Abstract:
A process for the catalytic conversion of various chlorinated alkane byproducts and waste products especially to reaction products including a useful or salable less chlorinated alkene, in which a chlorinated alkane feedstock is reacted with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst including a Group VIII metal such as platinum in elemental or compound form, and a Group IB metal such as copper in elemental or compound form.
Abstract:
A process for the catalytic conversion of 1,1,1,2-tetrachloroethane to reaction products including vinylidene chloride in a commercially substantial proportion, in which 1,1,1,2-tetrachloroethane is reacted with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst including a Group VIII metal such as platinum in elemental or compound form, and a Group IB metal such as copper in elemental or compound form.
Abstract:
A process for the catalytic conversion of 2-chloropropane to propylene, characterized in that 2-chloropropane is reacted with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst including a Group VIII metal such as platinum in elemental or compound form, and a Group IB metal such as copper in elemental or compound form.
