Increasing global demand for fuels, the tightening of environmental regulations and the optimization of refineries has led to an increasing demand for catalyst testing capacity. High throughput catalyst testing is a time-efficient approach for meeting this demand, however, in the past the increase in testing throughput was subsequently accompanied by a loss of data quality. Catalytic naphtha reforming is a challenging application for the parallel testing of catalysts due to multi-component feeds with related complex chemistry, varying feed and product properties and relatively fast catalyst deactivation.
