Method of making gold-titania catalyst for oxidation of hydrocarbons

摘要

A catalyst comprises a titanium-containing oxide and gold deposited by deposition-precipitation on the oxide in a gold-bearing solution where the solution and the oxide are centrifuged to separate out the catalyst. The catalyst is used in oxidation of an olefin by contacting the olefin with a reaction gas and the catalyst which is heated in the reaction gas to a reaction temperature at a controlled heating rate to avoid agglomeration of gold species.
