  • Patent number: 7666377
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for removing carbon monoxide (CO) from a gas mixture containing CO including contacting the gas mixture with a nano-gold catalyst to reduce the CO content in the gas mixture by CO selective adsorption/oxidation, water gas shift reaction or CO selective oxidation reaction. The nano-gold catalyst includes a solid support and gold deposited on the support, wherein the deposited gold has a size less than 10 nm, and the support is a mixed metal hydroxide and oxide having the following formula: M(OH)qOy Wherein M is Ti, Fe, Co, Zr, or Ni; q is 0.1-1.5; and q+2y=z, wherein z is the valence of M.

  • Patent number: 5665889
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the production of N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone with high selectivity. The method is characterized in subjecting 2-pyrrolidone and acetylene to vinylation by using hydroxy end-capped ether oligomers having a molecular weight less than 1000 or linear diols having at least 4 carbon atoms as co-catalysts under the catalyzation of alkali metal salts. At a vinylation temperature of 100.degree.-200 .degree. C., a reaction pressure of 7.5-30 atm and a reaction time period of 3-20 hours, N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidones are obtained with yields above 90%.

  • Patent number: 5569770
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the production of N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone by gas-phase reaction at atmospheric pressure. The method is characterized in that a gas-phase reaction is conducted by using N-.beta.-Hydroxyethyl-2-Pyrrolidones serving as raw materials, at a temperature of 300.degree.-450.degree. C., a space velocity of 500-4500 hr.sup.-1 in the presence of a mixed oxide of group IV elements, or an oxide of group IV elements, which has been modified by group I or group II elements.
