Steam methane reforming catalysts

The steam methane reformer (SMR) is a critical unit on any hydrogen, ammonia and methanol plant. Selecting the right steam methane reforming catalyst is crucial for production rates, plant efficiency and the avoidance of unexpected downtime.

Johnson Matthey is home to the proven KATALCO™ QUADRALOBE™ range of reforming catalysts.

These catalysts are set apart by their ability to work on a wide range of feedstocks, ranging from natural gas to heavier hydrocarbons such as naphthas, whilst also offering low pressure drop and low tube wall temperatures.

They are made in alkalised or non-alkalised variants, with four pellet sizes, allowing for optimum reformer loading in your individual plant.
