摘要:
A regenerator vessel for adsorbing halogen-containing material from a regenerator vent gas stream has a plurality of catalyst nozzles disposed at a top portion of the regenerator vessel. A first gas outlet is associated with a chlorination zone, and a second gas outlet associated with a combustion zone. A drying zone is in fluid communication with an air heater and the drying zone located in a bottom portion of the regenerator vessel. The first gas outlet is configured to withdraw a first gas stream from the chlorination zone and the second gas outlet is configured to withdraw a second gas stream from the combustion zone. The top portion of the regenerator vessel has an adsorption zone having a vent gas inlet port, a vent gas outlet port, and a portion of an annular catalyst bed.

A method of reactivating a spent catalyst comprising a metal and a catalyst support, the method comprising redispersing the metal in the spent catalyst to produce a redispersed spent catalyst, contacting the redispersed spent catalyst with a reactivating composition to produce a redispersed, reactivated spent catalyst, and thermally treating the redispersed, reactivated spent catalyst to produce a reactivated catalyst. A method comprising employing a fresh aromatization catalyst in one or more reaction zones for a time period sufficient to produce a spent catalyst, reducing the amount of carbonaceous material associated with the spent catalyst to produce a decoked spent catalyst, contacting the decoked spent catalyst with a redispersing composition to produce a decoked redispersed spent, contacting the decoked redispersed spent catalyst with a reactivating composition to produce a decoked redispersed reactivated spent catalyst, and thermally treating the decoked, reactivated spent catalyst to produce a reactivated catalyst.
摘要:
A reactor for regenerating catalyst grains comprises a vessel having an oxychlorination zone superimposed over a calcining zone having a line for introducing gas. A chamber, disposed between oxychlorination and calcining zones, comprises an internal space located between two plates which are gas tight and impervious to catalyst grains. A plurality of tubes pass through the chamber to allow catalyst to pass from oxychlorination zone to calcining zone. A plurality of means pass through the chamber to allow calcining gas to pass from calcining zone to oxychlorination zone. At least one oxychlorination gas injection line opens into the internal space of the chamber. Each means for passage of calcining gas comprises at least one orifice communicating with the chamber internal space, and a means for evacuating gas which is permeable to gas and impermeable to catalyst grains.
摘要:
Methods for treating or rejuvenating a spent catalyst are disclosed. Such methods can employ a step of halogenating the spent catalyst, followed by decoking the halogenated spent catalyst. The halogenation step can utilize fluorine and chlorine together, or fluorine and chlorine can be applied sequentially.
摘要:
A process for regenerating a catalyst used in a reaction zone. In a regeneration zone, the catalyst may be cooled before passing into a chloride rich zone. The regeneration zone may also receive a heated ambient oxygen in a catalyst heating zone. The regeneration zone may also receive recovered chloride from a chloride recovering zone which removes and recovers chloride from regeneration gas taken from the regeneration zone. Heated ambient oxygen may also be introduced into a chlorination zone.

The process involves the use of specifically selected coke precursor compounds from the front end of oil distillate fractions that contain C11 to C14 hydrocarbons and their use as additives in the processing of naphtha in a catalytic reformer. The C11 to C14 compounds additives enhance coke make in continuous catalytic regeneration (CCR) reformers to levels higher than those which are usually produced in low coke naphtha reforming operations. With the increase of ethanol blending in gasoline and low reformate octane severity operations, reformers do not produce the necessary amount of coke to permit sustaining steady state white burn operations.
