Improved vapor phase catalytic oxidation of butane to maleic anhydride

Oxidation of butane to maleic anhydride using a vanadium-phosphorus oxide catalyst, in oxidized form, wherein the resulting reduced catalyst is separately regenerated. A recirculating solids reactor can be employed. Less than the stoichiometric amount of oxygen, based on the total amount of butane c...

Zusammenfassung:Oxidation of butane to maleic anhydride using a vanadium-phosphorus oxide catalyst, in oxidized form, wherein the resulting reduced catalyst is separately regenerated. A recirculating solids reactor can be employed. Less than the stoichiometric amount of oxygen, based on the total amount of butane converted, can be employed.
