| 20090275763 | CATALYSTS HAVING ENHANCED STABILITY, EFFICIENCY AND/OR ACTIVITY FOR ALKYLENE OXIDE PRODUCTION - A catalyst for the manufacture of alkylene oxide, for example ethylene oxide, by the vapor-phase epoxidation of alkene containing impregnated silver and at least one efficiency-enhancing promoter on an inert, refractory solid support, said support incorporating a sufficient amount of zirconium component (present and remaining substantially as zirconium silicate) as to enhance at least one of catalyst activity, efficiency and stability as compared to a similar catalyst which does not contain the zirconium component. | 11-05-2009 |
| 20090291847 | Catalysts Having Enhanced Stability, Efficiency and/or Activity For Alkylene Oxide Production - A catalyst for the manufacture of alkylene oxide, for example ethylene oxide, by the vapor-phase epoxidation of alkene containing impregnated silver and at least one efficiency-enhancing promoter on an inert, refractory solid support, said support incorporating a sufficient amount of zirconium component (present and remaining substantially as zirconium silicate) as to enhance at least one of catalyst activity, efficiency and stability as compared to a similar catalyst which does not contain the zirconium component. | 11-26-2009 |
| 20100056816 | SHAPED POROUS BODIES OF ALPHA-ALUMINA AND METHODS FOR THE PREPARATION THEREOF - This invention relates to shaped porous bodies of alpha-alumina platelets which are useful as catalyst carriers, filters, membrane reactors, and preformed bodies for composites. This invention also relates to processes of making such shaped bodies and processes for modifying the surface composition of alpha-alumina. | 03-04-2010 |
| 20100173771 | CATALYSTS HAVING ENHANCED STABILITY, EFFICIENCY AND/OR ACTIVITY FOR ALKYLENE OXIDE PRODUCTION - A catalyst for the manufacture of alkylene oxide, for example ethylene oxide, by the vapor-phase epoxidation of alkene containing impregnated silver and at least one efficiency-enhancing promoter on an inert, refractory solid support, said support incorporating a sufficient amount of zirconium component (present and remaining substantially as zirconium silicate) as to enhance at least one of catalyst activity, efficiency and stability as compared to a similar catalyst which does not contain the zirconium component. | 07-08-2010 |
| 20100298128 | Catalysts Having Enhanced Stability, Efficiency and/or Activity For Alkylene Oxide Production - A catalyst for the manufacture of alkylene oxide, for example ethylene oxide, by the vapor-phase epoxidation of alkene containing impregnated silver and at least one efficiency-enhancing promoter on an inert, refractory solid support, said support incorporating a sufficient amount of zirconium component (present and remaining substantially as zirconium silicate) as to enhance at least one of catalyst activity, efficiency and stability as compared to a similar catalyst which does not contain the zirconium component. | 11-25-2010 |
| 20110082029 | ALUMINA CARRIERS AND SILVER-BASED CATALYSTS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF ALKYLENE OXIDES - An improved carrier useful for preparing a catalyst having excellent catalytic performance when used in the production of alkylene oxide, such as ethylene oxide. The carrier is obtained by a) impregnating a preformed alpha-alumina carrier with at least one modifier selected from among alkali metal silicates and alkaline earth metal silicates, b) drying the impregnated carrier; and c) calcining dried carrier. The carrier may optionally be washed, prior to being impregnated by conventional catalytic material and/or promoter material. | 04-07-2011 |
| 20110136659 | POROUS BODY PRECURSORS, SHAPED POROUS BODIES, PROCESSES FOR MAKING THEM, AND END-USE PRODUCTS BASED UPON THE SAME - The present invention provides porous body precursors and shaped porous bodies. Also included are catalysts and other end-use products based upon the shaped porous bodies and thus the porous body precursors. Finally, processes for making these are provided. The porous body precursors, comprise one or more topography-enhancing additives, i.e., additives that are capable of at least marginally enhancing one or more of surface area, aspect ratio, pore volume, median pore diameter, surface morphology, etc. Downstream products need not necessarily comprise the topography-enhancing additives in order to exhibit the benefits of their inclusion in the porous body precursors. | 06-09-2011 |
| 20110160470 | METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE PRODUCTION OF SILVER CHLORIDE ON A SILVER CATALYST IN THE PRODUCTION OF ALKYLENE OXIDES - A plant and process for producing alkylene oxides to control the production of silver chloride on a high efficiency silver catalyst is disclosed and described. The process involves reacting an alkylene and an organic chloride gas phase promoter with oxygen over the high efficiency silver catalyst. The sulfur concentration in the alkylene oxide reactor feed is controlled to reduce the production of silver chloride which acts as a catalyst poison. | 06-30-2011 |
