The application discloses a non-
noble metal dehydrogenation catalyst for n-
octane dehydrogenation and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the field of
catalysis technology.The catalyst is a
composite oxide catalyst, and comprises a first
metal, a second
metal, a third
metal and an additive; the first metal is selected from at least one of Fe, Ni, Zn, Mg, Mn, Ti and Cu, the second metal is selected from at least one of Ce, Zr, La, Mo and W, the third metal is selected from at least one of Al, In, Ti, La and Mg, and the additive is selected from at least one of Li, Na, K, Ca and Mg; the
molar content of the first metal is 20% to 80%, the
molar content of the second metal is 10% to 60%, the
molar content of the third metal is 20% to 80%, and the molar content of the additive is 1% to 10%, based on the total molar amount of metal elements.The catalyst has good activity and stability in the n-
octane dehydrogenation reaction through the synergistic effect of multiple components, the total selectivity of C8 dehydrogenation products can reach 84.98% to 90.29%, the preparation process is simple and controllable, the cost is low, and the catalyst is suitable for industrial production.
