VULCAN Series Base Metal Catalyst Applications
• Selective hydrogenation of di-olefin to mono-olefin
– pyrolysis gasoline
– Poly alpha olefins (PAO’s)
– DeFine units in LAB complexes
• De-hydrogenation of Paraffin's for LAB production
• Benzene to cyclohexane
• Nitrobenzene to aniline
• Main Oxo-Aldehyde hydrogenation to the alcohol
• ADN to HMDA
• Oxo-Alcohol polishing
• Solvents hydrogenation (removal of aromatics)
• Alpha methyl styrene hydrogenation to cumene
• Acetone to IPA
• Polyol Aminations
• Halogen exchange (Cl for F)
