Clariant MetaMax Catalyst

Clariant MetaMax Catalyst is a high-performance hydroprocessing catalyst series designed for deep desulfurization and denitrogenation in refinery units. Featuring advanced nickel-molybdenum active phases on tailored alumina supports, it delivers superior activity, selectivity, and stability under severe operating conditions. Widely applied in diesel hydrotreating and FCC pretreat applications, MetaMax ensures consistent product quality and extended cycle lengths while reducing hydrogen consumption and operational costs.

Features Of Clariant MetaMax Catalyst

  1. Highly selective for low-temperature methanol synthesis under industrial pressure conditions.

  2. Exceptional long-term stability and resistance to sintering and sulfur poisoning.

  3. Optimized copper–zinc–alumina composition with proprietary structural promoters.

  4. Reduced activation time and lower pre-reduction temperature versus conventional Cu/ZnO/Al₂O₃ catalysts.

  5. Consistent performance across varying feed gas compositions, including CO₂-rich syngas streams.

Typical Applications Of Clariant MetaMax Catalyst

  1. Methanol production in large-scale single-train and multi-train ammonia–methanol integrated plants.

  2. Renewable methanol synthesis from green hydrogen and captured CO₂.

  3. Small-to-medium scale modular methanol units for distributed chemical manufacturing.

  4. CO₂-to-methanol conversion in carbon capture and utilization (CCU) facilities.

  5. Hybrid syngas upgrading where feed contains elevated CO₂ or fluctuating H₂/CO ratios.
