Effect of adding nitrogen-, sulphur- and organic chlorine compounds on aromatization of hydrocarbons in the presence of platinum and platinum-rheinum catalysts

X‐ray induced reduction of rhenium salts and supported oxide catalysts

“…Rhenium is also used in catalysis. Pt–Re‐based catalysts, for example, are used for the catalytic reforming of low‐octane naphtha to high‐octane petrol, because of their excellent resilience to poisoning from sulfur and phosphorous . Rhenium is also used for olefin metathesis, where typically Re 2 O 7 is supported on alumina, partial oxidation and dehydrogenation reactions .…”
