REACTIVATION OF MOLYBDENUM CONTAINING OXIDATION CATALYSTS IN FLUID-BED REACTORS

摘要

Molybdenum-containing oxidation catalysts used in a fluid-bed reactor have been discovered to become partially deactivated through loss of molybdenum from the catalyst. These partially deactivated catalysts are regenerated in situ by the addition of fluid-bed particles consisting of an essentially inert support material containing molybdenum.
