Abstract:
The invention relates to a catalyst comprising a support, at least one noble metal M, tin, phosphorus and at least one lanthanide group element, the content of phosphorus element being comprised between 0.4 and 1% by weight, and the content of lanthanide group element(s) being less than 1% by weight with respect to the weight of the catalyst. The invention also relates to the process for the preparation of the catalyst and the use thereof in reforming.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a collector assembly (8) for a gaseous fluid suitable for being disposed in a reaction section with a moving bed of catalyst of a radial reactor. The collector assembly comprises a vertical cylindrical screen (9), permeable to gas and impermeable to particles of catalyst, and a vertical cylindrical tube (10) which is supported by this screen (9) and disposed in a concentric manner with respect to the screen. The tube (10) comprises one or more zones (17a, 17b) which are permeable to gaseous fluid, comprising a plurality of through holes and a plurality of zones (18a, 18b, 18c, 18d) with a reduced permeability to gaseous fluid compared with the permeable zone. Each zone with a reduced permeability has a porosity, defined as the ratio between total permeable surface area of the zone and total developed surface area of this zone, in the range 0 to 0.005.
Abstract:
The present invention describes a type of radial bed reactor which can allow a small quantity of catalyst to be used. Application to a regenerative reforming process reactor.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a process for coal conversion, optionally in co-processing with other feedstocks, notably of the biomass type, comprising at least one liquefaction step, followed by a fixed-bed hydrocracking step and a catalytic reforming step. With this process, aromatic compounds can be obtained from a feedstock containing coal.

Abstract:
The invention describes a radial bed catalytic conversion unit having an outer cylindrical chamber (1), an inner chamber (2) which is also cylindrical, the annular zone included between the outer chamber and the inner chamber, termed the reaction zone (I), being filled with catalyst under slow gravitational flow, and the feed being introduced via an inlet pipe (E), connected to an intermediate box (F) which is in turn connected to a plurality of distribution tubes (3) disposed inside the reaction zone (I) in the vicinity of the outer chamber (1).
Abstract:
A process for isomerizing an aromatic cut containing at least one aromatic compound containing eight carbon atoms per molecule is described, comprising bringing said cut into contact with at least one catalyst comprising at least one metal from group VIII of the periodic classification of the elements, at least one zeolitic support comprising a zeolite selected from zeolites with structure type EUO and MOR, used alone or as a mixture, and at least one matrix, such that the specific surface area of the matrix in the zeolitic support of said catalyst is in the range 5 to 200 m2/g.
