Outline of Final Research Achievements

A bifunctional catalyst consisting of small MFI zeolite crystallites covering crystals of W-V binary oxide with hexagonal tungsten bronze structure. One-pass oxidehydration of glycerol into acrylic acid was tested to show the high selectivity of MFI/W-V-O. Glycerol was dehydrated into acrolein by Bronsted acid sites on MFI, and acrolein was oxidized into acrylic acid by redox sites on W-V-O.
