Balancing refining reliability and the low-carbon transition

Natural gas streams often carry sulfur and mercury. Left in, they damage equipment, put compliance at risk and harm the environment. In this episode, Nennette Richard-Jordan, Head of Sales- Refinery Catalysts of Clariant explains how the company’s high-performance catalysts and sorbents for fixed-bed reactors address that problem. She introduces Clariant and its gas processing setup, then covers the applications and customers it serves. She also walks through the ActiSorb™ GP series, which removes sulfur and mercury from natural gas-derived streams to meet industry standards. Listeners will learn what sets Clariant’s products apart and how its support, from research and application development to on-site service, helps operators get longer cycle times and the highest reliability.
