Effect of pressure on the oxidative conversion of ethane on VMoTeNbO catalyst

摘要

Study of the catalytic properties of the VMoTeNbO catalyst in the oxidative conversion of ethane to ethylene at pressures of 0.1 to 2.1 MPa demonstrated that the pressure positively affects the conversion of ethane and favors formation of oxygen -containing products of deep and partial oxidation: carbon oxides and acetic acid, respectively. With increasing pressure, the yield of the product of oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane, i.e., ethylene, decreases.
