Dehydrogenation process and catalyst
Patent
·
OSTI ID:5390772
A process for dehydrogenation of gaseous hydrocarbons and the catalyst employed for the process are described. The cyclic process consists of dehydrogenation of the hydrocarbons such as butane, isopentane, or ethylbenzene over the catalyst to produce butenes and butadiene, isopentene and isoprene, and styrene, respectively. The process alternates cycles of dehydrogenation and catalyst regeneration during which coke is burned off the catalyst by passing molecular oxygen through the catalyst. The dehydrogenation catalyst in magnesium chromite having the formula MgCr/sub 2/O/sub 4/ and containing from 2 to 8% of Li based on the MgCr/sub 2/O/sub 4/ (BLM)
