A composition and method for producing a tertiary amine is disclosed. The tertiary amine is contacted with an inert gas. The inert gas is nitrogen or more preferably argon. The amine composition is useful in producing polyurethane foam with lower levels of chemical emissions particularly lower emissions of toxic chemicals.

The present invention herein provides a process for making an aminobenzoate ester of an alcoholic organic compound. In one aspect, there is provided a process for making an aminobenzoate ester comprising the steps of: (a) providing a reaction mixture comprising an alkyl aminobenzoate, an alcohol reagent and a suitable transesterification catalyst; (b) introducing an auxiliary alcohol to the reaction mixture; and (c) exposing the reaction mixture to conditions effective to provide an end-product mixture comprising the aminobenzoate ester.

Compounds according to formula (I) wherein Z is S, SO, or SO, may be prepared by a process that includes charging to a reactor hydrogen sulfide and an alkyl glycidyl ether according to formula (III), in the presence of a base.  The compounds may also be prepared by contacting an alkoxychlorohydrin according to formula (II) with a sulfide source.

A process is set forth for converting synthesis gas into dimethyl ether (DME) in a single step comprising contacting the synthesis gas with a bifunctional catalyst system having a methanol synthesis functionality and a methanol dehydration functionality. In particular, the present invention is an improvement to said process for increasing the stability of the bifunctional catalyst system, particularly when the process is conducted in the liquid phase. The improvement comprises introducing a methanol containing stream into the DME reactor such that the methanol concentration throughout the DME reactor is maintained at a concentration greater than 1.0%, generally between 4.0% and 8.0%. In one embodiment of the present invention, the methanol containing stream comprises at least a portion of the byproduct methanol from the DME reactor such that said portion of byproduct methanol is introduced into the DME reactor as a recycle stream.

Pressure swing adsorption to remove CO.sub.2 from a gas stream is conducted using an improved alumina obtained by impregnating a starting alumina with a basic solution having a pH of at least 9, e.g. of a basic compound such as KHCO.sub.3, and drying at a temperature low enough to avoid decomposing the basic compound to a form which adsorbs CO.sub.2 such that the compound does not regenerate under reduced pressure purging.

The present invention is a synthesis, product and process for activated carbon and preferably carbon molecular sieve separation of air to produce a nitrogen product wherein a carbon is partially pyrolyzed, impregnated with a transition metal salt and further pyrolyzed to develop enhanced microporosity. The resulting microporous carbon can then be activated with carbon dioxide or steam and then pore-sized by cracking of hydrocarbons on the carbon to produce a carbon molecular sieve.

Transition metal salt impregnated carbon

The present invention is a nitrogen pressure swing adsorption process for separating gas mixtures containing nitrogen and oxygen, such as air, using a unique gas transfer process step, continuous feed gas introduction and an appropriate isolation step with continued product purge/repressurization to achieve high purity nitrogen product of 99.9% or greater by volume nitrogen, preferably 99.99% or greater by volume of nitrogen.
