Sulfur oxide additives are typically based on hydrotalcite or magnesium aluminate spinel-type structures. Magnesium alumina is the pickup agent present in the most effective SOx additives on the market; therefore, to optimize SOx reduction, it is critical to maximize the amount of the critical magnesium component in the fluid catalytic cracking unit (FCCU) in an efficient and cost-effective way.
According to Hydrocarbon Processing’s Construction Boxscore Database, nearly 150 new projects have been announced in the downstream processing industries this year.
If chemical companies want to remain competitive and move forward in a changing world, they must rapidly adopt innovative technologies.
