A molybdenum-vanadium bimetal oxide catalyst having a molecular formula of Mo.sub.1V.sub.y, where y represents an atomic molar ratio of vanadium and molybdenum. An oxygen support Mo.sub.1V.sub.y is prepared by an impregnation method including impregnation, drying, calcination, and tablet pressing. In the dehydrogenation reaction of a light alkane to an alkene over the supported molybdenum-vanadium bimetal oxide, the reaction temperature is 450° C.-550° C. Propane can be oxidized and dehydrogenated to produce propylene with a high activity and high selectivity. A conversion rate of propane remains at 30%-40%, and a selectivity for propylene is 80%-90%. A fresh oxygen support changes from a high-valence state to a low-valence state after reacting with propane. A low-valence state oxygen support reacts with air or oxygen to be oxidized to a high-valence state, and recovers lattice oxygen and cycles again.

The present invention provides a method for preparing 1,5-pentanediol via hydrogenolysis of tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol. The catalyst used in the method is prepared by supporting a noble metal and a promoter on an organic polymer supporter or an inorganic hybrid material supporter, wherein the supporter is functionalized by a nitrogen-containing ligand. When the catalyst is used in the hydrogenolysis of tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol to prepare 1,5-pentanediol, a good reaction activity and a high selectivity can be achieved. The promoter and the nitrogen-containing ligand in the supporter are bound to the catalyst through coordination, thereby the loss of the promoter is significantly decreased, and the catalyst has a particularly high stability. The lifetime investigation of the catalyst, which has been reused many times or used continuously for a long term, suggests that the catalyst has no obvious change in performance, thus reducing the overall process production cost.

The present invention relates to preparation of catalyst for production of olefinic hydrocarbons by dehydrogenation of their corresponding paraffins, particularly propylene from propane, comprising a metal oxide or combination of metal oxides utilizing spent catalyst from Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC)/Resid Fluid Catalytic Cracking (RFCC) processes. The metal oxides are possibly from transition metal group, particularly from groups VB, VIB, VIII, and Lanthanide series, and at least one metal from alkali group. The catalyst support used is spent catalyst or modified spent catalyst or combination thereof. The said catalyst can be used for both non-oxidative Propane Dehydrogenation (PDH) and Oxidative Propane Dehydrogenation (OPDH) process in the presence of CO.sub.2.
