Petroleum refining

OSG Corporation engages in extensive collaboration with renowned domestic research institutions, focusing on the research and development, industrial scaling-up, and manufacturing of petroleum refining catalysts. Their product range encompasses various catalysts for processes such as hydrorefining, hydrocracking, and hydrogenation protection, providing a multitude of grades that offer technological assurance for refining processes and a diverse selection of catalysts to oil refineries.

The company's hydrorefining catalysts primarily consist of sulfide catalysts based on molybdenum-cobalt, molybdenum-nickel, and tungsten-nickel, employing γ-alumina or γ-alumina with a slight addition of silica as the carrier. These catalysts typically take the form of small rods or beads, with some featuring unique rod shapes or toothed spherical designs. In addition, OSG supplies a variety of passivators, ceramic packing materials, and supporting materials. In recent years, the company has dedicated research to improving the hydrorefining catalysts, enhancing carrier pore distribution and impregnation techniques, which has led to increased activity and longevity of the catalysts. These advancements facilitate lower reaction temperatures, pressures, and hydrogen-to-oil ratios, ultimately reducing energy consumption in hydroprocessing units.

OSG's hydrocracking catalysts utilize precious metal palladium or sulfide compounds of molybdenum-nickel and tungsten-nickel as hydrogenation components, combined with amorphous silica-alumina and ultra-stable Y-type zeolites as cracking components. These catalysts find broad application in diesel hydrocracking and wax oil hydrocracking plants, significantly contributing to the reduction of crude processing and the enhancement of chemicals production for refining and chemical integration enterprises, thus boosting their market competitiveness.

The Direct Super-Catalytic Cracking technology for converting crude oil directly into olefins like ethylene and propylene employs crude oil as feedstock, bypassing several refining steps to shorten the processing chain. This results in substantial reductions in crude oil and energy consumption, boasting features such as a streamlined process, high efficiency, low emissions, and high yields of chemicals, yielding remarkable economic and social benefits with promising development prospects. OSG collaborates with CNOOC Tianjin Research Institute to develop and produce specialized BCC catalytic pyrolysis catalysts tailored for this advanced technology.
