Hello

 

during the progress of reforming unit (UOP process) the octane number of platformat is reducing then we think about the decrease of catalyst performance.

 

this problem can be resolved with regeneration. but we all know that the catalyst has Cycle time and lifetime.

 

i want to know how this properties of catalysts can be affected may be crystallinity, specific surface, activity..etc.

 

is there any analysis techniques (DRX, BET srface, SEM..etc) can be used to judge what are the properties of catalyst that can be affected during the processing of reforming unit.

 

thank you very much
