Question regarding the reduction of dry gas hydrogen production catalysts
Thread Content
How is the hydrogen production conversion catalyst for coker dry gas reduced? What are the conditions for reduction?
The simplest way is to ask the manufacturer of the catalyst you purchased.
It should be catalyst reduction through moderate temperature changes; generally, the catalyst manufacturers provide the specific solutions.
The reduction of this hydrogen production conversion catalyst takes place simultaneously with the hydrogen generation from the feed; once the conversion system reaches the appropriate operating conditions, the temperature at the inlet of the conversion reactor is around 550°C, while the temperature at the outlet is around 780°C. The hydrogen generation from the feed is essentially the reduction process.
Hydrogen can be produced by ammonia cracking or purchased in pure form, followed by reduction using hydrogen gas. The catalyst manufacturer will provide a specific solution
