Molybdenum based oxide catalysts Mo-H,Mo-Fe,Mo-Ce,and Mo-Sn were prepared by calcining H3PMo12O40,Fe1.5 PMo 12O40,Ce1.5PMo12O40,and Sn1.5 PMo12O40 heteropolyanion precursors at700℃,respectively.The prepared oxides have been characterized and tested for the dehydrogenation of isobutane(IB)to isobutene in the presence of CO2.The effects of temperature,time on stream,and CO2 /IB ratio were investigated.It was found that α-and-MoO3 phases were present in all catalysts.Catalytic tests showed that increasing the reaction temperature increased both the conversion and isobutene selectivity,whereas increasing the CO2 /IB molar ratio increased the conversion but decreased the selectivity for isobutene.Iron was found to be an effective additive element for the enhancement of catalytic activity compared with Ce and Sn.
