The MnO_x-Al₂O₃ catalysts in the reaction of C₁-C₃ hydrocarbons deep oxidation

Abstract

The effect of the amount of Mn (II) in the precursor of manganese-aluminium oxide catalysts for the complete oxidation of hydrocarbons on the phase composition and kinetic parameters of the reaction was studied. It was shown that an increase in the amount of manganese in the catalysts results in an increase in the constants of C1-C3 hydrocarbons oxidation reaction rates. An increase in the number of carbon atoms in the alkane leads to an increase in the reaction rate and a decrease in the energy of reaction activation. Promising catalysts for the catalytic combustion of hydrocarbons were identified.
