Abstract:
A process for the preparation of 1,2-dichloroethane by oxychlorination of ethene in the presence of a copper-containing fixed-bed catalyst comprising a bed essentially consisting of catalyst particles which comprise, at least partially, support material impregnated with an active component and, if desired, a promoter, where the catalyst bed comprises essentially no separate inert material for dilution.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a catalyst for heterogeneously catalyzed reaction, containing an active component and a catalyst carrier containing δ-Al2O3 of the amount detectable by an X-ray diffraction method, particularly a catalyst for oxychlorination of ethylene to 1,2-dichloroethane. SOLUTION: A carrier containing δ-Al2O3 is impregnated with copper salts, alkali metal salts, alkaline earth metal salts and rare earth metal salts, or their mixture as the active component.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for oxychlorination of ethyene on a fixed bed catalyst in which the oxychlorination can be carried out without additional particles of an inert diluting material even at a high space velocity in a reactor. SOLUTION: This method is to produce 1,2-dichloroethane by the oxychlorination of ethene in the presence of a copper-containing fixed bed catalyst comprising a bed essentially consisting of catalyst particles comprising, at least partially, a support material impregnated with an active component and, if desired, a promoter and the method is characterized in that the catalyst bed comprises essentially no separate inert material for dilution.

Abstract:
Catalysts for the oxidation of sulfur dioxide to sulfur trioxide, consisting of a silica-based carrier and, applied on this, an active substance containing vanadium and alkali metal compounds, are prepared by dissolving vanadium pentoxide in an alkali solution, acidifying the solution with sulfuric acid, mixing the acidified solution with the carrier, molding the mixture and drying and calcining the molding. To obtain mechanically stable catalysts, a dissolved alkali metal silicate and/or silica sol are added to the alkaline solution before acidification, the latter process is carried out at below 35 DEG C. and the solution is then immediately incorporated into the carrier. The resulting moist crumbly material contains from 2 to 6% by weight of V2O5, from 35 to 45% by weight of H2O and from 15 to 50% by weight of SiO2. From 5 to 25% by weight of the total silica content originates from the dissolved alkali metal silicate and/or silica sol.
