Abstract

A ferrite catalyst for oxidative dehydrogenation and a method of preparing the same. The ferrite catalyst is prepared using an epoxide-based sol-gel method, wherein a step of burning includes a first burning step, in which burning is performed at a temperature of 70 to 200° C.; and a second burning step, in which burning is performed after the temperature is raised from a temperature in the range of greater than 200° C. to 250° C. to a temperature in the range of 600 to 900° C.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A method of preparing a ferrite catalyst for oxidative dehydrogenation, comprising:
(a) dissolving a trivalent cationic iron (Fe) precursor and a divalent cationic metal (A) precursor in an alcohol solvent to prepare a precursor solution;
(b) mixing an epoxide compound with the precursor solution to obtain a gel;
(c) aging the gel to form an aged gel;
(d) drying the aged gel to obtain a synthetic product; and
(e) burning the synthetic product, comprising:
a first burning performed at a temperature of 70 to 200° C.; and
a second burning performed after the temperature is raised from a temperature in the range of more than 200° C. to 250° C. to a temperature in the range of 600 to 900° C.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein, in the first burning, the temperature is raised from a temperature in the range of 70 to 90° C. to a temperature in the range of 170 to 200° C., and then maintained at 170 to 200° C. for 4 to 8 hours.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein, in the first burning, a heating rate is 0.1 to 1° C./min.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein, in the second burning, the temperature is raised from a temperature in the range of more than 200° C. to 250° C. to a temperature in the range of 630° C. to 900° C., and then maintained at 630° C. to 900° C. for 4 to 8 hours.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein, in the second burning, a heating rate is 0.5 to 1.5° C./min.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the divalent cationic metal (A) is one or more selected from the group consisting of copper (Cu), radium (Ra), barium (Ba), strontium (Sr), calcium (Ca), beryllium (Be), zinc (Zn), magnesium (Mg), manganese (Mn), and cobalt (Co).

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a molar ratio, (based on metal element) of the trivalent cationic iron (Fe) precursor to the divalent cationic metal (A) precursor is 1.5 to 3.0:1.0.

8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the alcohol solvent is one or more selected from the group consisting of methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, 1-butanol, and 2-butanol.

9. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the epoxide compound is one or more selected from the group consisting of propylene oxide, ethylene oxide, and 1,2-epoxybutane.

10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein, in (c), the aging of the gel is performed at 10 to 40° C. for 12 to 48 hours.

11. The method according to claim 1 , wherein, in (d), the drying is performed at 70 to 100° C. for 12 to 48 hours.

12. The method according to claim 1 , wherein (d) further comprises an alcohol exchange process.

13. The method according to claim 1 , wherein (d) further comprises a filtering process.
