Metalyst® and KALCAT® are Evonik’s premier brands for Raney-type catalysts. Invented nearly a century ago, these catalysts remain indispensable due to their versatility and reliability in hydrogenation and other applications. Over the past 80 years, Evonik has amassed extensive experience and knowledge, continuously developing and optimizing a portfolio of commercially available grades that cover a wide range of applications.
This webinar is designed for individuals with no or limited experience in working with Raney-type catalysts. We will provide a brief overview of the manufacturing process and key specification parameters to enhance your understanding of these catalysts.
When using Activated Metal Catalysts, it’s crucial to consider certain principles that apply regardless of the specific reaction in your application. We will discuss key topics that are often overlooked but are essential for choosing the right process design.
Additionally, we will explore the entire process beyond just the reaction in your hydrogenator. You will learn how to handle and use the catalyst safely, from weighing it on a lab scale for testing to later transferring it to a plant scale. We will also cover how to separate the catalyst from your product and explore possibilities for catalyst reuse. Finally, we will conclude with guidance on catalyst disposal.
Discover the technical advantages of Activated Metal Catalysts, which can lead to more efficient and cost-competitive commercial production compared to other powder-type catalysts.
