Modern state of the catalytic reforming of petrol fractions. Experience of manufacture and industrial exploitation of reforming catalysts of the PR series

Analysis of the modern state of catalytic reforming is performed. Comparative assessment of the efficiency of various technologies of the process is given and their distribution in Russia and abroad is shown. Experience of the modernization of reforming installations with periodic catalyst regeneration is summarized. The state of manufacture of reforming catalysts in our country and accumulated experience of the development of catalysts of the PR series are presented. Results of industrial exploitation of new domestic reforming catalysts are shown. On this basis comparative assessment of Russian and imported catalysts is given. Original Russian Text D.I.
