Vanadium phosphorus oxide catalysts were prepared by conventional and microwave irradiation method. Both methods generated high yield (> 90%). Nevertheless, VPO catalysts prepared via microwave irradiation method appears to have different surface morphology from that of the catalysts prepared by conventional method. All the catalysts show excellent activities on hydrocarbon combustion reaction (up to 100%).
