  • Hydrogen as a renewable fuel

    Governments and businesses are increasingly committed to steep decarbonization targets, establishing hydrogen as a key component in the energy transition. As of this writing, McKinsey reports that 64 countries, representing 89% of global CO2 emissions, have made net-zero pledges, while financial institutions and private sector enterprises also continue to increase their decarbonization aspirations. Going forward, the energy mix is projected to shift toward clean electricity, complemented ...

  • Maximize the value of your naphtha feedstocks and downstream processes

    New solutions for changing needs Lighten the burden of heavy feedstocks with Topsoe catalysts, process designs and technologies. If your refinery is like most, you’re under pressure to squeeze more value out of heavier feedstocks, and this presents new challenges for catalysts. To name just one example, increasing use of coker feedstocks has led to higher silica and nitrogen levels in the naphtha streams, requiring catalysts with superior HDN activity and greater surface ...

  • Naphtha to Ethane / Propane (NEP)

    The olefins industry is facing challenges with increasing competitiveness, in terms of cost of production, amidst a growing concern about feedstock security in many parts of the world. While ethane crackers remain the lowest cost to build and operate, many liquid crackers have already been built around the globe. These installations have sought to capture local price discounts for light naphtha and their operation is mainly due to feedstock security. Ethane is not prevalent in ...

  • SOxMASTER-2™

    Optimal SOx reduction without rare earth for partial- and full-burn units. SOx reduction additives are designed to capture and remove the oxidized sulfur compounds present in the FCC unit regenerator and release them in the FCC riser. On release, the sulfur exits the FCC unit as hydrogen sulfide, along with the cracked products in the reactor effluent. The hydrogen sulfide is processed in the gas plant downstream of the FCC unit. Extensive studies in the 1970s looked at the ...

  • Magnetrol / Orion Instruments product line quick reference

    The legacy of Magnetrol traces back to 1932 with Schaub Engineering, marking the birth of the first magnetic liquid level switch, a breakthrough that transformed level control within boiler and feedwater systems. Through its evolution, Magnetrol has set the industry standard for reliable Level and Flow Measurement Solutions, guided by transformative leaders like Judy G. Stevenson, who became owner of the company in 1975. Launched by Magnetrol in 2001, Orion Instruments has ...

  • FCC Main Fractionator Coking

    One common cause for coking is poor vapor distribution. Packing selection in the Slurry P/A section is critical to ensure good distribution and reliable performance. Mellagrid™ combines the performance of Mellapak™ with the robustness of traditional grid. Resists coking and fouling due to its smooth surface and geometrical. Better de-entrainment and separation efficiency than traditional grid. Efficient dissipation of temperature. Excellent mechanical strength.

  • H2S oxidation system for water treatment facilities

    A new water treatment facility in the town of Jupiter, Florida, was causing a serious odor problem. H2S removed from the purified water was being released into the atmosphere. Complaints about the odor came from the residences and businesses downwind of the treatment plant. A turnkey LO-CAT® Hydrogen Sulfide Oxidation System designed to process 30,000 CFM of air containing 250 ppm of H2S solved this problem. Due to the scarcity of fresh water available for treatment ...
