Abstract
The influence of styrene and by-products of side reactions on the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene into styrene with use of the vanadia-magnesia catalyst has been investigated. Notable slowing-down influence of styrene contained in the substrates on the process has been ascertained, whereas the contamination with other products has not caused such an effect. The apparent activation energy and pre-exponential factor for the investigated reactions were calculated.
