FCC — Vanadium Traps
Vanadium-trapping additives support metals management in FCC operations where feed contaminants affect the catalyst. Selection is based on vanadium loading, the catalyst system and operating conditions.
Discuss your application
Application and function
Treatment of FCC feed is intended to mitigate adverse vanadium effects on the catalyst. Address the defined metals-related problem within the unit’s catalyst-management program.
Formulation and delivery characteristics should be reviewed with feed and catalyst information, current catalyst additions and other additives.
Information for selection
- Vanadium analyses for feed and available catalyst samples
- Catalyst condition, addition history and operating trends
- Feed variability, injection facilities and existing metals treatment
Evaluation and technical review
Agree treatment-evaluation indicators before a monitored trial. Record changes in catalyst, feed and operating conditions when reviewing the result.
Effects on conversion, product distribution and catalyst consumption require an application-specific comparison.
Discuss product selection
Share the application, operating conditions and requirements that matter to your evaluation. Product-specific properties, use guidance and handling information are provided in the relevant product data sheet and safety data sheet.
