Resid Hydrogenation RG series guard catalyst

Resid Hydrogenation RG series guard catalyst

Overview of product performance and technical characteristics:

RG series guard catalyst has the characteristics of high bed void rate, good strength, large pore volume, and reasonable match of activity and size, etc.. This series catalyst includes RG-1, RG-20, RG-20A, RG-20B, RG-30, RG-30E, RG-30A, RG-30B, which can be used separately or collectively.

RG-1 and RG-20 are inertia guard catalysts playing the role of capturing the particle in residue oil, improving the flow status of fluid and reducing the bed pressure drop.

RG-20A/RG-20B are Ni-Mo/Al2O3 guard catalysts with the appearance of Raschig ring. They are mainly used to remove and tolerate the impurities as Fe, Ca, Na, etc. as well as partial Ni and V in the feed and reduce the bed pressure drop.

RG-30E/ RG-30A/ RG-30B are Ni-Mo/Al2O3 guard catalysts with the appearance of beehive column and Raschig ring. They are improved products of RG-20x series catalyst usually loaded under RG-20 for removing Fe, Ca and Na, etc. as well as partial Ni and V in the feed. Furthermore, they can apparently reduce the bed pressure drop.

The activity of RG-20, RG-30E, RG-20A/ RG-30A, RG-20B/ RG-30B is increased gradually, the size is decreased in turn, and therefore, the catalysts have the excellent activity and size grading so as to effectively protect main catalyst.

The series catalyst is applicable to hydrotreating process of poor quality feedstock (heavy oil). Usually, it is loaded in the top of reactor to capture the particles and remove the impurities such as Fe, Ca, Na, etc., in the feed.
