Low lube oil consumption and the use of low-phosphorus oils are guidelines for extended catalyst life.

The tungsten oxide helps with the physical strength of the catalyst and extends catalyst life.

This process for raising octane is now used to produce much of the world's gasoline, improving product yields and lengthening catalyst life.

Therefore, solid catalyst processes have two major hurdles to overcome: catalyst life and catalyst regeneration.

Dehydrogenation reactors in order to prolong catalyst life by means of stabilizing temperature fluctuations within the catalyst bed.

The EVC process operates at a temperature below 500 degC, reducing corrosion and extending catalyst life, and uses a new catalyst which gives high yields with low by-products.
