LEADING CATALYST DEVELOPMENT SERVICES COMPANY
Our catalyst development services build on a foundation of catalyst development over the 30-year history for both monolith-based and particulate-based catalysts, as well as PGM and base-metal catalysts.
Catalyst Development with Applied Catalysts
Identifying the best catalyst for a chemical process is a daunting task. Applied Catalysts has a mission of helping those without a historical database of catalysts and performance data. A combination of catalysis experience, investment in testing and characterization tools, and leveraged resources have been organized to help customers transition from lab-scale to commercial-scale chemical processes.
We have developed catalysts for hydrogenation and other reductive processes, selected proprietary chemistries of customers, and emission control catalysts.
01
Our Process for Catalyst Testing
Applied Catalysts select from internal and Industry catalysts to meet the customer’s need. Often, an improved catalyst is needed, and we have a history of catalyst development and are ready to develop new catalysts for your application.
Our facilities include a wide variety of equipment for catalyst preparation and scale-up, including lab-scale, semi-pilot, and show-tube scale reactors ready for use.
Combining our testing services with our catalyst development and engineering services accelerates project success and maximizes value creation for you.
02
How Do Our Catalyst Development Services Benefit You?
Applied Catalysts has experience in modifying catalyst formulations and properties to rapidly reach performance goals. The improvements are designed so they can be implemented at the production scale.
Our capabilities can be leveraged, saving significant R&D and engineering infrastructure. We have developed these resources over many years of similar projects.
Implementing catalyst development technology rapidly enables commercialization and maximizes the NPV created by implementing the developed catalysts.
03
Problems Solved by Catalyst Testing
It is not common to have an organization that spans the catalyst development process from lab scale to pilot scale to commercial production. Building such a capability delays time to market and may not be cost-effective compared to working with Applied Catalysts, where the resources have been developed over years of similar projects.
Implementing catalyst development technology rapidly enables rapid commercialization and maximizes the NPV created by implementing the developed catalysts.
