Abstract

In this article a study about catalyst regeneration is been put forward. A study of how catalyst regeneration is done, why there is a need of regeneration and also about catalyst deactivation mainly in refinery processes. Catalyst Regeneration is widely used in many industries by in-situ or ex-situ methods as an economical beneficial technique for processes. In this article I have also shared some important test done on catalyst before they are used in a specific process. Catalyst Regeneration is mainly seen where the spent catalyst is costly.
