Abstract

See full text

A vanadium/phosphorus mixed oxide catalyst precursor is transformed into the active catalyst for the production of maleic anhydride. The activation takes place in a fluidized bed and includes the steps of (a) initially heating the precursor; (b) further heating under superatmospheric pressure; (c) isothermal stage at superatmospheric pressure; and, finally, (d) cooling the activated catalyst obtained. Catalysts activated according to this procedure show high performance in the conversion of non-aromatic hydrocarbons to maleic anhydride.
