The focus of this contribution was to evaluate the membrane reactor concept in fluidized beds. The performance of a pilot-plant fluidized bed membrane reactor (FLBMR) was studied experimentally in comparison to the conventional operation as a fluidized bed reactor (FLBR). As model reaction was applied the catalytic oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane using a γ-alumina supported vanadium oxide catalyst. The beneficial effect of oxidant dosing over the membrane is most pronounced at high temperatures and long contact times.
