Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a process for the production of a mixture of cyclohexanone and cyclohexanol by oxidation of cyclohexane and decomposition of cyclohexyl hydroperoxide.
Abstract:
Process for oxidizing cyclohexane in which oxygen is contacted with cyclohexane at a pre-selected feed rate in a first reaction zone and unconsumed oxygen is contacted with cyclohexane in a second reaction zone in which the cyclohexane feed rate is lower than the pre-selected feed rate.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a process for reducing or substantially eliminating chromium in non-volatile residue obtained from a certain processes, and particularly from cyclohexane oxidation processes.

Abstract:
A method for reducing the concentration of cyclohexenone in a cyclohexenone-containing organic mixture is disclosed. The method includes contacting an organic mixture comprising cyclohexenone with an effective amount of at least one of sulfurous acid, a salt of sulfurous acid, an alkali hydroxide, or a mixture of two or more of these compounds.
