Abstract

The catalytic activity of alumina for the title reaction has been found to be greatly improved by the loading of copper. The addition of copper resulted in lowering the active temperature region, the higher maximum activity, and the enhancement of the reaction rate. The maximum effect was observed at 0.3 wt% of the loading amount of copper. A similar enhancement was also confirmed on SiO2-Al2O3.
