Regeneration of used supported noble metal catalysts

A method for regenerating used supported noble metal catalysts, which method includes solvent cleaning the used catalyst by contact with a suitable organic liquid cleaning solvent such as alcohols, ketones and such to remove organic deposits from the catalyst, followed by drying and calcining at elevated temperature to remove any remaining organic deposits from the catalyst, then treating the catalyst with an organo-metallic complex forming agent having ionization constant pK1 greater than about 2.5, such as glycolic acid and the like. The organic-metallic complex forming agent acts to break down large clusters of noble metal particles such as palladium (Pd) and redistributes the metal particles on the catalyst support such as alumina (Al2O3) in the same or other larger pores, so as to increase catalyst surface area and catalytic activity to provide a catalytic activity level at least 80% or even exceeding that of the fresh catalyst. This regeneration method is particularly useful for regenerating used supported palladium catalysts utilized for hydrogenation of ethyl anthraquinone (EAQ) for producing hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) product.

Method of restoring catalytic activity to a spent hydrotreating catalyst, the resulting restored catalyst, and a method of hydroprocessing

A method of restoring catalytic activity to a spent hydroprocessing catalyst that has a first carbon concentration. The concentration of carbon on the spent hydroprocessing catalyst is reduced to provide a carbon-reduced catalyst having a second carbon concentration that is less than the first carbon concentration. The carbon-reduced catalyst is exposed to a solution, comprising a chelating agent and a solvent, for an aging time period sufficient to provide for a restored catalytic activity thereby resulting in an aged catalyst having incorporated therein the chelating agent and the solvent. The aged catalyst is exposed to conditions, including a drying temperature, so as to remove from the aged catalyst a portion of the solvent without removing a significant portion of the chelating agent from the aged catalyst thereby resulting in a dried aged catalyst. The dried aged catalyst is then sulfur treated to thereby provide a restored catalyst. The restored catalyst and those catalysts made by the treatment method can be used in a hydroprocessing process comprising contacting the restored catalyst with a hydrocarbon feedstock under hydroprocessing conditions.
