Abstract:
An improvement in the catalytic hydrogenation of an anthraquinone working compound is obtained during the production of hydrogen peroxide by employing a hydrogenation catalyst containing 0.05 to 5 percent of palladium dispersed over the surface of alumina supporting spheres, said spheres having substantially no pores larger than about 0.06 microns in diameter, having a BET surface area of between 20 and 200 m.2/g., and having the palladium metal penetrating the pores of the support surface no greater than about 50 microns.
Abstract:
A method for the preparation of catalytically active particulate material which includes sorbing hydrogen into the particles of hydrogen-sorbing metallic material, treating the particles with an ionic silver solution, reducing the silver to the metallic state and depositing it onto the particles.
Abstract:
A process for the production of kerosene jet fuels in which kerosene boiling range petroleum fractions are contacted with hydrogen and a catalyst comprising a noble metal and fluoride on alumina, the process being further characterized by control of the kerosene feed water content to a low level (e.g., 10 p.p.m. or lower).
