Buyer's Digest

Use this page as a product-first sourcing checkpoint before sending an RFQ. Category: Reforming Catalysts. Confirm application fit, capacity, materials, destination, lead time and compliance requirements before comparing suppliers.

Original product description

RSR-101 and RSR-102 are solid, six-hole cylindrical catalysts designed for the steam reforming of light hydrocarbons. Listed feedstocks include natural gas, refinery gas, and liquefied gas.

The resulting gas can support hydrogen production and processes involving ammonia synthesis gas, methanol synthesis gas, carbonyl synthesis gas, or carbon monoxide. The two grades are assigned to different converter positions. RSR-101 is specified for the upper half and operates from 450 to 950°C.

RSR-102 is specified for the lower half and operates from 500 to 950°C. Both grades use a CaO-Al2O3 carrier, contain at least 12 wt% NiO, and have a stated bulk density of 0.8-0.9 kg/L. Their listed water-to-carbon ratio is 3.0-5.0 mol/mol, with a carbon space velocity of 500-2,000 h-1.

RSR-101 is dark gray in its oxidation state and measures 16 ±0.5 mm long with an external diameter of 10 ±0.5 mm. RSR-102 is light gray and measures 16.5 ±0.5 mm long with an external diameter of 16.5 ±0.5 mm. Both have a stated aperture of 4 ±0.4 mm.

Minimum radial crushing strength is 300 N per particle for RSR-101 and 400 N per particle for RSR-102. The reports high conversion activity, cracking capability for C2+ hydrocarbons, resistance to coking, feedstock adaptability, low equipment corrosion, and a small bed pressure drop.

It also reports an equilibrium-temperature distance below 5°C. Under the same device load, comparison with a reference catalyst reportedly produced an 8-10% reduction in catalyst bed layer, a 5-20°C lower outlet temperature, and a 0.2-0.5-unit reduction in operating water-to-carbon ratio.

Buyers should request the test basis and confirm whether these results apply to their feed composition, reformer design, operating pressure, throughput, and run conditions.

Procurement review should also confirm the required loading split between RSR-101 and RSR-102, catalyst quantity, activation or reduction procedure, loading method, pressure-drop calculation, allowable feed contaminants, and expected service life.

Packaging information in the available details is not fully consistent, so the final container type, net weight, labeling, and handling instructions should be agreed before ordering. The stated storage guidance is to keep the catalyst in a cool, ventilated, dry location away from moisture and fire sources.

The listed shelf life is 24 months.

Buyer tips

  • State quantity range and split-delivery needs before price comparison.
  • Add certification, material or inspection standards when they affect acceptance.
  • For time-sensitive projects, include target arrival date and destination.
  • For special applications, describe operating condition, installation environment and duty cycle.

FAQ

What should buyers confirm first?

Confirm application, specification, quantity, destination and lead-time requirements before comparing offers.

Can buyers inquire when specs are incomplete?

Yes. Add model, material, size, use case and inspection needs in the RFQ to make replies comparable.

How should this listing be evaluated?

Check title, category, specifications and related keywords against the actual sourcing requirement.
