Ammonia converter baskets S-200

Proven multibed radial flow converter design

Topsoe was the first technology licensor to introduce the multibed radial flow converter design, thereby improving conversion per pass compared to known technology.

The Topsoe S-200 ammonia synthesis converter is a two-bed radial flow converter with indirect cooling between the catalyst beds. Since the introduction of the S-200 converter type in 1976, it has been used in more ammonia plants than any other converter design, with more than 130 converters installed worldwide.

The S-200 concept can still be supplied to existing users of S-200 baskets and for new plants where the two-bed solution is the optimal choice.
