Abstract: A process for preparing a catalyst provided in the form of a metal oxide catalyst having at least one element selected from Mo, Te, Nb, V, Cr, Dy, Ga, Sb, Ni, Co, Pt and Ce. The catalyst is subjected to an aftertreatment to increase the proportion of the M1 phase, by contacting the catalyst with steam at a pressure below 100 bar or by contacting the catalyst with oxygen to obtain an aftertreated catalyst. The aftertreated catalyst may be used for oxidative dehydrogenation processes.

Abstract: An exhaust diffuser for a gas turbine includes an annular duct. A row of struts is arranged in the duct. In a region downstream of the trailing edges of the struts, the cross-sectional area of the duct decreases to a local minimum and then increases again towards the outlet end of the duct. Thereby the gas flow is locally accelerated downstream of the struts. This stabilizes the boundary layer of the flow in this region and leads to a marked increase in pressure recovery for a wide range of operating conditions.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for preparing linear ?-olefins, wherein ethylene 1a is conducted into the oligomerization reactor 2 in the liquid phase. The oligomerization reactor 2 has a mechanical stirrer 2a in order to ensure optimal mixing of the liquid ethylene and of the catalyst in the liquid phase. From the top of the oligomerization reactor 2, vaporized ethylene is drawn off together with light ?-olefins and a small proportion of the organic solvent. The gas mixture drawn off from the top of the reactor 2 is condensed together with gaseous fresh ethylene 7 by means of heat exchanger 3 and separator 4. The liquid phase drawn off from the separator 4 is conducted by means of circulation pump 5a as liquid ethylene input 1a back into the oligomerization reactor 2. The liquid products of the oligomerization reaction are drawn off 8 laterally from the base of the reactor 2.
