CARBODUMP®

CARBODUMP^® technology deagglomerates catalyst particles joined together by coke or other sticky matter through the adapted use of CO₂ cartridges. A rapid expansion of CO₂ gas in the clumps of agglomerated catalyst cause the particles to separate. CARBODUMP^® is safer, more efficient, and less time consuming than traditional deagglomeration techniques such as jackhammers or explosives.

CARBODUMP^® brings key improvements in catalyst unloading:

• Improved safety: minimize or eliminate inert entry
• Faster unloading: Clumped catalyst particles are deagglomerated and gravity discharged via dump nozzles
• Preserves catalyst: Maximizes catalyst recovery for regeneration
