  • Ni—MgO—ZnO solid catalysts for syngas preparation and process for the preparation thereof
    Patent number: 9950315
    Abstract: The present invention provides a process and catalyst for the production of synthesis gas (a mixture of CO and H2) by reforming of methane with carbon dioxide. The process provides a direct single step selective vapor phase dry reforming of methane with carbon dioxide to produce synthesis gas over Ni—MgO—ZnO catalyst between temperature range of 600° C. to 800° C. at 1 atmospheric pressure. The process provides a methane conversion of 5-95% with H2 to CO mole ratio of 0.83-1.2.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 1, 2015
    Date of Patent: April 24, 2018
    Assignee: Council of Scientific & Industrial Research
    Inventors: Rajaram Bal, Rajib Kumar Singha, Chandrashekar Pendem, Laxmi Narayan Siva Kumar Konathala, Ankur Bordoloi, Sandeep Saran
  • Process for the preparation of phosphorous containing mesoporous alumina catalyst for selective dehydration of methanol to dimethyl ether
    Patent number: 9468914
    Abstract: The present invention provides an improved process for the preparation of phosphorous containing mesoporous alumina catalyst for selective dehydration of methanol to dimethyl ether. The process provides a single step selective vapor phase dehydration of methanol to produce dimethyl ether over phosphorous containing mesoporous alumina (P/Al2O3) catalyst at a temperature in the range of 150-350° C. The process provides methanol conversion of 45-100% with a selectivity of the DME up to 100%.
