For High Performance
Axens offers end-to-end refining solutions across applications like hydrocracking, catalytic reforming, sulfur recovery, Bottom of the Barrel Conversion, Crude-to-Chemicals complex and more, optimizing refinery performance and output quality.
Reforming & Isomerization
Catalytic reforming drives global gasoline production, supplying aromatics for petrochemicals, major source for refinery hydrogen; C5/C6 isomerization is crucial for boosting gasoline pool profitability.
Hydrocracking
Hydrocracking converts heavy feeds into high-value clean fuels and premium petrochemical feedstock, meeting modern refinery objectives.
Prime-G+: Selective Desulfurization of FCC Gasoline
Axens Prime-G+® technology is the market leader for selective hydrodesulfurization (HDS) of cracked naphtha from Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) units.
Hydrotreatment
Hydrotreatment removes impurities from feedstocks to produce cleaner and high-quality fuels.
Residue Upgrading & Conversion
Bottom of the Barrel Upgrading Technologies are key technologies to maximize the production of liquid fuels and petrochemical intermediates.
Catalytic Cracking (FCC)
Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) technologies convert heavy hydrocarbons, such as gas oil and residues, into valuable lighter products like gasoline and olefins.
Selective and Total Hydrogenation
Selective hydrogenation units, are essential in the purification of olefins and aromatics streams to remove impurities such as acetylenes and dienes ensuring high-quality end products.
Specialized Applications
Sulfur Recovery
Sulfur Recovery technologies ensure compliance with the strictest environmental regulations while minimizing both capital and operational expenses.
Adsorbents
Advanced adsorbent solutions are crucial for enhancing product quality and process efficiency in oil refining. They effectively remove various contaminants, including water, metals, and other impurities.
