Application of activated alumina in the field of catalyst support

2025-12-18

In today's petrochemical, chemical processing, and environmental protection industries, the performance and stability of catalysts directly determine production efficiency and operating costs. As an important functional material, activated alumina, with its excellent physical structure and chemical stability, has become one of the most widely used materials in the field of catalyst supports.

As a professional alumina material manufacturer, Zibo Xiangrun Environmental Engineering Co., Ltd. has long been committed to providing global customers with high-quality activated alumina and catalyst carrier solutions.

Activated alumina is prepared through a precisely controlled heat treatment process, resulting in a high specific surface area and porous structure, which gives it significant advantages in catalytic reactions. Its core advantages as a catalyst support include:

* Large specific surface area, which facilitates the uniform dispersion of active components

* Excellent high-temperature resistance, maintaining structural stability under high-temperature reaction conditions

* High mechanical strength, suitable for industrial reactors such as fixed-bed and packed-bed reactors

* Good chemical stability, exhibiting good tolerance to acids, alkalis, and reaction byproducts.

For this reason, activated alumina is widely used in various catalytic systems, including hydrogenation, dehydrogenation, desulfurization, dechlorination, and oxidation reactions.

Typical applications in petrochemical and chemical production:

In oil refining and petrochemical plants, activated alumina catalyst supports are commonly used for:

Hydrorefining and desulfurization units

Removal of sulfur, chlorine, and trace impurities

Catalytic purification of chemical raw materials

Environmental catalysis and tail gas treatment processes

Its stable pore structure ensures uniform distribution of active metal components on the support surface, effectively improving catalytic efficiency and extending catalyst lifespan.
