개요
Catalytic reforming converts low-octane naphtha into high-octane reformate for gasoline blending and produces hydrogen as a valuable byproduct. The process uses platinum-based catalysts (Pt-Re or Pt-Sn on alumina) to promote dehydrogenation, isomerization, and cyclization reactions that convert paraffins and naphthenes into aromatic compounds. The hydrogen produced is consumed in hydroprocessing units throughout the refinery. Nearly every refinery in the world operates at least one catalytic reformer.
화학 공정
Desulfurized naphtha is heated to 480-530 degrees C and passed over Pt-Re/Al₂O₃ catalyst at 5-25 bar in a series of 3-4 reactors with interstage reheating. The reformate product is separated from hydrogen and light gases in a separator drum. The process is net hydrogen-producing.
n-C₇H₁₆ → C₇H₈ (toluene) + 4H₂ (dehydrocyclization)
원자재
-
Heavy naphtha (C₆-C₁₂) — Crude distillation unit (Feedstock (60-90 RON))
-
Pt-Re/Al₂O₃ catalyst — Specialty catalyst manufacturers (Bifunctional catalyst)
최종 제품
-
Reformate — Gasoline blending component (95-105 RON, rich in aromatics)
-
Hydrogen (H₂) — Hydrotreating and hydrocracking (85-90% purity, major refinery H₂ source)
Environmental Impact
The process itself is energy-intensive due to the highly endothermic dehydrogenation reactions. Benzene in reformate is a regulated carcinogen, and refineries must control benzene content in gasoline. Spent platinum catalysts require specialized recovery and regeneration.
안전 고려사항
- ⚠ High-temperature hydrogen-rich atmosphere — fire and explosion risk
- ⚠ Benzene is a known carcinogen — exposure monitoring required
- ⚠ Catalyst regeneration involves chlorine-containing compounds
- ⚠ Reactor internals operate under severe thermal cycling
최근 혁신
Continuous catalyst regeneration (CCR) technology by UOP allows operation at lower pressures and higher severity, increasing aromatic yields and hydrogen production.
New Pt-Sn catalysts offer improved selectivity and longer cycle lengths.
