Formaldehyde production from methanol over silver catalyst is a fast, exothermic process where dilution is used to control heat release. These properties are indicators of Process Intensification potential. The process is run adiabatically and produces hydrogen (currently left in the tail gas, which is burnt).

Produktbeschreibung
Formaldehyde production from methanol over silver
catalyst is a fast, exothermic process where dilution
is used to control heat release. These properties are
indicators of Process Intensification potential. The
process is run adiabatically and produces hydrogen
(currently left in the tail gas, which is burnt). To
investigate the possibility of using a combination of
heat exchange and a lower concentration of oxygen in
the feed stream to increase hydrogen selectivity
while maintaining the required formaldehyde yield, a
complete reaction mechanism is necessary. This book
combines a review of existing literature on the
mechanism of formaldehyde production over silver with
an extensive experimental investigation and
microkinetic modelling to give a clearer picture of
the reaction mechanism. It then outlines the pathways
and reaction species that require further
investigation. This information should be useful for
students and researchers looking at reactions over
silver catalyst.
