Title: Cyclic catalytic upgrading of chemical species using metal oxide materials

Abstract

Processes are disclosure which comprise alternately contacting an oxygen-carrying catalyst with a reducing substance, or a lower partial pressure of an oxidizing gas, and then with the oxidizing gas or a higher partial pressure of the oxidizing gas, whereby the catalyst is alternately reduced and then regenerated to an oxygenated state. In certain embodiments, the oxygen-carrying catalyst comprises at least one metal oxide-containing material containing a composition having one of the following formulas: (a) Ce.sub.xB.sub.yB'.sub.zB''O.sub..delta., wherein B=Ba, Sr, Ca, or Zr; B'=Mn, Co, or Fe; B''=Cu; 0.01<0.99; 0<0.6; 0<0.5; and 1<.delta.<2.2; (b) Sr.sub.vLa.sub.wB.sub.xB'.sub.yB''.sub.zO.sub..delta., wherein B=Co or Fe; B'=Al or Ga; B''=Cu; 0.01<1.4; 0.1<1.6; 0.1<1.9; 0.1<0.9; 0<2.2; and 3<.delta.<5.5).
