Abstract

539,488. Aldehydes. BRITISH CELANESE, Ltd. March 11, 1940, No. 4506. Convention date, March 11, 1939. Drawings to Specification. [Class 2 (iii)] Aldehydes are produced by the oxidation of an alcohol vapour such as the vapour of ethyl, methyl, propyl and butyl alcohols with.air and a volume of inert gas such as nitrogen which is at least equal to the combined volumes of the alcohol and air, the mixture being passed through a reaction zone at 750-900‹ F. so that it passes through the zone in one-twentieth to three-quarters of a second. Preferably the oxygen present is insufficient to oxidize all the aldehyde. The linear velocity of the gases may be 25-200 feet per second. Oxidation catalysts may be used, and the pressure may be atmospheric, reduced or increased. An example describes the oxidation of ethyl alcohol with reference to a diagrammatic drawing. Specification 389,134 is referred to.
