Catalyst Evaluation System

Catalyst Testing System – Precision Evaluation Platform for Catalytic Performance & Kinetics

Overview

The 촉매 테스트 시스템 is a high-precision, fully automated laboratory instrument designed to evaluate the activity, selectivity, stability, and lifetime of various catalysts under simulated real-world operating conditions. This system enables comprehensive analysis of catalytic processes such as VOC oxidation, NOₓ reduction, CO removal, hydrogenation, and catalytic cracking, making it an essential tool for catalyst manufacturers, environmental engineering firms, and R&D laboratories.

By simulating industrial gas streams—including varying concentrations of pollutants, temperature profiles, humidity levels, and flow rates—the system provides accurate, reproducible data on conversion efficiency, light-off temperature, deactivation kinetics, and regeneration behavior.

Ideal for developing and optimizing catalysts used in automotive exhaust treatment, industrial emission control, chemical synthesis, and energy conversion, this platform supports both fixed-bed and fluidized-bed configurations.

Case Study: VOC Oxidation Efficiency in Industrial Exhaust

An environmental technology company used our catalyst testing system to evaluate three commercial Pt-based catalysts for oxidizing benzene and toluene in paint manufacturing emissions. Results showed:

Catalyst A: 95% conversion at 400°C, light-off temperature: 320°C
Catalyst B: 90% conversion, light-off: 350°C
Catalyst C: 98% conversion, light-off: 310°C, stable over 100 hours

Based on these results, the client selected Catalyst C for their full-scale installation, achieving higher efficiency and longer service life while reducing operational costs by 25%.

This case highlights how the system enables data-driven decisions in catalyst selection and process design.
