Requirements for metal content in hydrogenation catalysts
Thread Content
What are the requirements for metal content in hydrogenation catalysts, and what is an appropriate maximum level?
Do you want to produce the catalyst yourself?
I would like to ask about the requirements regarding the metal content in the feedstock for hydrorefining and hydrocracking.
The metal content in the hydrogenation feed should preferably be kept below 1 ppm. The iron content can sometimes be relaxed a bit, but it should not exceed 2 ppm. The limits for arsenic and lead should be stricter; the combined level of these two elements should preferably not exceed 0.5 pp. If the hydrogenation reactor is equipped with protective agents such as iron removers or silicon removers, the allowable levels of metals in the feed material can be relaxed somewhat. The fundamental principle is that the metal content in the hydrogenation feed must be controlled in accordance with the requirements of the hydrogenation catalyst manufacturers.
