Is there anyone with experience in the hydrogenation refining of crude benzene?

Is there anyone who has experience in benzene hydrogenation? I’m a senior student now and I don’t know much about this process, neither in terms of the manufacturing procedures nor regarding safety aspects. If there are any experienced colleagues out there, I would appreciate their guidance. I forgot to mention that this project was originally part of the coal chemical industry, involving the hydrogenation of crude benzene and xylene, but it was decided not to proceed with it, and I’m now looking for another job. Nevertheless, everyone can share their knowledge here. Last edited by forestair on 2009-3-12 21:22.]
It’s a bit surprising – why isn’t there any answer?
Taking everything into account, I won’t pursue a similar job after graduation
When hydrogenating benzene to produce cyclohexane, platinum or palladium is used as a catalyst, and fixed-bed or suspension-bed reactors can be employed； Partial hydrogenation of benzene can produce 80% cyclohexene and 20% cyclohexane using my ruthenium catalyst.
