Abstract
The invention relates to a process for preparing a catalyst composition comprising an unsupported catalyst comprising ZrV2O7, comprising: mixing ammonium meta-vanadate and zirconyl nitrate, drying the mixture and calcining the dried mixture at a temperature range of 600-900° C. for 2-10 hours to obtain the unsupported catalyst, and mixing the unsupported catalyst with Al2O3 without heating.
Claims14
A process for preparing a catalyst composition comprising an unsupported catalyst comprising ZrV2O7, comprising:
- mixing ammonium meta-vanadate and zirconyl nitrate,
- drying the mixture and calcining the dried mixture at a temperature range of 600-900° C. for 2-10 hours to obtain the unsupported catalyst, and
- mixing the unsupported catalyst with Al2O3 without heating,
- wherein
- the ammonium meta-vanadate and the zirconyl nitrate are mixed at a molar ratio between V and Zr of 0.4:1-1.3:1,
- and/or
- the catalyst comprises at least 30 wt % of the ZrV2O7, based upon a total weight of the catalyst.
