Alkylaromatic hydrocarbons are steam dealkylated in the presence of catalyst, typically containing oxides of nickel, potassium, chromium and aluminum, and particularly characterized by the presence of free nickel metal having a metallic surface area of preferably at least about 8 square meters per gram of catalyst.

Catalyst for dealkylating an alkylaromatic hydrocarbon

Steam dealkylation

Alkylaromatic hydrocarbons are dealkylated with steam in the presence of catalyst (typically containing oxides of nickel, potassium, chromium, and aluminum) which has been hydrogen-treated at high temperature.
