Abstract: A method for separation of at least one catalyst or adsorbent from a homogeneous mixture of catalysts or adsorbents, used in a method for treatment of gas or hydrocarbon feedstock, in which the grains of catalysts or adsorbents are separated according to a sorting threshold corresponding to a content of the constituent element that is sought and defined by the user.

Abstract: A method and a device for separation of at least one catalyst and/or adsorbent from a homogeneous mixture of catalysts and/or adsorbents containing one or more metal, semi-metal or non-metal contaminant(s) deposited thereon, making it possible to separate catalysts or adsorbents according to the presence or absence of contaminant and also according to the contaminant content, starting from a sorting threshold that corresponds to a content and that is defined by the operator.

Abstract: A method and device for separating at least one catalyst from a mixture of homogeneously shaped catalysts, the catalysts comprising at least one metal selected from the group formed by Ni, Co, Mo, W, the catalyst to be separated comprising a characteristic metal selected from the group formed by Ni, Co, Mo, W and the other catalysts of the mixture not containing said characteristic metal, in which method: the grains of the catalyst of said mixture pass in front of the LIBS detection system, the presence of said characteristic metal in the catalysts is detected by the LIBS technique, the wavelength being selected so as to detect said characteristic metal, the LIBS detection system sends a signal to a means for evacuating grains of catalyst to be separated in a manner such as to separate said grains from the other catalysts of said mixture.

Abstract: Process for the elimination of mercury contained in a heavy hydrocarbon-containing feedstock downstream of a main fractionation unit, a process in which: a) the non-elemental mercury contained in the compounds of said feedstock is transformed to elemental mercury; b) a fractionation of said hydrocarbon-containing feedstock is carried out in a fractionation unit in order to produce a top effluent comprising elemental mercury; c) the top effluent obtained in stage b) is brought into contact with a mercury capture material contained in a unit for the capture of mercury, in order to obtain an effluent that is at least partially de-mercurized.

Abstract: Process for the elimination of mercury contained in a heavy hydrocarbon-containing feedstock upstream of a main fractionation unit, a process in which: a) the non-elemental mercury contained in the compounds of said feedstock is transformed to elemental mercury, b) a separation of the feedstock obtained in stage a) is carried out in a separation unit, that consists of producing a liquid effluent and a gaseous effluent comprising elemental mercury; c) the gaseous effluent originating from stage b) comprising the elemental mercury is brought into contact with a mercury capture material contained in a unit for the capture of mercury, in order to produce an effluent that is at least partially de-mercurized.
