At M Chemical Company, our advanced bed grading solutions deliver unparalleled efficiency and reliability. Our expertise in production, design and technical support of High Void Bed Grading solutions ensures optimal pressure drop relief and protection from foulants entering the reactor and maximizing the reactor run life.

Foulants enter the reactor in many forms and from many sources:

• – Iron scales and sulfides
• – Coke fines
• – Catalyst fines
• – Polymerized foulants
• – Sediment
• – Salts, etc.

Our shape optimized materials have optimum trapping volume for particulate contaminants from any feedstock while still providing superior flow distribution through the reactor.

Our Top Bed Loading designs are tailored to the specific contaminants and foulants entering the reactor as well as the reactor dimensions in order to maximize catalyst run life and eliminate the need for reactor skims prior to scheduled turnarounds.

In addition to our wide range of high void inert shapes, we offer a complete family of Active grading solutions for trapping or removing Arsine, Silica, Nickel, Vanadium, Mercury, Lead and other metal sulfides. We offer grading rings and trilobes in every size. Each product is tailored with the optimum activity, surface area, pore volume and shape to protect the main bed catalyst and optimize run life.

We also offer extensive post-mortem testing and evaluation of products used in the Top Bed Grading section. We can determine what foulants entered the reactor, we can evaluate the effectiveness of each product based on what it was able to trap and where it was loaded. As feedstocks change, loading schemes may need to change as well and understanding what is working and what did not work, from post mortem testing, allows the refiner and M Chemical to work together to optimize future loadings.

Whether your goal is to extend the run life of a Pressure Drop Limited reactor, or to have a wider selection of choices of products to load, or to simply reduce the cost spent on the Top Bed Grading section, M Chemical has the solution. Partner with us for your bed grading needs and experience exceptional pressure drop relief, enhanced reactor performance, and increased profitability. We will deliver the quality and reliability your operations demand. Contact us today to get started.
