Isobutane dehydrogenation over chromia alumina catalysts prepared from MIL-101: Insight into chromium species on activity and selectivity

Cyclohexane selective oxidation over metal-organic frameworks of MIL-101 family: superior catalytic activity and selectivity.

Mesoporous metal-organic frameworks Cr- and Fe-MIL-101 are highly efficient, true heterogeneous and recyclable catalysts for solvent-free selective oxidation of cyclohexane with molecular oxygen and/or tert-butyl hydroperoxide under mild conditions.

Catalytic Behavior of Chromium Oxide Supported on Nanocasting-Prepared Mesoporous Alumina in Dehydrogenation of Propane

Mesoporous alumina with narrow pore size distribution centered in the range of 4.4-5.0 nm and with a specific surface area as high as 270 m²·g-1 was prepared via the nanocasting approach using a CMK-3 carbon replica as a hard template. Based on this support, a series of catalysts containing 1, 5, 10, 20 and 30 wt % of chromium was prepared by incipient wetness impregnation, characterized, and s...

Dehydrogenation of Isobutane with Carbon Dioxide over SBA-15-Supported Vanadium Oxide Catalysts

A series of vanadia catalysts supported on SBA-15 (V/SBA) with a vanadia (V) content ranging from 1% to 11% were prepared by an incipient wetness method. Their catalytic behavior in the dehydrogenation of isobutane to isobutene with CO2 was examined. The catalysts were characterized by N2 adsorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Raman spectroscopy, and temperatur...

Dehydrogenation of Propane to Propylene Over Pt-Sn/Al2O3 Catalysts: The influence of operating conditions on product selectivity

Korhonen, S

The formation of carbonaceous species during isobutane dehydrogenation on chromia/zirconia was studied by in situ diffuse reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy combined with mass spectrometry for on-line product gas analysis. The reactions of the hydroxyl groups of zirconia support with the hydrocarbons and the reduction of the chromates resulted in the formation of adsorbed aceto...
