Abstract
Several metal oxides supported on sulfated zirconia catalysts were tested f or the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane into ethylene by carbon dioxide. It is found that the catalytic behavior of supported oxide catalysts diffe r depending on the nature of metal oxides. Chromium oxide-sulfated zirconia exhibits the highest ethane conversion and medium level of ethylene select ivity, producing 38% ethylene yield at 50% ethane conversion at 650 degrees C.
