Homogeneous Carbonylation and Hydroformylation Reactions

Homogeneous Carbonylation and Hydroformylation Reactions with Homogeneous Catalysts and Process Development, a volume is in the Advances in Catalysis series, is split into two sections. The first covers the homogeneous carbonylation of various chemicals, such as methanol, methyl acetate, esters and ethers. In addition, some common carbonylation homogeneous processes such as water-gas shift and Fischer-Tropsch reactions are included. The second part describes hydroformylation processes like cobalt and rhodium based reactions. Both parts cover the design of catalytic reactors, industrial applications, economic assessment and environmental impacts providing detailed discussions of the subject from both a chemistry and engineering perspective.
- Includes fundamentals, reactor design, and process description of carbonylation and hydroformylation homogeneous reactions - Describes various carbonylation and hydroformylation homogeneous reactions - Explains carbonylation and hydroformylation economic and environmental challenges
