Dehydrogenation catalyst regeneration
Thread Content
Dear experts, does anyone know the regeneration process for UOP dehydrogenation catalysts? Please share your knowledge
The UOP dehydrogenation catalyst should be a precious metal catalyst, and the regeneration method involves high-temperature calcination followed by reduction
I don’t know what question to ask. What is the principle behind catalyst deactivation? What goes wrong? Is it the carrier that’s damaged, or is it poisoning, or an issue with the active centers?
Reforming catalysts and dehydrogenation catalysts have similarities in terms of the need for chlorine supplementation; I’m considering whether dehydrogenation catalysts also require such supplementation. Additionally, I’m interested in the regeneration process for UOP dehydrogenation catalysts
Reformation catalysts require acidic sites, hence chlorine supplementation is needed, while dehydrogenation catalysts do not require it. Unless it is a bifunctional catalyst.
