The Tech Inc. Fixed-Bed Catalyst Test Unit tests catalysts under controlled pressure, temperature and feed conditions in a tubular fixed-bed reactor. Refinery and petrochemical R&D centres use it to screen catalysts, measure activity and selectivity, and study ageing before scale-up. Micro-activity test (MAT) units for FCC catalysts and continuous fixed-bed units are built on the same platform.
