Low Temperature CO Oxidation

UOP’s unique carbon monoxide (CO) catalyst makes it possible to manufacture personal protection equipment that is more lightweight and compact than traditional hopcalite-based systems. These factors improve the overall effectiveness and usability of such equipment against acute CO poisoning.

This revolutionary UOP catalyst is made from an alternative material that is effective at ambient temperatures and at high ambient moisture present in fires and many other hazardous situations. Because of these unique properties, UOP’s catalytic element does not need protection by a layer of adsorbent material.

To find out how UOP’s advanced catalysts can help you optimize the design of your personal protection equipment, contact us today using our information request form.
