Abstract

A method for reactivating catalysts which comprises the steps of: PA1 jetting dry steam into a reactor which is charged with the catalysts deteriorated in performance, in order to remove dust adhering to and accumulating on the surfaces of the catalysts; PA1 spraying wet steam of 0.4 or less in wetness thereinto to elute and remove water-soluble poisonous materials accumulated inside the catalysts; and PA1 drying the catalysts with the dry steam.
