Abstract

A reversibly deactivated hydrocarbon synthesis catalyst in a hydrocarbon synthesis slurry is rejuvenated by successively passing the slurry through at least two rejuvenation stages external of the slurry reactor, each of which comprises a rejuvenation zone followed by an offgas removal zone. This is accomplished by using a lift pipe outside the reactor into which slurry from the reactor is passed and contacts a catalyst rejuvenating gas to partially rejuvenate the catalyst particles and form a rejuvenation offgas. The gas and slurry mixture are passed into a vessel in which the gas is removed from the slurry. Rejuvenation gas is bubbled into the slurry in the vessel to further rejuvenate the catalyst. A gas removing downcomer removes gas from the slurry in the vessel before it is passed back into the reactor.
The rejuvenation gas also acts as a lift gas in the lift pipe.
