DEV-50™ Medium Purity Support Media
Medium Purity
An upgraded support media with approximately 50% Alumina content, offering a balance between enhanced mechanical strength and improved chemical resistance.
Key Features
- Enhanced Durability: Significantly higher crush resistance than standard balls, making it suitable for deeper beds or higher-density catalysts.
- Low Silica Leaching: Lower silica content compared to standard balls helps minimize the risk of downstream silica fouling in sensitive heat exchangers and turbines.
- Chemical Stability: Better resistance to acidic and alkaline environments, ensuring the support media does not degrade or contaminate the catalyst.
- Refinery Grade: Often used in hydroprocessing and reforming units where moderate severity conditions are present.
Application Areas
- Secondary support layers or environments requiring higher mechanical integrity and chemical purity.
