The invention concerns a catalyst carrier comprising a fibre paper impregnated with a slurry comprising silica sol, micro fibres and a filler, wherein said micro fibres have an equivalent average particle size, measured with sedigraph method, from about 200 nm to about 30000 nm and said filler has an average equivalent particle size, measured with sedigraph method, from about 300 to about 10000 nm. The invention further concerns a method of its preparation, a slurry useful therefore, a catalyst comprising such a catalyst carrier and use of the catalyst.

Chemical product and process

The invention concerns a process for production of hydrogen peroxide according to the anthraquinone process comprising the steps of alternate hydrogenation and oxidation of anthraquinones and tetrahydro anthraquinones in a working solution comprising a mixture of alkyl-substituted anthraquinones and alkyl-substituted tetrahydro anthraquinones dissolved in at least one organic solvent, wherein from 10 to 55 mole % of the anthraquinones and the tetrahydro anthraquinones are substituted with one amyl group, and the molar ratio of alkyl-substituted tetrahydro anthraquinones to alkyl-substituted anthraquinones is at least 1:1. The invention also concerns a composition useful as a working solution in said process.

Process for producing hydrogen peroxide and composition therefor

The invention concerns a process of continuously producing hydrogen peroxide by direct reaction between hydrogen and oxygen in a gaseous reaction mixture in contact with a catalyst maintained in a reactor, wherein a gaseous reaction mixture containing hydrogen and oxygen is supplied to the reactor through an inlet and hydrogen peroxide enriched gas is withdrawn from the reactor through an outlet. According to the invention the temperature difference in the gaseous reaction mixture in contact with the catalyst between a position just after the inlet to the reactor and a position at the outlet of the reactor is maintained below about 40&deg; C.

Process for production of a chemical compound

The invention relates to a process for continuously producing hydrogen peroxide comprising the steps of feeding hydrogen and oxygen containing gas to a reactor provided with a catalyst; contacting the hydrogen and oxygen gas with the catalyst and thereby forming hydrogen peroxide, and; withdrawing hydrogen peroxide containing gas from the reactor; wherein the catalyst comprises a solid catalytically active material at least partially covered with a layer of a stationary phase different from the catalytically active material.

Process for producing hydrogen peroxide

The invention relates to a method of producing a catalyst comprising a porous support and a catalytically active metal deposited thereon comprising the steps of treating the porous support with a solution of a salt of the catalytically active metal and a reducing agent to achieve electroless deposition of the catalytically active metal on the support. The invention also relates to a catalyst obtainable by the method and a process of producing hydrogen peroxide.
