An operations manager from a European natural gas processing plant contacted us. “Our plant currently uses ordinary ceramic support balls as the bottom packing for the desulfurization tower. We have two thorny issues: first, the packing is severely damaged under high pressure, causing a continuous increase in tower pressure drop, requiring annual shutdowns for maintenance; second, the acidic environment corrodes the packing, causing media contamination.” The client learned that Zibo Xiangrun has specialized alumina ceramic balls for packing and inquired whether our alumina ceramic balls could simultaneously meet the three requirements of high strength, corrosion resistance, and reduced pressure drop. Our answer was: Of course!
Why are alumina ceramic balls the ideal choice for packing materials?
High mechanical strength and wear resistance: Zibo Xiangrun's alumina ceramic balls are sintered using high-purity raw materials and advanced processes. They can withstand extremely high bed pressure and severe material erosion, greatly extending replacement cycles and reducing losses.
Excellent chemical inertness: They exhibit excellent corrosion resistance to most acidic, alkaline media and organic solvents, ensuring that process media are not contaminated and guaranteeing product purity.
Outstanding thermal stability: They can withstand drastic temperature changes without cracking due to thermal stress, ensuring stable operation of high-temperature or variable-temperature processes.
Uniform size and smooth surface: We offer a variety of precision-graded sizes from millimeters to inches, ensuring uniform packing bed packing and stable porosity. This effectively reduces system pressure drop, improves mass transfer efficiency, and ultimately achieves energy savings and reduced consumption.
The specific parameters of Zibo Xiangrun's alumina ceramic balls are as follows. CBSP-XR3015 ceramic balls are widely used as bottom packing materials in hydrocracking units, refining units, catalytic reforming units, and isomerization units in petrochemical plants, chemical fiber plants, alkylbenzene plants, ethylene plants, and other factories. They also serve as supporting and covering materials for catalysts, molecular sieves, desiccants, etc., within reactors, and as tower packing.
