It is an object to provide a regenerated denitration catalyst whose denitration performance is restored compared with a denitration catalyst before use, utilizing a spent denitration catalyst, and a method for manufacturing the same. In a regenerated denitration catalyst according to the present disclosure, a spent denitration catalyst including a first titanium oxide as a main component, and a second titanium oxide are mixed. The spent denitration catalyst is already used in a denitration reaction in which nitrogen oxides in a gas are decomposed into nitrogen and water using a reducing agent. The second titanium oxide has a larger specific surface area per unit weight than the first titanium oxide. A content of the second titanium oxide based on a total weight of the first titanium oxide and the second titanium oxide is preferably 10% by weight or more and 90% by weight or less.

Provided are an oxovanadium phosphate catalyst, and a preparation method and an application therefor. The method includes: 1) mixing and reacting a vanadium source, a choline chloride-organic carboxylic acid eutectic solvent, and alcohol; 2) mixing the obtained reaction product with a phosphorus source, raising the temperature to a temperature higher than the melting point of the eutectic solvent, and continuing the reaction to obtain an oxovanadium phosphate precursor; and 3) calcining to obtain the oxovanadium phosphate catalyst. The alcohol is: benzyl alcohol or a mixture of C.sub.3-C.sub.8 monohydric alcohol and benzyl alcohol. The present method uses a green and inexpensive eutectic solvent to strengthen the preparation of oxovanadium phosphate catalyst, avoids the disadvantages of the prior art, and overcoming the problems of low yield and poor selectivity when used in a reaction to prepare maleic anhydride by catalytic n-butane selective oxidisation.
