Sulfur compounds are common contaminants in many industrial feedstocks, posing a significant threat to the longevity and performance of catalysts. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. understands the challenge of sulfur poisoning and focuses on developing catalysts with inherent protection mechanisms, especially for applications like low temperature shift (LTS) catalysis in hydrogen production and ammonia synthesis.

Sulfur poisoning occurs when sulfur compounds adsorb onto the active sites of a catalyst, blocking them and rendering the catalyst less effective. In LTS catalysts, which often rely on copper as the active component, sulfur can be particularly detrimental. However, modern catalyst formulations incorporate specific promoters and bases that act as sulfur scavengers. For example, the inclusion of zinc oxide (ZnO) in many LTS catalysts not only provides structural support but also serves to inhibit copper poisoning by sulfur and chlorine compounds. This is a key aspect of the RL83 catalyst chemical properties that contribute to its reliability.

The development of sulfur poison resistant catalyst technologies is critical for maintaining operational efficiency in processes involving feedstocks from sources such as oil fields or coke ovens. The advantages of low temperature shift catalysts are amplified when they possess this protective capability, extending their service life and reducing the frequency of catalyst change-outs. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. prioritizes these protective features in its product development.

Ensuring a catalyst’s resilience against poisons is as important as its initial activity. For businesses involved in oil field gas processing, coke oven gas conversion, or general industrial chemical catalyst needs, selecting a catalyst with robust sulfur tolerance is a strategic decision. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. offers solutions that deliver both high performance and long-term stability, making us a trusted partner for your catalyst for chemical auxiliary and catalyst requirements.
