Highly selective and stable propane dehydrogenation to propene over dispersed VO<sub>x</sub>-species under oxygen-free and oxygen-lean conditions
For the first time, we reported on a highly selective propane dehydrogenation to propene over SiO2- supported dispersed VOx species under oxygen-free and oxygen-lean conditions. Propene selectivity above 80% was achieved with propane conversions above 45% at 823–843 K. At operation under oxygenlean conditions, consecutive propene conversion to COx was significantly suppressed and propene was formed additionally via the highly selective non-oxidative dehydrogenation route over the same catalyst. Usage of SiO2 supports (MCM-41, SBA-15, SiO2) with no strong acid sites and co-feeding of small O2 amounts lead to very limited coke formation (<2 wt. % after 20 h on-stream operation). This results in only slight decrease in time-on-stream performance (ca. 10% of deactivation during 20 h)
Preparation and characterisation of single phase (MoVW)<sub>5</sub>O<sub>14</sub>-type catalyst material
MoVW based materials are highly effective catalysts for partial oxidation reactions such as conversion of acrolein to acrylic acid. They offer a high selectivity, high yields and a good long term stability. Preceding work has identified the catalytically active phase of the MoVW catalyst and characterised it by Raman spectroscopy. The current work has been carried out to synthesise and characterise this active (MoVW)5O14 type structure

Activation of a Mo-V-W-O catalyst-correlation of catalytic performance in the acrolein oxidation and structural changes of the catalyst
On the formation and decomposition of active phases in Mo<sub>9</sub>V<sub>3</sub>W<sub>1.2</sub>O<sub>x</sub> catalysts during operation in the acrolein oxidation to acrylic acid
The activation process of Mo9V3W1.2Ox mixed oxide catalysts in the reaction of acrolein oxidation to acrylic acid was investigated for various reaction conditions. Changes induced in the catalytic performance by these different activation procedures could be correlated to structural changes of the MoVW mixed oxide catalyst, as proven by XRD and electron microscopies (SEM, TEM, and EDX)
