A molten carbonate shell modified perovskite redox catalyst for anaerobic oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane

transition is responsible for the peroxide formation, which results in both exothermic ODH and air reoxidation steps. With >90% ethylene selectivity, up to 59% ethylene yield, and favorable heat of reactions, the core-shell redox catalyst has an excellent potential to be effective for intensified ethane conversion. The mechanistic findings also provide a generalized approach for designing CL-ODH redox catalysts.
