Hydrodesulfurization Catalyst Market: Definition and Introduction
Hydrodesulfurization is a chemical process which is used to remove sulfur and sulfur compounds from refined petroleum end products, including petrol (gasoline), diesel, fuel oils and jet fuel. Hydrodesulfurization is also known as hydrotreating and is a chemical process which requires the presence of a catalyst. The Hydrodesulfurization Catalyst enables the hydrotreating process in petroleum refineries and natural gas processing plants. Using the Hydrodesulfurization Catalyst, the hydrotreating process removes excess sulfur from the petroleum refining by-products. The process of hydrodesulfurization takes place usually in a fixed bed type of reactor in a refining unit, at temperatures which range from 300 °C to 400 °C.
The hydrodesulfurization catalyst used for the process most commonly consists of a base that is impregnated with metals, such as molybdenum and cobalt. Many types of metals can perform the function of a Hydrodesulfurization Catalyst. However, the metals which are most active as a Hydrodesulfurization Catalyst are those which occur in the middle of the transition metal series of the periodic table. For example, Ruthenium disulfide is one of the most active Hydrodesulfurization Catalysts available. However, most of the hydrodesulfurization units in refining facilities use cobalt- and molybdenum disulfide-based Hydrodesulfurization Catalysts. Moreover, nickel- as well as tungsten-based Hydrodesulfurization Catalysts are also used, particularly in those hydrodesulfurization units which are requires to carry out the hydrodenitrification process. Metals and sulfides that act as Hydrodesulfurization Catalysts in a hydrotreating unit are typically based on support materials having greater surface areas. For example, alumina is a commonly used support for Hydrodesulfurization Catalyst.
