Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 161 words
A method for simultaneously carrying out a catalytic reaction wherein hydrogen is evolved and a catalytic reaction wherein hydrogen is consumed, said method comprising conducting each of said reactions in separate reaction zones isolated from one another by a membrane partition made of a catalytic material consisting essentially of palladium or alloys thereof and selectively permeable to hydrogen only, wherein in one reaction zone hydrogen is evolved from the material fed to said reaction zone, and wherein in the other reaction zone, the hydrogen is combined with the material fed to said other reaction zone, the hydrogen evolved in the first reaction zone passing through the partition which is selectively permeable thereto, said material being fed to the other reaction zone being capable of undergoing hydrogenation or hydrodealkylation, and maintaining the temperature in said reaction zones in the range of from 300° to 500°C to effect reaction in both zones, the palladium partition serving as the catalytic material in both zones.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 161 words
A method for simultaneously carrying out a catalytic reaction wherein hydrogen is evolved and a catalytic reaction wherein hydrogen is consumed, said method comprising conducting each of said reactions in separate reaction zones isolated from one another by a membrane partition made of a catalytic material consisting essentially of palladium or alloys thereof and selectively permeable to hydrogen only, wherein in one reaction zone hydrogen is evolved from the material fed to said reaction zone, and wherein in the other reaction zone, the hydrogen is combined with the material fed to said other reaction zone, the hydrogen evolved in the first reaction zone passing through the partition which is selectively permeable thereto, said material being fed to the other reaction zone being capable of undergoing hydrogenation or hydrodealkylation, and maintaining the temperature in said reaction zones in the range of from 300° to 500°C to effect reaction in both zones, the palladium partition serving as the catalytic material in both zones.
