ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a catalyst for the reforming of hydrocarbon streams. This catalyst comprises iridium as a hydrogenation component on a support of zirconia and alumina. The support comprises zirconia in an amount of about 3 wt.% to about 15 wt.% zirconia or at least 60 wt.% zirconia. The iridium is present in an amount of about 0.05 wt.% to about 1.5 wt.%, calculated as the metal and based upon the total weight of the catalyst.
Also disclosed is a reforming process, which process comprises contacting a hydrocarbon stream in a reaction zone under reforming conditions and in the presence of hydrogen with the above-described catalyst.
