A regeneration method for a benzene alkylation solid acid catalyst, comprising: purging the solid acid catalyst in a reactor with a gas; continuously injecting n-hexane at a feed port of the reactor and heating the n-hexane to wash the solid acid catalyst, and discharging the n-hexane entraining benzene alkylation reaction residues from a discharge port of the reactor; and stopping injecting n-hexane, cleaning off a liquid in the reactor by purging with the gas, and cooling the reactor. In the regeneration method of the present disclosure, the regeneration liquid used is n-hexane, which can increase the solubility of the residues in channels and enhance the regeneration effect. Meanwhile, permanent damage to the channel structure of the catalyst caused by carbon burning regeneration can be avoided, thereby prolonging the lifetime of the catalyst.

A method for producing light aromatics, includes the steps of: i) contacting a feedstock comprising heavy aromatic(s) with a catalyst in a fluidized reactor for aromatics lightening reaction in the presence of hydrogen to obtain a product rich in C6-C8 light aromatic(s) and a spent catalyst, wherein the heavy aromatic is one or more selected from C9+ aromatics; ii) separating the resulted product rich in C6-C8 light aromatic(s) to obtain hydrogen, a non-aromatic component, C6-C8 light aromatic(s) and a C9+ aromatic component; and iii) recycling at least a part of the C9+ aromatic component to the fluidized reactor. The method has strong adaptability to feedstocks and high flexibility in operation and allows a long-period stable operation. The method can produce high-value light aromatics from heavy aromatics that are difficult to be treated and utilized.
