Act, 2005: NO
A process for the catalytic reaction of organic compounds, in which the organic compounds are contacted with a catalyst comprising an
interstitial metal hydride, having a reaction surface, to produce a catalyst-organic compound mixture, energy is applied, monatomic
hydrogen is produced at the reaction surface of the interstitial metal hydride, and the organic compounds are reacted with the monatomic
hydrogen. Reactions accomplished by this process include petroleum hydrocracking and hydrotreating processes. The method's
performance can be further enhanced using radio frequency (RF) or microwave energy.
