 to about 30 percent.The wet catalyst may be extruded into shaped forms such as spheres, cylinders, trilobes, or tablets before drying.
摘要:
The invention is directed to an integrated process for reducing the SO.sub.2 content of sulfuric acid plant off gases by (1) passing the SO.sub.2 -containing feed gas to the process over a specially defined multistage oxidation catalyst to convert SO.sub.2 to SO.sub.3, (2) absorbing the SO.sub.3 in water to form H.sub.2 SO.sub.4 and (3) scrubbing the off gases with aqueous hydrogen peroxide and/or sulfur-containing peroxy acids. At least the final oxidation stage of the process employs a supported CsVO.sub.3 or RbVO.sub.3 catalyst which is activated with cobalt or nickel sulfate and promoted with alkali metal sulfates, potassium aluminum sulfate or chromium potassium sulfate.

摘要:
This invention is based on the factors that both oxygen gas and oxides of sulphur as well as hydrogen sulphide are highly soluble in saturated, halogenated hydrocarbon liquids which are also dielectric liquids. The absorber liquid, saturated with dissolved oxygen and sulphur dioxide and/or hydrogen sulphide is then ozonated using the solvent or absorber liquid dielectric as the dielectric in an ozone generator. The sulphur trioxide produced by the ozone reacting with the sulphur dioxide and hydrogen sulphide in the presence of a catalyst (accelerates reactions) also carried in the liquid dielectric or, in the liquid stream at the ozonator, is then mixed with sufficient water to absorb the sulphur trioxide and produce the strength of sulphuric acid desired from the system. The sulphuric acid having a different specific gravity than the inert absorber liquid is gravity separated from the absorber liquid. The absorber liquid is returned to the scrubber or dissolver of the gaseous sulphur compounds for recycle use.

摘要:
A catalytic reactor for converting sulfur dioxide to sulfur trioxide, suitable for high throughput rates of up to about 500,000 standard cubic meters per hour. The reactor includes a plurality of separate reaction chambers each containing catalyst trays connected in parallel in the gas flow path. The catalyst trays define gas spaces and alternate gas spaces are provided with inlets for supplying a partial stream of the sulfur dioxide containing gases which are divided in the gas spaces. The gas spaces adjacent to the gas spaces provided with inlets are provided with outlets for withdrawing partial streams of the gases which have passed through the catalyst trays.

D R A W I N G IN THE METHOD OF PRODUCING SULFUR TRIOXIDE AND SULFURIC ACID FROM ELEMENTAL SULFUR, THE SULFUR IS BURNED WITH OXYGEN IN MULTIPLE STAGES WITH INTERSTAGE COOLING THE SULFUR DIOXIDE GAS STREAM IS SPLIT INTO SEVERAL STREAMS AND FEED WITH OXYGEN INTO A MULTISTAGE CATALYTIC CONVERTOR. A PORTION OF THE SULFUR TRIOXIDE PRODUCED IS RECYCLED TO THE FIRST CONVERTOR STAGE TO CONTROL THE TEMPERATURE IN THE CONVERTOR. A SECOND PORTION OF THE SULFUR TRIOXIDE IS RECYCLED TO THE FIRST STAGE OF THE BURNER TO MODERATE THE TEMPERATURE THEREIN. THE LAST PORTION OF THE SULFUR TRIOXIDE IS COOLED, PART IS CONDENSED AND THE REMAINDER IS ABSORBED IN SULFURIC ACID.
摘要:
A PROCESS FOR PREPARING SO3 IS DISCLOSED, WHEREIN SULPHUR IS BURNED IN THE PRESENCE OF AN OXYGEN CONTAINING GAS AND THE RESULTANT SO3 IS STABILIZED TO PREVENT DECOMPOSITION INTO SO2. THE STABILIZATION MAY BE BY MEANS OF A SUITABLE STABILIZING COMPOUND, SUCH AS LEWIS BASE, OR MAY BE BY WAY OF THERMAL QUENCHING.
