Latest Patents
One of Maurer's latest patents is a continuous hydrogenation process. This invention focuses on a method where a hydrogenable compound is dissolved in a working solution with hydrogen and a heterogeneous catalyst. A key feature of this process is the recycling of at least part of the hydrogen-containing waste hydrogenation gas generated during the reaction. The gas is compressed and then reintroduced into the hydrogenation reactor using a jet pump. This method is particularly effective for the hydrogenation step in the anthraquinone process for producing hydrogen peroxide. Another significant patent is related to the production of hydrogen peroxide through the anthraquinone process, which includes hydrogenation, oxidation, and extraction steps. The oxidation waste gas is utilized as a propellant jet, creating a vacuum for auxiliary processes such as drying and distillation.
