Abstract: The present invention is directed to a special device for fast mixing and precipitation reactions of chemical substances. In particular, the present invention presents a reactor which allows an extremely fast mixing of at least two liquid streams containing highly concentrated dissolved materials from which solid metal compound particles are formed when at least two reactant streams meet, to which optionally a further stream, advantageously containing a dispersion or suspension, may be added.

Abstract: The present invention is concerned with the use of certain oxygen storage components. In particular, the use of special mixed oxides as oxygen storage components in exhaust catalysis is disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention is concerned with oxygen storage materials. In particular an oxygen storage material (OSM) is proposed which comprises a certain mixed oxide as the oxygen storage component. The oxygen storage material can be used in conventional manner in three-way catalysts or NOx-storage catalysts for example.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a process for the production of ion-exchanged (metal-doped, metal-exchanged) Zeolites and Zeotypes, In particular, the method applied uses a sublimation step to incorporate the ion within the channels of the Zeolitic material. Hence, according to this dry procedure no solvent is involved which obviates certain drawbacks connected with wet exchange processes known in the art.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a process for the production of supported transition metals with high dispersion. The latter are deposited onto refractory oxides without using a further liquid solvent. Hence, according to this dry procedure no solvent is involved which obviates certain drawbacks connected with wet ion exchange, impregnation or other metal addition processes known in the art.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process and apparatus for non-destructive identification of encased autocatalysts which comprise metallic and/or ceramic support substrates which may possess a catalytic coating. The process comprises the X-raying of the encased autocatalysts and the identification of the autocatalyst by comparing the data obtained with a data bank which contains information about industrially manufactured autocatalysts. Optionally, the process may comprise further examination steps (for example weighing, measurement of the electrical and/or magnetic properties or photographic imaging). The process and apparatus find use for non-destructive, exact and rapid recognition or identification of encased autocatalysts and particulate filters.
