The invention relates to the use of a supported, platinum-containing and sulfur-containing shell catalyst for the partial or complete dehydrogenation of perhydrogenated or partially hydrogenated cyclic hydrocarbons. The present invention also relates to a method for producing a platinum-containing and sulfur-containing shell catalyst and to a platinum-containing and sulfur-containing shell catalyst. The present invention further relates to a method for the partial or complete dehydrogenation of perhydrogenated or partially hydrogenated cyclic hydrocarbons.

Platinum-sulfur-based shell catalyst, production and use thereof in the dehydrogenation of hydrocarbons

A process for producing and storing hydrogen includes providing an intermediate gas mixture having an increased proportion of hydrogen and contacting of the intermediate gas mixture with a hydrogen carrier medium in order to hydrogenate the hydrogen carrier medium.

Process and plant for producing and storing hydrogen

A method for dehydrogenating a hydrogen carrier medium comprises the method steps of providing a metal-containing catalyst material, an at least partially loaded hydrogen carrier medium, a metal-free reaction accelerator substance, transferring hydrogen from the hydrogen carrier medium to the reaction accelerator substance and releasing hydrogen gas from the reaction accelerator substance.

Method and apparatus for dehydrogenating a hydrogen carrier medium

An apparatus for generating electric power includes a hydrogen transfer unit for transferring hydrogen from a hydrogen storage medium to a hydrogen transfer medium and a power generation unit for generating electric power from the hydrogen transfer medium.

Device and method for producing electricity using hydrogen and a hydrogen storage medium

Methods for making acrylic acid, acrylic acid derivatives, or mixtures thereof by contacting a feed stream containing lactic acid, lactic acid derivatives, or mixtures thereof with a molten salt catalyst comprising an ionic liquid (IL) and an acid in liquid phase are provided.

Methods of making acrylic acid from lactic acid or its derivatives in liquid phase

Catalysts for the dehydration of lactic acid, lactic acid derivatives, or mixtures thereof to acrylic acid, acrylic acid derivatives, or mixtures thereof in liquid phase comprising an ionic liquid (IL) and an acid are provided.

Catalysts for making acrylic acid from lactic acid or its derivatives in liquid phase

Various embodiments may include a reactor comprising: a reaction chamber having a lower region defining a sorbent collection zone; a first feed device supplying reactants to the reaction chamber; a second feed device supplying a liquid sorbent to the reaction chamber; a discharge device connected to the sorbent collection zone for removing sorbent from the sorbent collection zone; and a cooling device for cooling the sorbent in the reaction chamber.

Reactor with cooling device

The present disclosure relates to converting equilibrium-limited reactions. Various embodiments may include methods and apparatus for such reactions, such as a method for converting equilibrium-limited reactions comprising: delivering a catalyst material to a reaction zone of a reactor; delivering starting materials into the reaction zone; reacting the materials to form a product; introducing a sorbent into the reactor; taking up the products with the sorbent; and collecting the sorbent once it is loaded with products in a collection zone of the reactor. In some embodiment, the reaction zone is separated from the collection zone in the reactor.

Converting equilibrium-limited reactions

The present disclosure relates to chemical synthesis. The teachings thereof may be embodied in methods for chemical synthesis and/or reactors for synthesis. The teaching may increase the conversion of equilibrium-limited reactions in a single pass through a synthesis reactor. For example, a method may include: introducing a synthesis reactant into a reaction chamber with a prevailing pressure p1; forming a synthesis product; discharging the product and any unreacted reactant; separating the product from the unreacted reactant; and introducing the unreacted reactant into a second reaction chamber with a prevailing pressure p2 lower than the pressure p1.

Chemical synthesis and synthesis reactors

Various embodiments may include a reactor for carrying out equilibrium-limited reactions comprising: a reaction chamber for receiving a catalyst; a sorption chamber for receiving a sorption agent; a feedstock feeding device; a sorption agent feeding device; and a gas-permeable element separating the reaction chamber from the sorption chamber, wherein the gas-permeable element repels particles of the sorption agent.

Reactor for carrying out equilibrium-limited reactions

The invention relates to a mixture, which is liquid at room temperature and which is composed of two or more compounds, which are constructed exclusively of the elements carbon and hydrogen and, in individual known compositions, form a synthetic substance mix that can be used as a heat-transfer liquid. The mixture is characterized in that the mixture contains at least one compound having at least two non-condensed, non-pi-conjugated aromatic units and is used in catalytic methods to bind hydrogen to or release hydrogen from the mixture.

Liquid compounds and method for the use thereof as hydrogen stores

Various embodiments include a reactor for implementation of equilibrium-limited reactions comprising: a reaction space; a reactant feed; an outlet for reaction products; a device for accommodating catalyst material; and a stirrer device comprising: a hollow shaft with a gas inlet opening at one end of the hollow shaft; a first stirrer paddle with gas exit orifices mounted on the hollow shaft; and a second stirrer paddle mounted on the hollow shaft proximate the device for accommodating the catalyst material.

Reactor and method for equilibrium-limited reactions

A system for storing energy includes a hydrogen production unit for producing hydrogen, a hydrogen storage device for storing hydrogen, with a loading unit for loading a carrier medium with the hydrogen produced in the hydrogen production unit and with an unloading unit for unloading the hydrogen from the loaded carrier medium, a heat generation unit for generating heat and a heat storage unit for storing the heat generated by the heat generation unit, with the heat storage unit connected with the unloading unit in order to supply heat.
