Kinetic modeling of side reactions in propane dehydrogenation over Pt - Sn/γ - Al2O3 catalyst

Effect of Addition of Different Promoters on the Performance of Pt-Sn-K/Al2O3 Catalyst in the Propane Dehydrogenation

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

Platinum-Promoted Ga/Al2O3 as Highly Active, Selective, and Stable Catalyst for the Dehydrogenation of Propane**

A novel catalyst material for the selective dehydrogenation of propane is presented. The catalyst consists of 1000 ppm Pt, 3 wt% Ga, and 0.25 wt% K supported on alumina. We observed a synergy between Ga and Pt, resulting in a highly active and stable catalyst. Additionally, we propose a bifunctional active phase, in which coordinately unsaturated Ga(3+) species are the active species and where ...

DFT study of propane dehydrogenation on Pt catalyst: effects of step sites.

Self-consistent periodic slab calculations based on gradient-corrected density functional theory (DFT-GGA) have been conducted to examine the reaction network of propane dehydrogenation over close-packed Pt(111) and stepped Pt(211) surfaces. Selective C-H or C-C bond cleaving is investigated to gain a better understanding of the catalyst site requirements for propane dehydrogenation. The energy...

Propane Dehydrogenation with Better Stability by a Modified Pt-Based Catalyst

The effect of transition metal doping on Pt/Al2O3 catalyst used in propane dehydrogenation reaction at 500 ̊C was studied. The preparation methods investigated were sequential impregnation (Pt followed by the 2 metal or the 2 metal followed by Pt) and co-impregnation. The metal contents of these catalysts were fixed as the weight ratio of Pt per the 2 metal of around 0.075. These catalysts were ...
