Figure 3
Continuous gas-phase propane dehydrogenation using GaRh IMC catalysts. For Ga3Rh (red symbols) and Ga9Rh2 (blue symbols) the conversion (filled) and selectivity (open) are shown over the time on stream in the right figure. The left figure shows productivities i.e. the mass of propene produced per mass of Rh. Reaction conditions: 550 °C, 1.2 bar, catalyst bed composition: 202.3 mg Ga3Rh + 1.5 g silica; 150.0 mg Ga9Rh2 + 1.5 g silica, Gas flows: He flow 89 mLN min–1, C3H8 flow 8.9 mLN min–1.
