Carbon catalyst

Appreciable quantities are also obtained as a by-product in the manufacture of hydrogen from naphtha-gaseous hydrocarbons. In this process the gaseous hydrocarbon and superheated steam under a pressure of about 10 atmospheres and at a temperature of 1000 K are passed over a nickel-chromium catalyst. Carbon monoxide and hydrogen are produced ... 

With palladium chloride catalyst, carbon monoxide, and an alcohol the labile hydroxyl is alkylated during carbonylation (199). 

At temperatures of 300—600°C in the presence of an activated alumina catalyst, carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide are formed in almost quantitative yields (29) ... 

If bromine is used in equation 8, carbon tetrabromide [558-13-4] is formed. With a minor amount of iodine present, and in the absence of iron catalyst, carbon disulfide and chlorine react to form trichioromethanesulfenyl chloride (perchloromethyl mercaptan [594-42-3]), CCI3SCI, which can be reduced with staimous chloride or tin, and hydrochloric acid to form thiophosgene (thiocarbonyl chloride [463-71-8], CSCI2, an intermediate in the synthesis of many organic compounds (see Sulfurcompounds). 

The space velocity was varied from 2539 to 9130 scf/hr ft3 catalyst. Carbon monoxide and ethane were at equilibrium conversion at all space velocities however, some carbon dioxide breakthrough was noticed at the higher space velocities. A bed of activated carbon and zinc oxide at 149 °C reduced the sulfur content of the feed gas from about 2 ppm to less than 0.1 ppm in order to avoid catalyst deactivation by sulfur poisoning. Subsequent tests have indicated that the catalyst is equally effective for feed gases containing up to 1 mole % benzene and 0.5 ppm sulfur (5). These are the maximum concentrations of impurities that can be present in methanation section feed gases. 

Notice that the rate law is first order in the catalyst, carbon disulfide, but zero order in triiodide ion, which appears only in the fast step following the slow step. 

The object of the present study was to use in the above mentioned hydrogenations improved carbon supported catalysts, which could compete with the Pd black catalyst. Carbon materials are common supports, their surface properties can be modified easily and it is possible to prepare carbons with different proportion of micro-, meso- and macropores, which can be key factors influencing their performances. A highly mesoporous carbon was synthesised and used as support of Pd catalysts in the enantioselective hydrogenations. To our knowledge this is the first report on the use of highly mesoporous carbon for the preparation of Pd catalysts for liquid-phase hydrogenation. 

On the surface of the Ni catalyst, carbon is normally produced in a whisker (or filamentous) form. According to Rostrup-Nielsen, carbon formation is avoided when the concentration of carbon dissolved in Ni crystal is smaller than that at the equilibrium. The steady-state activity is proportional to [C ], which can be expressed by the following equation ... 

The use of carbon-based catalysts offers certain advantages over metal catalysts due to their availability, durability, and low cost. In contrast to the metal-based catalysts, carbon catalysts are sulfur resistant and can withstand much higher temperatures. Muradov [98,99] screened a variety of carbon materials and demonstrated that the efficient catalytic methane decomposition can be accomplished over high surface area carbons at temperatures... 

The book focuses on three main themes catalyst preparation and activation, reaction mechanism, and process-related topics. A panel of expert contributors discusses synthesis of catalysts, carbon nanomaterials, nitric oxide calcinations, the influence of carbon, catalytic performance issues, chelating agents, and Cu and alkali promoters. They also explore Co/silica catalysts, thermodynamic control, the Two Alpha model, co-feeding experiments, internal diffusion limitations. Fe-LTFT selectivity, and the effect of co-fed water. Lastly, the book examines cross-flow filtration, kinetic studies, reduction of CO emissions, syncrude, and low-temperature water-gas shift.

Rh > Ir > Ni > Pd > Co > Ru > Fe A plot of the relation between the catalytic activity and the affinity of the metals for halide ion resulted in a volcano shape. The rate determining step of the reaction was discussed on the basis of this affinity and the reaction order with respect to methyl iodide. Methanol was first carbonylated to methyl acetate directly or via dimethyl ether, then carbonylated again to acetic anhydride and finally quickly hydrolyzed to acetic acid. Overall kinetics were explored to simulate variable product profiles based on the reaction network mentioned above. Carbon monoxide was adsorbed weakly and associatively on nickel-activated-carbon catalysts. Carbon monoxide was adsorbed on nickel-y-alumina or nickel-silica gel catalysts more strongly and, in part, dissociatively,... 

Pure decarbonylation typically employs noble metal catalysts. Carbon supported palladium, in particular, is highly elfective for furan and CO formation.Typically, alkali carbonates are added as promoters for the palladium catalyst.The decarbonylation reaction can be carried out at reflux conditions in pure furfural (165 °C), which achieves continuous removal of CO and furan from the reactor. However, a continuous flow system at 159-162 °C gave the highest activity of 36 kg furan per gram of palladium with potassium carbonate added as promoter. In oxidative decarbonylation, gaseous furfural and steam is passed over a catalyst at high temperatures (300 00 °C). Typical catalysts are zinc-iron chromite or zinc-manganese chromite catalyst and furfural can be obtained in yields of... 

Another simple addition reaction is the hydration of C02 to form the bicarbonate ion. Without catalysis the reaction may require several seconds,4 5 the apparent first-order rate constant being -0.03 s 1 at 25°C. Cells must often hasten die process.

The carbon monoxide and chlorine gas feeds are mixed in the T-junction of the reactor and then guided through the catalyst bed of the reactor. The catalyst, carbon particles with a diameter of 53-73 pm, is preconditioned by heating the reactor at 150 °C for 2 h under a constant argon flow. A mixture of 2/3 CO and 1/3 chlorine (4.5 seem min-1) is fed into the reactor. The reactor was incrementally heated to 220 °C the pressure at the inlet was -132 kPa and nominally atmospheric at the outlet [39],...
