Hydrogenation
Topsoe's research combines the know-how from refinery hydroprocessing and natural gas hydrogenation to optimise hydrogenation catalysts for deep desulphurisation, and mono- as well as di-olefin hydrogenation for natural gas, refinery gas and naphtha processes.
Absorption
Removal of trace elements, especially sulphur and chloride, is extremely important to avoid poisoning and deactivation of downstream catalysts. We tailor-make sulphur absorbents for different feedstocks and sulphur types and have a specialised laboratory section for handling and analysing sulphur compounds in the parts per million to parts per billion range.
