Catalyst Properties and Application
- High temperature resistance (up to 1300 °C)
- Mechanically/thermally stable MgO support
- High loading of active metal
- NH3 and HCN decomposition before Claus units
- Prevents deposition of ammonia salts in downstream Claus units and clogging of Claus catalyst pores (low sulfur recovery)
- Inlet NH3 concentration up to 50 wt.%
Catalyst Properties and Application
- Either high purity alumina or ceramic support balls
- Mechanical support of the catalyst and lifetime prolongation
- High loading of active metal
- Provides temperature distribution and physical protection
