Catadiene Catalytic Butadiene
Catadiene Catalytic Butadiene : Also spelled Catadien. A version of the Houdry process for converting mixtures of butane isomers into butadiene by dehydrogenation over an alumina/chromia catalyst. Another version converts propane to propylene. Rapid coking of the catalyst necessitates use of several reactors in parallel, so that reactivation can be carried out continuously
