MUMBAI, India, Sept. 12 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202413012557 A) filed by Kellogg Brown & Root Llc, Houston, on Feb. 22, 2024, for 'processes for catalytic paraffin dehydrogenation and catalyst recovery.'
Inventor(s) include Tallman, Michael J.; and Nagvekar, Manoj.
The application for the patent was published on Sept. 12, under issue no. 37/2025.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A paraffin having 2-8 carbon atoms may be dehydrogenated by contacting the paraffin with metal oxide catalyst(s) to produce light olefins, such as propylene, under certain reaction conditions in a riser, fluidized bed, or fixed-bed swing reactor. The resulting metal oxide catalyst fines contained in the reactor effluent stream formed by the dehydrogenation reaction may be recovered by contacting the reactor effluent stream with a wash fluid to form a catalyst effluent stream that is subsequently slurried and filtered to capture the catalyst fines for potential reuse."
