Problems solved by technology

However, the common problems in the existing waste catalyst metal recovery technology are: use higher temperature to pulverize the waste catalyst after carbon removal, then use alkaline solution to leach metal vanadium and molybdenum, use acidic solution to leach metal cobalt and nickel, and finally The generated waste residue needs to be discharged for disposal
[0007] Since heavy oil and residual oil contain a large amount of metal impurities such as nickel, vanadium, and iron, they are easily deposited on the surface of the hydrotreating catalyst during the hydrotreating process, resulting in deactivation of the hydrotreating catalyst
At present, there is no report on how to remove the metal impurities deposited in the deactivated hydrotreating catalyst and restore the pore structure and activity of the catalyst

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for regenerating deactivated catalysts produced during petroleum refining, in particular to a method for regenerating deactivated hydrotreating catalysts caused by deposition of metal impurities such as nickel and vanadium. Background technique [0002] During the hydrogenation reaction, the activity of the catalyst gradually decreases with the prolongation of operation time and eventually becomes deactivated. There are many factors that cause catalyst deactivation, among which coke deposition is the most important factor. Coke is usually deposited on the catalyst surface to block the pores and cover the active sites of the catalyst, thereby reducing the reaction activity. Deactivated spent catalysts are typically regenerated and reused. The spent catalyst that cannot be regenerated is discarded as solid waste. The vast majority of catalyst waste in refineries originates from residual hydrotreating and refin...
