Process and apparatus for regenerating catalyst with supplemental fuel
Higher temperature regenerated dehydrogenation catalyst is mixed with the lower temperature spent dehydrogenation catalyst from a dehydrogenation reaction to heat the spent catalyst. Air or other oxygen containing gas may be introduced to facilitate mixing. The mixing of hot regenerated catalyst with cooler spent catalyst increases the temperature of the spent catalyst and makes the coke on catalyst and in the supplemental fuel gas instantly ready to combust without the delay necessary to heat up the spent catalyst to combustion temperature. The regenerated dehydrogenation catalyst may be mixed with the spent dehydrogenation catalyst before the mixture of catalyst is contacted with the supplemental fuel gas. Combustion with fuel gas should be conditioned to avoid generation of a flame.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR REACTIVE REGENERATION OF SELECTIVE CATALYTIC REDUCTION CATALYSTS
A controller for controlling regeneration of a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst of an aftertreatment system is configured to cause increase in a SCR catalyst temperature of the SCR catalyst to a first regeneration temperature, the first regeneration temperature being lower than a high regeneration temperature that is equal to or greater than 500 degrees Celsius. The controller is configured to determine an amount of ammonia slip downstream of the SCR catalyst; and cause an increase in the SCR catalyst temperature to a second regeneration temperature greater than the first regeneration temperature but lower than the high regeneration temperature based on the determined amount of ammonia slip.

REMOVAL OF HOMOGENEOUS CATALYSTS FROM NMR/MRI AGENTS HYPERPOLARIZED VIA SABRE OR PHIP
The present disclosure provides a method that embodies a simple and effective route to remove homogeneous catalysts from solutions wherein NMR/MRI signal amplification by reversible exchange (SABRE) or parahydrogen-induced polarization (PHIP) is performed. A method for recovering a homogeneous SABRE/PHIP catalyst for reuse is also described.
COKE CONTROL REACTOR, AND DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PREPARING LOW-CARBON OLEFINS FROM OXYGEN-CONTAINING COMPOUND
A coke control reactor, and a device and method for preparing low-carbon olefins from an oxygen-containing compound are provided. The coke control reactor includes a coke control reactor shell, a reaction zone I, and a coke controlled catalyst settling zone; a cross-sectional area at any position of the reaction zone I is less than that of the coke controlled catalyst settling zone; n baffles are arranged in a vertical direction in the reaction zone I; the n baffles divide the reaction zone I into m reaction zone I subzones; and a catalyst circulation hole is formed in each of the baffles, such that a catalyst flows in the reaction zone I in a preset manner. A catalyst charge in the present coke control reactor can be automatically adjusted, and an average residence time of a catalyst in the coke control reactor can be controlled by changing process operating conditions.

REGENERATION AND ACTIVATION OF CATALYSTS FOR CARBON AND SYNGAS PRODUCTION
A method to regenerate and reactivate catalysts used for a carbon and syngas production reaction including a DRM or CARGEN reaction is developed. Carbon dioxide (CO.sub.2) is used as the regeneration and activation media. This method of a single step regeneration and activation using CO.sub.2 is more effective than the existing conventional two-step process that includes separate reduction and oxidation steps. This method produces pure carbon monoxide (CO) as a byproduct from the regeneration process by utilizing CO.sub.2 and carbon.
