Homemade catalyst unveiled in petchem industry
The C2 catalyst for acetylene hydrogenation, which is known as an accelerator of chemical reactions in the petrochemical industry, was unveiled on the sidelines of the exhibition, Tasnim News Agency
reported.
The catalyst was produced for the first time in Iran and Asia and the monopoly of several European countries and the US in its production was broken.
The acetylene hydrogenation catalyst (Front-end), which was introduced as ACF-11 catalyst, is used in the acetylene saturation in the olefin unit reactor which plays an important role in completing the petrochemical process. According to CEO of the Amirkabir Petrochemical Company Saeed Sadeghi this catalyst was designed and made in cooperation with a knowledge-based company.
