- Sinopec Qilu Petrochemical Corporation has chosen
Topsoe’s CATOX catalyst
for cost-efficient control of
volatile organic compounds (VOC)
at their rubber plant in Zibo, China. - The facility has two lines
with a total capacity of 240,000 Nm3/h,
which makes it the largest current
styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) emissions control project
in Asia. - Sinopec Qilu focused on
*guaranteed emission compliance,
*short delivery time,
*and low investment costs.
Haldor Topsoe has delivered the catalyst charge
for a new regenerative catalytic oxidizer
at the Sinopec Qilu styrene-butadiene rubber plant in Zibo
– the biggest rubber producer in China and part of Sinopec Group,
the world’s largest oil refining, gas & petrochemical conglomerate.
Mr. Li,
Vice Plant Director of Sinopec Qilu Rubber
“The catalyst performance has been excellent since start up.
We have been very happy with the fast catalyst delivery
from Topsoe,”.
The catalyst has been optimized
to meet Sinopec Qilu’s requirements for
performance, total investment cost, and pressure drop.
Topsoe R&D delivered advanced performance measurements
that enabled design for the optimal platinum load
in order to meet the required emission limits.
This has led to a very competitive product
at the lowest possible cost.
The tailor-made catalyst was delivered to Sinopec Qilu
in less than three months.
The CATOX catalyst is a platinum monolith
that oxidizes hazardous volatile organic compounds (VOC)
into harmless CO2 and H2O at very low temperatures,
saving energy and investment costs.
The CATOX catalyst is suited for a number of industries in addition to
* SBR, including
* purified terephthalic acid (PTA),
* formaldehyde, ethylene oxide, and CO2 purification.
Topsoe provides cutting-edge complete VOC removal solutions
or individual deliveries according to customer requirements.
The solutions do not generate secondary pollution
and can reduce or even eliminate the use of auxiliary fuels.
Topsoe has done research and development of
VOC removal processes and catalysts since the late 1970s.
