Discussion on UOP Penex process issues: Why is it not necessary to remove CO and CO2 when adding hydrogen during the desulfurization process in UOP reactors? 1. The desulfurization reaction occurs at a high temperature, making it difficult for oxygen atoms to replace the Cl- ions in AlCl. 2. During desulfurization, the chlorine injection rate was increased to protect the catalyst from oxidation. Personal opinion; discussions are welcome
