  • Publication number: 20220241759
    Abstract: A regeneration method of a nitrogen-containing carbon catalyst includes the following steps: roasting the nitrogen-containing carbon catalyst in a nitrogen-containing atmosphere to obtain a regenerated nitrogen-containing carbon catalyst. The method is a universal method, which is suitable for nitrogen-doped carbon catalysts and can be used to regenerate a nitrogen-containing carbon catalyst for producing vinyl chloride (VC) through 1,2-dichloroethane cracking. The method can greatly reduce the production cost of the catalyst and increase the service life of the catalyst, and a regeneration process thereof is fast, simple, and controllable, and does not require high temperatures.

  • Patent number: 5100868
    Abstract: A two-step process for the preparation of a thallium-containing superconductive film is described.In the first step of this process, an aerosol mist containing reactants necessary to produce a calcium/barium/strontium/copper precursor material is provided. This mist is subjected to radio-frequency radiation while in the plasma region, and it thereafter is deposited onto an electrically grounded substrate.In the second step of the process, the coated substrate is contacted with thallium-containing vapor.
