Abstract

Catalytic dehydrogenation of methanol is a promising process of producing waterโ€free formaldehyde. The present paper reviews research in this field. As effective catalysts mainly transition metal compounds as well as oxides and salts containing sodium have been reported. Several catalysts exhibit high activity and high selectivity, for formaldehyde at low conversions while further efforts have to be made to improve catalyst stability and selectivity at high conversions. Catalytic dehydrogenation of methanol to formaldehyde is compared with methanol oxidation.

## Ahstraet -The kinetics of the oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde, over iron molybdate as catalyst, have been studied. The kinetic runs have been performed with a CSTR reactor. The results can be described with a kinetic model derived on the basis of a redox mechanism partially hindered by th
