  • Patent number: 6528031
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for preparing a catalyst for the reduction of nitrogen oxides by the use of natural gas as a reducing agent in an excess oxygen atmosphere, which comprises of filling zeolite with an organic compound having molecular weight of 100˜250 prior to loading catalytically active noble metal components on a zeolite. Since the method according to the present invention supports catalytic active noble metal components on a zeolite under the condition that the pores of zeolite are filled with organic compounds, the noble metal component, which is essential for forming highly active NOx reduction catalyst, can be supported precisely on the desired positions of zeolite pores. Therefore, the NOx reduction catalysts prepared by the present invention are very useful for the purification of exhaust gas in an excessive oxygen atmosphere such as gas turbines, boilers or lean-burn automobiles.

  • Patent number: 6191318
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing hydroxylated aromatics by using hydrogen and oxygen and more particularly, to a process for preparing hydroxylated aromatics by using hydrogen and oxygen with a two-component heterogeneous catalyst. One component consists of porous catalyst containing one of Group VIII B transition metals such as Pd, Pt, Au and Cu, and hydrogen transfer organic compounds such as anthraquinone. The other component consists of a catalyst containing a transition metal selected from Ti, V, and Sn with tetrahedral coordination geometry. The main advantages of this new catalytic system are to 1) overcome the drawbacks of liquid phase oxidation using conventional homogeneous catalysts, 2) avoid use of expensive hydrogen peroxide as an oxidant, and 3) improve the selectivity of the reaction.

  • Patent number: 5972305
    Abstract: The invention herein relates to a direct manufacturing method of hydrogen peroxide over zeolite, wherein transition metals such as palladium or platinum, and organic compounds such as 2-alkyl anthraquinone or the like are encapsulated onto the zeolite channels, and then reducing agents such as hydrogen, ammonia or alcohol are used in the reaction temperature range of 10.about.90.degree. C. under atmospheric pressure. In general, alkyl anthiraquinone used in the conventional manufacturing, method of hydrogen peroxide can be easily hydrogenated in a relatively mild temperature condition in the range of room temperature to 100.degree. C. by means of a compound having hydrogen. However, the use of alkyl anthraquinone in the reaction is problematic due to the fact that it can only be utilized in a working solution with a solvent which can effectively dissolve alkyl anthraquinoe.
