Catalyst Testing and Technical Service
Catalyst Testing
A key strength of SUNCHEM’s catalyst business is its unique approach in catalyst performance testing. Our extensive experience in chemical process technology, combined with various types of test equipment, gives us an advantage in providing the best catalyst solutions.
- Capability to test catalyst performance throughout catalyst development and scale-up, from initial screening at mg level to pilot scale at kg level
- Through on-line analysis of raw materials and products, to test catalysts for application in gas and liquid phases
- Continuous fixed bed reactors operating from ambient conditions to 300°C and 20 MPa
- Spinning basket autoclave to rapidly screen fixed bed applications from ambient conditions to 300°C and 20 MPa
- High pressure lab-scale tank reactor operating from ambient conditions to 200°C and 15 MPa
- Multistream microreactor systems to study intrinsic chemical reactivity under a wide range of conditions
- Multireactor whole pellet test facility for comparative catalyst performance tests and benchmarking
Technical Service
SUNCHEM always adheres to the mission of “to create value for customers by catalysis”, relying on our own 17 years of research and development experience and the integration of global quality resources to provide users with the one-stop solution.
Highly experienced technical service personnel can provide advice on revised operating conditions, to maximize the potential of the catalyst and assist in many aspects of process catalyst operations as follows:
- Catalyst selection
- Operating conditions and life predictions
- Catalyst loading
- Catalyst evaluation
- Catalyst modification, customization, and development
- Start up, shut down and regeneration procedures
- Trouble shooting
- Analysis and optimization service for catalyst poisoning and deactivation
- Establishing basic flow sheets for new applications
- Recovery service for spent catalysts
