Natural gas steam reforming catalyst LF962U

1 Characteristics

LF962U is a steam reforming catalyst with nickel as active component, presintered alumina or calcium aluminate as carrier. Its performances stand at the international advanced level, and  it’s in the  leading position in the domestic industry.
■ Excellent activities and stability, especially high activity at high temperature;
■ High mechanical strength and structure stability;
■ Honeycomb structure design, with big effective surface area and high macro-activity of the catalyst, and low bed pressure drop;
■ Can be reduced directly in the reformer by using feedstock gases;
■ High resistance to carbon deposition by using rare earth metal as modifier.

2 Applications and operating conditions

The catalyst is used in the production of hydrogen, ammonia syngas, methanol syngas and oxo-syngas by using natural gas and/or oil field gas as feedstock. It can be loaded in the upper section of the reformer in combination with LF963L in lower section, or solely loaded in the whole tubes. 
■ Temperature:          450～950℃ 
■ Pressure:             Atmospheric～6.0MPa
■ Steam/carbon ratio:    ≥2.5 (for high-CO syngas, can be lower than 2.5) 
■ Carbon space velocity:  600～2000h-1
