Abstract:
Herewith are the two processes developed by Nitto, which produce N-containing compounds such as hydrogen cyanide and methylamines. These processes are characterized by unique selective catalysts: an Fe–Sb–O based fluid-bed catalyst for ammoxidation of methanol and a shape-selective zeolite catalyst for ammonolysis of methanol.
