Achieve optimal plant performance with catalyst technical services
Acid plant operators face a number of different obstacles when trying to maximize the profitability of the plant; achieving maximum cycle length, optimizing turnarounds and ensuring the most effective operation, catalyst replacement and maintenance efforts are a few important examples.
As if this was not enough, air pollution is, or is becoming, a significant issue in big cities and highly industrialized regions across the globe. As a consequence, emissions from all sources attract more and more attention from the public and legislators. The increased focus on these issues has affected the sulfuric acid industry through a tightening of the maximum permissible limit for a number of pollutants, one of the more critical being SO2.
The tightened limits can be met with more advanced catalyst, where the most advanced solutions, employing VK69 and LEAP5 catalyst, can achieve SO2-emission levels down to 20 ppm.
