  • Publication number: 20170101366
    Abstract: An integrated process for making di-functional or multi-functional molecules with concurrent light paraffin upgrading is disclosed. The process involves three primary steps: (1) oxidation of an iso-paraffin to alkyl hydroperoxide and alcohol; (2) converting the alkyl hydroperoxide and alcohol to dialkyl peroxide; and (3) coupling functional molecules into di-functional or multi-functional molecules using the dialkyl peroxide as a radical initiator, while the dialkyl peroxide is converted to a tertiary alcohol. The functional molecules include any functional molecule R—X, where R is a hydrocarbyl group and X is a functional group such as —OH, —CN, —C(O)OH, —NH—, or the like.

  • Publication number: 20170101367
    Abstract: This invention relates to a process for operating a gas phase phosgenation plant (100) to form an isocyanate (4) by reacting an amine (2) with phosgene (1), in which the gas phase phosgenation plant is started up by first charging the plant with phosgene. At the same time as, or after the first charge of phosgene, the amine supply devices are rendered inert using a hot inert gas stream (30). Then, amine is admixed for the first time. In this way and by maintaining a pressure drop in the amine and phosgene devices to the mixing zone, the back mixing of phosgene into the amine-containing reactant stream during start-up is prevented.

  • Publication number: 20170101368
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for preparing isocyanates by the phosgenation of the corresponding amines in which problems resulting from the formation of deposits in apparatuses of the reaction segment during activation (starting) and deactivation (termination) of the method can be prevented by processing measures, in particular ensuring that there is a surplus of phosgene relative to the phosgenating amine during the critical starting and termination steps of the method.
