Refining Catalysts
Shell Catalysts & Technologies supplies catalysts for the critical processes that use hydrogen to upgrade and add value to refinery streams and final products. Our portfolio includes hydroprocessing catalysts for a wide variety of applications throughout the refinery, from ultra-low-sulphur diesel (ULSD) production to tail-gas treatment. We are heavily involved with hydrocracking, where we provide both feed pretreatment and cracking catalysts. We lead the industry in catalysts that are used for residue upgrading in both fixed- and ebullated-bed reactors.
Renewables Catalysts
Shell Catalysts & Technologies鈥� patented portfolio of renewables catalysts can help refiners unlock next-level performance from their hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) units.
Catalyst Grading & Poison Control
Shell Catalysts & Technologies offers a portfolio of protective solutions to reduce the effects of contaminants that can negatively impact ROI.
Naphtha Catalysts
We determine the best reactor loading strategies based on naphtha composition and design of individual process unit to achieve results.
Distillate Hydrotreating Catalysts
Distillate hydrotreating can help refiners achieve complex demands set out by clean fuels legislation through effective hydrodesulphurisation (HDS).
Hydrocracking Catalysts
Shell Catalysts & Technologies offers leading-edge hydrocracking catalysts coupled with outstanding technical service.
Residue Upgrading Catalysts
Dealing with the bottom of the barrel is high on the refining industry鈥檚 agenda. Effective use of catalysts is key.
Base Oils
Shell Catalysts & Technologies has a proven record of delivering high yields and enhanced quality lubricant base oils.
Tail Gas Treating Catalysts
Refineries have reported lower operating costs, extended cycle lengths and reduced pressure drops as a result of installing Shell catalysts.
FCC Pretreat Catalysts
FCC Pretreat catalysts and unit designs help refiners develop solutions that will maximise their facility鈥檚 profitability within their specific constraints.
Fluidised Catalytic Cracking (FCC) Pretreatment Fact Sheet
High-performance catalysts and diagnostic-driven system design tailored to meet refiners' operating objectives.
Hydrocracker Revamp Scenario
Shell Catalysts & Technologies has worked with refiners worldwide to help them increase capacity, adjust conversion to impact yield profile, and extend cycle length by increasing crude flexibility or mitigating fouling.
High Activity, Low-Temp Catalysts
Operators are challenged by increasingly stringent emissions and energy consumption mandates. In order to comply with these standards, refineries and gas plants must leverage best-in-class catalytic solutions.
