摘要:
Metal migration from molecular sieve particles to binder particles in agglomerates of molecular sieves bearing group VIII zerovalent metal occurs readily at temperatures above 350.degree. C. Such migration can seriously impair the performance of the catalyst whose effectiveness depends on the presence of the metal largely, if not exclusively, on the molecular sieve particle. Exposure of the catalyst, or a catalyst precursor, to temperatures facilitating group VIII metal migration can occur at various periods during the catalyst's history. Group VIII metal migration can be inhibited and often effectively prevented when chlorine or a chlorine-containing compound is present in the non-reducing atmosphere at temperatures which otherwise would bring about metal migration.
摘要:
A method is described for the regeneration of a hydrocarbon conversion catalyst that has become deactivated by carbonaceous material deposition where the catalyst comprises a nonacid zeolite and a Group VIII metal component. The method comprises the steps of (1) removing a substantial portion of the carbonaceous material from the catalyst by combustion with an oxygen-containing gas in the presence of a halogen, and (2) reducing the catalyst in the presence of hydrogen.
摘要:
A novel trimetallic catalytic composite, a method of manufacture and process use thereof is disclosed. The composite comprises a refractory support having a nominal diameter of at least 650 microns and having deposited thereon a uniformly dispersed platinum component, a uniformly dispersed Group IVA metal component and a surface-impregnated metal or metal-containing component selected from the group consisting of rhodium, ruthenium, cobalt, nickel, or iridium. When this catalytic composite is used in the reforming of hydrocarbons at low pressures, significant improvement in activity stability is observed compared to catalysts of the prior art.

摘要:
A hydrocarbon feedstock is catalytically reformed in a process which comprises contacting the feedstock in an initial catalyst zone with a catalyst comprising platinum, germanium and halogen on a solid catalyst support. The product from the first catalyst zone is contacted in a terminal catalyst zone with a catalyst having the essential absence of germanium and comprising platinum, halogen and a metal promoter on a solid catalyst support.

A novel hydrocarbon conversion process for the reforming of naphtha charge stocks containing less than 300 wt. ppb sulfur is disclosed. The process utilizes a catalytic composite comprising a refractory support having a nominal diameter of at least 650 microns and having deposited thereon a uniformly dispersed platinum component, a uniformly dispersed tin component and a surface-impregnated metal component selected from the group consisting of rhodium, ruthenium, cobalt, nickel, iridium, and mixtures thereof. When this catalytic composite is used in the reforming of low sulfur level hydrocarbons at low pressures significant improvements in activity stability is observed compared to catalysts of the prior art.
摘要:
The activity and stability of a catalyst are enhanced by substantially precluding water contact between a catalyst finishing step and startup of a process unit utilizing the catlayst. Water is precluded from contacting the catalyst during catalyst finishing and loading at the fabrication site, transportation to the conversion site, and loading, activation, and startup in the reactors of the process unit.

摘要:
A pretreatment method is disclosed for a hydrocarbon conversion catalyst formulation which results in significantly improved yield performance. The pretreatment method involves contacting a catalyst comprising a refractory support containing a platinum component, a tin component and a surface-impregnated promoter metal in the absence of hydrocarbons with a gas containing hydrogen at a temperature, pressure, and period of time sufficient to result in improved yield performance when compared to a non-pretreated catalyst.
