TK-6001 HySwell™

Ultra high-activity NiMo catalyst

Removes nitrogen and improves density

Maximizes volume swell

Ideal for hydrocracker pretreatment and ULSD production

An ultra high-activity catalyst for maximum volume swell

TK-6001 HySwell™ is our new ultra high-activity NiMo catalyst for maximum volume swell. TK-6001 HySwell™ is outstanding for use as a first-stage catalyst in hydrocracking units, where removal of nitrogen and density improvement of straight-run and cracked fractions in the VGO range is essential.

Furthermore, TK-6001 HySwell™ is the superior choice for high-severity ULSD hydrotreating units operating at medium to high pressure. TK-6001 HySwell™ is suitable for a broad range of straight-run and cracked distillate stocks.

Saturation of aromatics in high-pressure units

TK-6001 HySwell™ is especially suitable for saturation of aromatics in high-pressure units. Aromatic saturation is essential when cetane improvement, low aromatic content or high volume swell is desired.

TK-6001 HySwell™ is often loaded in combination with TK-611 HyBRIM™ for optimal utilization of catalyst activity, and for balancing the hydrogen consumption.

Application

Take a deeper look

Sustainable Aviation Fuel

As a direct replacement for conventional fuel, SAF is an easy decarbonization measure that will help the aviation industry decarbonize immediately.

Power-to-X

To lower emissions in energy-intensive industries and long-distance transportation, we need technologies such as electrolysis in Power-to-X processes technology.

Renewable fuels

Renewable fuels will help us decarbonize heavy-duty transportation, and we’ll need proven technologies for their production. Luckily, these already exist.

Hydrogen

The abundance of hydrogen coupled with its potential for sustainable methods of production, positions it as a promising solution in the global energy transition. 

Ammonia

Ammonia is considered a gamechanger in decarbonizing the maritime industry and other energy-intensive industries where direct electrification is not an option.
