Abstract

The invention relates to a catalyst that comprises at least the tantalum element, at least an aldolizing element and at least a mesoporous oxide matrix, with the tantalum mass being between 0.1 and 30% of the mesoporous oxide matrix mass, the mass of the at least one aldolizing element being between 0.02 and 4% of the mesoporous oxide matrix mass, and use thereof.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A catalyst that comprises tantalum element an aldolizing element that is calcium, barium, or mixtures thereof, and at least one mesoporous oxide matrix that comprises at least one oxide of an element X that is silicon, titanium or mixtures thereof, with the mass of the tantalum element being between 0.1 and 30% of at least one mesoporous oxide matrix mass and the mass of the aldolizing element being between 0.02 and 4% of at least one the mass of the at least one mesoporous oxide matrix.

2. The catalyst according to claim 1 , in which said aldolizing element is barium.

3. The catalyst according to claim 1 , further comprising at least one element of Group 1, 4 or 5 of the periodic table, with element mass being between 0.01 and 5% of at least one mesoporous oxide matrix.

4. The catalyst according to claim 3 , wherein the at least one element is Cs.

5. The catalyst according to claim 1 , in which said at least one mesoporous oxide matrix is mesostructured.

6. The catalyst according to claim 1 , in which said at least one mesoporous oxide matrix comprises a silicon oxide that has a specific surface area of 100 to 1,200 m 2 /g, a mesopore volume of between 0.2 and 1.8 ml/g, and a mesopore diameter of between 4 and 50 nm.

7. The catalyst according to claim 1 , further comprising at least one element of Group 11 or 12 of the periodic table or mixtures thereof, with at least element mass being between 0.5 and 10% of at least one mesoporous oxide matrix mass.

8. The catalyst according to claim 7 , wherein the at least one element is Zn.

9. A process for a conversion of a feedstock that comprises at least ethanol into butadiene, comprising contacting said feedstock with the catalyst according to claim 1 at a temperature of between 300 and 400° C., a pressure of between 0.15 and 0.5 MPa, and a volumetric flow rate of between 0.5 and 5 h −1 .

10. The process according to claim 9 , in which the temperature is between 320° C. and 380° C.

11. The process according to claim 9 , in which the pressure is between 0.15 and 0.3 MPa.

12. The process according to claim 9 , in which the volumetric flow rate is between 1 and 4 h −1 .
