Isobutyl alcohol [78-83-1] forms a substantial fraction of the butanols produced by higher alcohol synthesis over modified copper—zinc oxide-based catalysts. Conceivably, separation of this alcohol and dehydration affords an alternative route to isobutjiene [115-11 -7] for methyl /-butyl ether [1624-04-4] (MTBE) production. MTBE is a rapidly growing constituent of reformulated gasoline, but its growth is likely to be limited by available suppHes of isobutylene. Thus higher alcohol synthesis provides a process capable of supplying all of the raw materials required for manufacture of this key fuel oxygenate (24) (see Ethers). 

Hydrogenation. Gas-phase catalytic hydrogenation of succinic anhydride yields y-butyrolactone [96-48-0] (GBL), tetrahydrofiiran [109-99-9] (THF), 1,4-butanediol (BDO), or a mixture of these products, depending on the experimental conditions. Catalysts mentioned in the Hterature include copper chromites with various additives (72), copper—zinc oxides with promoters (73—75), and mthenium (76). The same products are obtained by hquid-phase hydrogenation catalysts used include Pd with various modifiers on various carriers (77—80), Ru on C (81) or Ru complexes (82,83), Rh on C (79), Cu—Co—Mn oxides (84), Co—Ni—Re oxides (85), Cu—Ti oxides (86), Ca—Mo—Ni on diatomaceous earth (87), and Mo—Ba—Re oxides (88). Chemical reduction of succinic anhydride to GBL or THF can be performed with 2-propanol in the presence of Zr02 catalyst (89,90). 

Organometallic porphyrin complexes containing the late transition elements (from the nickel, copper, or zinc triads) are exceedingly few. In all of the known examples, either the porphyrin has been modified in some way or the metal is coordinated to fewer than four of the pyrrole nitrogens. For nickel, copper, and zinc the 4-2 oxidation state predominates, and the simple M"(Por) complexes are stable and resist oxidation or modification, thus on valence grounds alone it is easy to understand why there are few organometallic examples. The exceptions, which exist for nickel, palladium, and possibly zinc, are outlined below. Little evidence has been reported for stable organometallic porphyrin complexes of the other late transision elements. 

Zinc oxide in conjunction with one or more conventional ballistic modifiers-lead stearate, lead acetophthalate, lead-P-resorcylale and basic copper salicylate etc. Propellants exhibit good quality plateau burning over a useful pressure range for a wide range of burn rates [241]. 

The flotation process is applied on a large scale in the concentration of a wide variety of the ores of copper, lead, zinc, cobalt, nickel, tin, molybdenum, antimony, etc., which can be in the form of oxides, silicates, sulfides, or carbonates. It is also used to concentrate the so-called non-metallic minerals that are required in the chemical industry, such as CaF2, BaS04, sulfur, Ca3(P03)2, coal, etc. Flotation relies upon the selective conversion of water-wetted (hydrophilic) solids to non-wetted (hydrophobic) ones. This enables the latter to be separated if they are allowed to contact air bubbles in a flotation froth. If the surface of the solids to be floated does not possess the requisite hydrophobic characteristic, it must be made to acquire the required hydrophobicity by the interaction with, and adsorption of, specific chemical compounds known as collectors. In separations from complex mineral mixtures, additions of various modifying agents may be required, such as depressants, which help to keep selected minerals hydrophilic, or activators, which are used to reinforce the action of the collector. Each of these functions will be discussed in relation to the coordination chemistry involved in the interactions between the mineral surface and the chemical compound.

Modern WGS catalysts can be divided into four classes, namely, HTS, LTS, sour gas shift, and precious-metal-containing catalysts. Iron oxide or iron-chromium mixed oxides promote the WGS in the 350-450 °C range and are modified by MgO or ZnO for good sulfur resistance and mechanical strength. The second type of WGS catalysts are mixed copper-zinc oxides which promote WGS in... 

Lattner and Harold [56] performed autothermal reforming of methanol in a relatively big fixed-bed reactor carrying 380 g BASF alumina-supported copper/zinc oxide catalyst modified with zirconia. The 01C ratio was set to 0.22 while the SIC ratio varied from 0.8 to 1.5. The axial temperature profile of the reactor, which had a length of 50 cm, was rather flat, the hot spot temperature did not exceed 280° C which was achieved by the air distribution system through porous ceramic membrane tubes. More than 95% conversion was achieved. Very low carbon dioxide formation was observed for this reactor only 0.4 vol.% was found in the reformate. However, the WHSV calculated from the data of Lattner and Harold [56] reveals a low value of only 6 l/(h gcat) for the highest CHSV of 10 000 h reported. 

Methanol is synthesized from H2/(C0-1-C02) mixtures over copper-zinc oxide systems appropriately modified with stmctural promoters (AI2O3, Cr203). Working with these catalysts, KUer [21] has proposed that methanol would be produced from the CO component of the reactant mixture, carbon dioxide being present to maintain the catalyst surface partially oxidized. The site responsible for the reaction was suggested to be a Cu+ion, located in substitution positions in the ZnO lattice.
