Abstract

Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) method is introduced as a novel approach in this work to study catalyst deactivation of V2O5/γ‐‐Al2O3 for gas‐phase dehydration of glycerol and producing acrolein. The LIBS results of V2O5/γ‐Al2O3 samples are compared with those data that are obtained by Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP‐OES). Experimental data of LIBS data specify that line intensities of vanadium are decreased by deactivation of V2O5/γ‐Al2O3 catalyst. A comparison between the results of LIBS test as well as ICP‐OES analysis shows that the amount of vanadium is decreased in the catalyst. Moreover, coke formation changes the surface of the catalyst. The results of deactivation of V2O5/γ‐Al2O3 are also compared with Pd/C catalyst deactivation.
