Abstract
Abstract Catalysts found to be particularly effective in the dehydrogenation of alkyl aromatics, for example ethylbenzene to styrene, where the catalysts include iron oxide, 12 to 30% of an alkali metal compound, 3 to 7% of a cerium compound, 1.5 to 6.0% of a molybdenum compound and 1 to 8% of a calcium compound. Catalyst can also include 0 to 8.0% of a chromium compound.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
79 words
A dehydrogenation catalyst including 15 to 30% by weight of a compound selected from the group consisting of the oxide and carbonate of an alkali metal 2% to 8% by weight of cerium oxide, 1.5 to 6.0% by weight of molybdenum oxide, 1 to 8% by weight of a compound selected from the group consisting of the oxide and carbonate of calcium and the balance iron oxide for the dehydrogenation of organic alkyl materials to correspondingly less saturated materials.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
79 words
A dehydrogenation catalyst including 15 to 30% by weight of a compound selected from the group consisting of the oxide and carbonate of an alkali metal 2% to 8% by weight of cerium oxide, 1.5 to 6.0% by weight of molybdenum oxide, 1 to 8% by weight of a compound selected from the group consisting of the oxide and carbonate of calcium and the balance iron oxide for the dehydrogenation of organic alkyl materials to correspondingly less saturated materials.
