BASF CL-750 is particularlyappropriate for use in vapor phasechloride traps in catalytic reformingprocesses where optimum HCladsorption capacity and minimizationof polymer (“gum”) formation isdesirable. The high macroporosity ofBASF CL-750 improves diffusion ratesto assure high HCl adsorptioncapacity.
Liquid naphtha reformate streamsoften contain sufficientamounts of HClwhich cause corrosion and NH4Clplugging problems in heat exchangers,pumps, compressors and stabilizer towers. BASF CL-750 is an excellentHCl scavenger for these streams atboth ambient and elevatedtemperatures. The use of BASF CL-750chloride adsorbent allows continuousoperation without the problemsassociated with water washing ofchloride deposits in process equipment.
With its superior adsorption capacityand high porosity, CL-750 is appropriatefor the removal of HCl and free chlorideions from a variety of vapor and liquidphase streams in numerous petrochemicalproduction processes
