SR - 109, 110 or ....- 111 (H2S) Multiple problems can be addressed in a single vessel. For the removal of sulfur, chloride species and other impurities from refining or petrochemical feedstreams , Unicat's mixed bed design technology matches their diverse line of purification adsorbents and catalysts to the specific impurity type , concentration, temperature and other relevant purification conditions. Unicat's broad product line and mixed bed design technology has the flexibility to provide optimal purification performance, even in the most severe environments. Severity of service and operating temperature, including trace removal for ultra-purification applications, are taken into consideration . un icatcatalyst. com .... -.. J ----. TSR - 117G (Eliminate COS, RSH and H2S) SR- 110C (Polish COS , RSH and lower H2S) SYNGAS CATALYSTS Unicat's expertise can optimize the overall operation of hydrogen and ammonia plants by: Selecting front end sulfur removal catalysts to provide longer run life for units in the plant Reducing compression costs by lowering pressure drop through every unit in the plant Minimizing the affect of condensate or steam leaks on high temperature shift catalysts Minimizing the affect of amine carryover or steam leaks on methanation catalysts Unicat Catalyst Technologies offers a full range of SynGas catalysts, including catalysts for total sulfur removal, pre-reforming, reforming, secondary reforming, high and low temperature shift, methanation and PSA adsorbents. Unicat Catalyst Technologies is a full service catalyst company that provides creative solutions through field and research and development programs to optimize the performance of the most difficult hydrogen and ammonia plant operational issues. The following are two examples of Unicat's advanced catalyst technology. Unicat NG-700-LPD Series SynGas reforming catalysts are a patent-pending MAH (multi-axial hole) design with domed ends, four side-wall channels, four holes parallel to the cylinder axis hole, plus two holes that are perpendicular and through the cylinder axis and are oriented 90 0 to each other. The NG-700-LPD Series SynGas catalysts can lower the pressure drop up to 20% and increase the available, active surface area more than 15% versus all other currently available steam reforming catalysts. The patented production procedure for the LPD series catalyst with MAH design permits the catalyst crush strength to remain quite high and comparable to standard reforming catalysts. NG-700-LPD Series catalyst Unicat HS-500 is a very high activity, CuO promoted HTS catalyst with a post reduction crush strength >27 lb-f, the highest in the industry. The HS-500 's high density and high post reduction crush strength allows the product to tolerate a tremendous amount of water carry over and turbulence without breakage. HS-500 is a proven product with exceptional thermal resistance. For example, a large SynGas plant experienced high exotherms for over six months with respective inlet and outlet temperatures of 780 0 F and 900 0 F due to waste heat boiler (WHB) fouling . After WHB repairs and cleaning , Unicat's HS-500 Series high temperature shift catalyst exhibited excellent sintering resistance and thermal stability. The HTS returned to service and respective inlet and outlet temperatures were 680 F and 825 F, without a loss of conversion activity. 0 HS-500 catalyst 0 Unicat can provide a customized review of optimization suggestions for your specific plant's operation. SPA POLYMERIZATION CATALYSTS Polymerization-SPA catalyst systems Unicat PolyCat II and III are the latest generations, since the introduction of PolyCat I in 2003, of Unicat's solid phosphoric acid (SPA) based polymerization catalysts for use in manufacturing octane boost ing, high molecular weight hydrocarbons in tubular or chamber type , fixed bed reactors . PolyCat is used for the oligomerization of light oletins to produce C9 - C12, poly-gasoline or the alkylation of aromatics with gaseous olefins to yield high-purity, alkyl-aromatics, such as Cumene. PolyCat II was developed to provide the highest resistance to pressure drop formation and is typically installed in tubular reactors or in designated pressure drop limited beds of chamber reactors. PolyCat III has the highest yield of Unicat's PolyCat series and is installed in SPA type reactors where maximum activity is typically the only consideration. unicatcatalyst.com PRESSURE DROP BED PROTECTION Unicat AFS™ Active Filtration Sytem Unicat's AFS-HA Series are uniquely shaped filtration grading disks, designed to mitigate pressure drop problems caused by the buildup of various fouling agents in the top grading layers of fixed bed units , improving the unit's run length through Highest effective internal void space - the most foulant capacity Improved flow distribution - flow reaches the most catalyst Dual purpose grading options - CoMo, NiMo, silica trap , polymers, others Selective filtration - filter the targeted foulants A unique aspect of Unicat's bed design technology is its proprietary AFS (active filtration system) bed protection filter disk grading technology that is used to filter fines in hydrotreating units, sulfur guard beds and chloride guard beds. Practically any solid specimen that may cause premature EOR pressure drop conditions can be filtered . Unicat's proven and patented technology significantly increases lifetimes of pressure drop sensitive units, up to 200% or more. AFS has also proven itself in SynGas plants and other applications . In SynGas plants, the high thermal shock resistance and numerous flow channels of AFS minimize or prevent the pressure drop increase in high temperature shift beds that can be caused by water or condensate carryover. A thin (-12 inch) layer at the top of the bed prevents pressure drop increase by dissipating the carryover before it reaches the HTS catalyst, thus preventing break apart and "popcorning" . AFS installed on top of the HDS and rnethanator beds can also mitigate the pressure drop increase caused by carryover of cracked natural gas in the HDS and amines in the methanator. In other applications, AFS has been installed in hydrocrackers, ultraformer catalytic reformers , sulfur guards and tail gas units to filter fines. AFS also filters ammonium chloride salts in chloride beds that can cause pressure drop increase and premature EOR conditions. The open, controlled dimension channels of AFS mitigate pressure drop increase. They maintain and distribute flow, while also filtering the pressure drop-causing particulates through the high fraction , fully flow-accessible internal void spaces of AFS. Unicat's AFS systems are installed in units worldwide . References and case studies are available. Vessel Loading Example: 1.AFS 1010 2. AFS 1025 3. AFS 1050 4. AFS Mini I UDC 1000 5. HT Rings 6.
