Zusammenfassung:A process for the reactivation of a vanadium-phosphorus-oxygen catalyst promoted by metals selected from the group consisting of zinc, molybdenum, niobium, tungsten, uranium, cobalt and tin with alkyl esters of phosphoric acid and water is disclosed. The catalysts are useful for the manufacture of maleic anhydride from butane, butene, butadiene or benzene feedstock.
