17-23% Ceramic Inert Alumina Ball as Catalyst Bed Support Media

17-23% Ceramic Inert Alumina Ball as Catalyst Bed Support Media

Short Description:

Ceramic Balls (also known as support ball, inert ball and catalyst support media) were very important component in the catalytic process in the refinery, gas processing and petrochemical industry. Its main function is to act as packing material and at the same time to support the catalyst bed in order to prevent breakthrough or loss of catalyst or adsorbent materials downstream of the reactor vessels due to the high pressure and temperature inside the reactor vessels during the operation. Ceramic ball come up with a few different sizes, which are 1/8″, 1/4″, 3/8″, 1/2″, 3/4″, 1″, 1¼”, 1½”, 2″. The size was arranged layer by layer at the top and bottom of the vessel, with different sizes of ceramic ball.
Inert Ceramic ball are the most widely used support media in the world because of their excellent consistence and reliability. Products to these specifications are manufactured from very high quality chemical-porcelain clay materials, which has quite excellent stability, high mechanical strength and resistance to thermal shock, This makes them all ideal choice for support of all types of catalyst.

Application

Inert Ceramic (Porcelain) Balls as supporting carriers for catalysts, absorbents, as molecular sieves; to fill the reaction apparatus, they act as a distributor of reagents and coolant in the petrochemical and chemical industries; as grinding bodies for milling materials in ball mills when grinding and mixing chemicals, pharmaceuticals, dyes,grinding metal surfaces, grinding food raw materials in the food industry. The balls have extremely low water absorption (real <0.1%), high acid resistance (>99.6%), and a long service life subject to operating conditions. Porcelain balls are made of silicate (alumina) porcelain by powder compaction of the mass, molding, pulling through the mouthpiece, with diameters ranging from 3 mm to 50 mm. Other types of ceramic products can be made upon your request indicating he necessary technical data.
