UOP Adsorbents in Petrochemical Production
For more than 50 years, UOP has been a global leader in supplying
technology and products to the olefins industry.
Today, we continue to lead the market with new innovations and improvements
on existing technology, products, and equipment. UOP is the world’s leading
licensor of propane dehydrogenation technology. Our Oleflex process facilitates
the production of more than two billion pounds of propylene per year, while
our molecular sieve desiccants are used by more than 75% of the ethylene producers
in the world. Our most recent innovations enable us to offer solutions in newest
areas of the olefins industry.
We can design adsorption systems, provide on-site service for your adsorbent
related problems, and supply you with the highest quality adsorbents, manufactured
and sourced globally to meet your specific needs. The purification of olefin
streams for polymer plant feedstocks is extremely demanding, requiring advanced
adsorbents and technology to protect polymerization catalysts and achieve the
highest grade of polyolefin products and properties.
You can rely on UOP's adsorbent products for effective dehydration of highly
reactive petrochemical streams from ethylene to styrene. The demanding requirements
of polymer grade monomer products can be met by using UOP's specialty adsorbents.
Our products can handle trace contaminant removal in many processes from regenerative
adsorbents for sulfur and nitrogen compounds to oxygenates and mercury, to
adsorbents for solvents and co-monomer steams, as well as non-regenerative
adsorbents for arsine and sulfur compounds.
UOP adsorbents have been commercially proven at facilities around the world.
All are rigorously designed to achieve long life and extensively tested to
ensure they are suitable for use in reactive streams.
