Refinery Catalyst Testing: Selecting the best catalyst with confidence

Catalyst selection have a big impact on refinery economics both on daily operations and long-term planning. With refineries still relying heavily upon the know-how of the catalyst vendors, selecting a new catalyst loading, are mostly based on the performance projections and guarantees of the catalyst suppliers without their active involvement.

Comparing all available options based on vendor paper estimates/forecasts or even on pilot plant results from different vendors – even if executed on your feed and conditions – is virtually impossible.

During this session, Avantium will be presenting a practical approach to Independent Refinery Catalyst Testing and how it can help refineries to select the best catalyst.
