Abstract
Magnesium chromites promoted with aluminum have been found to be superior to chromia-alumina type dehydrogenation catalysts, for example, in the dehydrogenation of n-butane. The aluminum is either added to the preformed magnesium chromite or is incorporated into the spinel structure of the chromite itself or added in both ways. The aluminum will be present in the catalyst from all sources in an atomic ratio of Al:Cr of 0.0004 to 1.2:1. The atomic ratio will more usually be 0.04 to 0.8:1, Al:Cr.
