Iron molybdate is a powerful catalyst usually
used in an unsupported form and operating in an
oxygen-rich atmosphere. Catalysts of iron molybdate
have been used for many years for the industrial
development of formaldehyde from methanol oxidation. .
This paper examines the different methods used in
preparing and synthetics of iron molybdate, and the
differences, advantages and disadvantages of each
method.
Keywords : Iron molybdate, Methods, advantages and disadvantages.
