Regulatory and technology trends are influencing the refining catalyst industry. These trends are driving the demand for advanced catalyst supports. Sasol Chemicals produces high-quality alumina, silica-aluminas and shaped carriers which are widely used in various process formulations as catalyst supports or binders.
The key parameters of our high-purity materials, such as specific surface area, porosity, particle size and attrition resistance, can be fine-tuned through our unique and flexible production process to adapt to the needs of different catalyst carriers.

 

What Makes Our Offerings Unique?

Sasol Chemicals’ boehmites and calcined aluminas are extensively used as binders and refinery catalyst support applications. The flexibility of our production units allows us to provide fine-tuned dispersibility, porosity, surface area, particle size and attrition resistance.

Our SIRAL silica-alumina product range offers tunable acidity and medium to high porosity.

Sasol is a leading producer of high-quality oil-dropped alumina spheres and provides the shaping of zeolites as a tolling option.
