In what fields are inert porcelain balls used?

Petrochemical Industry:

Inert porcelain balls are used as catalyst carriers to provide adhesion surfaces for the catalyst, increase the contact area of the catalyst, and improve reaction efficiency and selectivity, such as catalytic cracking and hydrocracking processes in petroleum refining. As a filler in the reactor, it plays the role of supporting and covering the catalyst, buffering the liquid and gas into the reactor to the catalyst, protecting the catalyst, and improving the distribution of liquid and gas in the reactor, which can be applied to fixed bed reactors, fluidized bed reactors, etc. It is used for the separation and purification of gases and liquids, with flat surface and high porosity, and can provide a large number of active surfaces, thereby increasing the material transfer rate and improving the separation efficiency, such as in the distillation tower, absorption tower and other devices in the petrochemical production.

Fertilizer industry:

Inert porcelain balls In the production process of synthetic ammonia, urea and other fertilizers, inert alumina porcelain balls can be used in reactors, towers and other equipment, as supporting materials and fillers of catalysts, help to optimize reaction conditions, improve production efficiency and product quality.

Natural gas industry:

Inert porcelain balls can be used in natural gas purification devices, such as desulfurization, nitrogen removal and other processes, as fillers or catalyst carriers to help remove impurities and harmful substances in natural gas and improve the purity of natural gas.

Environmental protection:

In waste gas treatment, inert porcelain balls can be used as catalyst carriers to remove pollutants in waste gas, such as sulfur-containing gases, nitrogen oxides, etc., for example, in some industrial waste gas treatment projects. Used in sewage treatment to help filter and adsorb impurities and heavy metal ions in water.

Metallurgical Industry:

The inert porcelain ball is used in high temperature crucible, furnace, heat insulation material, etc., because of its high temperature resistance, wear resistance and good chemical stability, it can withstand the erosion of high temperature environment and slag. In the process of metal smelting, it can be used as a filler in some reactors or equipment to promote reaction and improve fluid distribution.

Power industry:

Inert porcelain balls can be used in power equipment, such as as insulation materials or fillers in some high temperature and high pressure environments.

Other Industries:

Inert porcelain balls also have certain applications in pharmaceutical and fine chemical industries, such as filling in the reactor in the pharmaceutical process, or as a catalyst carrier in fine chemical production.
