PROCESS FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF OXYGEN-CONTAINING CARBON COMPOUNDS FROM SYNTHESIS GAS

摘要

HOE 78/F 070 K Acetic acid, ethanol, acetaldehyde and possibly secondary products thereof are prepared by catalytical reaction of carbon monoxide and hydrogen. The catalyst contains, applied onto a carrier, salts or complex compounds of rhodium in a valency stage below 3, halide ions and salts or complex compounds of magnesium.
