UOP GB-620 Adsorbent

short description:

Description

UOP GB-620 adsorbent is a spherical adsorbent designed, in its reduced state, to remove oxygen and carbon monoxide from hydrocarbon and nitrogen process streams. Features and benefits include:

Optimized pore size distribution leading to higher adsorbent capacity.
High degree of macro-porosity for rapid adsorption and short mass transfer zone.
High surface area substrate to extend bed life.
Can achieve ultra-low level impurity removal due to active component on adsorbent.
Low reactivity components to minimize oligomer formation.
Available in steel drums.

Product Detail

Product Tags

GB-620 adsorbent is a high-capacity adsorbent designed to eliminate O2 and CO to non-detectable concentrations <0.1 ppm in gas and liquid

streams. Engineered to operate at a wide range of temperatures to remove

O2 and CO contaminants, GB-620 adsorbent protects high activity polymerization catalysts.

GB-620 adsorbent is shipped in the oxide form and is designed to be reduced in-situ in the adsorbent vessel. The product is formulated to be cycled from oxide to a reduced form, making it a regenerative oxygen scavenger.

Safe loading and unloading of the adsorbent from your equipment is imperative to ensure you realize the full potential of GB-620 adsorbent. For proper safety and handling, please contact your UOP representative.
