Abstract

Abstract The oxidative dehydrogenation of propane on rare earth vanadates is always in competition with the total oxidation of the alkane which leads to the formation of CO 2 and CO. Addition of CO 2 into the feed results in an increased C 3 H 6 selectivity together with a decreased CO formation through the total oxidation of the alkane or the formed alkene. For the tested rare earth vanadates as well as for the niobium promoted catalysts an enhancement of the C 3 H 6 selectivity at isoconversion and thus of the C 3 H 6 yields is observed upon CO 2 addition into the feed.
