Abstract: A pressure swing adsorption process is provided to remove oxygen from a hydrogen stream through the use of a copper material in combination with layers of adsorbent to remove water, C2 and C3 hydrocarbons, as well as other impurities. The feed gas comprises more than 70 mol % hydrogen, at least 1 mol % methane and more than 10 ppmv oxygen. The purified product hydrogen stream comprises greater than 99 mol % hydrogen, with less than 1 ppmv oxygen.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a process for separating oxygenates present in an aromatic hydrocarbon stream to obtain an oxygenates-free aromatic hydrocarbon stream. The process involves selectively removing oxygenates from the aromatic hydrocarbon stream by passing said stream through at least one zeolite based adsorbing material.

Abstract: This invention relates to the use of pore mouth control of microporous solids for developing novel molecular sieve adsorbents and their potential in the drying of alcohols. More specifically, the invention relates to the manufacture and use of a molecular sieve adsorbent, which selectively adsorbs water from azeotropic alcohol-water mixtures by pore mouth control of microporous solids with liquid phase metal alkoxide deposition on the external surface at ambient conditions of temperature and pressure. The prepared adsorbent is therefore useful for the commercial drying of alcohols.

Abstract: This invention provides a catalytic epoxidation of styrene to styrene oxide with molecular oxygen using cobalt containing zeolite. Catalytic epoxidation of styrene-to-styrene epoxide was carried out using molecular oxygen in presence of Co2+ exchanged zeolites. Molecular oxygen from air is also useful for the epoxidation reaction at atmospheric pressure. The presence of adsorbed water molecules in the catalyst also increases the styrene conversion without affecting the styrene oxide selectivity. Various alkali and alkaline earth cationic promoters were introduced into the zeolite catalyst to increase the styrene oxide selectivity. The present invention explore the effect of adsorbed water molecules and alkali and alkaline earth metal cationic promoters in the cobalt exchanged zeolite catalyst, on the styrene conversion and styrene oxide selectivity for the catalytic epoxidation of styrene to styrene oxide with molecular oxygen.

Abstract: This invention relates to the use of pore mouth control of zeolite NaA for developing a novel molecular sieve adsorbents and their potential in the separation and purification of gaseous mixtures by the size/shape selective adsorption. More specifically,the invention relates to the manufacture and use of a molecular sieve adsorbent, which is selective towards oxygen from its gaseous mixture with nitrogen and argon by pore mouth control of zeolite NaA with liquid phase alkoxide deposition on the external surface at ambient conditions of temperature and pressure. Thus prepared adsorbent is useful for the separation and purification of nitrogen and argon from its mixture with oxygen.
