A process of producing 1,3-butadiene includes: a first step of obtaining gases containing 1,3-butadiene by an oxidative dehydrogenation reaction of a raw material gas with a molecular oxygen-containing gas in the presence of a metal oxide catalyst, the raw material gas containing 1-butene and 2-butene and having a proportion of 2-butene to a sum of 1-butene and 2-butene, which is defined as 100% by volume, being not less than 50% by volume; a second step of cooling the produced gases obtained in the first step; and a third step of separating the produced gases having undergone the second step into molecular oxygen and inert gases and other gases containing 1,3-butadiene by selective absorption to an absorbing solvent, wherein the concentration of methyl vinyl ketone in the produced gases having been cooled in the second step is 0% by volume or more and not more than 0.03% by volume.

Production process of 1,3-butadiene

A method for producing butadiene comprises a step of obtaining a product gas containing butadiene, by feeding a raw-material gas containing straight-chain butene and an oxygen-containing gas containing molecular oxygen to a reactor and performing oxidative dehydrogenation reaction in the presence of a catalyst, wherein the catalyst comprises a composite oxide containing molybdenum and bismuth, and the concentration of hydrocarbons having 5 or more carbon atoms in the raw-material gas is 0.05 mol % to 7.0 mol %.

Method for producing butadiene

A method for producing diene comprises a step 1 of obtaining a straight chain internal olefin by removing a branched olefin from a raw material including at least the branched olefin and a straight chain olefin; and a step 2 of producing diene from the internal olefin by oxidative dehydrogenation using a first catalyst and a second catalyst, and the first catalyst has a complex oxide including bismuth, molybdenum and oxygen, and the second catalyst includes at least one selected from the group consisting of silica and alumina.

Diene production method

An isomerization catalyst for isomerizing a first straight-chain olefin to a second straight-chain olefin different therefrom in a double bond position in the presence of 20 ppm by volume or more of molecular oxygen and/or water, comprising: Si; and Al.
