Abstract

Abstract Among potassium-promoted iron oxide catalysts containing a minor chromia and a series of alkaline earth oxides, i.e., MgO, CaO, SrO, and BaO, the MgO-containing catalyst showed the best performance with respect to the dehydrogenation activity and the stability even at a steam-toethylbenzene molar ratio (H2O/EB ratio) as low as 6.
