| abstract |
The present invention relates to a process for the treatment of hydrocarbon compounds containing at least one nitrile or amine function. In particular, the invention relates to hydrodenitrogenation by converting hydrocarbon compounds (eg methylglutaronitrile or o-toluenediamine) containing at least one nitrile or amine function into ammonia, hydrogen, carbon monoxide and hydrocarbon compounds. (Especially hydrocarbon compounds with a low carbon number, such as methane) or a process comprising conversion to ammonia. |
