Abstract: This disclosure describes a method for regenerating a semi-regenerated reforming catalyst. The method comprises adjusting the reaction temperature to 250-480° C., introducing a sulfur-containing naphtha into the reforming reactor, or stopping introducing a feedstock into the reforming reactor, and introducing a sulfur-containing hydrogen into a recycle gas, until the sulfur content in the catalyst is 0.32-0.8 mass %, then the catalyst is subject to coke-burning, oxychlorination and reduction. Alternatively, the method first subjects the spent catalyst to coke-burning followed by introducing sulfate ions thereinto; and then performing oxychlorination and reduction. Disclosed is still another method for regenerating a platinum-rhenium reforming catalyst, which comprises coke-burning the spent catalyst; introducing sulfur and chlorine in the catalyst by impregnation; and then drying, calcinating and reducing.

Abstract: A naphtha reforming catalyst, comprising an alumina support and following components with the content calculated on the basis of the support: VIII group metal 0.1-2.0% by weight, VIIB group metal 0.1-3.0% by weight, sulfate ion 0.45-3.0% by weight, and halogen 0.5-3.0% by weight. The catalyst is used in a naphtha reforming reaction without presulfurization and has a high aromatization activity and a selectivity.

There is still another method for regenerating a platinum-rhenium reforming catalyst, comprising coke-burning the spent catalyst; introducing sulfur and chlorine by impregnation; then drying, calcinating and reducing. The catalysts regenerated by said methods can be used without presulfurization and have excellent regeneration performance.
