Heterogeneous catalytic processes

Catalysts played a major role in establishing the economic strength of the chemical and related industries in the first half of the 20th century and an estimated 90% of all of the chemical processes introduced since 1930 depend on catalysis. This has resulted in the build up of an enormous worldwide market for catalysts, which is valued today at some 5000 million per annum with the product value dependent upon them being a staggering 250 000 million. [Pg.10]

Heterogeneous catalysis is especially important in industry. Some of the major industrial processes that use solid catalysts include the synthesis of inorganic chemicals such as NH3, SO3 and NO, the various reactions used in the refining of crude petroleum such as cracking, isomerisation and reforming, and many of the major reactions of the petrochemical industry, such as the synthesis of methanol, the hydrogenation of aromatics and various controlled oxidations. Some of the major industrial processes to be catalysed by inorganic solids are shown in Table 1.3. [Pg.10]

Solid acids (e.g. zeolites) Paraffin cracking and isomerisation alkylation olefin polymerisation [Pg.11]

While the use of catalysts in secondary pollution prevention, i.e. the clean up of waste, has become well established and is likely to grow well into the 21st century, it is in primary pollution prevention (pollution reduction or avoidance) where there should be a spectacular growth in application and importance. The key areas of clean technology where catalysis can have a major impact are  [Pg.12]


Commercial or production reactors for heterogeneous catalytic processes are versions of the so-called integral reactors, so the fundamental process of design is integration. In particular, the necessary catalyst-filled reactor volume must be calculated that will give a desired production rate. This then includes finding conditions to achieve the desired production, at a certain selectivity and minimal operating costs and investment, to maximize the return on investment. [Pg.163]

Recently, in extending the reaction to aliphatic glycols, Ghera observed that p-nitrobenzoate esters gave better results than acetates, and that zinc acetate could be substituted for activated zinc. He has proposed that the rearrangement is a heterogeneous catalytic process, with the zinc acting as a Lewis acid ... [Pg.169]

Hydrogenation of unsaturated fats and fatty oils is one of the oldest heterogeneous catalytic processes of industrial significance, and is carried out exclusively by gas-liquid-particle operation, the vaporization of the fats being impracticable. Stirred-slurry operation is the normal mode of operation, the suspended catalyst being finely divided by Raney nickel (B2). [Pg.75]

Presently, there is a general consensus that heterogeneous catalytic processes play an important role in environmental issues regarding their high selectivity towards the removal of undesired side products, such as atmospheric pollutants, in comparison with that obtained from non-catalysed processes. However, such a benefit could be disputed in the future with the implementation of severe restrictions on standard emission of those atmospheric pollutants, particularly nitric oxide, which is a very challenging aspect. [Pg.418]

The conventional approach to optimize a heterogeneous catalytic process is based on heuristics, and trial and error, which could take a considerable amount... [Pg.195]

Restelli and Coull [AIChE J., 72 (292), 1966] have studied the transmethylation reaction of dimethylamine in a differential flow reactor using montmorillonite as a catalyst. They measured initial reaction rates under isothermal conditions for this heterogeneous catalytic process. Steady-state operating data were recorded. [Pg.204]

The following data have been reported by Mathur and Thodos [Chem. Eng. Sci., 21 (1191), 1966] and are sufficient for an initial rate analysis of this heterogeneous catalytic process. [Pg.536]

Many remarks advanced against heterogeneous catalytic processes do not apply to homogenous catalysis. According to opponents only few electrochemical processes are so far really competive with corresponding catalytic processes. [Pg.128]

This catalytic system was very flexible because by simple modification of the reaction conditions it was possible to prepare oxidized polymers with the desired level of carboxyl and carbonyl functions. No waste was formed because the process did not involve any acids, bases or buffer solutions. The incipient wetness process is very easy to scale up. Hydrophilic starch was prepared in batches of 150 L and incorporated successfully in paint formulations. Good results were also obtained with in vitro and in vivo tests for cosmetic formulation. Interestingly, this is a rather unique example of a heterogeneous catalytic process involving a soluble catalyst and a solid substrate. [Pg.69]

Firstly and primarily, it seeks to disclose the elementary (microscopic) mechanism of the catalytic act. Every heterogeneous catalytic process, like any chemical process, is based in the final reckoning on an electronic mechanism. It is the aim of the theory to elucidate this mechanism. This is necessary if the theory of catalysis is to rise above vulgar empiricism and to show how to control the activity and selectivity of catalysts, i.e., how to vary them to the required degree and in the required direction. [Pg.190]

Every heterogeneous catalytic process begins with the act of adsorption. Therefore, the theory of heterogeneous catalysis should proceed from the... [Pg.191]

Pulse radiolysis and pulsed laser methods are powerful tools to study the reactions at the interface between clusters and solution, such as fast heterogeneous catalytic processes, or transfer of the charges generated inside the particle. [Pg.611]

The EM studies show that the novel glide shear mechanism in the solid state heterogeneous catalytic process preserves active acid sites, accommodates non-stoichiometry without collapsing the catalyst bulk structure and allows oxide catalysts to continue to operate in selective oxidation reactions (Gai 1997, Gai et al 1995). This understanding of which defects make catalysts function may lead to the development of novel catalysts. Thus electron microscopy of VPO catalysts has provided new insights into the reaction mechanism of the butane oxidation catalysis, catalyst aging and regeneration. [Pg.122]
