Synthesis gas and hydrocarbon streams are the lifeblood of many chemical manufacturing processes, including the production of ammonia, methanol, and various petrochemicals. However, these streams often contain detrimental impurities, with chlorides being a significant concern. The application of effective antichlor catalysts is crucial for maintaining process integrity and product quality.

Antichlors, specifically designed to remove chlorine-based contaminants, are vital for protecting downstream equipment and catalytic systems. For synthesis gas, which is typically produced from natural gas, coal, or biomass, the presence of chlorides can lead to the deactivation of catalysts used in methanol or ammonia synthesis. Therefore, a high-performance synthesis gas purification catalyst is essential.

Similarly, hydrocarbon streams, whether in refining or petrochemical operations, can carry chlorine impurities. These can cause corrosion in heat exchangers, pipelines, and compressors, leading to costly repairs and operational disruptions. Addressing this requires robust solutions for gaseous hydrocarbon dechlorination. Catalysts designed for this purpose must be effective over a range of operating conditions, including normal and low temperatures.

The development of metal oxide-based antichlors has provided significant advancements in this area. These catalysts often feature high chlorine capacity and can achieve very high purification degrees, reducing chlorine content to minimal levels. For instance, catalysts that can operate effectively between -4-60ºC are particularly valuable for processes that require cooling or operate in colder climates. Such a low temperature chloride removal agent ensures consistent performance regardless of ambient or process temperatures.

The efficacy of these antichlors is often measured by their ability to remove chlorine from various feedstocks, including those with higher initial concentrations. For example, achieving a final chlorine level below 0.1 ppm from an input of 200 ppm showcases the advanced capabilities of these purification agents. This precision is especially critical when the antichlor is used as a fine dechlorination catalyst for hydrogen, which is often a component of synthesis gas or used in hydrogenation processes.
