The present invention relates to catalyst compositions containing a mixed oxide catalyst of formula (I) or formula (II) as described herein, their preparation, and their use in a process for ammoxidation of various organic compounds to their corresponding nitriles and to the selective catalytic oxidation of excess NHpresent in effluent gas streams to Nand/or NO.

Catalyst compositions and process for direct production of hydrogen cyanide in an acrylonitrile reactor feed stream

Described herein is an improved conversion of nitrous oxide (NO) present as a by-product in a chemical process to NOwhich can be further converted to a useful compound or material, such as nitric acid.

Process for preparation of nitrogen oxides and nitric acid from nitrous oxide

A process for the ammoxidation of an alcohol feed, such as methanol, or a nitrile feed, such as propionitrile, or a mixture thereof, to form hydrogen cyanide uses a modified Mn&#x2014;P catalyst having the following empirical formula:MnPAOwhere A=one or more of K, Ca, Mo, Zn, Fe or mixtures thereof; a=1 to 1.5; b=0.01 to 1.0 and x is a total number of oxygen atoms determined by the oxidation states of the other elements present.

Process of catalytic ammoxidation for hydrogen cyanide production

A cyclic ketone/alcohol mixture is prepared by catalytic oxidation of the corresponding cycloalkane or catalytic decomposition of the corresponding cycloalkyl hydroperoxide. Gold supported on a porous crystalline silicate containing less than about 2 wt. % aluminum or a crystalline phosphate is used as a catalyst. The support material optionally contains one or more heteroatoms.

Catalysts for cycloalkanes oxidation and decomposition of cycloalkyl hydroperoxide

A process for producing a calcium carboxylate comprising contacting a nitrile compound, a calcium compound selected from calcium hydroxide, calcium oxide or mixtures thereof, and water at a temperature of about 90&deg; C. to about 250&deg; C. at a sufficient pressure and for a sufficient time to produce a reaction mixture comprising calcium carboxylate.
