Japan - Germany Joint Research on Cl Chemistry

这一专项研究计划的主要目的是发展氯化学，即以一氧化碳、甲烷和甲醇为原料生产基础化学品和液体燃料的催化和相关技术的研究和开发。该研究项目最初是与德意志民主共和国合作执行的，但由于1990年10月德意志民主共和国和联邦德国统一，最终与新的德意志联邦共和国合作执行。根据1988年第一次会议期间的讨论，选择了以下四个主要专题进行深入研究。即：(1)多相催化甲醇羰化合成醋酸；(2)一氧化碳选择性加氢制醇、醛等含氧化合物。(3)新型沸石的合成及其物理化学评价；(4)甲烷的先进化学利用。通过多种合作方式促进了这一研究，即相互交换最新的私人信息、专有SAMP…更多的LES有待评估和访问研究人员。还举办了介绍文件的讲习班和讨论。结果已发表在国际期刊上，特别是在会议记录的特刊上，并在相关专业的世界各地的化学家中分发。本论文的选题概述如下：东京大学开发了一种独特的甲醇羰基化合成醋酸的催化剂。该催化剂由负载在活性碳上的镍组成。与德国中央有机化学研究所合作对催化剂的老化机理进行了研究。由于统一后德国化学工业的重组，催化剂的进一步开发尚待解决。通过北海澳大学和德国中央研究所的合作，研究了该催化剂的反应机理和作用，使合成气选择性地转化为乙醇、丙醇、乙醛等有用的含氧化合物。新型沸石材料的合成和改性已成功地用于甲醇选择转化为烯烃和/或芳烃，其中特别关注分子的孔内扩散和酸性的评价。开发了甲烷氧化偶联制取乙烷和乙烯的催化剂。较少

This particular research program was primarily intended to develop Cl chemistry, namely research and development of catalysis and the related technology for producing basic chemicals and liquid fuels from carbon monoxide, methane and methanol. Initially the research project was executed in cooperation with German Democratic Republic, but finally with new Federal Republic of Germany because of the unification of GDR and FRG in October 1990.Following four main subfects were selected to be intensively pursued based on the discussions during the first meeting in 1988. Namely, (1) Heterogeneous catalysis for carbonylation of methanol to produce acetic acid, (2) Selective hydrogenation of carbon monoxide to oxygenates such as alcohol, aldehyde etc.. (3) Synthesis of novel zeolite and its physicochemical evaluation, and (4) Advanced chemical utilization of methane.The research was promoted in various ways of cooperation, that is mutual exchanges of fresh private informations, proprietary samp … More les to be evaluated and visiting researchers. Workshops for presentation of the papers and discussions were also held. The outcome of the results has been published in the international journals and especially in an special issues of proceedings and distributed among the worldwide chemists of the related specialties. Selected topics are outlined as follows.An unique catalyst had been developed in The University of Tokyo for synthesizing acetic acid by carbonylation of methanol. The catalyst comprises Ni loaded on active carbon. Aging mechanism of the catalyst was investigated in cooperation with German Central Institute of Organic Chemistry. Further development of catalyst is now pending due to the reorganization of German chemical industry after unification. Reaction mechanisms and the roles of the catalyst were investigated, by joint work between Hokkaiao University and German Central Institute, leading to the selective conversion of synthesis gas selectively to useful oxygen containing compounds such as ethanol, propanol, acetaldehyde etc.. Synthesis and modification of novel zeolitic materials have been successfully studied for selective conversion of methanol to olefins and/or aromatics, wherein particular attentions being paid on the evaluations of in pore diffusion of molecules and acidic properties. Promising catalysts for oxidative coupling of methane was developed to produce ethane and ethylene. Less
