State-of-the-art catalysts
The redesign will enable Pemex to supply the market with ultra low sulphur diesel with less than 15 wt ppm from the Tula and Salamanca refineries.

The latest generation of Topsoe’s state-of-the-art TK BRIM™ catalysts are applied providing Pemex with operational and cost benefits.

"This project further strengthens Topsoe’s position as the leading supplier of ultra low sulphur diesel technology and catalysts in Mexico as well as worldwide," says Vice President Peter Thoft Knudsen, Technology Division.

Scope of supply
Topsoe’s scope of supply includes license, pilot plant testing, revamp studies, basic engineering, catalysts and proprietary reactor internals.
