Catalysis
A process for producing 1,3-butadiene (BD) from ethanol in a single step by s7passing a mixture containing ethanol in a gas phase over a multifunctional catalyst having a transition metal dispersion of at least 30% on a silica metal oxide support. In some examples the multifunctional catalyst comprises a silica metal oxide having a surface area of at least 200 m{circumflex over ( )}2/g. The multifunctional catalyst can include a transition metal oxide, a silica metal oxide made from a high purity silica gel, mesoporous silica and fumed silica, such as high purity SBA16, SBA15, or Davisil grade 646.
