The present invention relates to a process for the conversion of ethylene oxide to 2-aminoethanol and/or ethane-1,2-diamine and/or linear polyethylenimines of the formula HN&#x2014;(CHCHNH)&#x2014;CHCH&#x2014;NHwherein n&#x2265;1 comprising (i) providing a catalyst comprising a zeolitic material comprising YOand XO, wherein Y is a tetravalent element and X is a trivalent element; (ii) providing a gas stream comprising ethylene oxide and ammonia; (iii) contacting the catalyst provided in (i) with the gas stream provided in (ii) for converting ethylene oxide to 2-aminoethanol and/or ethane-1,2-diamine and/or linear polyethylenimines.

Process for the conversion of ethylene oxide to monoethanolamine and ethylenediamine employing a zeolite

An apparatus suitable for investigating solid catalysts and processes in which discontinuous fluid streams arise, the apparatus including: a reactant fluid supply point; a reaction space; at least one fluid mixing space; at least one throttle element; at least one pressure control valve; and at least one analyzer. An outlet side of the reaction space is operatively connected to the fluid mixing space via a connecting line and a substream line. The fluid mixing space is connected to the throttle element. The throttle element is operatively connected to the analyzer and an outlet line. The connecting line is operatively connected to the pressure control valve and an exit air line. The pressure control valve is arranged either downstream or upstream of the substream line. When the pressure control valve is upstream of the substream line, the outlet line is provided with a second pressure control valve and a pump.

The invention relates to a process for preparing acrylic acid from formaldehyde and acetic acid, comprising

Process for preparing acrylic acid from formaldehyde and acetic acid

A process for preparing acrylic acid from formaldehyde and acetic acid, is performed by (i) providing a gaseous stream S1 comprising formaldehyde, acetic acid, oxygen and water, where the formaldehyde content of stream S1 is in the range from 8% to 18% by volume, based on the total volume of stream S1, the ratio of the volumes of acetic acid to formaldehyde is in the range from 0.6:1 to 1.1:1, and the molar ratio of oxygen to the total amount of organic carbon is in the range from 0.02:1 to 0.15:1; and (ii) contacting stream S1 with an aldol condensation catalyst in a reaction zone to obtain a gaseous stream S2 containing acrylic acid.

Process for preparing acrylic acid

The present invention relates to a process for preparing acrylic acid from acetic acid and formaldehyde, which comprises (a) provision of a stream Scomprising acetic acid and formaldehyde, where the molar ratio of acetic acid to formaldehyde in the stream Sis in the range from 0.5:1 to 2:1; (b) contacting of the stream Swith an aldol condensation catalyst comprising vanadium, phosphorus and oxygen to give a stream Scomprising acrylic acid, where, in (b), the space velocity WHSV is in the range from 0.35 to 7.0 kg/kg/h.
