Abstract:
Methods for preparing phosphorus containing catalysts comprising a large-pore zeolite, e.g., zeolite Beta, zeolite ZSM-12, or zeolite ZSM-20, and a matrix which have improved attrition resistance. The present invention includes the catalyst compositions produced by the above methods. Also included in the present invention are methods for the use of catalysts prepared by the present method in hydrocarbon cracking processes. It is desired to develop cracking catalysts for organic compound conversion that have improved cracking yields and have good attrition resistance. This invention involves the use of large pore siliceous zeolites and a highly siliceous matrix to produce a cracking catalyst with improved cracking yields and good attrition resistance. The invention further involves the use of phosphorus and the use of selected sequences for combining the compounds in the manufacture of the catalyst to enhance the attrition resistance of the catalyst.
Abstract:
A diesel fuel containing an additive which improves the combustion of soot, for reducing the pollutant emission in the combustion exhaust gases from diesel engines by discontinuous burning-off of soot which has been precipitated in the exhaust gas filter, is described. For this purpose, a lithium, sodium or potassium salt of an aliphatic or aromatic alcohol, of a phenol, of an aliphatic acid or of a naphthoic acid, phenylacetic acid or cinnamic acid is added, singly or as a mixture, to the diesel fuel before the combustion of the latter in the internal combustion engine. As a result of the addition of the alkali metal salts, the ignition temperature of the soot precipitated in the particle filter is reduced, and the soot is oxidized at a temperature which is considerably lower than the normal ignition temperature. The regeneration range for the particle filter is therefore reached much more frequently in real running practice. This avoids a critical filter loading with soot, which can lead to filter damage during burning off. A further advantage of the process described is that, according to present knowledge, no additional substances with a health risk are emitted during running as a result of the addition of these alkali metal salts to the diesel fuel.
Abstract:
The flame luminosity of a methanol fuel is appreciably enhanced by the addition thereto of at least one flame luminosity enhancing agent selected from the group consisting of azine dye, triarylmethane dye, fluorescein dye, imine dye and anthraquinone dye, said dye excluding any metal component whose combustion product(s) tend to cause excessive wear in an engine operated with the fuel composition or tend to significantly interfere with normal operation of such engine or any of its associated systems, the flame luminosity of the fuel composition during burning being appreciably enhanced relative to the flame luminosity of the same burning fuel composition but to which no flame luminosity enhancing agent has been added.
