Oxidative desulphurisation of oils via hydrogen peroxide and heteropolyanion catalysis
TL;DR: In this paper, the use of dibenzothiophene with hydrogen peroxide using phosphotungstic acid as catalyst and tetraoctylammonium bromide as phase transfer agent in a mixture of water and toluene has been studied.

TL;DR: In this paper, economic processes for the production of component for refinery blending of transportation fuels by selective oxidation of feedstocks comprising a mixture of hydrocarbons, sulfur-containing and nitrogen-containing organic compounds are disclosed.
Patent
Process for preparing polyketones
TL;DR: In this article, a process for preparing interpolymers of an olefin(s) and carbon monoxide (polyketones) is provided. But this process employs a palladium catalyst prepared by reacting together a Palladium source, a bidentate amine, phosphine, arsine or stibine and a source of a borate anion.

Desulphurisation of oil
TL;DR: A process for desulphurising hydrocarbon oils comprises the steps of (1) treating a sulphur containing hydrocarbon oil with a catalyst consisting essentially of an aqueous acidic or neutral solution of a molybdenum, tungsten or vanadium heteropolyanion and an oxidant under conditions such that the sulphur is oxidised and (2) separating the oxidised sulphur from the treated oil.

The production of formic acid from a nitrogenous base, carbon dioxide and hydrogen
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe a process for the production of formic acid which is characterized by the fact that after production of the formate salt of the nitrogenous base in stage (a) and either before or during the second stage (b) the catalyst is treated with a formate decomposition inhibitor which is either (I) a carboxylic acid or a salt thereof, (II) carbon monoxide or (III) an oxidant.
