AMBER™
AMBER™ catalysts are frequently used, high-quality catalysts from the Ketjen portfolio and are manufactured using ADM-20 matrix technology, which is common to its high-accessibility catalysts. AMBER™ is the benchmark for maximum transportation fuels against which all other gas oil catalysts are measured.
In addition, AMBER™ catalysts are solutions for non-residue processing refiners that require both excellent bottoms conversion and the gasoline and olefin selectivity that these catalysts offer.
AMBER™ catalysts possess high-accessibility (high mass transfer, as measured by the Ketjen Accessibility Index, KAI). Ketjen FCC catalysts feature the highest KAI in the industry. The high-accessibility structure offers large heavy-feed molecules quick access to the active sites and facilitates rapid egress of the products without secondary reactions (Figure 1).
AMBER™ catalysts contain specialty ADZ zeolites with high activity and exceptional hydrothermal stability. The advanced matrix technology (ADM-20) in AMBER™ catalysts protects the zeolite, thereby enhancing its activity and enabling selective cracking of bottoms to the lowest possible levels.

Unprecedented upgrading of residue in FCC. FCC units using conventional FCC catalysts are severely limited when diffusion constraints control conversion and bottoms upgrading, for example, in heavy-feed and/or short-contact-time operations. Even with high catalyst addition rates, bottoms conversion, ...

Optimal SOx reduction without rare earth for partial- and full-burn units. SOx reduction additives are designed to capture and remove the oxidized sulfur compounds present in the FCC unit regenerator and release them in the FCC riser. On release, the sulfur exits the FCC unit as hydrogen sulfide, along ...

DuraZOOM™ - industry-leading olefin and octane enhancement
DuraZOOM additive is the latest in a long line of light olefins and octane enhancers manufactured by Ketjen. ZSM-5 additives were developed by Mobil Oil Corporation and first used in 1983 as octane enhancers necessitated by the phasing out of tetraethyl lead. Since then, their use has grown enormously ...
