Clariant launches new propane dehydrogenation catalyst

The new catalyst delivers greater selectivity and up to 20% longer life. Thanks to its increased productivity, a typical 600 000 tpy PDH facility could realise up to US$20 million in additional profits over the life of the catalyst, providing a compelling value proposition for customers seeking to maximise returns.

Together with Clariant’s digital service portal CLARITY^TM, customers can further improve catalyst-related plant performance with 24/7 access to their real-time catalyst performance data, advanced visualisation, analysis, and monitoring tools. The service is offered across all Clariant catalyst applications, and has helped optimise plant performance parameters regarding efficiency, sustainability, and safety.

Jens Cuntze, Business President Catalysts at Clariant, commented: “With the introduction of CATOFIN 312, we have accomplished yet another key milestone in our state-of-the-art catalyst technology. Our firm commitment to innovation allows us to further increase performance of our catalysts for our customers in the propylene industry."
