![]() ![]() Thanks to Shell’s sophisticated product technology, we were able to achieve early normalisation of the ethylene plant. Ha Chang-Soo, HPC Commissioning Team Leader of Hyundai Chemicals HPC Complex said, “We are very pleased to be able to successfully operate the acetylene reactor with Shell’s excellent catalysts and professional and dedicated technical support. The catalyst also boasts stability features which provide extra confidence in day-to-day operations. These features ensure ethylene producers can gain higher yield from excellent ethylene selectivity. The catalyst has proven to help provide reliable operation at multiple feed sources and various operating conditions. ![]() SC&T’s C2 FE selective hydrogenation catalyst was selected by Hyundai Chemicals for the core catalyst unit. It is capable of processing various feedstocks such as naphtha, treated deasphalted oil and refinery off-gas from Hyundai Oilbank’s existing refinery process. Located in Daesan, South Korea, the facility is Hyundai Chemicals’ first heavy-feed grassroot 750 kilotons per annum (KTA) ethylene cracker. The heavy-feed petrochemical complex (HPC), operated by Hyundai Chemicals, achieved a fast and successful startup in December 2021 by using Shell Catalysts & Technologies’ (SC&T) C2 FE selective hydrogenation catalyst.
