  • Patent number: 7838455
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method of regenerating a titanium-containing molecular sieve catalyst. Particularly, this invention provides a method of regenerating a titanium-containing molecular sieve catalyst used in epoxidation of olefin through simple treatment using a mixture solvent comprising aqueous hydrogen peroxide and alcohol. According to the method of this invention, when the catalyst having decreased activity is regenerated, the activity of the regenerated catalyst is equal to that of new catalyst and can be maintained stable for a long period of time.

  • Publication number: 20100249482
    Abstract: This invention relates to a method of preparing multicomponent bismuth molybdate catalysts composed of four metal components and a method of preparing 1,3-butadiene using the catalyst, and particularly, to multicomponent bismuth molybdate catalysts composed of a divalent cationic metal, a trivalent cationic metal, bismuth and molybdenum, a preparation method thereof, and a method of preparing 1,3-butadiene from a C4 mixture including n-butene and n-butane using oxidative dehydrogenation. According to this invention, it is possible to prepare catalysts having high activity for the preparation process of 1,3-butadiene only using four metal components as shown through systematic investigation of types and ratios of metal components, unlike conventional multicomponent metal oxide catalysts having a complicated composition of metal components.

  • Publication number: 20100125161
    Abstract: This invention relates to a method of preparing a multicomponent bismuth molybdate catalyst by changing the pH of a coprecipitation solution upon coprecipitation and a method of preparing 1,3-butadiene using the catalyst. The multicomponent bismuth molybdate catalyst, coprecipitated using a solution having an adjusted pH, the preparation method thereof, and the method of preparing 1,3-butadiene through oxidative dehydrogenation using a C4 mixture including n-butene and n-butane as a reactant are provided. The C4 raffinate, containing many impurities, is directly used as a reactant without an additional process for separating n-butane or extracting n-butene, thus obtaining 1,3-butadiene at high yield. The activity of the multicomponent bismuth molybdate catalyst can be simply increased through precise pH adjustment upon coprecipitation, which is not disclosed in the conventional techniques.
