GCat-oxy (oxychlorination catalyst)
A copper (Cu) based catalyst is normally used in oxychlorination process. Copper chloride (CuCl2) is used as catalyst in oxychlorination reaction of hydrocarbons. It can be used in fixed or fluidized bed reactors. GAHARCERAM provide different grades of oxychloronation catalysts for various operating conditions
GCat – 100 Series(SRU)
We provides various catalysts for catalytic section of Sulfur Recovery Unit. The product line includes activated alumina, titania, alumina/titania composite, and active bed supports
GCat – 140 Series (Tail Gas Treatment)
The hydrogenating catalysts used in SCOT contain nickel or tungsten on alumina support and the reaction takes place at 480-570°. GAHARCERAM provide high performance hydrogenating catalyst for this purpose
Catalysts for Critical
Process Applications.
Gaharceram supplies catalyst solutions for oxychlorination, sulfur recovery, and tail gas treatment applications. This page provides a compact technical overview of the main catalyst families and their intended process roles.
Three catalyst families for different process duties.
Catalyst selection depends on the chemistry of the process, reactor configuration, feed composition, operating conditions, and required performance. Gaharceram's catalyst portfolio includes materials for oxychlorination service, the catalytic section of sulfur recovery units, and hydrogenation duty in tail gas treatment.
The sections below summarize the role of each family and use the same product images shown on the main Products page for a consistent visual experience across the website.
GCat-oxy — Oxychlorination Catalyst
Copper-based catalysts are commonly used in oxychlorination processes. Copper chloride (CuCl₂) serves as the active catalytic component in the oxychlorination of hydrocarbons and can be applied in fixed-bed or fluidized-bed reactor systems.
Gaharceram provides different grades of oxychlorination catalyst for varying operating conditions, allowing catalyst selection to be matched more closely to process requirements and reactor design.
GCat-100 Series — SRU Catalysts
The GCat-100 Series covers catalyst materials used in the catalytic section of sulfur recovery units. The product family includes activated alumina, titania, alumina/titania composite materials, and active bed supports.
These materials are intended for different duties within the SRU catalytic section, so the appropriate grade should be selected according to the process configuration, operating conditions, and performance objectives of the sulfur recovery system.
GCat-140 Series — Tail Gas Treatment
Hydrogenation catalysts used in SCOT tail gas treatment are described as containing nickel or tungsten on an alumina support. Their role is to support the reduction stage before downstream solvent treatment.
The source text for this product family states a reaction temperature of 480–570°. Gaharceram provides high-performance hydrogenation catalyst for this purpose, with final catalyst selection based on the actual unit design and operating conditions.
