Applications
Edible Oils & Fats
Edible Oils & Fats Hydrogenation
Hydrogenation of edible oils is used to modify saturation and melting behaviour of triglyceride-based feedstocks.
SCAT® supported nickel catalysts are applied where consistent activity and stable filtration are critical to downstream processing.
Typical feedstocks
- Palm stearin
- Vegetable oils such as soybean, rapeseed and mustard oils
Recommended catalyst grades
SCAT® 2215
Supported nickel catalyst developed for hydrogenation of triglycerides and vegetable oils.
Focus
- High hydrogenation activity
- Stable operation across oil feedstocks
- Consistent filtration behaviour
Recommended catalyst grades
SCAT® 2203
Sulfided supported nickel catalyst developed for controlled partial hydrogenation of triglyceride-based feedstocks.
Focus
- Selective hydrogenation performance
- Controlled melting profile development
- Stable operation in partial hydrogenation processes
