The effect of dilution on the dehydrogenation of isopentane in the presence of iodine

  • Published:
Chemistry and Technology of Fuels and Oils Aims and scope

Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The characteristics of isopentane dehydrogenation in the presence of iodine and water depend on the nature of the diluent.

  2. 2.

    The dilution of isopentane with water enables the yield of isoprene from the amount of isopentane passed through and the selectivity with respect to isoprene to be raised substantially.
