Features Of Clariant HyProGen CB-2 Catalyst

  1. Highly selective hydrogenation catalyst optimized for continuous fixed-bed operation.

  2. Robust thermal and mechanical stability under industrial hydrotreating conditions.

  3. Low nickel leaching and excellent resistance to sulfur poisoning in feedstocks with moderate impurity levels.

  4. Controlled metal dispersion and tailored pore structure for enhanced mass transfer and reduced coking tendency.

  5. Pre-sulfided formulation enabling immediate start-up without on-site sulfidation.

Typical Applications Of Clariant HyProGen CB-2 Catalyst

  1. Hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of bio-based feedstocks including tall oil fatty acid (TOFA) and rosin derivatives.

  2. Selective saturation of unsaturated aldehydes and ketones in fine chemical intermediates.

  3. Refining of renewable diesel (HVO) streams to improve cold flow properties and oxidative stability.

  4. Upgrading of pyrolysis oils derived from lignocellulosic biomass.

  5. Hydrogenation of specialty esters and fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) for high-purity oleochemicals.
