Reforming Catalysts
The catalysts generally used in catalytic reforming are dual functional to provide two types of catalytic sites, hydrogenation-dehydrogenation sites and acid sites. The former sites are provided by platinum, which is the best known hydrogenation-dehydrogenation catalyst and the latter (acid sites) promote carbonium ion formation and are provided by an alumina carrier. The two types of sites are necessary for aromatization and isomerization reactions.
Bimetallic catalysts such as Pt/Re were found to have better stability, increased catalyst activity, and selectivity. Trimetallic catalysts of noble metal alloys are also used for the same purpose. The increased stability of these catalysts allowed operation at lower pressures. A review of reforming catalysts by Al-Kabbani manifests the effect of the ratio of the metallic components of the catalyst. A ratio of 0.5 or less for Pt/Re in the new generation catalysts versus 1.0 for the older ones can tolerate much higher coke levels. Reforming units can perform similarly with higher coke levels (20–25% versus 15–20%). These catalysts can tolerate higher sulfer naphtha feeds (>1 ppm). Higher profitability may be realized by increasing the cycle length.
