    · Methanol production per cubic meter of catalyst ranks among the highest records in the world for coal-based million-ton methanol plants

    · With the integrated solution of Clariant's fine desulfurization catalyst and methanol synthesis catalyst, the catalyst service life is close to 4 years

    The extended service life of  the catalyst avoids additional maintenance cycles, realizes a considerable increase in methanol production, and achieves good economic benefits

    · 

    Shanghai, November 16, 2020 - Clariant's MegaMax 700 catalyst achieved record performance in the methanol synthesis unit of Zhongtian Hechuang Energy Co.
    ,


    Ltd.


    "We are extremely proud of the performance of our MegaMax methanol synthesis catalyst," said Chen Zhipeng, vice president of Clariant's catalyst business in China


    .


    Chu Xiaohua, general manager of the chemical branch of Zhongtian Hechuang Energy Co.
    , Ltd.
    , said: "Clariant's catalysts exceeded expectations, significantly optimized our process and profitability, and further consolidated our competitive advantage in the industry.
    We look forward to Clariant's performance.
    The next generation of MegaMax catalysts can achieve even better results


    .


    Methanol is an important intermediate product produced by Zhongtian Hechuang Company.
    The use of ActiSorb S2 and ActiSorb S6 refined desulfurization systems has greatly benefited the company, which can keep the sulfur content at the outlet of the desulfurization unit below 10 ppb, preventing downstream methanol The life and performance of synthesis catalysts are affected by fluctuations in upstream sulfur content


    .


    The actual operating performance of the two methanol plants exceeded the designed capacity by 110%, and the cumulative total methanol output was as high as 13.
    2 million tons during the service life of the catalyst


    .


    MegaMax 700 maintained stable high performance throughout its service life until it was replaced by Clariant's next-generation methanol synthesis catalyst, MegaMax 800, in July 2020, and it was successfully started up


    .


    Founded in 2007, Zhongtian Hechuang Energy Co.
    , Ltd.
    is one of the largest coal chemical companies in China
