Improve reformer yield and hydrogen selectivity with tri-metalic catalyst

Journal Article · · Fuel Reformulation
OSTI ID:81140
A new tri-metallic reforming catalyst has been developed for semi-regenerative reforming. This catalyst gives improved C{sub 5}+ yield and improved hydrogen yield compared with conventional Pt/Re catalyst. Its stability is equivalent to balanced Pt/Re catalyst. Commercial experience indicates that the annual increase in product value ranges from $600,000/year to $2.5 million/year for a typical 20,000-b/d reformer at current U.S. product prices depending on the refinery hydrogen balance.
