Reactivation of CoMo/Al2O3 hydrotreating catalysts with chelating agents

Аннотация

Effect of various chelating components, multibasic carboxylic acids and glycols, used to prepare hydrotreating catalysts on the activity regeneration of calcined hydrotreating catalysts was studied. Reactivated catalyst samples were tested in a model reaction of hydrodesulfurization of dibenzothiophene. It was shown that the treatment of calcined catalysts with the chelating components leads to an increase in the catalytic activity. The best catalytic characteristics are observed for the catalyst reactivated with a solution containing citric acid and triethylene glycol.
