Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 55 words
IN A PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF ACROLEIN BY CATALYTICALLY OXIDIZING PROPLYENE IN THE GASEOUS PHASE WITH A MOLECULAR OXYGEN-CONTAINING GAS, AT A TEMPERATURE OF 250* TO 400*C, THE IMPROVEMENT WHICH COMPRISES CONDUCTING THE REACTION IN THE PRESENCE OF A METAL OXIDE CATALYST, THE METAL CONTENET OF WHICH IS EXPRESSED BY THE FOLLOWING EMPERICAL FORMULA:
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 55 words
IN A PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF ACROLEIN BY CATALYTICALLY OXIDIZING PROPLYENE IN THE GASEOUS PHASE WITH A MOLECULAR OXYGEN-CONTAINING GAS, AT A TEMPERATURE OF 250* TO 400*C, THE IMPROVEMENT WHICH COMPRISES CONDUCTING THE REACTION IN THE PRESENCE OF A METAL OXIDE CATALYST, THE METAL CONTENET OF WHICH IS EXPRESSED BY THE FOLLOWING EMPERICAL FORMULA:
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 24 words
The process according to claim 1, in which the oxygen-containing gas is air, and the oxygen to propylene mole ratio is 1:0.5 to 1:2.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 23 words
The process according to claim 2, in which the propylene feed gas is mixed with steam in the ratio of 1:2 to 10.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 28 words
The process according to claim 3, in which a gaseous mixture of propylene, air and steam comprises a feed mixture that is blended and preheated at 200*to 300*C.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 35 words
The process according to claim 1, in which the catalyst is deposited on a carrier, the amount of catalyst being from 25 to 40 percent by weight, based on the sum of catalyst plus carrier.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 23 words
The process according to claim 5, in which the carrier is selected from the group consisting of siliCa, silica-alumina, diatomaceous earth and pumice.
