The operation of FCC with mixtures of coked and regenerated catalyst was studied with a riser simulator reactor on two equilibrium catalysts at 550◦C. The coked catalysts maintain an activity level that enables them to be ...

The kinetics and mechanism of coke formation and catalyst deactivation during the synthesis of cresols from phenol methylation were investigated on SiO2–Al2O3, tungstophosphoric acid (HPA) supported on silica, and zeolites ...

The simultaneous deactivation by coke and sulfur of monometallic Pt/Al2O3 and bimetallic Pt–Re(Ge, Sn)/Al2O3 catalysts was studied using n-hexane reforming as bifunctional test reaction and thiophene as poisoning molecule. ...

Glycerol conversion into value-added chemicals has received much attention due to the prospect of increasing the biodiesel industry‘s profitability. The dehydration of glycerol is one of the most explored reactions in the ...

The regeneration of Y-zeolite catalysts used during the isobutane alkylation reaction is studied. Coke is characterized by temperature-programmed techniques and measuring the H/C ratio. The coke deposited under supercritical ...

The deactivation mechanism of the gas-phase synthesis of o-hydroxyacetophenone (o-HAP) via acylation of phenol with acetic acid was studied on Al-MCM-41 and zeolites HY, HBeta and HZSM-5. The o-HAP yield remained constant ...

The impact of the composition of the various hydrocarbon fractions in a conventional VGO (saturated SF, aromatic AF and resin RF) and the whole VGO on the coke formed in their catalytic cracking was evaluated over two Y ...

The influence on gas-phase catalytic glycerol dehydration of crystal size (S: small, or L: large crystals), acidity, and synthesis procedure for isomorphous incorporation of gallium (Ga-S; Ga-L) or aluminum (Al-S; Al-L) ...

Deactivation of ferrierite during the skeletal isomerization of 1-butene at atmospheric pressure and 0.15 atm 1-butene partial pressure was studied. At 300°C, the carbon content shows a sharp increase during the first 30 ...
