Product Introduction
A918 sulfur recovery activated alumina catalyst is a synthetic high-performance active alumina catalyst engineered with superior anti-sulfation poisoning resistance, outstanding organic sulfur hydrolysis efficiency and exceptional thermal stability.
Verified by full-scale industrial field trials, this catalyst delivers remarkable high catalytic activity and robust crushing strength, supporting continuous stable operation for 3 to 5 years.
Under identical or comparable process parameters, replacing bauxite catalyst with A918 lifts overall sulfur recovery rate from 80–85% up to 94–96%. It achieves complete 100% COS hydrolysis and cuts residual sulfur content in tail gas to less than 1%.
Boasting a specific surface area of 320 m²/g, A918 activated alumina catalyst meets world-class advanced standards across all technical performance indicators.

Application
The Claus process is the mainstream technology in sulfur recovery industry, converting hydrogen sulfide into elemental sulfur and water. Sour natural gas contains high levels of hydrogen sulfide. If burned directly as fuel, sulfide pollutants will escape, causing air pollution and severe environmental damage. Maximizing sulfur recovery from sour gas has become an essential global industrial demand.
Al₂O₃ is the most commonly adopted catalyst for Claus process. It boasts abundant surface active sites that adsorb H₂S and SO₂, driving their reaction to produce elemental sulfur.
Acid gas streams contain various sulfur compounds such as H₂S, COS and CS₂. Even if these organosulfur substances are not present in raw feed, burning H₂S with CO₂ or hydrocarbons will generate COS and CS₂ byproducts. Full conversion of these components is vital to secure high sulfur recovery rate. Their decomposition proceeds far more slowly than the H₂S-SO₂ Claus reaction, hence a high-activity catalyst is required. Sulfation poisoning is another critical issue, which reduces specific surface area and leads to rapid catalyst deactivation.
Our high-performance sulfur recovery activated alumina catalyst is perfectly suited for Claus units in natural gas plants, oil refineries, coking plants and tail gas treatment facilities.
