  • Publication number: 20170174597
    Abstract: A method for preparing a phenolic oligomer antioxidant with a very small residual content of butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) is provided. Specifically, the method for preparing the phenolic oligomer antioxidant relates to a method which is capable of a BHT-free phenolic oligomer antioxidant or a phenolic oligomer antioxidant containing a trace amount of residual BHT by removing the precursor of BHT as much as possible by performing the concentration under the reduced pressure while injecting an inert gas to an intermediate product and/or removing BHT by performing the concentration under the reduced pressure while injecting an inert gas to the final product.

  • Publication number: 20170174599
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method that reforms flare gas or other raw natural gas source, using air without steam, to directly produce dimethyl ether (DME), a direct diesel substitute. The method first reforms an air-natural gas mixture at ambient atmospheric pressures, and then compresses the resulting CO-hydrogen-nitrogen gas mixture to 100-2,000 psi, and feeds it through a combined reactor which reacts the gas mixture directly into DME. The nitrogen is returned to the atmosphere. DME is an excellent diesel fuel, and can be used to displace significantly costlier and dirtier petroleum-based diesel fuel, while solving a critical problem with flaring or other wasted natural gas. For example, the roughly 120 billion cubic feet per year that was flared in North Dakota in 2014 could be converted into over 3 million tons of DME using the disclosed method.
