Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
48 words
A method for the production of a fuel comprising the removal of volatile organic silicon compounds from stripper overhead streams resulting from the synthetic primary alcohol production using Ziegler aluminum alkyl processes, hydrogenating the silicon-containing compounds herein over hydrogenation catalysts and using the resultant material as a fuel.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
48 words
A method for the production of a fuel comprising the removal of volatile organic silicon compounds from stripper overhead streams resulting from the synthetic primary alcohol production using Ziegler aluminum alkyl processes, hydrogenating the silicon-containing compounds herein over hydrogenation catalysts and using the resultant material as a fuel.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
26 words
A method as described in claim 1 wherein the catalyst is selected from the group consisting of Ni on kieselguhr, Ni on alumina, or copper chromite.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
24 words
A method as described in claim 2 wherein the hydrogenation is carried out at a temperature of from about 150° to about 300° C.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
24 words
A method as described in claim 2 wherein the hydrogenation is carried out under at least 600 pounds per square inch gauge hydrogen pressure.
