Cyclohexane has a fundamental role in the petrochemical chain: produced by benzene hydrogenation, cyclohexane is an intermediate product for Nylon production.
Cyclohexane Process
The Axens Cyclohexane process is the industry’s benchmark for the production of high purity Cyclohexane by benzene hydrogenation.
The process is combining two steps:
A liquid phase hydrogenation, for an optimal control of exothermicity and selectivity at the lowest investment;
A fixed catalyst bed reactor to meet the most severe Cyclohexane product specifications.
Axens Cyclohexane Production Catalysts come as a support to the Cyclohexane process, and allow the production of high purity cyclohexane by benzene hydrogenation. The high catalyst activity ensures the complete conversion of benzene.
A modularization strategy offers superior benefits versus on-site manufacturing. During the last 40 years, Axens has supplied over 500 modular units, both onshore and offshore, providing tailor-made designs according to client project specifications.
Designed for all Axens technologies, dedicated to operators & engineers, Axens offers customized training solutions to all our licensees, covering the whole range of Axens technologies.
Axens is fully committed to be your partner and provide assistance and support during your project lifecycle, from conception to start-up & running operations.
