Catalyst for Selective Hydrogenation of Ethane-ethylene Fraction (CS-2084)

Problem and implemented solution

The catalyst for selective hydrogenation of ethane-ethylene fraction eliminates the problem of low yield of the target product and consequently high costs associated with the use of inefficient catalysts. The practice allows to efficiently conduct the process of selective hydrogenation of ethane-ethylene fraction, thereby obtaining a higher yield of ethylene and more rationally use the resources of the enterprise. In addition, UСT solves the problem of dependence of Russian petrochemical companies on imported catalysts, which allows to ensure uninterrupted supplies, high product quality and boost the country's economy. The potential for export of manufactured chemical products is estimated as high. This is due to the fact that despite the complicated geopolitical situation and sanctions from Western countries, Russia has a considerable list of friendly and neutral states that need petrochemical catalysts. Increasing exports is one of the main directions of the company's development for 2024-2025. According to the analysis of key trading partners based on 2 groups of indicators (import demand for goods in the country and attractiveness for cooperation with Russia) strategically important export directions were identified: such countries as China, Belarus, India, Kazakhstan, Iran and Uzbekistan can become important points of product sales and international cooperation.

Estimated duration of implementation

The time of product implementation depends on the customer's company, among other things. On average, the catalyst manufacturing and delivery time varies from a couple of weeks to several months (depending on the batch). Implementation of the practice at the company after delivery of the product takes only a couple of hours to a day, depending on the labor productivity at the customer's company.

Implementation geography

At the moment, the practice has been implemented at various subsidiaries of the largest petrochemical companies in Russia: Nizhny Novgorod region, Stavropol Territory, Perm Territory, Republic of Tatarstan. Despite this, the company is preparing to replicate this practice and apply it both in Russia and abroad.

Description of competitive advantages

Practice is a brand pyrolysis fraction hydrogenation catalyst with variation of characteristics is used for selective hydrogenation of pyrolysis fraction, polishing purification of pyrolysis fractions before polymerization. Competitive advantage of the catalyst for selective hydrogenation of pyrolysis fractions is in improved qualitative and technical and economic parameters, which replaces imported analogues, and provides more efficient operation due to the use of raw materials with a combination of specialized solutions of reagents of rare/rare-earth and precious metals on the basis of the existing enterprise LLC MC “UCT”. The catalyst allows customers to improve safety, stability and efficiency of technological processes, as well as to gain additional profit by improving quality indicators and reducing operating costs. Advantages of the catalyst for selective hydrogenation of the ethane-ethylene fraction: stable purification from acetylene, high selectivity and minimal rehydration of ethylene into ethane, high activity – the inlet temperature at the beginning of the cycle is 35-40 ° C, stable operation under conditions of CO fluctuations, resistance to catalytic poisons in raw materials.
