Replacing chromium oxide with a gallium-tin-platinum system eliminates toxic residues while reducing reaction volumes in butadiene production.
Silica layers prevent cobalt aggregation on zirconia supports, enabling stable high-temperature operation and sustained olefin selectivity.
Solvent extraction and ion exchange recover heteropolytungstic acid from coke-contaminated catalysts, eliminating tungsten waste.
Extruded isomerization catalysts utilize a metal silicate clay binder to maintain structural integrity during hydrocarbon processing.
A catalyst combining palladium or platinum with lanthanides converts alkanes to alkenes at moderate temperatures.
Carbonaceous material combustion creates extra pores in dehydrogenation catalysts to enhance active site accessibility.
Periodic catalyst regeneration restores activity during alkane dehydrogenation, preventing rapid coke deposition and active phase agglomeration.
Metal halide-free catalyst compositions enable high conversion and selectivity in benzene alkylation, eliminating equipment corrosion.
Membrane assisted reforming process recovers waste heat from autothermal reformers to produce hydrogen while reducing carbon emissions.
