Traps & Guards
Süd-Chemie manufactures various types of traps and guards for remove impurities in variety of hydrocarbon streams. Most prominently sulfur and chloride are commonly found poisons which have to be removed either to protect a downstream catalyst or to minimise corrosion or just to meet the product specification.
ActiSorb® Series sulfur guards are used to remove various types of sulfur compounds like H2S,COS, mercaptans and thiophenes at temperatures varying from ambient to as high as 350 ºC.
ActiSorb® S7 RS is Nickel based "High Capacity" adsorbent used for sulfur removal from Naptha streams and typically located upstream of light Naphtha Isomerisation units.
ActiSorb® C1 Series are Alumima or Zinc Oxide or Bi-metallic based adsorbents used for removing chlorides from gas or liquid streams such as Net Gas, LPG stream, Fuel gas and stabilizer bottoms in CCR and Isom units.
ActiSorb® F1 are alumina based adsorbents for HF removal from feed to Alkylation unit.
