Abstract:
A SELECTIVE PROCESS FOR THE CONTINUOUS DEHYDROGENATION OF NONAROMATIC C3-C5 HYDROCARBONS TO DERIVATIVES HAVING A HIGHER DEGREE OF UNSATURATION COMPRISING PASSING A MIX TURE OF THE HYDROCARBON, STEAM AND H2S THROUGH A SULFIDED METAL CATALYST AT A CONVERSION BELOW ABOUT 70%.
Abstract:
A process for dehydrogenating an alkane to form an olefin by passing it over a catalyst comprising nickel or cobalt sulfide and cerium oxide alone or in combination with barium oxide, preferably on an alumina support, at a temperature of from about 550* to 625* C. and recovering the olefin.
Abstract:
System and methods for producing hydrogen, the system comprising: a reformer unit configured to generate a reformate gas via a steam-methane reaction that is aided by an iron sulfide catalyst; and, a shift reactor operably coupled to the reformer unit, wherein the shift reactor is configured to utilize the reformate gas to perform a water-shift reaction to produce additional hydrogen, and wherein an activation energy of the water-shift reaction is lowered by a presence of the iron sulfide catalyst in the reformate gas. Further systems use a water treatment system coupled to a steam generator, a reformer unit configured to generate a reformate gas via a steam-methane reaction, and a shift reactor.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a hydrocarbon synthesis catalyst comprising in its unreduced form a) Fe as catalytically active metal, b) an alkali metal and/or alkaline-earth metal in an alkali metal- and/or alkaline-earth metal-containing promoter, the alkali metal, c) and a further promoter comprising, or consisting of, one or more element(s) selected from the group of boron, germanium, nitrogen, phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, sulphur, selenium and tellurium, to a process for the synthesis of a hydrocarbon synthesis catalyst, to a hydrocarbon synthesis process which is operated in the present of such a catalyst and to the use of such a catalyst in a hydrocarbon synthesis process.
