Chemical and Catalyst Industries
Catalyst supports
NORIT® activated carbon catalyst support grades, are used by leading catalyst manufacturers to produce noble metal and other heterogeneous catalysts. These catalysts then find use in a range of processes, from fine chemical / pharma synthesis, to vinyl chloride monomer production and mercaptan oxidation.
NORIT activated carbon catalyst carriers bring:
- A high dispersion of the active phase
- Fast diffusion of reactants and products (enhancing selectivity)
- A high durability to avoid active phase losses (especially in eggshell catalysts) and to allow multiple rounds of re-use
- An easy recovery of the metal phase by burning off the carbon
For this we supply from our highly controlled production:
- Catalyst support grades with high purity and high consistency
- Different pore structures and surface characteristics
- Extruded grades with superior hardness
- Powdered grades with especially defined particle size distributions
