Grace Davidson’s NEKTOR™ catalyst recognised with award
Grace Davison, an operating segment of W. R. Grace & Co, has won the Downstream Technology of the Year Award at the Middle East Downstream Week 2011 conference.
The prize was awarded in recognition of the impact that its NEKTOR™ fluid cracking catalysts have had in helping refiners to upgrade the bottom of the oil barrel into transportation fuels, to meet worldwide demand for gasoline and diesel.
Shawn A. Abrams, Vice President and General Manager, Grace Davison Refining Technologies, commented:
‘We are pleased to accept this award, which recognises Grace's long term commitment to the research and development of innovative products that meet the continuing challenges of the global petroleum refining industry.’
André Lanning, Director Marketing and Business Development, Grace Davison Refining Technologies, added:
‘The NEKTOR™ catalyst allows refiners to process additional feed or heavier feed in their FCC unit through the use of a highly functionalised matrix and a hydrothermally stable and metals tolerant zeolite. NEKTOR™ catalysts can also allow refiners to upgrade more of their feedstock to valuable transportation fuels.’
