The invention relates to a catalyst used for petrochemical industry, and concretely relates to the catalyst used for dehydrogenation preparation of monoolefine by saturated alkane. The catalyst comprises metal active components, a carrier, a first auxiliary agent and a second auxiliary agent, wherein the metal active components can be one or a combination from Fe, Co or Ni; the carrier can be one or a mixed oxide or a composite oxide from Al2O3, SiO2, ZrO2, TiO2 and MgO; the first auxiliary agent is a structural auxiliary agent, which is one or the combination from Zn, Cu, Sn, In or Cd; and the second auxiliary agent is one or a mixture of an alkali metal oxide or an alkaline earth oxide. The catalyst active components are non-precious metal elements which have no unfavorable influence on environment, selectivity of a target product alkene is high, simultaneously, carbon deposit is greatly reduced, and catalyst stability is good.
