Abstract

A method of preparing an alumina catalyst including: performing primary calcination of an alumina precursor at a primary calcination temperature to form a mixed-phase alumina including 1% to 15% by weight of alpha-alumina, 60% to 95% by weight of theta-alumina, and 4% to 25% by weight of delta-alumina; steam-treating the mixed-phase alumina with water vapor at a steam-treating temperature lower than the primary calcination temperature to form activated mixed-phase alumina; and performing secondary calcination of the activated mixed-phase alumina at a secondary calcination temperature higher than the steam treatment temperature and lower than the primary calcination temperature after step S2. An alumina catalyst prepared using the method, and a method of preparing propylene using the alumina catalyst.
