Temperature catalytic reactions

The polymerization process is a low temperature catalytic reaction. The type of polymer produced is strongly affected by the reaction temperature. Low temperatures give low molecular weight polymers, the kind useful in caulking compounds and as a viscosity index improver for motor oils. [Pg.94]

Hydrogen cyanide is generally produced in industrial quantities by high temperature catalytic reaction between ammonia, methane, and air (the Andrussow process). The stoichiometry of the process is ... [Pg.363]

As an example of low-temperature catalytic reactions, hydrogenation of unsaturated hydrocarbons is the most important industrial application. Chemical industrial needs are mainly for unsaturated hydrocarbons, which have reactivities that enable polymer or petrochemical product development. All the processes developed for the production of olefins, diolefins, and aromatics give a mixture of unsaturated hydrocarbons, which are not valuable as such further hydrogenations are necessary to obtain usable products for refining and chemical industry. Sulfur is generally considered to be a poison of hydrogenation catalysts. But in the case of hydrodehydrogenation reactions, this compound can also be used as a modifier of selectivity or even, in some cases, as an activator. [Pg.280]

Thermally induced deactivation of catalysts is a particularly difficult problem in high-temperature catalytic reactions. Thermal deactivation may result from one or a combination of the following (i) loss of catalytic surface area due to crystallite growth of the catalytic phase, (ii) loss of support area due to support collapse, (iii) reactions/transformations of catalytic phases to noncatalytic phases, and/or (iv) loss of active material by vaporization or volatilization. The first two processes are typically referred to as "sintering." Sintering, solid-state reactions, and vaporization processes generally take place at high reaction temperatures (e.g. > 500°C), and their rates depend upon temperature, reaction atmosphere, and catalyst formulation. While one of these processes may dominate under specific conditions in specified catalyst systems, more often than not, they occur simultaneously and are coupled processes. [Pg.1]

Nickel spinel, NiAl204, was used for making synthesis gas by C02 reforming of methane. The spinel structure is based on a cubic close-packed array of oxide ions. Typically, the crystallographic unit cell contains 32 oxide ions one-eighth of the tetrahedral holes (of which there are two per anion) are occupied by the divalent metal ion (N +), and one-half of the octahedral holes (of which there is one per anion) are occupied by the trivalent metal ion (AP+). These spinels are usually very stable and have been used for high temperature catalytic reactions [12,13]. [Pg.209]

In general, the acetylenic triple bond is highly reactive toward hydrogenation, hydroboration, and hydration in the presence of acid catalyst. Protection of a triple bond in disubstituted acetylenic compounds is possible by complex formation with octacarbonyl dicobalt [Co2(CO)g Eq. (64) 163]. The cobalt complex that forms at ordinary temperatures is stable to reduction reactions (diborane, diimides, Grignards) and to high-temperature catalytic reactions with carbon dioxide. Regeneration of the triple bond is accomplished with ferric nitrate [164], ammonium ceric nitrate [165] or trimethylamine oxide [166]. [Pg.662]

Other examples of the applications of optical activity to heterogeneous catalysis involve hydrogenolysis, racemization reactions, and optically active catalysts prepared from optically active quartz. At room temperatures, catalytic reactions, even those which involve the optical center, usually take place with little or no racemization. At higher temperatures, considerable racemization often ensues. Applications of optical activity to heterogeneous catalysis, although of much promise, have so far been relatively little studied. [Pg.14]

A very detailed model of the effect of intraparticle convection inside large-pore catalyts (e.g. selective oxidation catalyts) on the transient behavior of fixed-bed catalytic reactors was published by Quinta Ferreira [75]. Analysis of the transient response data fix>m fixed-bed reactors is in general more complicated than other reactor types as one has to account for the spatial and temporal dependence of the species concentrations and temperature. Catalytic reaction and chromatographic column can be combined in a gas chromatogrqihic pulse reactor. [Pg.45]

Ceramic hollow fiber membranes represent a relatively recent development due to their high specific area per volume. However, they are mechanically too weak to withstand the kind of environments one expects to encounter in high-temperature catalytic reaction applications. Another major problem still to be solved is the creation of the connection between the ceramic material and the steel tubing of the rest of the reactor [14]. [Pg.68]

