Return to Russian/Soviet Patent Table of Contents A Method To Produce Higher Aliphatic Alcohols
Abstract A method is suggested to produce higher aliphatic alcohols from carbon monoxide and hydrogen at a pressure of 200-300 atm and a temperature of 160-190oC in the presence of sintered iron catalysts. To simplify the process technology and prolong the catalyst service life, the catalyst is immersed into a bed of circulating liquid phase consisting of high boiling hydrocarbons and alcohols. |
