Tri-State Catalyst Club Symposium '84. Abstracts

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5490454
This report contains abstracts of 11 papers given at the Tri-State Catalyst Club Symposium held May 23, 1984 at the Marriott Hotel, Lexington, Kentucky. Most of the papers deal with physical measurements on fresh and used catalysts: Auger electron spectroscopy, small angle scattering (x-rays and neutrons), electron microscopy (including electron diffraction and electron microprobe analysis), surface area measurement, chemical preparation, etc. One paper describes an automated BET apparatus for measuring surface area and pore size distribution. One paper describes the regeneration of spent catalysts used for cracking residual fuels. To limit the heat released in this process, carbon dioxide is used - the Boudouard reaction (endothermic). One paper discusses the selectivity and yield of active catalyst embedded in a less active material in various ways. (LTN)
