    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the production of an alkenylaromatic compound comprising the step of:



    contacting a hydrocarbon stream including an alkylaromatic compound with water vapor in the presence of a dehydrogenation catalyst, suitable for the dehydrogenation of the alkylaromatic compound, in one or more consecutive reactors,

    wherein the weight ratio between the water vapor and the hydrocarbon (water/hydrocarbon ratio) is from 0.4 to 1.5, wherein the dehydrogenation catalyst comprises three or more of teeth and a body, such that the cross-section of the dehydrogenation catalyst is a toothed-wheel shape, and wherein the dehydrogenation catalyst comprises, based on the total weight of the dehydrogenation catalyst components as oxides,

    from 30 to 90 weight percent (wt. %) of iron calculated as Fe2O3,
    from 1 to 50 wt. % of potassium calculated as K2O,
    from 1 to 50 wt. % of cerium calculated as CeO2, and
    from 0.01 to 1 wt. % of yttrium calculated as Y2O3. Further the invention relates to a dehydrogenation catalyst comprising:

    from 30 to 90 weight percent (wt. %) of iron calculated as Fe2O3,
    from 1 to 50 wt. % of potassium calculated as K2O,
    from 1 to 50 wt. % of cerium calculated as CeO2, and
    from 0.01 to 1 wt. % of yttrium calculated as Y2O3,

    wherein the wt. % is based on the total weight of the dehydrogenation catalyst components as oxides, wherein the dehydrogenation catalyst comprises at least three teeth and a body, such that the cross-section of the dehydrogenation catalyst is a toothed-wheel shape, and a process of synthesizing such a catalyst.

    Abstract: A process for cracking olefins to produce propylene, ethylene, or both, includes providing a feed stream that includes mixed butenes and contacting the feed stream with a cracking catalyst at reaction conditions that cause at least a portion of the mixed butenes in the feed stream to react to form propylene, ethylene, or both. The cracking catalyst includes zeolite particles formed from shape selective zeolite particles and an alumina binder. The cracking catalyst further includes at least one transition metal oxide impregnated onto the zeolite particles, where the at least one transition metal oxide can be iron oxide, nickel oxide, or a combinations of these. The cracking catalyst with the iron oxide, nickel oxide, or both increases conversion of mixed butenes to propylene, ethylene, or both alone or in combination with a metathesis upstream of the cracking catalyst, as compared to conventional cracking catalysts.
