Review on approaches for kinetic studies of selective oxidation of C2-C4 olefins and spectroscopic techniques to elucidate details on the reaction mechanism.
The introduction on pages 3 and 4 briefly summarizes the review. The catalyst is typically a mixed oxide, often including Mo, Bi, and V. The changing oxidation state of most catalysts complicates the reaction kinetics, making it worthwhile to apply microkinetic models.
