Abstract
Kinetic regularities of the oxidative dehydrogenation reaction of methylcyclohexane on the – clinoptilolite catalyst were investigated. Absence of internal and external diffusion inhibition was established, the reaction proceeds in the kinetic area, in which all diffusion stages proceed much faster than all chemical stages that make up the mechanism of this reaction. The influence of partial pressures of reagents, the reaction temperature and the space velocity of the reaction mixture on the course of the reaction was studied and optimal conditions for obtaining the intentional reaction product determined.
