20090205945 | Process and apparatus for alkylation of benzene with aliphatic mono-olefin compound - Processes and apparatus for the alkylation of benzene with mono-olefin aliphatic compound in at least two reaction zones in the presence of solid alkylation catalyst use a crude distillation of the reaction effluent passing between reaction zones to remove a substantial portion of the alkylbenzene. The processes reduce the amount of heavies generated in an economically attractive manner. | 08-20-2009 |
20090275792 | Dehydrogenation process with water control - The activity of a dehydrogenation catalyst is improved by increasing the water concentration maintained in the reactants toward the start of the catalyst's life, but after the catalyst has deactivated to the extent that the temperature required to maintain the conversion per pass of paraffinic hydrocarbon through the reaction zone increases by at least 2° C. | 11-05-2009 |
20100248943 | Integrated Regeneration of Non-Noble Metal Catalysts - Regeneration flue gas streams containing unacceptable levels of CO can be effectively combusted (i.e., for more complete combustion or oxidation of CO to CO | 09-30-2010 |

20140238904 | PROCESS FOR THE RECOVERY OF BITUMEN FROM AN OIL SAND - The present invention relates to a process for the recovery of bitumen from an oil sand comprising the following phases in succession: (a) mixing an oil sand with a diluent capable of reducing the viscosity and density of the bitumen contained in said oil sand, obtaining a first mixture (slurry) comprising diluted bitumen; (b) mixing said slurry with a basic aqueous solution (BAS) possibly containing salts to increase its ionic strength, capable of removing said diluted bitumen from said oil sand containing it, obtaining a second mixture (BAS-slurry) which can be separated into (i) a liquid phase comprising said diluted bitumen, a fraction of oil sand free of the bitumen removed and water; (ii) a sediment comprising the remaining fraction of said oil sand free of the bitumen removed, water and residual hydrocarbons which can be eliminated by subsequent washings; (c) separating a liquid phase comprising said diluted bitumen removed, from said BAS-slurry mixture; (d) recovering, from said liquid phase separated in phase (c), the removed diluted bitumen contained therein. | 08-28-2014 |

20140196715 | ACID HYDROLYSIS OF LIGNOCELLULOSIC BIOMASS WITH MINIMAL USE OF AN ACID CATALYST - This specification describes a process of producing a monomeric sugar stream, with little or no acid addition, from an oligomeric sugar solution using the intrinsic features of the mildly pre-treated vegetable or ligno-cellulosic biomass, namely the presence of naturally occurring salts. This is accomplished by lowering the pH of the oligomer sugar solution with little or no addition of an acid and then exposing the biomass with the lowered pH to an elevated temperature greater than 80° C. for a time sufficient to hydrolyze the components of the biomass. | 07-17-2014 |
