摘要:
This invention relates to a process for thermally cracking waste polymer(s) comprising chlorinated polymers in a reactor in the presence of a fluidizing gas and a fluidized bed of solid, particulate fluidizable material at a temperature from 350.degree.-600.degree. C. to cracked products comprising a mixed vapor of lower hydrocarbons which have a chlorine content of less than 50 ppm. In the process, the cracked products emerging from the fluidized bed are passed through one or more guard beds comprising calcium oxide or a compound capable of giving rise to calcium oxide under the reaction conditions maintained at a temperature in the range from 400.degree.-600.degree. C. in such a way that the chlorine content of the product is less than 50 ppm.
摘要:
Cyclohexylbenzene is separated from a cyclohexylbenzene-cyclohexanone-phenol admixture by liquid-liquid extraction with a non-polar solvent such as hexadecane and a polar solvent, such as sulfolane, diethylene glycol, or mixtures with water. Cyclohexylbenzene is separated from the non-polar phase by fractional distillation. Phenol and cyclohexanone are separated from the polar solvent by fractional distillation.

摘要:
A process for separating dimethyl naphthalenes having a component comprising 2,6-dimethyl naphthalene in the form of complexes with a complex-forming compound, which comprises contacting a dimethyl naphthalene isomer mixture comprising at least 2,6-dimethyl naphthalene or a hydrocarbon mixture containing said dimethyl naphthalene isomer mixture with a complex-forming compound selected from the group consisting of nitro compounds of 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid, trimellitic anhydride and 2-chloro-5-nitrobenzoic acid, thereby to form a mixture of complexes of the dimethyl naphthalenes with said complex-forming compound having a main component comprising a complex of 2,6-dimethyl naphthalene with the complex-forming compound, and separating the complexes in the solid state from the reaction mixture.
摘要:
In a process for obtaining substantially sulfur free pure naphthalene from bituminous coal tar and thionaphthene as a by-product, a de-phenolized thionaphthene-containing naphthalene fraction from oxidative purification is extracted with concentrated sulfuric acid and acetic acid anhydride in benzene. The thionaphthene is converted into its sulfonic acid derivative and water washed from the benzene-naphthalene mixture. The benzene is distilled leaving pure naphthalene. The sulfonic acid group is cleaved from the thionaphthene with superheated steam to yield thionaphthene.
摘要:
Extraction of 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene from isomeric mixtures containing the same by clathrate complex formation with m-nitrobenzoic acid may be significantly increased by first purifying the m-nitrobenzoic acid before forming the clathrate.

Acetylenic compounds are selectively removed from hydrocarbon mixtures containing same by oxidation in the presence of a solid copper-manganese-oxygen catalyst. In one embodiment, acetylenic compounds are selectively removed from a conjugated diene mixture containing same by contacting oxygen and a mixture with a copper manganite catalyst under oxidizing conditions.

A process for recovering mesitylene and ethyltoluenes contained in a petroleum naphtha reformate by sulfonating the naphtha reformate with sulfuric acid and hydrolyzing the sulfonate product at reduced pressure.
摘要:
Isobutylene containing a minor amount, e.g. 0.06-0.10 wt %, of n-butene-1 is subjected to gas phase isomerization using hydrogen and Group VIII metal catalyst to convert the butene-1 to butene-2 with at least 65% conversion and no more than 0.3% hydrogenation of the isobutylene; butene-2 is more readily separated from the isobutylene by distillation. Isomerization conditions applied are defined by a pressure of 3 to 5 bars gauge, a temperature of from 40.degree. to 50.degree. C., a space velocity of from 150 to 300 vol/vol/hour, a mass velocity of from 1.1 to 1.5 metric tons/m2/hour and a hydrogen/feed volume ratio of not more than 2.5%.
摘要:
A hydrocarbon stream comprising C.sub.2 to C.sub.8 hydrocarbons is stripped at a high temperature to allow passage of the stripper bottoms stream into a reaction zone without further heating, and the effluent of the reaction zone is then heat exchanged against the feed stream to the stripper column to recover heat. Operation of the reaction zone at the desired temperature is achieved by adjusting the amount of the stripper bottoms stream which is split off for cooling by heat exchange against the feed to the stripper column. The cooled split-off portion is then admixed with the remaining high temperature portion. Adjusting the flow rate of the portion of hot reaction zone effluent which is heat exchanged against the stripper feed stream is performed to control either the temperature of the stripper feed stream or the temperature of the reaction zone effluent as it is passed to a downstream operation.
