Procatalyse Catalysts & Adsorbents

ACT 139
Catalytic beds protection
ACT 139 has been developped to extend cycle length on units experiencing pressure
drop due to particulate depositions (solid deposits such as rust, gums, coke, ) or top
bed crust formation. ACT 139 replaces cost effectively ineffective inert alumina balls
used for bed hold-on at the top of catalytic reactors operating in liquid, mixed or vapor
phase, such as Hydrogenation/Hydrotreating or similar applications.
The bed topping is a highly inert alumina with round shape.
ACT 139 is one of the sucessive stages proposed by Axens in pressure drop control
strategy.
