Oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane over catalysts prepared via heteropolycompounds

Selective oxidation of propane over PMoVM/α‐Al2O3 (M: Co, Fe, or Ni)

“…Moreover, the nickel ions led to high amount of deep oxidation products (33.3% of carbon oxide selectivity). It is worth noting that we have previously observed this particularly catalytic behaviour of nickel in the oxidation of both cyclohexane and ethane over nickel oxide-based catalysts (Haddad et al, 2000;Hocine et al, 2000). These results show the metal-transition promoters modify both the redox and acid-base characters of the catalyst surface as it has been observed by several authors (Corma et al, 1993;Ermini et al, 2000;Haddad et al, 2000;Hocine et al, 2000;Sarzi-Amadè et al, 2005).…”
