Production Technology of a Spherical Support for a Continuous Reforming Catalyst

  • INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGIES OF OIL AND GAS
  • Published:
Chemistry and Technology of Fuels and Oils Aims and scope

The paper presents the technology for producing spherical alumina by the oil-drop method developed at LLC ≪RN-RD CENTER≫. Alumina is modified by tin oxide and is used for the synthesis of reforming catalysts with continuous catalyst regeneration.
