Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 17
Claim 1
Independent Claim 112 words
Catalyst comprising a preshaped porous support material, said preshaped porous support material being obtained by subjecting a corresponding powderous support material to a shaping operation and/or thermal treatment causing sintering of powder particles, and having a specific surface area of from 0.1 to 50 m 2 /g, at least a compound of iron in an amount of from 0.1 to 20 wt. % and at least an alkali metal and/or alkaline earth metal compound as promoter in an amount of from 0.1 to 20 wt. %, the amounts being calculated as metal based on the total catalyst weight, said compounds being applied to the support in a finely divided form by impregnation.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 112 words
Catalyst comprising a preshaped porous support material, said preshaped porous support material being obtained by subjecting a corresponding powderous support material to a shaping operation and/or thermal treatment causing sintering of powder particles, and having a specific surface area of from 0.1 to 50 m 2 /g, at least a compound of iron in an amount of from 0.1 to 20 wt. % and at least an alkali metal and/or alkaline earth metal compound as promoter in an amount of from 0.1 to 20 wt. %, the amounts being calculated as metal based on the total catalyst weight, said compounds being applied to the support in a finely divided form by impregnation.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 20 words
Catalyst according to claim 1 wherein the preshaped porous support material has an average diameter of at least 0.5 mm.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 33 words
Catalyst according to claim 2 wherein the specific surface area of the preshaped porous support material is from 0.1 to 25 m 2 /gram and the average diameter from 1 to 20 mm.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 14 words
Catalyst according to claim 1 wherein the preshaped porous support material is magnesium oxide.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 17 words
Catalyst according to claim 1 wherein the catalytically active component contains at least an oxide of iron.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 18 words
Catalyst according to claim 1 wherein a hydroxide, oxide or carbonate of potassium has been applied as promoter.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 101 words
A method for the preparation of the catalyst according to claim 1 wherein the method comprises the steps of impregnating the preshaped porous support material at least once with a solution containing the catalytically active component on a precursor thereof, followed by vaporizing or heating the impregnated support material to remove the solvent, and prior to, simultaneously with or following the above-mentioned impregnation steps, impregnating, at least once, the preshaped porous support material with a solution containing the promoter or precursor thereof, and thereafter vaporizing or heating the support material impregnated with the promoter or precursor thereof to remove the solvent.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 60 words
The method according to claim 7 wherein the solution of the catalytically active component or precursor thereof contains a complex of the catalytically active component or precursor thereof, the viscosity of which solution does not decrease while heating or vaporizing the solvent, which method further comprises heating the complex of the catalytically active component or precursor thereof to decompose same.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 44 words
The method according to claim 7 wherein the method further comprises evacuating the support material prior to each impregnation step and using, in each impregnation step, a quantity of solution which essentially corresponds to the pore volume of the support material to be impregnated.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 36 words
The method according to claim 7 wherein the method further comprises, after each impregnation, drying the support material at a temperature of from 20° to 150° C. and subsequently heating to a temperature of 500°-1000° C.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 27 words
The method according to claim 8 wherein the viscosity of the solution of the catalytically active component or precursor thereof increases while heating or vaporizing the solvent.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 108 words
