The effects of ethanol vapor pretreatment on the performance of CrO_x/SiO₂ catalysts during the dehydrogenation of propane to propylene were studied with and without the presence of CO₂. The catalyst pretreated with ethanol vapor exhibited better catalytic activity than the pristine CrO_x/SiO₂, generating 41.4% propane conversion and 84.8% propylene selectivity. The various catalyst samples prepared were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, temperature-programmed reduction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and reflectance UV-Vis spectroscopy. The data show that coordinative Cr³⁺ species represent the active sites during the dehydrogenation of propane and that these species serve as precursors for the generation of Cr³⁺. Cr³⁺ is reduced during the reaction, leading to a decrease in catalytic activity. Following ethanol vapor pretreatment, the reduced CrO_x in the catalyst is readily re-oxidized to Cr⁶⁺ by CO₂. The pretreated catalyst thus exhibits high activity during the propane dehydrogenation reaction by maintaining the active Cr³⁺ states.
