[ 1 ] - V2O5-MoO3 Catalysts Preparation and Performance Testing on the Oxidation of Benzene to Maleic Anhydride in a Fixed Bed Reactor

In this research, the selective oxidation of benzene to maleic anhydride (MAN) in a fixed-bed reactor was studied. The gas phase catalytic oxidation of benzene was carried outin a laboratory scale fixed bed reactor on the catalysts, which were prepared having two different compositions on silica gel. The effects of temperature, flow rates of benzene and air, and catalyst type on the reactio...
