    • Chlorinated derivatives of toluene are manufactured by passing a mixture of chlorine and toluene vapour through a reaction zone at 250-600 DEG C., the speed of passage being adjusted in such a manner as to increase from a low space velocity of the order of 2-5 reciprocal minutes at the lower end of the temperature range, i.e. 250-350 DEG C., to a high space velocity of the order of 500-2000 reciprocal minutes at the upper end of the range, i.e. 500-600 DEG C. The permissible amount of chlorine in relation to toluene depends upon the temperature, and at temperatures of 400-600 DEG C. the initial amount of chlorine should not exceed half that of toluene vapour, otherwise the mixture may inflame. The parts of the reaction chamber coming into contact with the hot gases are preferably made of non-metallic material such as glass, silica or firebrick. The reaction zone may be packed with inert material such as pieces of silica. The products consist almost entirely of side-chain chlorinated compounds of toluene, but if desired products chlorinated in the nucleus may be obtained by performing the reaction in the presence of chlorine carriers such as iodine or ferric chloride. In an example, a mixture of one volume of chlorine and 2,2 volumes of toluene vapour is passed through a porcelain tube at 510 DEG C. with a space velocity of 520 reciprocal minutes or at 600 DEG C. and 1000 reciprocal minutes, yielding a mixture of benzyl and benzal chlorides. If the quantity of chlorine is increased, e.g. one volume of chlorine to 1,2 volumes of toluene vapour, treated at 250 DEG C., or a mixture of 1,3 volumes of chlorine and one volume of toluene vapour, at 300 DEG C., the percentage conversion of toluene is increased but the proportion of benzal chloride in the product is larger. If a mixture of one volume of chlorine and 2,2 volumes of toluene vapour, containing 1 per cent, by weight of the toluene, of iodine, is passed at 500 DEG C. and 500 reciprocal minutes, a mixture of benzyl and benzal chlorides and chlortoluenes is obtained.

    • Unsaturated hydrocarbons; aromatic hydrocarbons.-Hydrocarbons containing more than one carbon atom are passed in two or more stages through a space heated to 1000 DEG -1200 DEG C. or over, at a space velocity of 50-100 reciprocal minutes or higher. The raw materials may be saturated hydrocarbons such as ethane, propane, and butane, unsaturated hydrocarbons such as ethylene and acetylene, or mixtures of the above compounds, e.g. natural gas, gases obtained by the destructive hydrogenation of coal, gases from oil cracking plants or mixtures also containing methane such as those obtained by thermal treatment of methane. The products may be unsaturated hydrocarbons such as ethylene, acetylene, or diolefines, e.g. butadiene, or aromatic hydrocarbons, e.g. benzene, or oils. The unsaturated hydrocarbons may be used as intermediate products, being further converted into light oils or other saturated hydrocarbons. Preferably the first treatment is performed under such conditions as to prepare the gas for the next thermal treatment. Between each treatment the light oils produced, which consist largely of benzene and homologues, are removed, and the unsaturated hydrocarbons may also be removed; alternatively, the gases remaining after the removal of benzene may be heated in known manner to yield hydrogen. It is better to perform the consecutive treatments in separate furnaces, so that the composition of the mixture, the temperature and the velocity may be more easily controlled. The conditions are chosen so as to avoid blocking of the chamber by carbon. At relatively low space velocity, aromatic hydrocarbons are the main products, while at high space velocity a large proportion of olefines is obtained. The space velocities may be as high as several thousand reciprocal minutes. Usually catalysts are unnecessary and the reaction chamber should not be packed with solid material other than the walls of the reaction vessel. The walls may exert a catalytic influence. The reaction vessel may be of carborundum or of graphite or heat-resisting alloys such as nickel-chromium or chromium steels. By using a reaction vessel whose walls are constructed of or lined with alumino-silicate refractories such as the mineral sillimanite or like material or similar composition, an increased yield of naphthalene is obtained, and in other cases hydrocarbons such as anthracene are formed. The chambers should be very narrow in relation to their length and width. The reaction vessel may be externally heated, but vessels with an inner tube for the heating gases or with an electrically heated member may also be used. Three examples, each describing a three-stage operation, are given. Among the intermediate products specified are butylene, propylene, ethylene, acetylene, with small amounts of butadiene and other diolefines not identified, while the final products are the aromatic light oils, methane and hydrogen together with some ethylene and acetylene. Specifications 264,827, 309,455, 309,488, 324,939, [all in Class 2 (iii), Dyes &c.], are referred to. In the first Provisional Specification, the use of inert gaseous diluents is mentioned. The space velocity most suitable for a maximum yield of ethylene with a methane-ethane mixture is stated to be double that necessary for maximum deposition of carbon and 1 1/2 times that necessary for maximum yield of benzene. Methane is included in the scope of the invention. A mixture is so treated that it is first stripped of its heaviest constituents, then of the next highest hydrocarbons, and so on. In the second Provisional Specification, an example of the treatment of pure propane is given, and it is stated that the ethylene so produced may be treated for the production of ethyl alcohol.

    • Hydrocyanic acid; benzene and other unsaturated hydrocarbons.--Endothermic gas reactions at temperatures over 1000 DEG C. and at high space velocities are carried out by passing the gas through unpacked reaction chambers which are long, deep and very narrow and are sandwiched between long and deep heating flues. Examples of suitable reactions are the production of hydrocyanic acid from ammonia and hydrocarbons described in Specification 335,947, [Class 1 (ii), Inorganic compounds, other than &c.], and the pyrolysis of hydrocarbons to obtain benzene and other unsaturated hydrocarbons as in Specification 342,319, [Group IV]. In the apparatus shown in Figs. 1 and 3, the reaction chambers 1, which are only one or two inches wide and several feet high and deep and constructed of or lined with a refractory material such as sillimanite, traverse a combustion chamber 2. A number of walls 6 are built across this chamber which is thus divided into a number of flues which completely surround the reaction chambers and ensure effective heat transfer. The air for combustion is preheated by regenerators 5 and passes into the combustion space 2 through ports 4, the gas for combustion being admitted through ports 3. The gaseous reactants are also preheated in a suitable apparatus by the products of the reaction. Specification 335,411, [Class 1 (i), Chemical processes &c.], also is referred to.ALSO: The pyrolysis of hydrocarbons to obtain benzene and other unsaturated hydrocarbons as in Specification 342,319 at temperatures over 1000 DEG C. and at high space velocities is carried out by passing the gas through unpacked reaction chambers which are long, deep and very narrow and are sandwiched between long and deep heating flues.
