Artigo IPEN-doc 28152 Extraction of molybdenum from spent NiMo hydrocracking catalysts assisted by ionizing radiation2022 - KONDO, F.M.; DUARTE, C.L.; SOMESSARI, S.L.; SATO, M.I.; SALVADOR, V.L.R.; LIMA, N.B.; MARTINELLI, J.R.; CALVO, W.A.P.A catalyst is a substance that changes the rate of a reaction. In the petroleum industry, the catalysts are commonly used for fluid catalytic cracking and hydrocracking carried out with catalyst, each of them applied in a specific stage. These catalysts are used to facilitate the molecular chains cracking, which will generate a mixture of hydrocarbons. However, the catalyst gradually loses its activity, either by changing its original molecular structure or by its contamination from other petroleum molecules. The application of ionizing radiation (medium-energy electron beam) over these spent catalysts was studied to contribute the extraction of metals or rare-earths of high added-value. Tests conducted with hydrocracking catalysts were used the technique of electron beam irradiation (1.3 MeV) and had as a subject the extraction of molybdenum. Energy Dispersive X-ray analysis was performed on a Shimadzu EDX-720/800HS and X-ray Diffraction analysis on a Rigaku MultiFlex. Electron beam irradiation had a positive contribution if compared to traditional thermal and chemical methods. In temperature around 750 °C, hydrocracking irradiated catalysts of the lower region have an extraction of molybdenum (MoO3) yield twice higher compared to non-irradiated ones, in other words 57.65% and 26.24%, respectively.Artigo IPEN-doc 27971 Extraction of molybdenum from spent cracking catalysts2019 - KONDO, F.M.; DUARTE, C.L.; SOMESSARI, S.L.; SATO, M.I.; SALVADOR, V.L.R.; LIMA, N.B.; MARTINELLI, J.R.; CALVO, W.A.P.A catalyst is a substance that changes the rate of a reaction. In the petroleum industry, the catalysts are commonly used for Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) and Hydro Catalytic Cracking (HCC), each of them applied in a specific stage.

The application of ionizing radiation (medium-energy electron beam) over these spent catalysts was studied to contribute the extraction of metals or rare-earths of high added-value.

The process of catalysis is essential to the modern day manufacturing industry, mainly in FCC (Fluid Catalytic Cracking) process units. However, long-term exploitation of oil and gas processing catalysts leads to formation of carbon- and sulfur-containing structures of coke and dense products on the catalyst surface. They block reactive catalyst sites and reduce the catalytic activity. The main advantage of radiation processing by EB (electron beam) and gamma rays is chain cracking reaction in crude oil. Otherwise, under exposure to ionize radiation, considerable structure modification of equilibrium silica-alumina catalyst from FCC process may occur, in addition to the removal of impurities. The conditions applied in the irradiation range (20-150 kGy) of gamma rays and EB were not sufficient to alter the structure of the catalyst, whether for removal of the contaminant nickel, a major contaminant of the FCC catalyst, either to rupture of the crystalline structure either for the future reutilization of chemical elements. ATR-FTIR (Attenuated Total Reflectance-Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy and EDXRFS (Energy Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence Spectrometry) analysis were used to characterize and evaluate effects of radiation processing on equilibrium catalysts purification. To evaluate and comprehend the reactive catalyst sites, SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) and particle size distribution analyses were carried out.Artigo IPEN-doc 19421 Electron beam application for regeneration of catalysts used in refinery cracking units2013 - KONDO, FERNANDO M.; DUARTE, CELINA L.; SATO, IVONE M.; SALVADOR, VERA L.R.; CALVO, WILSON A.P.
