Methods For Improving Syngas-To-Alcohol Catalyst Activity And Selectivity
US Patent:
8318986, Nov 27, 2012
Filed:
Sep 24, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/565944

Assignee:
Albemarle Corporation - Baton Rouge LA
International Classification:
C07C 31/08, B01J 27/51
US Classification:
568840, 502216, 502220, 502222
Abstract:
The invention herein provides methods of activating a catalyst composition. These methods include annealing a catalyst with an inert gas, under effective conditions, and then contacting the annealed catalyst with syngas to produce an activated catalyst. These steps can also be reversed. The activated catalysts can be employed to convert syngas into products, such as alcohols, with improved selectivities and yields.
Methods And Apparatus For Continuous Removal Of Carbon Dioxide From A Mixture Of Reacting Gases
US Patent:
2009014, Jun 11, 2009
Filed:
Oct 16, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/252545
Inventors:
Jesse E. HENSLEY - Arvada CO, US
Assignee:
Range Fuels, Inc. - Broomfield CO
International Classification:
C07C 27/00, B01J 8/00
US Classification:
518722, 422211
Abstract:
The disclosed invention provides methods and apparatus for producing one or more C-Calcohols (such as ethanol) from syngas, while simultaneously removing CO, thereby providing low COyields. The present invention provides reactors for producing one or more C-Calcohols from syngas, the reactors containing a first composition capable of catalyzing the conversion of syngas to C-Calcohols under reaction conditions and a second composition capable of (a) adsorbing COunder the reaction conditions and then (b) releasing at least some of the COunder different regeneration conditions.
