A process of a catalytic combustion is disclosed. The process can be started at a cold temperature and then raised to a desired high temperature in a very short time by employing a noble metal catalyst dispersed on a supporting material. Moreover, a method for dispersing a noble metal catalyst used in the catalytic combustion is also disclosed for increasing a specific surface area of the catalyst so as to facilitate the catalytic combustion. Furthermore, a substance including a promoter dispersing a metal catalyst therewith, and a supporting material supporting the promoter with the metal catalyst is also disclosed, so that a contact surface area of the metal catalyst can be increased, thereby the catalytic combustion can be initiated within a very short period.

Method and substance for reactive catalytic combustion

A shell and tube reactor module for hydrogen production is provided. The shell and tube reactor module includes a reactor having a shell side, at least one palladium membrane tube as a tubular section, and a steam reforming catalyst in the shell side, wherein the at least one palladium membrane tube has one sealed end located at upstream of flowing path

Process and reactor module for quick start hydrogen production

A noble metal catalyst supported on boron nitride (BN) is used for the deep oxidation of organic compounds. The superior activity of the catalyst provides an extreme low light-off temperature and a short induction period at the deep oxidation reaction of organic compounds in air stream. The catalyst outperforms the traditional oxide-supported Pt catalysts with respect to the life and activity. The specific surface area of BN ranges from 1 to 100 m /g, and the loading of the noble metal is in the range of 0.1 to 5.0 wt %. The noble metal can be selected from a group consisting of platinum (Pt), palladium (Pd), rhodium (Rh), Ruthenium (Ru) and a mixture thereof.

Boron nitride supported noble metal catalyst

An apparatus for producing hydrogen includes at least one reforming chamber containing a reforming catalyst bed for reforming a carbonaceous fuel into hydrogen, at least one hydrogen-permeable membrane tube disposed inside the reforming chamber to be surrounded by the reforming catalyst bed and to confine therein a hydrogen compartment, and at least one oxidation chamber provided adjacent to the reforming catalyst bed for burning the gas not permeable to the membrane tube and for supplying heat to the reforming chamber. The oxidation chamber has an oxidation catalyst bed. A process for producing hydrogen via the apparatus is also disclosed.

Process for producing high purity hydrogen

A novel process for the acetylation of a mono-substituted phenol or a mono-substituted naphthol is disclosed which comprises reacting the said mono-substituted phenol or the said mono-substituted naphthol respectively with vinyl acetate at a temperature of not more than 160.degree. C.

Process for the acetylation of a mono-substituted phenol or a

A catalyst and a process to convert commercial cyclohexanol feed to cyclohexanone at a relatively low temperature at stable conversion levels for long periods of operation. This process and catalyst allow operation in the presence of water and high boiling side products. The process features high conversion efficiency and low by-product formation, by use of an improved CuO-ZnO catalyst promoted with an alkali-metal compound such as sodium carbonate. The catalyst is stable in the presence of water and heavy end products in the feedstock (up to 13%). The presence of water rejuvenates the catalyst, increases the conversion and decreases the phenol content in the product mixture.
