Isomerization Catalysts High iC4/nC4 equilibrium and High octane C5/C6 cuts via isomerization processes
High iC4/nC4 equilibrium
Chlorinated alumina is the catalyst of choice thanks to its high activity permitting operation at lower reactor temperatures that enable higher iC4/nC4 equilibrium and favor superior yields. The use of molecular sieve adsorbents on the feed and hydrogen make-up streams ensures the removal of feed contaminants and long catalyst lifetimes.
Axens isomerization technology uses ATIS-1L catalyst, which provides an unsurpassed combination of high activity, low cost, and low platinum content.
ATIS-1L
ATIS-1L is used in refinery for the isomerization of paraffinic C4 cuts resulting in improvement of the iC4/nC4 equilibrium.
High octane C5/C6 cuts
Chlorinated alumina is the catalyst of choice thanks to its high activity permitting operation at lower reactor temperatures that enable higher product RON and favor superior yields. The use of molecular sieve adsorbents on the feed and hydrogen make-up streams ensures the removal of feed contaminants and long catalyst lifetimes.
Axens isomerization technologies use ATIS-2L catalyst, which provides an unsurpassed combination of high activity, low cost, and low platinum content.
ATIS-2L
ATIS-2L is used in refinery for the isomerization of paraffinic C5-C6 cuts resulting in RON and MON improvement of light gasoline sent to the motor gasoline pool.
Reactions taking place include skeletal isomerization, naphthenic ring opening and aromatics hydrogenation.
