USE OF RHENIUM-CONTAINING SUPPORTED HETEROGENEOUS CATALYSTS FOR THE DIRECT DEOXYDEHYDRATION OF GLYCEROL TO ALLYL ALCOHOL

摘要

The present invention relates to the use of an alumina-supported rhenium oxide catalyst for the deoxydehydration of glycerol to allyl alcohol, as well as to a process for the production of allyl alcohol from glycerol in the presence of such a heterogeneous catalyst.
