LD 465 is a very active palladium on alumina catalyst specially designed for hydrogenation of pyrolysis gasoline cuts. Its very open pore structure maximizes the efficiency of active palladium.
This catalyst is of particular choice for feedstock rich in styrene.
Used in first stage hydrogenation reactor, it stabilizes the py-gas. by diolefins selective hydrogenation. This hydrogenated pyrolysis gasoline is suitable for further hydrotreatment on CoMo catalysts, like HR 406.