The implementation of very effective devices on vehicles such as catalytic converters makes extremely low exhaust emissions possible as long as the temperatures are sufficient to initiate and carry out the catalytic reactions however, there are numerous operating conditions such as cold starting and... [Pg.258]

Sequences such as the above allow the formulation of rate laws but do not reveal molecular details such as the nature of the transition states involved. Molecular orbital analyses can help, as in Ref. 270 it is expected, for example, that increased strength of the metal—CO bond means decreased C=0 bond strength, which should facilitate process XVIII-55. The complexity of the situation is indicated in Fig. XVIII-24, however, which shows catalytic activity to go through a maximum with increasing heat of chemisorption of CO. Temperature-programmed reaction studies show the presence of more than one kind of site [99,1(K),283], and ESDIAD data show both the location and the orientation of adsorbed CO (on Pt) to vary with coverage [284]. [Pg.732]

The observation of two limiting kinetic forms was considered to be symptomatic of the occurrence of two reactions, designated non-catalytic and catalytic respectively. The non-catalytic reaction was favoured at higher temperatures and with lower concentrations of dinitrogen pentoxide, whereas the use of lower temperatures or higher concentrations of dinitrogen pentoxide, or the introduction of nitric acid or sulphuric acid, brought about autocatalysis. [Pg.52]

Despite the variety of methods that had been developed, by 1960 kinetic methods were no longer in common use. The principal limitation to a broader acceptance of chemical kinetic methods was their greater susceptibility to errors from uncontrolled or poorly controlled variables, such as temperature and pH, and the presence of interferents that activate or inhibit catalytic reactions. Many of these limitations, however, were overcome during the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s with the development of improved instrumentation and data analysis methods compensating for these errors. ... [Pg.624]

Mercaptals, CH2CH(SR)2, are formed in a like manner by the addition of mercaptans. The formation of acetals by noncatalytic vapor-phase reactions of acetaldehyde and various alcohols at 35°C has been reported (67). Butadiene [106-99-0] can be made by the reaction of acetaldehyde and ethyl alcohol at temperatures above 300°C over a tantala—siUca catalyst (68). Aldol and crotonaldehyde are beheved to be intermediates. Butyl acetate [123-86-4] has been prepared by the catalytic reaction of acetaldehyde with 1-butanol [71-36-3] at 300°C (69). [Pg.51]

In addition to ready thermal decomposition, 1,2-dioxetanes are also rapidly decomposed by transition metals (39), amines, and electron-donor olefins (10). However, these catalytic reactions are not chemiluminescent as determined by the temperature drop kinetic method. [Pg.265]

A low temperature catalytic process has been reported (64). The process involves the divalent nickel- or zero-valent palladium-catalyzed self-condensation of halothiophenols in an alcohol solvent. The preferred halothiophenol is -bromothiophenol. The relatively poor solubiHty of PPS under the mild reaction conditions results in the synthesis of only low molecular weight PPS. An advantage afforded by the mild reaction conditions is that of making telecheHc PPS with functional groups that may not survive typical PPS polymerization conditions. [Pg.444]

Work in the area of simultaneous heat and mass transfer has centered on the solution of equations such as 1—18 for cases where the stmcture and properties of a soHd phase must also be considered, as in drying (qv) or adsorption (qv), or where a chemical reaction takes place. Drying simulation (45—47) and drying of foods (48,49) have been particularly active subjects. In the adsorption area the separation of multicomponent fluid mixtures is influenced by comparative rates of diffusion and by interface temperatures (50,51). In the area of reactor studies there has been much interest in monolithic and honeycomb catalytic reactions (52,53) (see Exhaust control, industrial). Eor these kinds of appHcations psychrometric charts for systems other than air—water would be useful. The constmction of such has been considered (54). [Pg.106]

Catalytic reactions at somewhat lower temperatures also produce ethylene and other olefins. When coupled with a methane process to methyl chloride, this reaction results ia a new route to the light hydrocarbons that is of considerable interest. [Pg.513]
