Abstract: The invention relates to a process for continuously preparing methyl mercaptan by reacting a mixture comprising carbon compounds with sulfur and hydrogen, wherein the carbon disulfide and hydrogen sulfide compounds which form are subsequently converted to methyl mercaptan.

Abstract: This invention is related to a preparation method of a supported catalyst Mo—O—K-MexOy for the synthesis of methanethiol from H2S-containing syngas. The catalyst comprises of an active component of Mo—O—K-based species, an active promoter and a support denoted as metal (or metals)-carrier. The support is prepared by electroless plating method in such a way that the metal or metals chosen are plated onto the surface of the carrier. Transition metal, especially Fe, Co or Ni are selected to be the plating metal, while SiO2, Al2O3 or TiO2 are selected to be carrier. The catalyst thus prepared is found to be efficient for the synthesis of methanethiol from H2S-containing syngasor carbon oxides/hydrogen mixtures, especially regarding a minor formation of the by-product CO2.

Abstract: A method is described to prepare a Mo containing supported catalyst comprising TeO2 as active promoter and a process for preparing methanethiol in the presence of said catalyst.

Abstract: The invention relates to a reaction vessel in which hydrogen sulphide is prepared from sulphur and hydrogen, wherein the reaction vessel consists partly or entirely of a material which is resistant to the reaction mixture, its compounds or elements and retains its resistance even at high temperatures.

Abstract: The present invention refers to a continuous process for the manufacture of methyl mercaptan using Mo—O—K-based catalysts. It is further described that the total selectivity of methylmercaptan can be increased by at least 1% by lowering the total gas hourly space velocity. The invention further refers to a process for the preparation of a solid, preformed catalyst system.

Abstract: The present invention refers to a catalyst for the manufacture of methyl mercaptan from carbon oxides comprising Mo and K compounds and oxides or sulfides of metals chosen from the manganese group. The improvement of the present process consists of the fact that carbon dioxide can be converted with higher conversions and selectivities to methyl mercaptan as compared to state-of-the-art technologies, with only minor amounts of carbon monoxide being formed as side product. Simultaneously, carbon monoxide can be easily converted into carbon dioxide and hydrogen by reaction with water using established water-gas-shift-technologies thus increasing the overall selectivity to methyl mercaptan.
