Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method of oxidative dehydrogenating a butane-containing hydrocarbon stream by contacting the same with a bimetallic catalyst in the presence of an oxidant, wherein the bimetallic catalyst comprises nickel and bismuth on a titanium carbide catalyst support. Various embodiments of the method of oxidative dehydrogenating the butane-containing hydrocarbon stream and the bimetallic catalyst are also provided.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method of dehydrogenating a butane-containing hydrocarbon stream, comprising: pretreating a bimetallic catalyst in a fixed bed reactor by heating to a temperature above 500° C., then cooling to a temperature of 400-450° C., then contacting the butane-containing hydrocarbon stream with the bimetallic catalyst in the presence of oxygen to form a product stream comprising a butene compound, wherein the bimetallic catalyst comprises nickel and bismuth on a titanium carbide catalyst support, and wherein the butane-containing hydrocarbon stream is contacted with the bimetallic catalyst at a temperature of 400 to 450° C. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein a molar ratio of oxygen to butane is in a range of 1:1 to 4:1. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the bimetallic catalyst consists of nickel oxide and bismuth oxide on a titanium carbide catalyst support.
