Dehydrogenation nanocatalyst

Oil and gas refineries catalyst

Pores average size about 10 nm Specific surface ratio 275 m2/g Good distribution of precipitates on the catalyst In mesoporous materials, area to volume ratio considerably increase compared to bulk materials. The upper specific area of the nanopores created in catalyst, cause effective surface area and increase the catalyst activity.

The secbutyl Alcohol (SBA) or Type 2 butanol conversion to Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MKE) is one of the process, performed at the oil and gas refineries industry. Dehydrogenation catalysts are used in oil, gas and petrochemical industries, frequently. These catalysts should have highest activity, in order to maximum performance. Hence, it is necessary to well distributing in nanopores of catalyst active materials such metal oxides as copper, zinc and ex.
