Description: This invention relates to catalysts for use in recovering useful substances, such as cumene, α-methylstyrene, phenol in high yields by pyrolysis reaction of a distillation residue from a reaction mixture containing by-products resulting from a process for preparing phenol and acetone by oxidation of cumene with molecular oxygen followed by acid-cleavage, and also to a process for recovering said useful substances by using said catalysts from a residue resulting from distillation of phenol and acetone from a reaction mixture obtained in said oxidation of cumene with molecular oxygen followed by acid-cleavage. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Phenol is known as an intermediate widely used for the synthesis of synthetic resins, surfactants, medicines and the like. Various processes are known as methods of preparing such phenol as referred to above, however, a method which has been mainly adopted therefor is a so-called cumene process wherein phenol and acetone are prepared by oxidizing cumene with molecular oxygen to cumene hydroperoxide which is then cleavaged with acid to phenol and acetone. However, where phenol is prepared by the cumene process which comprises oxidizing cumene with molecular oxygen it is inevitable that dimethyl phenyl carbinol, acetophenone, α-methylstyrene, α-methylstyrene dimer, cumyl phenol and the like are formed as by-products in the course of oxidation reaction and consequently the resulting reaction mixture contains, in addition to phenol and acetone, such by-products as mentioned above. Accordingly, a residue (hereinafter sometimes called a phenol distillation residue), which is obtained after the separation by distillation of cumene, phenol and acetone from the above-mentioned resulting reaction mixture, contains such by-products as dimethylphenyl carbinol, acetophenone, α-methylstyrene, α-methylstyrene dimer, etc. Recovery of useful substances by converting these by-products is a matter of importance from the standpoint of reduction of the production costs of phenol by the cumene process. Heretofore, the recovery of such useful substances as cumene, α-methylstyrene and phenol from this phenol distillation residue has been practiced by pyrolytically decomposing the phenol distillation residue, followed by distillation or the like. In the prior art process which comprises pyrolytically decomposing the phenol distillation residue, however, there were involved such problems that it takes a long period of time to complete the decomposition and, moreover, recoveries of cumene, α-methylstyrene and phenol are low. For the purpose of solving such problems as mentioned above, Japanese Patent Publication No. 36892/1984 discloses processes for recovering useful substances such as cumene, α-methylstyrene and phenol from the phenol distillation residue resulting from a process for preparing phenol by the cumene process wherein cumene, phenol and acetone are separated by distillation, which processes are characterized in that said phenol distillation residue is pyrolytically decomposed in the presence of alumina catalysts such as γ-alumina and the like or silica-alumina catalysts such as silica alumina, acid clay, synthetic zeolite and the like, or in the presence of these catalysts mentioned above and acids. According to examples concretely disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 36892/1984 cited above, however, it has been found that the processes embodied in the examples involve such problems that because the silica-alumina catalysts used have a large particle diameter such as 110-500 µm and the Al₂O₃: SiO₂ ratio of from 10: 90 to 50: 50 and, moreover, the reaction temperature employed is elevated finally up to 340-345°C, the recovery of α-methylstyrene from dimethylphenyl carbinol, α-methylstyrene dimer, o-cumyl phenol and p-cumyl phenol is as high as 70-100%, whereas the recovery of phenol therefrom is markedly low as low as 3-30%. OBJECT OF THE INVENTION The present invention is intended to solve such problems associated with the prior art as mentioned above, and an object of the invention is to provide catalysts for use in pyrolitic decomposition of the phenol distillation residue and also processes for recovering useful substances from said phenol distillation residue, said phenol distillation residue being a liquid residue of distillation obtained at the time when a process for preparing phenol and acetone is carried out, which process comprises oxidizing cumene with molecular oxygen to cumene hydroperoxide which is then subjected to acid cleavage, and separating cumene, phenol and acetone by distillation from the resulting reaction mixture. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The catalysts for use in pyrolytic decomposition of the phenol distillation residue in accordance with the present invention are used in pyrolytic decomposition of a distillation residue which is resulted from the separation by distillation of cumene, phenol and acetone from a reaction mixture obtained by oxidizing cumene with molecular oxygen to cumene hydroperoxide which is then subjected to acid cleavage, and the catalysts of the invention are characterized in that they comprise oxygen containing metallic compounds having a particle diameter of 0.002-100 µm. Further, the processes for recovering useful substances from the phenol distillation residue in accordance with the present invention, said phenol distillation residue resulting from the separation by distillation of cumene, phenol and acetone from a reaction mixture obtained by oxidizing cumene with molecular oxygen to cumene hydroperoxide followed by acid cleavage, are characterized in that said phenol distillation residue is allowed to undergo pyrolitic reaction at a temperature of 200-350°C, preferably 250-310°C, in the presence of catalysts comprising oxygen containing metallic compounds having a particle diameter of 0.002-100 µm, thereby recovering the useful substances such as cumene, phenol and α-methylstyrene. By virtue of pyrolytically decomposing the phenol distillation residue by the use of the catalysts for use in pyrolytic decomposition of phenol distillation residue of the present invention, it is possible to recover in high yields not only cumene and α-methylstyrene but also phenol from said phenol distillation residue, and accordingly the present catalysts greatly contribute to the reduction of production costs of phenol.

