Abstract: A process for the production of furfural from lignosulphonate waste liquor which contains pentose is described, the process essentially comprising the maintenance of a boiling condition of the liquor at predetermined pressures for a sufficient time to convert the pentose to furfural and for the furfural produced to be removed without reacting with pentose, lignosulphonate or itself. Hot air or some other gas under pressure or hot mercury may be used to maintain the boiling of the liquor to ensure that the furfural produced transfers from the liquid to the gas phase and is transported from the reactor in the gas stream. Apparatus for carrying out the process includes a columnar reactor (4) with means (8) to control the pressure, an inlet for preheated liquor, an inlet for hot air under pressure at a low level, an outlet for spent liquor and an outlet for the gaseous phase, from which the furfural is recovered.

Abstract: A process for the preparation of a highly pure 5,5'-bi-1H-tetrazolediammonium
salt (BHT·2NH 3 ) in a high yield
by efficiently synthesizing the 5,5'-bi-1H-tetrazolediammonium
salt (BHT·2NH 3 ) from cheap and easy-to-handle
starting materials based on a one-pot reaction,
and removing copper components which are impurities in the
form of a copper·ammonia·5,5'-bi-1H-tetrazole complex from
the reaction solution or from the coarse crystals isolated
from the reaction solution. By further conducting the
treatment with a chelating resin, the copper content can
be further decreased. 
     The refining process is conducted by either:
   (A) adding small amounts of aqueous hydrogen peroxide and
ammonia water to the reaction solution containing the
5,5'-bi-1H-tetrazoledisodium salt that is obtained by
synthesizing a dicyan by adding, as an oxidizing agent, a
aqueous hydrogen peroxide to an aqueous solution of the
starting materials of which the pH has been adjusted to be
5 to 7 by the addition of a small amount of acidic
substance in the presence of hydrogen cyanide or sodium
cyanide, sodium azide and a catalytic amount of a copper
salt, followed by the heat-cyclization reaction, and
removing by filtration the insoluble component of the
precipitated copper·ammonia·5,5'-bi-1H-tetrazole complex,
and reacting the reaction solution with an aqueous
solution of ammonium chloride, or   (B) adding the aqueous solution of ammonium chloride to
the reaction solution, transforming the separated 5,5'-bi-1H-tetrazolediammonium
salt (BHT·2NH 3 ) into a 5,5'-bi-1H-tetrazoledisodium
salt (BHT·2Na), dissolving the disodium
salt again, and reacting the aqueous solution of the
obtained 5,5'-bi-1H-tetrazoledisodium salt from which the
insoluble component of the formed copper·ammonia·5,5'-bi-1H-tetrazole 
complex has been removed by filtration with
the aqueous solution of ammonium chloride. The process of
preparing the highly pure 5,5'-bi-1H-tetrazolediammonium
salt (BHT·2NH 3 ) combines the refining process (A) or (B)
with a step of treatment with a chelating resin to react
the treated solution with ammonium chloride or an aqueous
solution thereof to recover the formed highly pure
ammonium salt in the form of crystals.
