With Topsoe's HyOctane™ catalysts for ultra-low sulfur, high octane gasoline
FCC gasoline post-treatment
Topsoe's HyOctane™ catalysts
Do you ever wonder why there is so little competition in the FCC gasoline post-treatment catalyst market? Well, we did, and now there’s a better choice.
Thanks to Topsoe’s series of HyOctane™ catalysts, you can now squeeze more sulfur and greater margins out of your FCC gasoline post-treatment unit.
The optimized activity and selectivity of the HyOctane™ catalysts provide ultra-low levels of sulfur – while keeping octane numbers high.
Independent testing shows that HyOctane™ catalysts deliver higher hydrodesulfurization (HDS) activity and lower octane losses than competitive catalysts on the market today. Also, the catalysts have already proven their performance in a number of industrial units. HyOctane™ catalysts are in operation in several Prime-G+® units and SCANFining™ units producing Ultra Low Sulfur Gasoline (<10 wt ppm). The feedback from the industry is very positive and refiners are selecting HyOctane™ catalysts for second cycles after their first experience.
You will find a HyOctane™ catalyst for your selective hydrogenation unit (SHU) reactor, your main bed HDS reactor and your final mercaptan polishing reactor.
The catalysts in the HyOctane series are TK-703 HyOctane™, TK-710 HyOctane™, and TK-747 HyOctane™.
HyOctane™ advantages:
Superior activity for sulfur removal
Low octane loss
Stable operation allowing for longer cycle lengths
More than 99.9 wt% naphtha yield
Higher margins from your unit

Squeeze more value out of your FCC gasoline
As sulfur legislations tighten, it becomes more difficult for refiners to meet the specifications from their FCC gasoline post-treatment units. Particularly the octane number poses challenges, since some olefins are simultaneously being hydrogenated. The consequent loss of octane often prevents the refineries from achieving maximum value.
