Abstract
Isobutane dehydrogenation was studied on platinum impregnated mixed aluminium gallium phosphorus oxide and oxynitride, in a continuous, flow micro-reactor at 500-550 degrees C. Comparison of the << Pt/AlGaPO >> and << Pt/AlGaPON >> shows the importance of nitridation on the acido-basic properties of the catalyst. A deactivation of the catalyst, due to the deposition of carbonaceous species on the surface,was observed. As the properties of the oxynitride would be altered by a regeneration treatment at high temperature with flowing oxygen, the possibility of decreasing the deactivation rate by decreasing the reaction temperature and by adding hydrogen to the reactant mixture was explored. Catalytic tests, carried out at different hydrogen partial pressures, showed that the hydrogen inhibits the carbon deposition on the surface of the catalyst and thus increases the catalytic stability.
