Mechanism of the formation of carbon dioxide in the oxidation of formaldehyde

Summary The ways in which carbon dioxide is formed in the oxidation of formaldehyde at 451 were Investigated. It was shown that not more than 3–5% of the CO₂ formed can arise by the oxidation of CO. The bulk (95–91%) of the CO₂ is formed directly from formaldehyde.

Study of the ethane oxidation reaction by the kinetic tracer method

The kinetics of ethane oxidation was studied at 320, 340, 353 and 380°C, mixture composition 2 C₂H₆ + 1 O₂, and total pressure 609 torr. It was found that at 320°C CH₂O and CH₃CHO were branching agents. A series of experiments was conducted on 2C₂H₆ + O₂ oxidation in the presence of 0.7% ¹⁴C-labeled ethylene. The ethylene oxide was found to form only from C₂H₄, formaldehyde formed from C₂H₄ and C₂H₆; and CH₃CHO, C₂H₅OH, and CH₃OH formed only from ethane. The formation rates of C₂H₄, C₂H₄O, and CH₂O were calculated by the kinetic tracer method. At 320°C the fraction of oxygen-containing products formed from C₂H₄ was 16–18%, and at 353 and 380°C it was 30–40%.

Electroflotation Recovery of Poorly Soluble Lanthanum Compounds from Highly Concentrated Salt Systems

Electroflotation of poorly soluble lanthanum compounds from model solutions simulating with high accuracy highly concentrated industrial salt systems was studied. The influence of various kinds of microadditives (flocculants and surfactants; cationic, anionic, and nonionic) on the efficiency of the recovery of lanthanum compounds from highly concentrated salt solutions was examined. For each supporting electrolyte (chloride, carbonate, sulfate, oxalate, nitrate), additives intensifying the process and enhancing its efficiency were found. The mean size and ζ-potentials of the dispersed phase particles were measured to account for the degrees of recovery reached in lanthanum electroflotation. A design of an installation for lanthanum recovery, allowing solution processing on the commercial scale, was suggested.
