Title: The Innovative Contributions of Lisa M Budin
Introduction
Lisa M Budin is a prominent inventor based in Ponca City, OK (US). She has made significant contributions to the field of chemical engineering, particularly in the conversion of alkanes to alkenes. With a total of 2 patents, her work has the potential to impact various industrial processes.
Latest Patents
One of her latest patents is titled "Reactor and process for converting alkanes to alkenes." This invention relates to a reactor comprising two reaction zones and processes for the production of alkenes from alkanes. The first reaction zone includes a combustion catalyst, while the second reaction zone comprises a heating zone in thermal contact with the first reaction zone. The process involves generating heat and an effluent by the combustion of a fuel with oxygen in the first reaction zone. The alkane feed is then passed through the heating zone of the second reaction zone, allowing it to absorb sufficient heat to initiate the conversion of alkanes to alkenes.
Another notable patent is "Oxidative dehydrogenation of alkanes to olefins using an oxide surface." This patent discloses a catalyst useful for producing olefins from alkanes via oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH). The catalyst includes an oxide selected from a group containing alumina, zirconia, titania, yttria, silica, niobia, and vanadia. Notably, the catalyst does not contain any unoxidized metals and is activated by higher preheat temperatures, achieving similar conversions at a considerably lower cost.
