Abstract

An object of the present invention is to provide a catalyst ensuring that when a gas-phase catalytic oxidation reaction of a material substance is conducted using a catalyst to produce a target substance, the pressure loss and coking are suppressed and the target substance can be produced in high yield. The present invention is related to a ring-shaped catalyst having a straight body part and a hollow body part, which is used when a gas-phase catalytic oxidation reaction of a material substance is conducted to produce a target substance, wherein a length of the straight body part is shorter than a length of the hollow body part and at least at one end part, a region from an end part of the straight body part to an end part of the hollow body part is concavely curved.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A ring-shaped catalyst having a straight body part and a hollow body part, which is used when a gas-phase catalytic oxidation reaction of an olefin or a tertiary butanol is conducted to produce a corresponding unsaturated aldehyde and/or unsaturated carboxylic acid, wherein:
a length of the straight body part is shorter than a length of the hollow body part and at least at one end part, a region from an end part of the straight body part to an end part of the hollow body part is concavely curved.

2. The ring-shaped catalyst according to claim 1 , wherein the straight body part is present between a surface including one end part of the hollow body part and a surface including another end part of the hollow body part.

3. The ring-shaped catalyst according to claim 1 , wherein at least at one end part, a ratio of a maximum distance in mm between a surface connecting the end part of the straight body part to the end part of the hollow body part and the concavely curved surface to a distance in mm between the end part of the straight body part and the end part of the hollow body part is 0.01 or more and 0.2 or less.

4. The ring-shaped catalyst according to claim 1 , wherein at both end parts, the region from the end part of the straight body part to the end part of the hollow body part is concavely curved.

5. The ring-shaped catalyst according to claim 1 , wherein an angle between the straight body part and a line connecting the end part of the straight body part to the end part of the hollow body part is from 45 to 85°.

6. The ring-shaped catalyst according to claim 1 , wherein a ratio (a/b) of an outer diameter a in mm in the straight body part to an inner diameter b in mm in a region including the hollow body part in an axial direction is 2.3 or more, a ratio (H/b) of a straight body part length H in mm to an inner diameter b in mm in a region including the hollow body part in the axial direction is 1.3 or more, the straight body part length H in mm is from 2 to 11 mm, and the outer diameter a in mm in the straight body part is from 2 to 11 mm.

7. A production method of acrolein and/or acrylic acid, comprising conducting gas-phase catalytic oxidation of a raw material mixed gas containing propylene and an oxygen-containing gas in the presence of the ring-shaped catalyst according to claim 1 .

8. A ring-shaped catalyst having a straight body part and a hollow body part, which is used when gas-phase catalytic oxidation of an unsaturated aldehyde is conducted to produce a corresponding unsaturated carboxylic of an unsaturated aldehyde acid, wherein:
a length of the straight body part is shorter than a length of the hollow body part and at least at one end part, a region from an end part of the straight body part to an end part of the hollow body part is concavely curved.

9. The ring-shaped catalyst according to claim 8 , wherein the straight body part is present between a surface including one end part of the hollow body part and a surface including another end part of the hollow body part.

10. The ring-shaped catalyst according to claim 8 , wherein at least at one end part, a ratio of a maximum distance in mm between a surface connecting the end part of the straight body part to the end part of the hollow body part and the concavely curved surface to a distance in mm between the end part of the straight body part and the end part of the hollow body part is 0.01 or more and 0.2 or less.

11. The ring-shaped catalyst according to claim 8 , wherein at both end parts, the region from the end part of the straight body part to the end part of the hollow body part is concavely curved.

12. The ring-shaped catalyst according to claim 8 , wherein an angle between the straight body part and a line connecting the end part of the straight body part to the end part of the hollow body part is from 45 to 85°.

13. The ring-shaped catalyst according to claim 8 , wherein a ratio (a/b) of an outer diameter a in mm in the straight body part to an inner diameter b in mm in a region including the hollow body part in an axial direction is 2.3 or more, a ratio (H/b) of a straight body part length H in mm to an inner diameter b in mm in a region including the hollow body part in the axial direction is 1.3 or more, the straight body part length H in mm is from 2 to 11 mm, and the outer diameter a in mm in the straight body part is from 2 to 11 mm.

14. A production method of acrylic acid, comprising conducting gas-phase catalytic oxidation of a raw material mixed gas containing acrolein and an oxygen-containing gas in the presence of the ring-shaped catalyst according to claim 8 .
