The invention discloses a catalyst for selective hydrogenation of
pyrolysis gasoline. The catalyst comprises an
alumina supporter with a pore-expanding structure, wherein the
alumina supporter is supported with
metal palladium and
nickel oxide, the content of the
metal palladium is 0.1-0.15% of total weight of the catalyst, and the content of the
nickel oxide is 8-10% of the total weight of the catalyst. The surface of the obtained
alumina supporter with the pore-expanding structure is modified by using
calcium, and the surface of the supporter is further modified by combining with impregnation way, and part of micropores formed in the surface of the supporter can be effectively peptized, so that reduction of the proportion of micropores in the surface of the supporter is facilitated, thegeneration of more
active site supporting centers on the surface of the supporter is promoted, the
utilization rate of the
active component nickel is effectively improved, and the selective hydrogenation activity of the
pyrolysis gasoline is improved. In addition, the inner and outer components of the supporter are different in concentration, so that the phenomenon is avoided that
alkyne and
alkadiene easily enter pore channels cause
polymerization reaction and the pore channels are blocked.