In the present invention such ultrafine oxygen containing metallic compound catalysts as illustrated above are directly added to the phenol distillation residue, or such precursors capable of forming ultrafine oxygen containing metallic compound catalysts in the phenol distillation residue, for example as aluminum phenoxide, titanium isopropoxide may be added to said phenol distillation residue, wherein the precursors are subjected to the aforementioned treatment such as hydrolysis or the like, thereby forming the desired ultrafine oxygen containing metallic compound catalysts. Of the two procedures mentioned above, preferred is the latter procedure wherein the ultrafine metallic compound catalysts are formed in the pyrolysis. According to this latter procedure, the ultrafine metallic compound catalysts can be formed by hydrolysis of the metallic compounds as precursors with water formed by dehydration of by-products such as dimethylphenyl carbinol and the like present in the phenol distillation residue, which are liable to dehydration. In this procedure, the amount of the catalyst used can be minimized, the pyrolitic reaction can be carried out in a continuous manner and, moreover, there is no need for consideration of the catalyst life.

These precursors are preferably used after dissolving them in organic solvent, for example, anhydrous hexane, phenol, methanol, ethanol, isopropanol and dissolving water. The pyrolysis reaction of the phenol distillation residue using the ultrafine oxygen containing metallic compound catalysts mentioned above may be carried out either batchwise or continuously. The ultrafine oxygen containing catalysts are used in an amount of 0.1-50,000 ppm, preferably 10-1,000 ppm by weight based on the weight of the phenol distillation residue. The above-mentioned pyrolysis reaction of the phenol distillation residue using the ultrafine oxygen containing metallic compound catalysts is usually carried out at 400 mmHg to 4 kgf/cm² abs, preferably under ordinary pressure, though the reaction may be carried out either subatmospheric or atmospheric pressure conditions or under pressure conditions.

Accordingly, when phenol is prepared by the cumene process, the use therein the catalysts of the present invention greatly contributes to reducing the production costs of the phenol. The present invention is illustrated below with reference to examples, but it should be construed that the invention is in no way limited to those examples. Example 1 Into a 200 ml four neck flask equipped with a stirring device, a cooling pipe, a nitrogen blowing head and a temperature detector was charged 100 g of a phenol distillation residue (composition by weight: 10-20% acetophenone, 10-20% dimethylphenyl carbinol, 10-30% phenol, 10-20% p-cumyl phenol, 10-20% α-methylstyrene dimer 5-10% o-cumyl phenol, and the remainder as heavy substances), said phenol distillation residue resulting from the separation by distillation of most of acetone, cumene, α-methylstyrene and phenol from a reaction mixture obtained by the cumene process, and further were added thereto 0.4 g (titanium tetrachloride concentration 5% by weight) of an anhydrous hexane solution of titanium tetrachloride and then 10 g of water/acetone (1/1 weight ratio). The charged mass was gradually heated while agitating and distilling off low boiling substances, and the reaction temperature finally reached 300°C. The reaction mass was maintained at that temperature until no distillate appeared. The distillate obtained was analyzed by gas chromatography. As the result, it was found that cumene, α-methylstyrene and phenol present in the distillate as decomposition products of the charged dimethylphenyl carbinol, α-methylstyrene dimer, p-cumyl phenol and o-cumyl phenol were recovered with 10, 85 and 85 mol%, respectively. (Cumene is that which is obtained by hydrogenation of α-methylstyrene with hydrogen generated in the reaction system.) It was found, on assay under X-ray, an electron microscope or the like, that most of the titanium compound present in the residue in the reaction vessel was titanium hydroxide or titanium oxide which had an average particle diameter of 0.5-1.0 µm. Examples 2-11 In Example 1, in place of the titanium tetrachloride, there were used other metallic compounds as indicated in Table 1. Further, hydrolysis of the metallic compounds used was carried out, without addition of the water/acetone, by the use of water formed by pyrolytic decomposition of dimethylphenyl carbinol, or the metallic compounds used were decomposed to corresponding hydroxides with ammonia formed from an aqueous urea solution added and heated, thereby forming ultrafine oxygen containing metallic compound catalysts. The results obtained are shown in Table 1. Comparative Example 1 The same procedure as described in Example 1 was repeated except that titanium oxide (a product as stipulated in JIS Z8801, passing through a 100 mesh screen) was used in place of the titanium tetrachloride used in Example 1. The results obtained are shown in Table 2. Comparative Example 2 The same procedure as described in Example 2 was repeated except that aluminum hydroxide (a product as stipulated in JIS Z8801, passing through a 100 mesh screen) was used in place of the aluminum chloride used in Example 2. The results obtained are shown in Table 2. Comparative Example 3 The same procedure as described in Example 3 was repeated except that silica-alumina (a product as stipulated in JIS Z8801, passing through a 100 mesh screen) was used in place of the silicon tetrachloride and aluminum chloride used in Example 3.
