HYDROCARBON REFORMING PROCESS

摘要

IMPROVED HYDROCARBON REFORMING PROCESS An improved hydrocarbon reforming process comprising:1) contacting a hydrocarbon feed with a platinum group metal, rhenium-containing catalyst in the presence of hydrogen in at least one reaction zone at a temperature in the range of about 500.degree.F. to about 650.degree.F. for a time sufficient to improve the catalytic activity stability of the catalyst; and thereafter,2) contacting the hydrocarbon chargestock with the catalyst in the presence of hydrogen at hydrocarbon reforming conditions including a higher temperature than the temperature at which step (1) occurred.
