Alumax AL-99 is white fused alumina lumps are low in silica and iron oxides. The irregular shape of lumps creates a swirling gas flow with difficult flow paths to increase gas distribution, trap particulates and hence slows down pressure drop in the bed.
Alumax AL-99 white lumps have a high stability at increased temperatures with a very low impurity capacity.
Alumax AL-99 can be used as catalyst bed supports and/or toppings in many types of synthesis gas reformers, like pre-reformers, autothermal reformers, and secondary reformers as top grading and bed support media.
Alumax AL- 99 can work at 1800 deg C.
