Abstract
The invention relates to a poison-resistant catalytically active microporous membrane to be used for heterogeneously catalyzed reactions, which membrane is characterized in that it is permeable to one of the reactants separated by said membrane, and that it is impermeable to the other reactants and the contaminants contained therein, the molecules of all of which are larger in size than the pore size of the membrane, and to a process for carrying out a heterogeneously catalyzed reaction under conditions preventing the catalyst from being poisoned. This membrane allows to conduct three-phase reactions in a new manner, whereby the reaction gas is directly transported to the active sites.
Claims7
A poison-resistant continuous membrane for heterogeneously catalyzed reactions permeable to one of the reactants separated by said membrane, the membrane having pores distributed throughout of which more than 90% have a pore diameter smaller than 1,2 nm, the membrane containing as integral part thereof in said pores at least one catalytically active component.
