A silanized surface, stable selective dehydration catalyst for dienes production, a method for producing a silanized surface, stable, selective dehydration catalyst, and a method for dehydrating at least one of an alkenol and a diol to a diene. The present invention also relates to the fermentation of sugars to afford bio-alkenols that are then separated and converted to a diene using a dehydration catalyst and a method for converting alkenols or diols to dienes with high selectivity and conversion. The dienes are useful in preparing synthetic rubber, plastics copolymers, and fuels.
