PetroChina's catalysts become a bright spot in the export of refining and chemical high-tech products

The LZR-20PK catalyst independently developed by China Petroleum and Petrochemical Institute won the bid for the fourth time in the competition with a number of international companies in the international public bidding for catalytic cracking catalysts held by the Shymkent Refinery in Kazakhstan (hereinafter referred to as PKOP Refinery).
, which is of great significance for the market development, promotion and application of PetroChina's independent catalyst products in the refineries of countries along the "Belt and Road"
.

In the process of this round of catalyst bidding, the Institute of Petrochemical Engineering, China Petroleum Technology Development Co.
, Ltd.
and Lanzhou Petrochemical Company's Catalyst Division have seamlessly connected and cooperated closely
.
Relevant leaders of the Petrochemical Institute attached great importance to it, arranged deployments many times, coordinated and communicated through multiple channels, and guided the promotion of various matters in the catalyst business
.
In view of the high levels of heavy metals such as nickel, vanadium, iron and calcium in the feedstock oil of the catalytic cracking unit of the PKOP refinery, the technicians of the Petrochemical Institute adopted special alumina matrix materials, the third-generation anti-vanadium technology, new macroporous matrix materials, and enhanced catalyst acidity.
and other technologies, the LZR-20PK catalyst has been integrated and developed, with excellent catalyst performance.
During this round of bid evaluation, it has laid a solid foundation for bidding on the same stage with internationally renowned companies and achieving the first overall performance
.

The catalyst research, production, and sales teams have conducted in-depth discussions on on-site raw materials, operating conditions, and catalyst formulation optimization for many times, and put forward many constructive opinions
.
PetroChina Technology Development Co.
, Ltd.
actively communicates with customers to keep abreast of customer needs, local policy changes and other factors; Petrochemical Research Institute and Lanzhou Petrochemical make full use of advanced simulation software, give full play to their professional technical service advantages, and communicate with refinery customers through international long-distance video conferences.
