Abstract
The invention relates to an integrated process for assessing one or more properties of a catalyst. In the method, a standard chemical reactor or reactors is/are provided, and a bypass means is also provided, to transport a sample of whatever is added to the industrial reactor, to the test reactor. Both gases and liquids are transferred to the test reactor.
Claims21
A process for assessing at least one property of a catalyst, comprising:
- introducing a mixture of hydrocarbon feedstock and a gas to a chemical reactor which contains a catalyst, said chemical reactor having a bypass means for a portion of said mixture;
- said bypass means being connected to a test reactor which contains a catalyst;
- separating said mixture of hydrocarbon feedstock and the gas into a gas phase and a liquid phase in a separation chamber arranged upstream of said test reactor;
- circulating at least one of the gas phase or the liquid phase in said test reactor to react said at least one of the gas phase and the liquid phase with said catalyst to produce an effluent, and
- testing said effluent to determine a property of said catalyst in said mixture.

A process for assessing at least one property of a catalyst, comprising:
- introducing a mixture of hydrocarbon feedstock and a gas to plurality of chemical reactors each of which contains a catalyst, each of said chemical reactor having a bypass means for a portion of said mixture;
- each of said bypass means being connected to a test reactor which contains a catalyst, wherein a number of the plurality of chemical reactors and test reactors are is equal
- separating said mixture of hydrocarbon feedstock and the gas into a gas phase and a liquid phase in a separation chamber arranged upstream of at least one of said test reactors;
- circulating at least one of the gas phase and the liquid phase in at least one of said test reactors to react said at least one of the gas phase and the liquid phase with said catalyst to produce an effluent from said test reactor, and
- testing said effluent to determine a property of said catalyst in said mixture.
