  • Patent number: 6710193
    Abstract: Microporous and mesoporous metal silicates are prepared by the hydrothermal reaction of a silicon and metal source in the presence of a template. The choice of raw materials influences the purity and hence the catalytic activity of the products. A pyrogenic mixed oxide is used as the silicon and metal source. Prepared products have the composition (SiO2)1-x(AmOn)x, where A is Ti, Al, B, V or Zr and x is 0.005 to 0.1. Shaped objects of the microporous and mesoporous metal silicates are obtained directly by using a shaped object of the pyrogenic mixed oxide. The products obtained are used as oxidation catalysts.

  • Patent number: 6171568
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for the purification of exhaust air and/or effluents, which may be exhausted, for example, from auto painting units or furniture lacquering units, involving contacting the air and/or effluents with a molded body. The molded body is made from dealuminated zeolite Y and at least one binder, which may be, for example, bentonites, kaolins, sepiolites or attapulgites, and having a hydrophobic factor of from 1.5 to 6.0, wherein a slurry of the binder in water does not exceed a pH of 10 and wherein the molded body is calcined at 850° to 1100° C. The molded body is produced by a process involving mixing pulverulent dealuminated zeolite Y with at least one binder, optionally with the addition of a lubricant and/or a pore former, and optionally with water or an organic solvent, moulding the resulting mass to form a molded body, and drying and calcining the molded bodies.

  • Patent number: 5756778
    Abstract: A catalyst includes or consists essentially of the oxides of silicon, aluminum and titanium, characterized in that the catalyst particles are built up from a core with the composition (SiO.sub.2).sub.y (AlO.sub.2).sub.y M.sub.y, wherein x/y=10 to .infin. and M.dbd.H. Na, K, NH.sub.4, or NR.sub.4, wherein R is a C.sub.1-8 -alkyl, and a shell with the composition (SiO.sub.2).sub.n (TiO.sub.2).sub.m, wherein n/m=12 to 1000. Both the core and the shell have a crystal structure of MFI or MEL. The catalyst can be prepared by preparing a synthesis gel for the preparation of a titanium silicalite, thereafter introducing an aluminosilicate of the MFI or MEL structural type into this synthesis gel, and working up the synthesis gel in a known manner to obtain the product.
