Alumina Supported Catalysts

What are Alumina Supported Catalysts? Alumina Supported Catalysts are composed of an alumina base, and are widely used in hydrotreating, hydrocracking and chemical synthesis. Like other FCC Catalysts, Sieving alumina supported catalysts is a necessary process in order to maximize catalytic efficiency and improve reactor performance. Sieving alumina supported catalysts using conventional vibratory screening machines can be a difficult process due to the fine particle size requirements of the industry and well as the materials tendency to agglomerate. These conventional sieves can struggle to screen below 100um and will result in the screen mesh becoming blinded when attempting to sieve any finer.

Contract Manufacturing Experience

Elcan Industries has successfully sieved alumina supported catalysts at fine sizes as low as 20 microns using our advanced Hi-Sifter sieving machine. The Hi-Sifter employs a strong vertical energy and unlike conventional screeners, does not require the use of balls sliders or ultrasonics. The energy spectrum allows for the alumina to “jump” on the screening surface while staying elevated inside of the system This method of screening not only prevents screen mesh blinding from occurring, but also allows for processing at much finer mesh hole openings. The system is the only screening in the world to use a tensionless screen cloth which allows user to change the mesh on their own without having to incur a high maintenance cost.
