Processes for the dehydrogenation of organic feedstocks
Abstract
Abstract ORGANIC COMPOUNDS ARE DEHYDROGENATED IN THE PRESENCE OF MOLECULAR OXYGEN WITH A CATALYST CONTAINING AT LEAST ONE OF THE ELEMENTS NICKEL, COBALT OR IRON IN ASSOCIATION WITH TIN, PHOSPHORUS, AND AT LEAST ONE OF ARSENIC, ANTIMONY OR BISMUTH TOGETHER WITH SUFFICIENT COMBINED OXYGEN TO SATISFY THE VALENCE REQUIREMENTS OF THE COMPONENTS OF THE CATALYST. OPTIONALLY, THE CATAYTIC COMPOSITIONS CAN CONTAIN MINOR AMOUNTS OF ALKALI METAL SUCH AS POTASSIUM. REPRESENTATIVE OF SUCH CONVERSIONS IS THE OXIDATIVE DEHYDROGENATION OF BUTANE TO BUTENES AND BUTADINE. THE CONVERSION PRODUCTS ARE VALUABLE COMPOUNDS PARTICULARLY USEFUL AS INTERMEDIATES FOR THE PREPARATION OF POLYMERIC MATERIALS SUCH AS SYNTHETIC RUBBERS AND THE LIKE.
