Synopsis
The first volume covers the most important technological aspects of the use of molecular oxygen for catalytic oxidation reactions. Topics covered include chemical and chemical-physical characteristics of the activation of molecular oxygen; engineering concerns in the design of reactors for monophase and multiphase catalytic reactions; technical criteria for choosing the best operating conditions for catalytic oxidation reactions and advantages and disadvantages of using air, enriched air or pure oxygen as oxidizing agents, and of using ballast components other than nitrogen. The second volume addresses the safety issues associated with the use of oxygen in catalytic oxidation reactions. Safety requirements for industrial processes call for precise knowledge of the flammability and detonability limits of the reactant mixtures under operating conditions. Equally important is a full comprehension of the theoretical notions that govern the ignition of gases and vapours, whether by an external energy source, or by spontaneous ignition.
