Abstract

A method for producing a conjugated diene according to one aspect of the present invention comprises a step of contacting a raw material gas containing an alkane with a first catalyst and a second catalyst in this order to obtain a product gas containing a conjugated diene. In the production method, the first catalyst contains Sn and Pt, and a content of Sn in the first catalyst is less than 12% by mass based on the total mass of the first catalyst; and the second catalyst contains Sn and Pt, and a content of Sn in the second catalyst is 12% by mass or more based on the total mass of the second catalyst.

Claims (11)

1. A method for producing a conjugated diene, comprising a step of contacting a raw material gas containing an alkane with a first catalyst and a second catalyst in this order to obtain a product gas containing a conjugated diene, wherein

the first catalyst contains Sn and Pt, and a content of Sn in the first catalyst is less than 12% by mass based on a total mass of the first catalyst, and

the second catalyst contains Sn and Pt, and a content of Sn in the second catalyst is 12% by mass or more based on a total mass of the second catalyst.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein

the first catalyst has a first support containing Al, and

the second catalyst has a second support containing Al.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein

a content of Pt in the first catalyst is 0.05% by mass or more and 3% by mass or less based on the total mass of the first catalyst, and

a content of Pt in the second catalyst is 0.05% by mass or more and 3% by mass or less based on the total mass of the second catalyst.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the alkane is an alkane having 4 to 10 carbon atoms.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the alkane is butane, and the conjugated diene is butadiene.
