4 Returning to an Historic Process Butadiene produced from ethanol industrially until the 196s Soviets (Lebedev Process) Union Carbide Yields were poor: ~6-7% How to improve?

5 Returning to an Historic Process Butadiene produced from ethanol industrially until the 196s Soviets (Lebedev Process) Union Carbide Yields were poor: ~6-7% How to improve? Ethanol for this process could come from pulp mill liquors, esp. sulfite (see, e.g., Aditya Birla mill in Örnsköldsvik, Sweden)

6 Improving on the Lebedev Process? Butadiene produced from ethanol industrially until the 196s Soviets (Lebedev Process) Union Carbide Yields were poor: ~6-7% How to improve?

7 Improving on the Lebedev Process? Butadiene produced from ethanol industrially until the 196s Soviets (Lebedev Process) Union Carbide Yields were poor: ~6-7% How to improve? Reaction is catalyzed by MgO-SiO 2, which is surprising. What makes this catalyst active? Will that help with the rest of the reaction scheme?

Butadiene produced from ethanol industrially until the 196s Soviets (Lebedev Process) Union Carbide Yields were poor: ~6-7% 3 wt% MgO/SBA-15 How to improve? Reaction is catalyzed by MgO-SiO 2, which is surprising. What makes this catalyst active? Will that help with the rest of the reaction scheme?
