A look inside a reactor with Haldor Topsoes Scale Catcher installed_

Reactor internals overview

Many refiners know that it is important to have the best catalyst to ensure optimal performance; however, only few recognize that it is equally important to have the best reactor internals to ensure the best possible conditions for the catalytic reactions in your reactor.

Topsoe’s comprehensive range of reactor internals allows you to realize your reactor’s full potential by optimizing your process with intelligently designed reactor internals.

Our seven 7 categories cover the entire reactor

Inlet diffuser

Our Inlet Diffusers are optimized and customized for every unit, taking into account all your reactor flow parameters and reactor geometry.

Scale catcher

A common problem in hydroprocessing reactors, is pressure drop build-up caused by various particles plugging the catalyst bed.

Distributor tray

Our Vapor Lift Distributor Tray (VLT) ensures uniform distribution of liquid and gas over the entire cross section area of the catalyst bed.

Catalyst support

Our Catalyst Support is designed to support the combined weight of the catalyst, support material and oil. It can also withstand pressure drop over the catalyst bed during the entire catalyst ...

Quench mixer

Our Quench Mixer ensures efficient mixing of catalyst bed effluents from both above and from the cold quench stream.

Redistribution tray

Our Redistribution Tray ensures uniform redistribution of the mixer effluents to the catalyst bed below.

Outlet collector

Our Outlet Collector ensures even flow distribution in the bottom bed to maximize catalyst utilization and prevents bed migration to downstream piping and equipment.
